IIRC It stopped retracting for the usual reason (metal coil that makes it retract coming off it's proper position at one point or losing tension or whatever) albeit much sooner than usual, and then after I fixed it I got a couple more launches and it stopped again - but this time the metal coil had sheared in two at one point along it. At least, that's what I remember - the coil might have just snapped outright, this was back when gravity was being used as an attack wheel.
Anyways, even out of the box the action on that launcher was really rough and jittery, and apparently others had the same issue - perhaps it was contact surfaces of parts not being polished properly or something, I dunno. Either way, both issues were fairly common knowledge.
Mold 2 is significantly lighter. I forget whether we got the gravity perseus article onto beywiki or not, but I know the draft covered it, so check beywiki or the drafts forum for it.
