That's an interesting klicky!

wow... that's so weird!

Why would the hand (apart form the weird shape) be of the same white plastic as the arm if they are separate molds??

I've been wondering that for most of my life.  I know he's not the only klicky out there with this "disability", so there must be some simple explanation.

Hmmm my take on it, based on how the machines work, is that for some reason the hand part didn't get molded. When the machine rotated to mold the arm around the hand, with nothing there it just filled in the cavity with more of the arm plastic. I've seen something similar before somewhere on a different klicky, so I think it's probably just what happens when the hand isn't present during molding.

That makes sense. I always thought the arm was formed before the hand, so I couldn't figure out how his hand came to be white.

oh! yes that make sense Tim, thanks

Me too.... I thought they were molded separately and then the hand clicked into the wrist hole.
