Frog (with a Knight's Kingdom II Torso!)

Name of Model: Frog

This mechanical frog is a pretty brilliant idea. A few years ago, LEGO tried out a line of large Castle-themed Knight action figures. They didn't catch on too well, and the parts (often with special printing or colors) are now all easy to pick up used on the cheap. The torso from one of those figures makes up the bulk of this frog. More widely available Technic and System parts fill out the rest of his body. The effect is spectacular.

Here's a clever one using small frogs, some unusual parts, and some unusual colors. It's a good example of how a few unusual parts can have a very clever ironic meaning.
This is Thursday's model of the day. (Somehow I got my times messed up this week...)
