Was never a big fan of how Dezalk was just Garan with Balta's head and feet, so I made my own tweaked version!

Was never a big fan of how Dezalk was just Garan with Balta's head and feet, so I made my own tweaked version!
The myth, the man, the legend... Dezalk.
With the exception of the legs, head, eyestalk, mask and tools (and also the colours of like half the pieces), this design was made using pieces from Balta, Garan and Piruk, for. Reasons (the cut Garan/Balta hybrid sprite from VNOG's files that the fandom seems to have latched onto as being Dezalk, plus the fact that, in canon, Dezalk was the first Matoran to be enslaved by the Piraka, and the Matoran slaves in VNOG are slightly-modified Piruk recolours. And then the tools are based on the weird VNOG Pulse Bolt Generator sprites).
Custom parts used:
Articulated Matoran legs from Godfyr's pack.
Head from @nattarthetimedragon's custom head pack.
Some official parts from Sidopak and Biopack.
Colours from the Community Colourpack and Unpixelled's Colourpack (the latter requires K4's Colour and Materials Pack in order to work).
Do you personally headcanon Dezalk as being the unused VNOG Matoran?
Yes
No
What?
For those who don't know what I'm talking about,
Wait, was Dezalk looking like the unused VNOG Matoran not actually canon? Because the Biosector01 pages for both VNOG and Dezalk do not mention that happening, but I swear that's what happened.
Yet more roleswap shenanigans, featuring the Voyatoran, who swap with the Metrutoran. Also bonus Dezalk, who swaps with Brander.
(Yes I know the last one I did was another palette-swap mask-swap clone thing, I promise the next one will be less formulaic, also yes I'm aware that Dezalk's foot-axles are the wrong colour but I can't be bothered to change them.)
Stuff I use is here yes.
Hypothetical set-version of Dezalk, who is probably no-one's favourite character, but like not in the "ugh this guy sucks" way, more the "appears in literally two pieces of fiction, one of which is a sourcebook, and his only role in the story is being the first infected matoran so he has literally no personality whatsoever, also his official appearance is based on an unused sprite from the worst Bionicle web-game" way.
Headcanons
I know nobody really knows or even cares about Dezalk but I have a few headcanons about him on his appearance
I know Balta already has a Huna but I keep picturing Dezalk with one too
Also, Dezalk has a fully mechanical replacement hand, as BS01 wrote that he had suffered an injury and had to be sent to Karzahni
The cause of his injury could be a lava incident since he’s a Ta-Matoran and might’ve worked around it
