[QUOTE="Forumtrooper, post: 346685, member: 6598"] I got a loose trilogo Y-Wing in the mail today. The gun assembly wasn't rotating but the sound worked. Since the stickers were already cut on this Y-Wing I decided to open it and fix the gun assembly. After fixing this I realigned the landing gear assembly as was shown in the video (which was a big help btw!) and I noticed that the part were the front landing gear was clipped into was different from the one in the video. it is a more solid piece with just some round holes where the pegs go into, so it has no way of popping out the way it was shown in the video. No need for plastic bands on this one! Also to let the landing gear down, the button needs to be pressed down a little before it can slide forward, I didn't see that in the video either. Just to let you know. :) If anyone is interested, I can see if I can take a picture of it later this week. [/QUOTE]
