Again a great monster !
I like the whole monster. The way the sand goes beside...the mouth and the great dragon-tail-tongue !
You can see my MoCs on [url=http://www.flickr.com/photos/legoorci/]my Flickr Account[/url] and you can see them also on [url=http://legoorci.wordpress.com/]my Blog[/url] where you also can read the stories behind the MoCs...but in german.

I've always been a fan of both the Final Fantasy series and your monster MOCs. This worm looks great; the tongue is a very creative use of that dragon tail piece.

Hmmm, since you said this monster was from FFII, I'm guessing you grew up in the USA. On the Super NES, the game known as FFII was actually FFIV in Japan, but since FFII and FFIII weren't released in the USA, FFIV was renamed FFII in the USA so as not to confuse American consumers (it would be confusing to go from FFI on the NES to FFIV on the SNES). However, all later re-releases and editions of FFIV(Japan)/FFII(USA) were correctly named FFIV, as FFII and FFIII had later been released in the USA, usually as compilations.

So anyway, this monster is awesome and quite true to the its depiction in the game. I can just see my Masamune slicing across it ::cling::

Great job!

Talk about a blast from the past...wow! I vaguely remember playing FF2, the airships, the hero fighting himself to reveil his destiny, man that was soo long ago. While I don't remember this worm specifically it still looks good nonetheless. It reminds me of the giant Sand Worms from Herbert's Dune series of novels. Nice Job!

Great piece for the tongue. I love the sand work at the bottom as well.

Scary! Very nice job; clever design on the tongue.
To those who are about to Lego: toss me a few bricks.
