other angles:
-front view
-back view (with cape)
-back view (without cape)

onto the functionality, what exactly does flintsmith do?
well, a system of gears (located inside the torso) allow the arms to spin around the central axle (sort of like a spine), much improving the waist articulation, of course, the flaw would be that the arms would spin around the central axle without restraint, this isn't so, the toa metru chests along with the hips limit the range of motion down to human standards, also allows for punching action when posed correctly
here's a poor quality video that shows the function


also noted on this creation, you may have noticed (at least i hope you did ) that i use sanok's as shoulder armor (similar to that of samus aran's), however, you don't see the signiture green eyes or white 'teeth,' some may say, "gasp, mikey cheated!" others may say that i did something inovative (again)
the answer to this question, innovation!
now, how does this wonderous system work? well let me show you:
Step:

1. take an inika head, minifig cape, and an inika mask
2. rotate the inika mask until you're staring into it's interior
3. take the minifig cape and stick it into the inika mask
4. insert the inika headplate in the normal fashion
   note1- make sure that the cape fits completely between the headplate and the mask
   note2- make sure it covers all eyeholes and mouth peices
   note3- make sure that there are no visible wrinkles in the cape
   note4- not tested with jallers mask, 2 or more capes will be required
5. and you've successfully changed the eye color of you inika

consructive criticism welcome
enjoy
