Why did Red Vulture have those "weapon-holding" arms? If he'd had straight arms like Wheels he'd have been able to drive a lot better, and would also have stood apart from the Shadows. I've always thought that those figures look like dodgy air guitarists.

I always hated that myself, thats why Red Vulture was my final choice for worst wave 2 figure!

They weren't "weapon-holding" arms in Red Vulture's case. They were "wine bottle holding" and "8-Trak cartridge player volume adjusting" arms.

Well, it is almost Halloween and besides, I have to re-animate all my lost posts.

A nice thread to reanimate tho',

also affects a certain baguette and rolled-up Le Monde holding a gauche - Gitanes grabbing posture a droite that you may find in a tabac of a matin in certain banlieue of our grande merde-heap voisines.
Perhaps it's Halloween and the nearly full moon that made me see that for the first time.
Straight arms can't have been beyond the ken of the mighty Coalville, given that they were determined to paint his gloves black, maybe they just thought the position of the handbrake and the general MIG-15 vs. Lada 4x4 cockpit layout of the Shadowtrak meant that it the en garde posture was more appropriate.

Preposed arms always bothered me as a kid. Those guys usually got killed first during games.
