Hey guys, I need your help. I bought my daughter some of those "droid factory" 2 packs that were Wal-Mart exclusive for Christmas. The one with Plo Koon and R4-F5 has a problem. The wheel on R4-F5 in the middle pushes up inside the droid for standing. It appears to be made to pop back out for rolling around. However, after pushing the wheel inside, I can't get it come back out. There appears to be a button on top, but it does nothing. I checked the box thinking there may be some instructions or something, but nada. Is anybody familiar with this Astromech Droid mold that can tell me how to get the wheel to pop back out? Quote:

Collection Count: I don't know anymore... | I think you bought a swamped product, since the one described on the rebelscum photo archive is based on a different mold, where the middle leg is completely removable and roatating the dome raises the telescope instead of the mid. leg.

Anyways, rotate the dome clock wise to lower the leg and counter to raise it. It sounds like the one you got is based on Ep III one. Rebelscum.com: Star Wars Revenge of the Sith Photo Archives
It seems like you could of stripped the gear since you pushed the mid. leg in.
If you need to reach me (or if my pm box is full), send an email to maximumburn at gmail.

I tried turning it before, I just didn't turn it enough.
Thanks for the help guys. Quote:
