        Have a little confidence in yourself!  I reacted the same way
when I first noticed the partial instructions for the giant Throwbots,
but once I started building them it was quite simple.  I almost
decided not to even try, but I'm glad I did.   You just have to sit
down and do it!

I just finally completed my collection of first-year Throwbots, with the
hopes of being able to make the giant combined models. And I discovered,
to my chagrin, that the manuals do not, separately or combined, contain
all the instructions necessary to make the combined models. In each set
of four bots, all four have the same partial instructions.

So are there available complete instructions for the combined bots? Or
are we expected to just figure it out from the pictures? (Which wouldn't
be unduly difficult, but is more work than I care to put into it.)

On an only slightly related note, I wonder why TLG put "Discs are
randomly placed into Throwbots sets" on the disc posters, when it's
obvious that they are not. My set of eight first-year Throwbots,
purchased at different stores over a period of about a year, just
happens to have garnered me a perfect set of the two topmost discs on
the posters for each bot. And each set contained in it the topmost disc
for that bot. Hardly likely if its truly random. Which also begs the
question, where does one get the other discs? (Not that I actually want
to collect discs; I have no use for them. I'm just curious.)
