I love that in all the ebb and flow, and hit or miss nature of the Monster Rancher franchise removing and replacing and changing designs over the years, this fucking abomination somehow survived from inception til the end of the core franchise, and did so almost entirely unchanged. They really looked at this wretched mutant and were like, perfect, no notes.
#monster rancher#beaclon/ducken#beaklon/ducken#ducklon#the confusing featureless “beetle” head vs the elongated duck head draw a lot of attention#but it's really the two smaller duck heads for bug hands that do it for me#and I love how the windup key is there on the head#to indicate that it's a toy#as if that explains any of the rest of the design#i do miss the uncanny flipper hands#it's actually way more unsettling for it to move like a beacon#but have no little bug fingers at the ends#just smooth white paddles
