Something I always found fun about 07 was how the Barraki switched the standard red and white character personalities - Kalmah was the cold and calculating one, while Pridak was more emotion driven and aggressive, which is an inversion of what fire and ice characters were like.

Pretty cool comparison, I would also think its because cephlopods are smart and cunning were as sharks (like bullsharks) are really aggressive and territorial.

7:40 actually eljay you CAN stage them! The tip of the tentacle is the same size as a standard system rod, and the holes in the tentacles are the same size as the holes rods go into. That means if you wanted to you could set up the tentacle to look as if it's choking a toa!

TTV Eljay I agree with the fact that the tentacles are a huge contrast against his color scheme, but once you put the squid in the squid launcher, i feel that it flows quite well actually.
