Of Great Importance


Strakk or Gelu?

 

I have decided at this point to get Kiina and Ackar, and I've always wanted one out of the two Ice Glatoriana, but certainly not both. They're way too similar to make both of them worth it. But I do like bits and pieces of each. Strakk's fantastic color scheme and shoulders/head; Gelu's armor and swords and helmet and snowflake shoulders... (don't have Metus)

 

Once they go on sale or something.

I'd go for Gelu. The colors just look awesome. Quite a sight if he's just standing on your shelf at school. Plus, the helmet, swords, and ice armor. (And white torso armor.)

(This whole "Glatoriana" thing sounds weird to me for anyone aside from Kiina...)

I don't have Gelu, but I do have Strakk. He is icky. I would suggest Gelu, despite how ordinary looking he is.

Strakk's build is ingenious. But it's easier to find consistency between Gelu's parts and others.

 

I've always envisioned an MOC using Strakk's head as tail feathers and shoulder armor as wings on some type of bird (yes, I've seen it on a swan-type thing before, but it wasn't at all like my vision). Perhaps you could conquer that task? You've done several artistic MOCs in the past.

 

This comment is probably just going to confuse you all the more. Sorry. :lookaround:

While Gelu is the quintessential Inika redux, Strakk looks far more interesting. I'd say go with the latter. :)

Strakk is unique and awesome and has lovely pieces and looks just plain cool in any pose.

 

Gelu is an Inika clone that doesn't do the job as well as Ackar, but he has okay pieces and a recolor.

 

So yeah, get Strakk.

Agreed. Strakk's got the wicked Ice Troll look that's unique to him. Next to him, Gelu is cookie-cutter BIONICLE.

Gelu. Those weapons, snowflakes, helmet, and white Inika armor pad are just too much to not get. =P Besides, IMO, Gelu looks better, even if he is just an Inikamod.

Strakk has far more personality. I love Gelu and all, but Strakk wins.

Wait until they go on sale for half off and get both. :P

No, don't listen to them! Get Gelu, he might be an Inika Clone, but his epic-ness makes up for that!

Every time someone says you should get Gelu, every little cute mammal on earth dies. ;_;

And then is painfully resurrected.

I declare Strakk the winner of this entry. His construction and color scheme both leave Gelu in the dust (or snowdrifts), and all anyone's been able to muster in Gelu's favor is "he's cool" or some variant of that, plus his (few) unique pieces, which I can buy online.

 

In other words, what Bunda said.

I read this entry in dismay until I saw you made the right choice. :) You won't regret it.

i would say get strakk if you want better pieces and get gelu if you want a cool-looking set.
