My creation for the "9" contest - Luxo the Destroyer, named lovingly for the Pixar mascot.
Luxo is a deceptive hunter/killer, allowing his less than threatening appearance to lull targets into a false sense of security. What escapes the reach of his umbrella-remnant claw is retrievable by the razor-headed harpoon mounted on his shoulder. He travels via the rolling ball under his lamp base, which makes an ample crushing mechanism when the occasion calls for it.
Very nice work, and good luck in the contest
