Actually there are three very similar models but only the Slayn one has useful animations and attachment points. The other two just stand around and occasionally shoot a beam into the sky into the sky while the Slayn one can be used as a turret.
True The whole xelnaga thing got pretty Lovecraftian for no reason. Was meant to be Kerrigan and a protoss going divine but then they threw it all away with the weak tassadar shoehorn.

I originally thought it was meant to be the neck due to the low rez (and I have played SC1). As stated until I see some original concept art I am undecided.
Well until blizzard gives use a high def remake I doubt we can make out certain features based on how many x how many pixel sprites? Anyone know any concept art sources?
Probably going to get the full model with the next patch anyhow.

Think he means the Glaze concept created by the Model Material actor type.

Nope, completely different model.

The Slayn Missile Turret is also similar.

True too many good models were just doodads. Like the floating temple series those were just made to be slowly peeled to the floating crystal beneath.
Although the amon hybrid body was just sloth.

Would a texture swap and Set Opacity actor event not have gotten the same effect?

Think he means the repair bot seen in the hyperion hots mission. Just add new animations to that.

The primal drone model would have looked better with a double finned tail and a ridge down the back.
