[QUOTE="palitoyjunky, post: 301911, member: 1828"] Ha! I rem many years ago picking up a loose Y-Wing and having the same problem, got the sound but no oscillating movement. What u have to do is actually take the ship apart. I rem steaming off the decals first because the ship comes apart horizontally ie cross sectionally so u end up with two parts bottom and top if that makes sense :roll: From memory there is a white cog and a little arm that I had to reattach to the cog(like the wheels of a train) which is the mechanism that creates the oscillating movement of the gun. There was nothing broken inside, just the arm had become detached from the cog etc. Once u get inside and see the workings I am sure it will b self explanatory to fix. Everything fitted back together fine btw so one couldn't tell that the ship had been taken apart. Hope you have success :) [/QUOTE]
