The Candlestick Maker

[Paleo]

Rub-a-dub-dub! Three men in a tub,

And who do you think were there?

The butcher, the baker, the candlestick maker,

And all of them gone to the fair!

The Candlestick Maker

"He turns things into candlesticks"

"This stunt didn't turn out to well…"

run kineval run. but really that is a pretty cool moc. i like the little flames pieces but also the way you did the i guess it would be eye. i'm surprised how you did the feet/legs pretty neat idea with using that shoulder armor piece from newer hero factory sets. must ask where did you get the minifig. i have never seen that body piece?

Lovely combo of the classic Bionicle parts, and HF system. I like the rounded feet, and surprised that I like the lower legs, when I think about it they should seem thin and out of proportion, but they work, somehow. Other than the flame hand, I'm not sure of the relevance of the name?

The minifig is the "Daredevil" from Collectable Minifigures Series 7.

I had the concept of a fire-theme robot throughout the building of this guy, but it ended up being only the flamethrower that was at all related. I still considered him to be related though, and I named him "Candlestick Maker" because of it. Plus, it sounds much better than just "Red Robot"

You mention how it "works" to have narrow lower legs, but would it be better if they were bulky?

I like the unique torso and foot construction. This reflects how most sets with cool set-ups of the above parts tend to be the most popular and awesome.
