He also wanted to see earrings with the South Africa flag on it and a Chuukese love stick. And here’s what I came up with." ~ shared Björnik of hos completed 7-inch Munny, named "Neeti".

BACKSTORY: "This machine was hanging in the the Grand Central Museum located in the Great City of Netro. The scout was shot down while it tried to record the layout and blueprints of the city. New Alexandria has been at odds with the other 12 Great cities since it attacked its rival city. Many of the great cities reported seeing these scouts over their borders, most of them being shot down. This intrusion only intensifies the world's reluctance to deal with the floating city of New Alexandria. The floating city has been missing for quite some time, many dreading it return."
