and here we have a P.K. “SCRAMBLED VARIANT”. Not a “REAL” variant, but an unusual case of scrambled parts in a MOC package.
Li Yang’s broken appendages appear all over the insides of this plastic bubble either courtesy of Krang’s pan-dimensional brain scrambler device or one of Lord Shibo’s evil body-part mash-up spells.
This was received courtesy of P.K.’s courtesy of Li’s co-creator; Monica Sharp.
And it would appear the real culprit of this “variant” is poor assemblage. After Li left the factory – stress and settling during shipping just sent him all to pieces.
This really breaks Tokka’s heart so i’ve set to repair him.
Plus it gives us a brief glimpse at the inner workings of the construct of a vintage TMNT figure.
