I opened up Deepdive's instructions and low and behold, the photo on the back of the packaging for the Giant Planet Minicons has him transformed wrong.
Yes. I didn't read how to transform him I just did it.
Yes. I was wrong.
No. I didn't question it since he was that way in the photo on the back of the packaging.
But honestly, I'm not sure which way is better.
I actually like the way I originally transformed him.
I don't know why. I just do.
What the hey? Now he's got propellers for hands!
Yes. But he is still an awesome little bit of design work.
Whoa, I preferred the 1st one... Love the blog by the way!
An English fan.
Thanks Mark.
Indeed. He does look a bit better, though awkward, in the first pose.
Yeah, when I pulled out the instructions it was listed on there. I just hadn't seen that because I don't think I've ever looked at minicon instructions before. (The "powerlinx" of Overcast to Deep Dive is weirder.) It was pretty odd-I'm used to the mistransformed toys in toy shows, but on the package itself they usually get it right. I still plan on keeping his arms the wrong way. . . it looks better.
