    Anyone else's order from PSX has the following tracker status for a few days? The longer tracking number from PSX (or the short one for that matter) isn't showing up on USPS tracking:

    Well at least for my order, the non-Chinese postal number only started working a couple days ago.

    Yeah. But it updated 3 hours ago that it was leaving for the New York JFK airport, so it's getting close

    T bar latch piece you slot in to the square slots on Onslaughts shoulders once those are flipped out. I showed off how its the little part you flip down from Impetus' lower ab in my video, best to push at it from inside his torso as its hinged very tightly.

    So the big ratchets are in Onslaught, no moving pieces on Impetus for the shoulder connection.

    Impetus is awesome. Thus far I've only hoisted him from the package and applied his rotors, pulled out the rear landing gear, etc., but I'm looking forward to transforming him shortly.

    Thanks. Did you feel that the connection is strong and won't wear over time and won't come loose over time?

    I think you misunderstood I haven't handled mmc's Onslaught nor will I until he's shipping later this year I just described how the mechanism appears to work since I now know what shape of connector Impetus has which is a very non-traditional design I've never seen on a combiner before. Seems the parts on Onslaught latch around it far as I can tell.

    Ah yeah thanks I forgot he showed it off already. I just rewatched it and its like I thought you slot in the connector at the top where the part on onslaught is wider and then push it down and then theirs a "cap" piece that slides down to lock impetus on to him. Seems to be a nifty way to go about it.

    Does Impetus ship with a traditional manual, or are they redirecting to the video instructions now? First time a MMC figure shipped without a manual in the box for me.
