The bird is Cannon!


Recommended Posts

Ekimu's falcon is now officially a cannon character in the G2 story.

The falcon appears for the first time in Ekimu's JT1 character video.

Everytime I read the title of the topic I misread is as "the bird is a cannon" and keep on thinking how much cooler that would be than just a regular bird. Then I realise that this is Bionicle and not Transformers.

 

Either way, Seeing as bird are my favorite animal, this makes me happy.

I didn't like it very much... Looks very organic and not bionicle-ish

I don't exactly understand how it looks organic… to me, if anything, its overt use of System and basic Technic parts makes it feel more rectilinear, and consequently, more mechanical, than many other Bionicle characters and creatures do. When you look at G1 Bionicle creatures like the Fikou or the Gukko or the Visorak, or the Hydruka, or G2 creatures like the Lord of Skull Spiders and Elemental Creatures, they have quite a few organic looking curves. The only part of Ekimu's Falcon that has the same type of organic-looking curves are its beak and tail feathers. Otherwise, its torso is made of boxy Technic pieces, its head is of boxy System pieces, and its wings have very sharp, straight edges.
