Hello guys , today I bring the first of a series of conception ideas done by many of you , my fellow Realmers and very good friends into The Agents of Gaia and Nemesis Universe (or as it will by Named hence forward "The Realm Universe" in honor of all the great creators that have and will help shape and create it!) , this time the idea came from MARVELUS_CUSTOMS , about a being that WE ALL have feared in a way or another at some point , in Mexico they call it "El Cucuy" or "El Coco" , but I think you might simply know him as "The Bogeyman".

In Spain and Latin America, parents sometimes invoke the Coco as a way of discouraging their children from misbehaving; they sing lullabies or tell rhymes warning their children that if they don't obey their parents, el Coco will come and get them and then eat them.

It is not the way the Coco looks but what he does that scares most. It is a child eater and a kidnapper; it may immediately devour the child, leaving no trace, or it may spirit the child away to a place of no return, but it only does this to disobedient children. The coca is on the look out for child's misbehavior on the top of the roof, the coco takes the shape of any dark shadow and stays watching.[26] It represents the opposite of the guardian angel and is frequently compared to the devil. Others see the Coco as a representation of the deceased of the local community.

There is no general description of the cucuy, as far as facial or body descriptions, but it is stated that this shapeshifting being is extremely horrible to look at. The coco is variously described as a shapeless figure, sometimes a hairy monster, that hides in closets or under beds and eats children that misbehave when they are told to go to bed.

“ Duérmete niño, duérmete ya...
Que viene el Coco y te comerá.

Sleep child, sleep now...
Or else the Coco will come and eat you"

Well guys honestly there isn't much to add to that , except that he is a perfect Nemesis , specially to Xitlalli , the Mexican Gaia agent whose whole purpose is to punish men who pretty much represent everything El Cucuy stands for , so it would make sense that those two hated each other , everyone fears the Bogeyman , but he fears someone else , and her name is Xitlalli!!

Recipe: this was so simple it's scary (get it scary , fear demon , man tough crowd!) anyway , the man body was an Army of Darkness (one of my favorite movies) Evil Ash , combined with a McFarlane Dragon (God knows witch one ,cause I don't , sorry!) , legs , wings, horns , tail , little arms , heck! I even used (after much retooling and cutting) the dragon's head and combined with his right hand , the original color of both pieces match perfectly , so NO PAINT was necessary this time (pure kit-bash!) , notice that also I removed ALL extra armored parts of the Ash figure (to use in some other custom in the future) and left it bare , specially the head (he look far more scary like that) , well that it an extra big THANK YOU to my brother MARVELOUS_CUSTOMS for taking the time to come with this very cool idea , GRACIAS HERMANO!! , and hope you like OUR newest(or oldest?) villain into The Realm Universe , Thanks later!

Guess I should be thanking McFarlane as well since both figures fused together were each from his toy lines "Movie Maniacs" and Dragon series , the head was a last minute addition , but worked greatly!

These internationally flavored customs are really intriguing , in Australia, we have something quite similar to this entity. However, our 'monster' even sends shivers down the spines of grown men. From the time we enter our teens, young males are taught that which our fathers, and their fathers before them were taught. We are prepared and given the skills and training necessary to survive the oncoming onslaught that we know we must one day face. This horrific demon is known in our land as 'MARRIAGE'. Ah my friend, many a tale has been told about the evil, soul destroying MARRIAGE, and even worse, the hell spawn that it produces, CHILDREN. But that is another tale, and one that I will share at a later time, once you have gotten over the revelation of MARRIAGE. Anyway, great custom, this is really well put together, and would have to be one of my favs from your stable. Well done Larry.

Well Moe , that's one scary monster , thank God I haven't see it , but somehow I think no matter how much you been trained to face it , at the end it will eat you , as for it progeny , well , that's what my monster was created for , to keep them controlled , at least for a while! , then they evolve into another just as terrifying (or even more) called TEENAGERS , an may Heaven have mercy upon your soul brother!!

Holy crap Hermano. If that ever appeared in my room as a kid I'd have definitely been far more disturbed than I currently am. That is, if I wasn't eaten by it. Great representation of one of the scarier legends in our culture.

The whole concept was to create a creature that paralyzes you with your greatest fears , he's a shape shifter that can also read your mind , know he actually really looks , we'll never know and for that mater do we want to!?

Holy crap bro, that looks scary as hell. Lol. I always feared El Cucuy as a child, but even more when I misbehaved. My parents and relatives always said, behave or the Cucuy is gonna get you. A pretty messed up way to discipline Mexican children but it always worked. Lol. Now I get to see what my childhood fear looks like. Great job creating him bro, I always imagined him looking like a winged goblin like creature. Gracias a ti tambien hermano por la oportunidad de ser parte de esta idea.
