I just got the big galactic battle box and my omega sentinal's arm won't stay up, making him easier to kill than the at-rt. Is this figure broken or is it supposed to do that? I've also noticed that the broken arm is more far out.

I think that since Omega Sentinel's mold appears to be the same as Omega Supreme, the space between the body and the arm is just the remnant of Supreme's throwing arm, which stayed down like that as well. It's probably nothing to be worried about.

Mine too. It's supposed to be that way.

Ok, I've seen a picture of another omega sentinel but their arm was staying up unlike mine. Is this right? My guy's arm wont stay up if you lift it, it just falls down.

Mine does that and so does my brother's. I just kinda figured it was meant to be like that.

Well, was it a picture by someone that owns one, or was it a promotional pic(think of the pics used by online retailers)? If it's someone that owns one, I'd be surprised.

Uhh, its actually both, but the one that was owned looks like its been messed around with because now he calls it "Omega Sentinel Supreme" with both their arms, but the sentinel's arm was staying up. It's in the customs part of the forum somewhere.

I think I know the picture you're talking about. In that photo the Omega Sentinel's arm is propped up. It doesn't stay up on its own.

Yes, if you see omega sentinel holding his shooting arm up, it is most likely propped somehow. example 1:  This is a pretty common promotional picture. I keep thinking his arm is likely propped up by the protruding button on his knee. example 2 (from joeattacktix):  His arm is propped up by optimus prime. Sneaky huh?  |

Oh, well thanks. I just have 1 more question... Why does he die in 1 hit but AT-RT dies in 2, is this right?

Technically, the omega sentinal should die in 2 hits too but usually he falls after just one strong shot to the right knee (causing the left knee to buckle too). You can house rules it though that both knees must be hit in order for him to die, since this is a design flaw. |

One more note, folks. If you REALLY need that arm to stay up, take a rubber band from orthodontic braces (or in my case industrial supplies) or dental floss, and wedge it in between the arm and body. It acts as a friction bearing and allows it to stay up. Just don't use a blue one....too many jokes would follow.

Ok, I'm still kind of confused about him, what is the use of a broken arm that swings? Are you allowed to swing it like Scorponok?
