16:47 - Annnnd... everybody pose!

(top) |
Here's something I've wondered about for years and years: what is it with that official cartoon character pose, with the one hand held out, palm up, like they're showing you the imprint from the headpiece from the Staff of Ra burned into their skin?
I can't even comfortably hold my hand in that position. Yet cartoon characters on model sheets and promo pieces are always standing there, grinning, holding their hands out like it's the most casual gesture imaginable. Like they're endorsing some product advertised on a hand-painted signboard. Animated character suitable for all your company's product promotion needs! Also available for birthdays, weddings, or bar mitzvahs!
So much for the "illusion of life", eh?
