Maybe they're gonna show the combined form? It'd be good id we could see it before the signup deadline.

Unless your Nacelle has somehow spontaneously combusted your home or caused you to contract some heinous disease or something else like that I'd think you're overreacting to a rather minor imperfection that otherwise has no bearing on either the playability or functionality of the figure overall.Hellscream9999 wrote:It doesn't matter what they intended, something/someone f&cked up, and now nacelle is a massive insult to the money you paid for it

I wouldn't get my hopes up. They didn't the last time they did a combiner (not necessarily the same, but still...), plus they like to keep their secret figures a 'secret' (leaks notwithstanding) so we might just have to wait for in hand images; but I do hope that they do reveal it, it would influence my decision.

Yes. Now go to your room and don't play with yourself.

TF_JW wrote:That's comparing them to Thrust. Compare them to the digital mock-up next; they weren't meant to mirror Thrust's exactly.
TF_JW wrote:You keep saying that the tampos were incorrectly applied. And have used that as "evidence" that the following (mis)steps in production were done purposely.
I'm saying that the tampos are actually properly printed, as originally intended. The swoosh is meant to begin at the bottom front of the wing and arch upwards and towards the rear, so if you were to flip the wings, the swoosh would match the original mock-up.
I haven't commented on how the wings were assembled. I'm just saying that there is no conspiracy here.
I hope that clears up what I've been trying to get at?
TF_JW wrote:I've been trying to figure out what you've been saying so that I could address it. It started by saying that the tampo was wrong. Which is itself a wrong statement. The tampo was applied correctly and as intended.
However, the wings were then assembled upside-down. So the tampo that was supposed to be an upward arch - the opposite of what BotCon Thrust has - is now incorrect. They now match Thrust's. Which was not the original intent.
I'm going to post a photo that I just took of a Nacelle that I disassembled and re-built the proper way. Maybe that will help. This Nacelle looked exactly like everyone else's, but I cracked the glue in the lower legs and put the wings on the proper side. See how the tampos now match those in the mock-up? That's all I've been saying.
This isn't a case of the wings being "purposely misassembled" to correct the tampo. The tampo was right when it was applied. This is just a misassembly.

Who remembers the Mayhem Attack Squad? Well get ready for their thunderous return because they are about to enter the COMBINER WARS!
