I'm building my fancy new Trukk. Great model, lots of kustomisation possibilities. Only problem: The 8th step is fantasticly stupid. Am I the only one who thinks so? I mean, why didn't they tell me to put the guy in before I attatched the drivers seat to the main part of the truck? How could I possibly line up that tiny steering wheel with both the ork and the front of the trukk?
AGGH!!!!
(I'm not really asking for advice here, I basicly got it together. I just wanted to know if anyone else had this problem)

In a Society in which there is no law, and in theory no compulsion, the only arbiter of behaviour is public opinion. But public opinion, because of the tremendous urge to conformity in gregarious animals, is less tolerant than any system of law. When human beings are governed by "thou shalt not", the individual can practise a certain amount of eccentricity: when they are supposedly governed by "love" or "reason", he is under continuous pressure to make him behave and think in exactly the same way as everyone else.

I'm not sure whether I am compelled to laugh, or to beat you violently. I suppose I could do both. At the same time.

There's a special kind of test for people like you. It's long, and hard, and has a statement at the end saying: "None of the preceding questions are on the test; that'll learn you."

Its the attitude of a man who knows he's out of laughing/violent beating range.

I once took that test. I hated it, becuase I hate being manipulated. But I did pass.

It pays to read the instructions before starting the model. I always give them a quick read beforehand so I have a better idea what I'm doing. But hell, it's Orky, it'll look fine.

This is true. It just seems like it would have been so simple to do that part beforehand why wouldn't they have done so?
On a side note, the driver and gunner are reversed on the box, and there is no reason that you couldn't put it together that way. Apparently they gave out instructions to build a left hand drive in the american version, while leaving a right hand picture. Crazy brits. They forget that us Canadians speak british.
