I already have the solution because I looked it up, don't really understand the pattern though...
If the ans D. Then the bottom 2 shapes in columns 1 & 2 appear to be mirror/transform/reversal (reversal meaning concave to convex).
E
its rotating clockwise
>>7806988
it really is E.
but what's up with the other pictures then? where's the pattern there?
I picked E, but I classified everything based on the side the needle is facing.
