the same way about the set.  It IS pretty durn big!  But look out!  The box
shows that you can make THREE submersibles with the detachable mini-sub.  You
cannot, in fact, make a submersible with the mini-sub and the big spinning
pneumatic tube motor without a bit of "creative reengineering."

I have seen that picture showing three seperate subs as well, so I was a bit
confused when the sub I got didn't do that. I'm guessing there's more than one

Um, weird, mine makes all three subs.

Yeah.  It's so simple you're going to kick yourself.  Take the front
compartment, attach the propellor section - but don't put on the propellors.
Then attachthe rotating tail section to that.  Voila!  Instant third sub.  It
also explains why the propellor section has technic beams on both sides rather
than only on one.
