I always saw the drone like this:

I thought the eyes were at the top and that thing in the middle was its nose. I never noticed the red bulbs on the sides until recently, and that's when I finally realized that those were actually the eyes.

Lol I never noticed that, in fact I could not make out wat the drone is at all.

Does anyone else think the Probe looks like a futuristic taxi with windshield wipers. Or just a face.

oh wow i thought exactly the same on all of these to this day.. i guess when you are a kid you have a way of interpreting the images differently and it kinda sticks. Don't really know why..

^ I always saw the shoulder blade as a lower lip and wondered if the goofy looking alien was some sort of protoss that somehow didn't look like the other ones.

Hehe, seeing the Protoss like that he looks a fair bit like...

I won't be able to unsee most of that stuff now, especialy the protoss on the loading screen.

Hmmm I'm not sure if this makes much sense but I always saw the probe wayyy differently. I always saw the part circled as a weird robot head, with the blue strip being its visor. Also the two big green circles I guess were it's shoulder pads. lol now that I'm trying to describe it sounds stupid but it blew my mind when I found out the green balls were it's eyes =p

I used to always think the zealot looked like a duck, with the front part of his face being the "duck bill". Now that I look at it, he also looks like some alligator thing!

To get another terran one in... :D

The battlecruiser was messed for me - I guess my monitor was too dark and so I couldn't see the eyes under the visor, so I thought he looked like this:
[image loading]
Haha I used to ask my bro why they made the battlecruiser look so retarded and he's like "wtf are you talking about it looks completely normal." If you lean down really low or angle your monitor you might see it better, because the eyes under the visor disappear when it gets too dark.

This is very interesting and funny hehe, I love the impressions of the goon! Now that I've seen some different interpretations I can clearly see how they could have been seen that way haha :D OMG that goldeneye one is hilarious! Never seen that one before LOL

I always thought that the in-game hydralisk model looks like a giant floating head with a long tail.

Btw Sigrun, I'm like 99% sure the red bulbs on the sides are not the eyes...

[image loading][image loading]
You can see the yellow dots of the eyes in the middle, they are small and hard to see on this picture. The head is somewhat tilted. I'm not completely sure though, didn't notice before how tilted the eyes were

Are they? Does everyone else think so? Dammit I might have had this one wrong all along too hahaha! I kinda like my interpretation of it still though, the bulbs make it look like a housefly T_T But the bulbs would make more sense based on how the portrait is made haha
