LEGO Biological GBC

Every new creation of Akiyuky is featured in this blog, why?

Because they are just awesome! They mix technic building, mechanism masterful, aesthetic look and superb presentation. As this new GBC module do.

As you will see in the video it has six "dragon" heads with their necks that bite the gbc balls, bend backwards and leave the ball from their mouths with the tongue, all driven with only one PFm motor.

Cause the limited speed of the mechanism the solution of multiply the number of moving heads is nice alternative, makes the module more visual and accomplish the standard speed of ball moving in LEGO gbc standards
