Riding the Pergyl

Spacemen would often come across strange animals on their travels through the galaxy. Some of these could be dangerous and hostile.

 

One such example was the Pergyl worm. Thrill-seeking astronauts would hop on the back of the Pergyls to enjoy bumpy ride and to post the video of their daring exploits on SpaceBook (other social media sites were also available).

 

Sadly, spacemen who were bucked off the worms' backs were often eaten. This led the authorities to post signs warning of the "Pergyl Danger".

This toy was totally inspired by David Alexander Smith's brilliant series of Outer Reach Research Team builds. You can find them on Flickr and MOCpages.

 

Here's a video of the toy in action: flic.kr/p/27ikgwV
