Has No One Really Done This?
As shown above, a delightful batch of pieces recently came to me. Takadox swords, a couple #1 angle connectors so I don't have only one in those colors, glow in the dark spines, smooth Technic panels, red Mahri tubes and black tentacles (I have no '07 playsets), and then a bunch of lime and purple and dark blue Technic pieces for my stockpiles of those colors. Because they're awesome colors and I have too few pieces in them. Plus some random pieces for other MOCs.
But the whole reason I got this order was for the hockey chest armor pieces. And they are because I realized that the Technic holes are at a width of seven studs – exactly the right size to fit an Inika or Piraka torso.
Here we have Hewkii, modeling the piece. It makes wonderful armor to go on the Piraka torso. It sticks out a bit more on the Inika body, but, with some creativity filling in underneath, it can look positively swell.
Really, has no one noticed this before? I'd be shocked if nobody had, but since I myself haven't run across such, I figured I'd post it...
