Just noticed something about the YF-19's GERWALK mode

This is more about the YF-19's design and not so much the toy, so I'm not sure if this belong here. Mods please transfer this to the proper forum if it doesn't belong here.

Anyways, I was looking at my YF-19 DN that was displayed in GERWALK mode and noticed that unlike the YF-21 or VF-1, it's got no "backpack thrusters" in GERWALK mode to propel itself forward in GERWALK mode. This seem to be true for the SV-51 Valks as well. The leg thrusters are basically used for hovering in GERWALK, and are the only means of forward propulsion.

Is this a legitimate design error or are there hidden thrusters in the design that just weren't or couldn't be used in the toy?

Thanks for the pic, s001.

I just realized that I had the DN in "no-arms" GERWALK mode, which blocks those thrusters from view.

Sorry, my bad.
