    What do you mean? Obviously you stick the thing in the other thing, then turn that thing and tighten those two things.

    Does anyone know why we're getting a new chest plate with this set?

    I thought the price was supposed to be lowered for this? I ain’t spending $50.

    The way I interpreted the statement (It's in post #50 of this thread) was that the yellow and translucent sets price would be dropped specifically due to the lower demand for them.

    Very interested to see how the leg-entenders look on Mixmaster and Scrapper in Bot Mode and/or Alt Mode (if at all)

    Anyone knows what's the battery type? They are all different sizes apparently for the drill, head and chest. Can't seem to find any info online....

    Turns out that the led lights for my head unit is spoiled. The rest of the electronics are working fine. Anyone has experience with GT customer service? Will they be able to help?

    Try reversing the direction of the batteries. I think they messed this up release-wide.

    Ah, if that's the case, then you're entitled to a return and replacement/refund. Good luck, man.

    The price on taobao was lowered by abt 50rmb if I recall correctly. It used to be 230rmb, now it's 180rmb.

    Not sure any NA prices and why they aren't coming down tho...

    TFSource still doesn’t have preorders in stock. I’m about one week from cancelling it and getting it through an eBay seller.
