Perhaps no character in folklore has been reimagined as often as Sun Wukong, the mischievous hero of Journey to the West. LEGO has devoted an entire line to reimagining Monkey’s adventures, complete with mechs and spaceships. Builder Psyro TtunTomato presents a Monkey mech that draws on another take on the legend for inspiration – the hit video game Black Myth Wukong. Of course, Monkey wields his magical cudgel, while the head is decorated with opulent tails like the video game version of the character. The builder fills out the scene with excellent spiky trees and dense overgrowth made of vines, leaves, and the sly hairpiece.
Of course, the purpose of a giant mech is to battle other mechs, and Psyro TtunTomato delivers with classic Monkey foe the Bull Demon King. The builder shows a talent for both armor plating and articulation, as the model strikes a dramatic pose. This fearsome mech is more than a match for Sun Wukong, and looks like it could bust a Hulk as well!
