Really cool, fun parts usage. The lavender minidoll torso is a brilliant choice!

What's the two yellow parts used in the beast's mouth? At first, I thought it was a k'nex piece (haven't thought about that in decades), but upon closer inspection, maybe not. Do you know what it is?

Great work, thanks for sharing!

Thank you! The Nexu required some majorly out of the box thinking for parts usage throughout, with the minidoll torso and arms probably being the most radical technique I’ve ever had to come up with. The teeth for the Acklay are this piece here. I’m a parts purist (and I like to push legal build technique puritanism to its limits), so all of my builds strictly use Lego brand pieces.

Ah, yes, now I can see it. Hard to tell the scale of some of it, it looked like it was larger than that.

I just noticed on that lower jaw, is that gollum's arm connecting the jaw? Again, really cool details. The longer I look, the more I notice.

I'm working on a castle MOC with some pretty elaborate brick work, and hope to post pics soon.

Yup, that’s Gollum’s arm. Thanks again. Looking forward to seeing your MOC here
