Who says monsters have to be scary. Have you ever seen an angler fish? Those are scary, and they’re just fish. I prefer my monsters to be blue collar regular joes just doing their part. Meet James P. "Sulley" Sullivan and Mike Wazowski, the top scare team at Monsters Inc by builder Palixa And The Bricks. Oh, and that short one is Boo, she’s not exactly supposed to be here.
Mike & Sulley! I never had a monster under my bed as a youth, unless you count my little brother. You see I slept in the upper bunk, so I didn't worry much about what was under me, unless he was kicking my mattress trying to get my attention. I do recall my brother being deeply disturbed by my Revell Monsters model kits though, so there was some fear in the room.
Monsters Inc. showed us all that laughter is more powerful than fear. Dave Shaddix showed us that he's got the mad skills. Although technically, this entire MOC would be considered a 2319, I'm sure Roz would make an exception.
