The current image is serviceable, but I'm sure we can do better to illustrate that the hand is completely autonomous, instead of say, a guy hiding under a cupboard (of course, that's the trick they used while filming the original Addams Family, but it hampers its illustrative value).

Here are some other Thing pics to start off with: 1, 2.

Both work, but Thing on a skate is much more amusing to me.

Agreed. 5 is the kind of Thing I can get behind.

That's enough consensus. 5's up and tagged; recycle the old caption or something else?
