The fearless divers discover a special pearl, only to discover it's guardian is none other than a mega squid...who turns out to be the dreaded Ocean King!

But the King isn't the only one with a secret, as the diver's sub transforms into a fighting mech!

The giant clam is excellent, and I really like the Kraken. However, I can't see this becoming a D2C set. It's very good, and I can see it becoming a normal set, but it's just too small to be a D2C. Maybe making the temple bigger, and adding a rock formation would do it good. Well done, and good luck!

Ooh, very cool entry chief! I love the transformation feature of the vehicles - very well conceived and better executed. Great work and best of luck in the contest!

The transforming vehicles were totally unexpected, nice work! The giant clam is also neat.

Though I have to agree with Gregorovich, this is perhaps not large enough to be a D2C set, but still a great MOC nonetheless.

By your standards, did you guys also feel that many entries in the contest are not big enough for D2C? If this entry isn't big enough, neither is half the competition!

Just curious, because the piece count of this entry is pretty high, and space-wise would overshadow, say, a Medieval Market Village.

I like the building and the giant clam, they could be a nice standalone battle pack or something.

The transforming squid and vehicle is a nice idea, too.
