Hey, the takara version of Springer advertises a location where the gun is set back further on his underside in helicopter mode. I know there were some pics showcasing this from forum goers but I cannot for the life of me seem to get it attached, the handle seems to interfere with it locking in to the yellow halves of his chest. Does anyone have a walk through on this?
That's not the official way. There are two tabs on the gun. And if you look, there are two slots behind the lading gear. Just push the tabs into the slots. You might have to really push on the gun to get them in there.
That's the complaint, the official way leaves the barrels pointing out too far for some folk's taste.
By HASBRO'S directions, you're right. Your photos show Hasbro's "official" placement in helicopter mode. He's referring to the directions provided with the Takara version though.
