    Is there a good video that shows how to attach the backpack? I finally got my Omega and can't for the life of me get the backpack on. I watched TCPs video that shows attach at the front and one of the front vent parts is already showing a stress mark.

    Make sure that the folding grey parts that make up the tank sides are folded the correct way...they can be folded in either direction but only one way that allows the backpack to attach properly...

    Just learned the other day that his arms won’t point straight out. Kind of a bummer he can’t aim the cannon arm straight ahead without messing around w the elbow joint.

    I just put batteries in my Omega for the first time and all of the LEDs work perfectly except for the one in the chest. I don't imagine it is probably a simple fix. I am assuming a wire came lose somewhere or something like that. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone out there has had to open up the chest/main unit on theirs to fix the LED? I would love to hear any lessons learned before I go opening mine up. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

    And I apologize in advance if something like this has already been addressed earlier in the thread.

    My led in the left arm didn't work, so I have emailed Fanstoys post-sale service and asked for a replacement part, that's arrived after a couple of weeks and works perfectly.
    I can suggest you to ask for a replacement.

    Love the big guy in blue. Looks very cool but I barely have room for ft omega alone, can't double dip on this mold unfortunately.

    He's the same price shipped as omega, so definitely some good value there. Plus u get both parts immediately.hurray

    Probably missed a solution, but anyone have any suggestions for popping Omega's chest panel back open for transformation? Haven't been able to re-flip it since I first transformed the torso.

    The horizontal bar has a ridge on the bottom to help pull it out

    @Vwfan88 here is what I mean...the panels that make up the sides of the tank must be folded in on themselves so that the backpack sits properly:

    While I am being all helpful, if your Terminus Giganticus is a little wobbly in robot mode, tighten these four screws...those ratchets seem to become loose over time, and give the knee joints too much play.
