I was looking at helicopter models earlier today when I came across this little bird. I almost put it down as an alt idea for a future fancharacter, until I happened to notice something a little... unfortunate.
When a transformer with a 'copter alt transforms into bipedal mode, where does the cockpit end up? On their chest, right?
Well then, where would the point on the "nose" of the AH-6 end up?
Yeeeah. I like my fanchars a bit too much to do things like that to them, but it did get me thinking. Certainly a transformer doesn't always know how a new alt will look when applied to their body, or where every last piece of kibble is going to end up. I'd love to see a story in which somebody picks an alt that comes with a few "unfortunate" features. I can see something like the AH-6 spawning a ton of bad crotch jokes (no pun intended).
