Strong Spider (or Goliath) from Monkie Kid
BlockTalk Summary
A LEGO fan has created a custom-built model of the Strong Spider character from the Monkie Kid series, a character not yet available in official LEGO sets. The builder, /u/BobbaCatMOCs, aimed to accurately represent the character's appearance and scale, completing the Spider family in LEGO form.
The custom Strong Spider model is designed to closely resemble the character's appearance in the show. The builder incorporated details such as the spider that caused the mutation, reflecting the character's backstory. The model's head and arms utilize elements from the Thanos figure, including the head and Hulk hair, with lime stickers for the face. The model features articulation in its main arms, back arms, legs, and head, allowing for various poses.
The builder prioritized accuracy and functionality, opting for a design that balances detail with playability. The model's scale is comparable to other figures, standing taller than Sandy. The builder made thoughtful design choices, such as omitting extra joints in the legs to avoid the complexity of posing multiple independent spider legs.
For fans of the Monkie Kid theme, this custom build offers a unique addition to their collection. If you enjoy building your own LEGO creations, you might find a LEGO brick separator useful for making adjustments.
