    Are his wings screwed in backward on one side for anybody else's? My left wing has the screws facing on the inside while the opposite wing has it facing out(to the back). Was this just a shortcut DNA took?

    Short answer yes.

    DNA took the shortcut by mading just the one side and used the same side flipped for the other side. Saved themselves a ton of money at our expense.

    Cloned parts are a necessity to keep pricing down, as well as hollowed out parts. The original DNA Design prototype wings would've been nice to have and looked better aesthetically.

    I suppose I can live with it for now. Just ordered a back filler for Razorclaw on eBay. I wish someone would make fillers for the back of the two leg Pred’s.

    But other than that, I’m very satisfied with this set and wouldn’t want my POTP Predaking without them.

    The only thing I want from this set is the ratchet pieces, anyone have them and not using them? PM me if you have two.

    Dude, if you lost your right hand and can't find it, you have bigger problems than posting on this forum. ;)

    Is there a way to tighten the wings? They like to flop back due to size and weight which makes them detach from the tabs on predaking's back.

    Are there any places that sell prints of the Predaking shoulder ratchet sqaure or does anyone have an extra one?

    A couple years back I bought a Predaking wwith the upgrade set but both the new ratchet and the orginal were stressed/stripped so I've been needing a new one.

    They're too heavy most likely due to the design change. Cut them bach to their prototype length for more manageable wings.

    I wish that they would make something like this for the hasbro Megazord. They really made predaking a work of art.

    hey does anyone happen to know the exact length of predakings sword in this kit? I'm asking cause I'm making a snake that can transform into a sword for predaking for a 3d printed predating that includes more members and is able to cross combine with other hasbro combiner wars and power of the prime combiners(so putting rampage on bruticus or groove on predakings shoulder or have tantrum form the arm or rampage form a leg) as for the new members and what inspired me to do this I'll be posting that some time soon an a different thread

    How is the Sword going, im very cruious on what its going to look like. Is it a straight snake? I would like to suggest a Cobra Hood attachment that could be a shield.
