This Hollow Knight collaboration bugs me quite a bit

I have a special place in my heart for LEGO collaborations; collabs, as the cool kids call them. We have a bevy of cool kids in this article collab-ing on characters from the Hollow Knight video game, so get out your pencils and take some notes. First up is the Watcher Knight, a blue beetle guy built by (I presume) the coolest kid of them all, Sandro Quattrini. I like his stance and there are surely some neat parts usage here. Truth be told, I needed the help of Wikipedia to clue me in on the Hollow Knight game but I’m well aware of its influences such as Metroid, The Legend of Zelda, and Mega Man X. Incidentally, the heyday of those games precisely mark the end of my coolness and my foray into being a middle-aged schlub and occasional public nuisance.

Wikipedia goes on to explain that in Hollow Knight, the player controls the Knight, an insectoid warrior exploring Hallownest, a fallen kingdom plagued by a supernatural disease. So it was pretty much 2020 then? Here’s the buggy Markoth cleverly constructed by cool kid Matt Goldberg.

Nuvok_mok cranks up the cool with this Vengefly King that is equal parts intriguing and skin-crawling unsettledness.

Finally, a cool builder who goes by the unnerving name of MySnailEatsPizza presents the Great Nailsage Sly.

If I’ve both educated and creeped you out, dear readers, then I have done my job! If I’ve only creeped you out, then I gotta work on the education bit and maybe stop cyber-stalking my exes. Let us know in the comments if you were educated or merely creeped out. And while you’re mulling over that answer, please check out TBB collaboration archives to see what the other cool kids have worked on together.
