I actuallu only opened my Bruticus Maximus set today (to prepare him for the FansProject add ons), and one of the first things I noticed was the fact that with the tanks, the turrets on the photo's were set further forward than the actual tanks in the box. Several options passed my mind, like it was just an optical illusion, it was due to a mold / design change and even that it had been put together wrong in the factory. Still, the instructions and other photo's on the 'net seemed to make pretty clear that the turrets could move forward and hide the legs more.
So I kept looking at them, but man, that swivel is so well hidden and also unobvious in the instructions, I was actually thinking of taking a screwdriver to it. Luckily, I finally found it just before I was going to dismantle the tanks.
In the recently featured fan review for the FP add ons, which I also checked out today, I could see that that guy hadn't found the extra swivel either! And it really does improve Brawl and Blast Off.
