It gets worse the longer you look.

Just throw some stuff together and snap the picture. Hurry up man, clock is ticking!

At least they got one VCX right....

Minus it's extra post. :)

Somewhere in here is a variant Armada draft ruleset where each player spends their 400 points bidding for individual pieces from a shared pool.

Nobody report it though, I'd feel really bad if they chopped a finger off the poor Chinese kid who did this after his boss said "put this together".

I mean it dose do its job, by showing you everything in the kit. Admittedly dislexic style. Also why is dislexic so hard to spell, it seem like a big FU to those who are affected by it.

Dyslexic

So close....

I think Amazon have had a bad day. First the European Union demand €250m in back taxes

and then this.

Oh the humanity...

It really does get worse each time you look at it.

Obviously someone didn't know what they were doing and I feel like it's an honest mistake. This stuff is hard! For the longest time I really wanted to fly my Neb-Bs backwards because the back looked like the front to me for whatever reason. I still mix up my z-95 and X-wing models :)

What I want to know is what's going on with those VCX models? Is it bad photoshopping? Did someone chew on them? They do not seem right.

Ordered a HH expansion recently. Said it was delivered- wasnt. Complained my package was missing, thought maybe it went to a neighbor. No dice. Amazon sent me a new one, no cost. Three days later I have two brand new HH because the other one decided to finally show up.

That picture is fantastic. Just a “Where’s Waldo” of mistakes.

I suspect this is actually a preview of the "something big" coming in the next wave - ultra customizable squadrons!

2 Z-95s and 1 E-wing gives you an antisquadron battery of 2 reds and a blue, with snipe 1, all for 9.5 points. Throw in that Lancer dial for its keywords, for only an extra 3 points!

It will only take you 5 minutes for ''each'' squadron attack, just to be sure to not forget something ;)

*looks at picture*

*cries*

I was about to comment saying "so they only showed one of some squadrons, so what?"

Then I went back for a second look.

Now I see what you mean.

I hope we get mixed squadrons out of this. Maybe a squad can have a being a xwing and a ywing.

That photo is actually a cry for help.

Are the squadrons melted ?

How did they even make that Z95 combo stand work? Is that the top post from a VCX that's holding it onto the base with no pointer?

This is like one of those children's "spot the differences" pictures. Quick, somebody recreate this picture, only built correctly, and we can make one of those out of it...

I believe it is a standing peg since it is slotted on the end. Guess it fits into the base. Should start playing all my squads like that so they can never die.

If you jam it in hard enough, it will fit.

That's what she said :) (Sorry, couldn't pass it up)
