It is occurring to me now that these may be renders and not actual photography. In which case... idk, it's weird. He can definitely do it, there's parts for it on the toy, it's just weird they didn't consider it important enough to show

That or hasbro stock photography often... isn't the greatest. It wouldn't surprise me if the photographer either didn't care or didn't even know it could do that.

Some shots show that there's a 5mm port behind his head and the minicons heads are literally 5mm posts with faces molded into them, so he CAN do it. It's just weird that they haven't shown it, which makes me worry that maybe it just doesn't look the best

absolutely, considering the large double doors in the back of his shop and how weird it would be to just not have him be important at any point, there's like a 99% chance we get a chapter in asgore's shop. my bets on that being chapter 5

if it truly bothers people that much, hasbro has stated that they are aware of the issue and will be accepting returns to be replaced. replacements won't ship until june, but it's something at least

on top of that, a small crack seems to be, at least at the current time, the extent of the damage. its annoying visually, but nothing is unusable because of it. it is unfortunate that this happened on a haslab, but when mass producing things, machine errors happen, not every copy can be perfect

gonna talk about this here because bluesky feels like it'll be a lot less hateful than a youtube comment section, I am currently under the belief that it was a bad batch, mine arrived perfectly intact and has not broken after multiple transformations

I mean it's that or randomly throw it in a newsletter and/or randomly drop it in a post, I think having it in a direct would be a lot more fun. Sure, it's fairly unlikely, but considering it's coming to switch at the same time as everything else, it's not impossible that it gets shown

As amazing as that would be, I doubt it. I'm honestly shocked that chapter 4 is already in testing considering they JUST put in the first localization pass last month. We still have all of console porting and another wave of bugtesting to go, I'd say Q2 at the EARLIEST, undertale 10th at the latest.

If this means they have lego splatoon officially in the works, I am going to be out of money very quickly when it starts coming out
