GU-11 Posted August 18, 2011 Posted August 18, 2011 This is more about the YF-19's design and not so much the toy, so I'm not sure if this belong here. Mods please transfer this to the proper forum if it doesn't belong here. Anyways, I was looking at my YF-19 DN that was displayed in GERWALK mode and noticed that unlike the YF-21 or VF-1, it's got no "backpack thrusters" in GERWALK mode to propel itself forward in GERWALK mode. This seem to be true for the SV-51 Valks as well. The leg thrusters are basically used for hovering in GERWALK, and are the only means of forward propulsion. Is this a legitimate design error or are there hidden thrusters in the design that just weren't or couldn't be used in the toy? Quote
s001 Posted August 18, 2011 Posted August 18, 2011 (edited) That's the backpack. Sorry for the large crappy pic. Edited August 18, 2011 by s001 Quote
GU-11 Posted August 18, 2011 Author Posted August 18, 2011 Thanks for the pic, s001. I just realized that I had the DN in "no-arms" GERWALK mode, which blocks those thrusters from view. Sorry, my bad. Quote
