 Post subject: Gargon, Terron from Beyond!

Another "proto-villain" homage! In the US, its name was Terron. It was a part of the Super Joe toyline as a major villain. They were the minions of the King of the Terrons, Gor! They were a six legged creature that looked like a mashup between a triceratops an insect and a stegosaurus. It was odd looking but terrifying. It had a light and sound as well as a walking feature that could be interrupted if you shone a beam of light into it's cavity. This would stop it in its tracks!

Over in the UK, the toy was called Gargon. He was one of the members of the Time Enemies of Action Man and was the beast of the Master of Time. He was sent through a Time Door to assist the Intruder in defeating the Action Man Team and conquer the Earth. Of course, their efforts were thwarted by the sudden appearance of the advanced Action Man Space Rangers. This information was recovered from the box of Gargon. It was really insane learning about these details. Haha. I couldn't make this up! Palitoy tried though.

Anyway, this is a new character named Gargona. She's an homage and continuation from the Terron/Gargon toy and concept. She's from the planet Terron. She doesn't have six legs and this is mainly because she's a mutant. She has psychic powers akin to Professor X. She's also a juvenile Terron at only 9 years old.

Basically. I used the juvenile Jurassic World Triceratops; the head of a ROC blue missile for the tail and sculpted the spikes with Tamiya Fast Putty. Pretty much simple job really. Doesn't look a lot like the actual Terron/Gargon but close enough. Also my first attempt at sculpt work so there's that too.

Thanks! Yea. It's a two part epoxy putty actually called "Quick Type" and it's in a green and white box. Whoa. Baby oil. I had no clue. I just used water. Next project I use epoxy, I'm getting me some baby oil!
