The one issue I have with the macros that require no holes is that they attach at the wrong area of the helmet. Visors and macros normally attach *above* the helmet bump, and seeing the macros attach at the bump sticks out like a sore thumb to me.

@micahnike18

Ай бұрын

I understand your reasoning. The arms of regular minifigures have 2 joints: the shoulder and the wrist. Droids only have 1 joint on the shoulder. For droids to have an equal number of joints as regular minifigs it would have to be an elbow joint since wrist joints would be impossible to make because of their skinny arms
