Well, for one, I was dead impatient, plus I usually don't even leave Godbomber attached 90% of the time... Ken also gets requests for missiles to fit the new reissue launchers. Keep in mind, the plastic is soft, the whole thing took 5 minutes...

And the boxes DO say "ADULT COLLECTIBLE"... under the big warning sticker. Which, if these were Gamestop or mall store exclusives, they wouldn't even need alterations. Hasbro just went with TRU so they could mark these up to what imports cost. I've attributed the whole alteration thing to Aaron Archer at Hasbro(for the simple fact that the man seems to be somewhat INSANE...)
