My main inspirations for my design were the character sets for Technic in the late 90s to 2002, particularly things like Throwbots and BIONICLE Rahi sets. The highlight colors for each model were chosen to reflect this.

Something I've loved doing ever since the use of tow ball pieces was expanded with the friction sockets is combining tow ball pieces with Technic. Together, their potential for making new and unique buildable figures has fascinated me, and I wanted to take the opportunity to go wild with this in my design. This brings me to my design process, which revolved around choosing an unwieldy or niche Technic piece and using it as the base for a creature model. I also wanted to use oddball pieces in the head of each creature model, though Grapplin (teal) is a bit lacking in that regard.

Fi Turr's (orange) design process was different, as they're based off of the very first model I made combining tow ball pieces and Technic. I've made several like it in real life, so it was by far the easiest model out of my design to make.

My hope is that this design will spark the imagination and encourage more creations made from strange combinations such as the ones displayed here.
