Jeff, this is pretty darn cool. The real crime here is that some folks are
going to do the whole anti bionicle line to this awesome creation.
Where to start? I dig the head simple, elegant, fantastic.
Colors, fits the Hive theme, for some reason yellow and black almost always
makes me think of hornets. One would think it'd mean construction too but
that's where the overall construction would come into play. This looks more
scary and so I think hive warrior definantly fits.
I like the feet, three toes are good. Great use of printed brick.
Shoulders are neato. I can't quite place the part you got in repition
around the wheel. Throwbot?
My only beef, and I'm not sure what to do about it because it's a personal
bane of mine as well, the hands look spindly. Kind of thin, where the rest
of the mech is really beefy. (you'll notice I don't use hands much, this is
why.) But I do think with the insect theme (hive warrior) it is good. Very
claw like.
Dude, I'm off to dig the pics again, and thanks for the ammunition agains
the "bionicle is crap" crowd.
