Looks like you made a nice g2 gucko! Goodies
-vaguely resembles a gukko
-it’s mountable
-looks like an actual set
-excellent flapping function
-it looks like a bird Bad Things
-looks like a vulture, and I don’t like vultures
This is awesome. The accuracy to what a bird looks like is spot on, though it manages to have a biomechanics like feel, too. But the real icing on the cake has to be that nifty function.
Man, this is awesome!! @SwagMeister is totally spot on, it does look like a gucko!
I’m wondering if you could use the borok neck mechanism and a couple of gears to bring the two wing functions together to a central gear in the torso?
10/10 on the Moc anyway
This is well done, you should contact LEGO and show them this, because this would be a cool thing to see, more so, because it could be used in introducing mote villagers into the sets.
IMO, it looks pretty bad on it’s own. The wings don’t look good at all due to the technic lift arms. I do like the flapping function, though. The legs are also too short. Adding another limb pieces, giving the MOC knees might look much better. Thugh, I can almost forgive all of those because #THE PROTECTOR IS RIDING IT!
I love riding MOCs, especially when a Preotector is riding them. GJ, mang.
Agreed, i hope LEGO would do the same and make animals that villagers or the protectors can ride, it would expand the lore of Gen2 and show a different yet classic way for the characters to get around, remember the Gukko and the Crabs.
