    I have this set, and I cannot see why you would think that is a KO.

    If anyone wants to sell me their launcher, we can split the cost for the set.

    Why do you think it's a KO? The original manufacturer was from China, I got mine from BBTS and the actual product looks like what is in the pics. Even the original the chrome launchers had some chrome flake off. The nozzle and the ladder seems to have held up pretty well.

    not ko, good set, even if the launchers weren't designed to have chrome on them, they fit eventually

    That is a good set for a good price. Just be aware that there is no satisfying way to display the ladder on Inferno in bot mode.

    Yeah, like Exomega said, there is a very easy way to do this. Check the Radicon section. All you need is a good 5 mm peg.

    Actually, the one I did, didn't use mods; you can mount his ladder to his back.. isn't that how Geewun was? unless I recall wrong... gonna have to check when I get home.

    I disagree...by putting the fold-up piece that covers the hole in Inferno's back through the ladder steps, it holds VERY securely. I don't have pics handy but I can pick it up by the ladder while attached this way and it won't come apart.

    I've simply put mine on his arm not attached it using the post but instead you take the panel on his arm that's on a hinge and the ladder simply sits on there it slides over that part of his arm.. give a similar sort of look to Megatron's Fusion Cannon.

    I'll try to take a pic to show what I mean.
