Description Another Mecha Whales character. Captain Moby commands one of the large floating fortresses that the Whale-Human-Alliance uses to defend its planet from the evil Tronds. Captain Moby wears a variation of the standard infantry suit worn by General Whalehammer to better defend his foating fortress against arial attacks.
EDIT: I replaced his right eye with a bionic targeter and changed his weapons arm a little bit as well.

This would be a cool variation of the original mold.

This is a nice variation!
Are you going to colour him differently? As in whiter, and not dark-grey?
Looks like a boss. You should do them in sets or something.

Thanks! Yes this one would be white instead of grey. He is the captain of the command ship at the beginning of the Mechawhales animation. That's why he looks a little bit more advanced then the standard infantry whale.

How many variations are you going to have in total?

That will depend on how good the first one will sell. For this one I would actually have to create some new parts. Which means new tooling cost. So I will only make him if the normal version proves to be successfull. I am thinking about doing some simple color variations of the normal version though. Like making a battle damaged version with blood stains on the head or one with different missle colors.

Ah. Yes. How are you marketing this? Using the animation?

Mostly with the animation and through collectors forums and websites.

Ah, right. Have a storyline in mind to go along with it?

Well the animation has the background story in the beginning. Apart from that I will probably buy some character bios for my models.

I meant apart from that, but yeah. That should be enough. How long have you been at this for?
