Just got my hands on a new 20-448 Enforcer :)
...
Were the heck are all those extra parts going? ??? :( [tickedoff]
Can someone give me a little help here?
-
Whenever I get a new mech and I'm not sure what to do with the extra parts, I head over to camospecs.com and look at their examples. I can usually figure out what I'm supposed to do from there.

If I recall correctly, this Enforcer has extra bits for you to decide which variant you want to make it.

Ah, that's right... it will either make a ENF-4R OR an ENF-5D
-
And that's the problem. The 2 Camospec's pics don't show much and for the extra bits, I can't tell what is what so....
HEELLPP !!!!!!! [AAAH] [AAAH] [AAAH]

Describe the extra bits. The only difference between the the 4R and the 5D is the AC10 vs LB10X and the LL becoming an ERLL.
The LB10X has a smaller diameter nozzle at the end so either there is a barrel extension for it or a reinforcing tube that slips over the barrel.
The LL is shorter and thicker than the ERLL so there should be a collar to go over the laser stub for the LL but I wouldn't be surprised if you have to install a collar over the ERLL as well.
Which version do you want to make?
-
The extra barrels are unnecessary. I left mine off and it looks just fine.
-
Honestly, just take a guess and go with it. It's important for us to assemble things correctly, and when doing that mini for the 2009 diorama, I sat there with multiple TROs open and still couldn't be sure which barrels were right. This is an example of more pieces/more options being bad: it adds frustration for no real gain. Chances are no one will ever challenge your choice of barrels regardless of what variant you claim. Pick what you like the look of.
-
And after attempting to put those extra barrels and getting them to stick anywhere but on their places, I decided to forget it. [tickedoff]

If you want to see the ENF-4R on Camospecs check out the Special Projects gallery.
