When I posted "Random Modifications" here and across the forums, I got a "friendly" challenge from someone at Hobby Fanatics to do this:
Which isn't really hard to do (at least for me).
I simply modified the blue armor parts of the drive wing support to increase its swing range.
I could still make the angle more dramatic later on. The swing angle is also limited by how the articulation is designed. I didn't want to alter that unless I really have to, since I might damage it inadvertently.
The thing is, owing to how the drives function in season two of the anime, doing that sort of pose is pretty useless. There's also a scene (or a picture) where the drives are swung completely forward so that the 00 can speed backward, so at this pose, will the drives hold the 00 at a hover, or let it fall dowards fast? The Exia can execute all sorts of movement regardless of the drive's orientation, so, it's either a plot oversight, or it really doesn't matter so as long as it can do a "kewl" pose.
