A lot of it has to do with ‘what feels right’ for the character. What fits their personality, etc, but it’s largely just the whims of the Animator working on that hero, haha.

He wasn’t released until 6 months later, or something - unfortunately outliving the fame of the moves, themselves. :wink:...
