Bfahome Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 From the dark depths of the sea comes a new threat! Gadunka the Mask Eater searches for a new meal, and the Toa must work together to defeat this threat, or they risk losing the battle -- and their masks! • Features an opening jaw with vicious teeth• Includes Mask of Life and Mask of Doom• Incredibly flimsy design with several billion points of articulation• Look I tried okay so… yeah. 1 2 3 4 5 6opening mouthGo Gali go!

Paleo Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 It's gadunkafunky to say the least. I love the concept, but I'm not too keen on the execution, though it might just be the photography, which I think kinda misses the roundness. The hands are great, the tongue is great, the function is great, but I feel like it's missing solidity. While the top of the head is solid and conveys a surface, the view through the mouth and out the back leaves something to be desired. The main two remedies I'd suggest are photographing on a grey/black background, and changing the teeth color to silver. Otherwise, he's pretty neatunka.

Irrie Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 (edited) It's actually kind of cute...Not nearly as menacing as the original Gadunka, but you've still got a closely resembling MOC going. Kind of a "new spin" feel. Now I just want to cuddle it! Edited February 18, 2015 by The Irrational Rock Quote bZpOwEr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anapouri Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 I agree, it's kind of cute!I wish the teeth were either chrome, white, or silver. Also, I remeber Gadunka having much larger feet. He seems a bit top heavy so I think larger feet with meatier thighs would look good on him. Also, I do miss his claws, but what you did for them is a nifty idea.

Nidhiki of the Shadows Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Aw man, it looks way too cute! Aside from that, the aspects that make Gadunka what he is are definitely present. Really interesting that this is almost 100% CCBS and still manages to catch that appearance (albeit looking too cute). The action gimmick is original, functional, and extremely creative! -NotS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prowl Nightwolf Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 That is Epic work on the biting function. I am really liking that, even if you have to wind it up and down. I may agree, white or gray teeth may work a bit better than black, but not sure what you could use. I don't know if them LoSS legs come in other colors.

Voxumo Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 I've got to admit, that the function is rather awesome. Wasn't so sure about it when just reading about it, but after seeing the video it works surprisingly well.

Petersheikah Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 OMG the function! Impressive MOC, the head is just amasing, impressive build. His legs and arms are quite little, but the original was proportioned that way too, so it's fine. Great job! Quote My MOCPages Profile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeb Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 (edited) I, like several others, almost want to hug it. Neat function, and it manages to look quite different from the original while still being recognizable!EDIT: Whoops, double posted...

Everspark Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 I like this one. Somehow it captures the 2015 Bionicle style, and the function is amazing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also happened to have way too many of them in black because of the BrickFair parts draft. (Also, I made the claws like that because 1. I've wanted to use those pieces as crab-like claws for a long time now and 2. I was lazy.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
