I don't really want a dinosaur to be like the chameleon. yeah I know the clubs have been done but ANYBODY ELSE GOT AN IDEA I really cant think of any sort of weapon for them. And yes the heads would be able to open and close, else I would say to heads, one open and one closed. And about the bigfoot, I just wanted to say that bigfoot is alpine while yeti is himalayan. It doesn't matter just wanted to say that.

OK, cool.
It is difficult to think up new/different/variations of weapons. Here are some crazy ideas: a Venus fly-trap club? ... A two-piece ballista (tri-pod is 2nd piece) that spring-fires spikes? ... A finger-powered mini-catapult? ... stone hammer and chisel? ... a bird-dart (Flintstones inspiration)? ... a pet velociraptor on a leash? ...
Off topic - when younger, did a lot of research on Bigfoot, Nessie, UFOs, etc... I currently hold to a bizarre-sounding theory on Bigfoot.
New Species time!
Currently, the basic xevoz body plan has 15 parts - head, body, two arms and two legs. New figures could have new shapes to exponentially add to the custom figure possibilities. With that in mind, I submit the most unusual species - space alien Tri-Angulans (may need a better name).
Body plan still has 15 parts, but is three-sided. Looking down, they have a rounded triangular body plan (instead of oval). The waist and chest have three equi-distant hip/shoulder balls. Each leg has a foot and a long leg section, while each arm has a hand and a long arm section. So, you have a head, body, three arms and three legs.
The head has three eyes, spaced around the head (can see in all directions, but only 3-d focus in three narrow arcs). Eyes are almond shaped, but stand vertical. The waist and chest are taller than normal, and the chest has three single-peg holes, spread around. Imagine using the parts - a three legged Bio-Mecha, or a three armed Sectoid. Overall, as tall as most neo-Sapiens.
Being high-tech space aliens, they have several bizarre items/equipment/weapons. Mystery is a by-word of these guys, primary color is a dark one. There are at least three character ideas. One is the mad scientist type, the other is the stranded cast-away (more feral in look and equipment, colored dark brown), the third is ...
Dimensional Scout - Dark purple overall look, maybe speckled with white dots. Armor is like the Shield Breaker (clear energy), but has curved outlines. One of the accessories is a Buck Rogers ray gun (complete with fins and ribs). Has a hand-held personal tele-porter.
Maybe have a funky spear that is clear plastic but painted dark color in various ways so it looks like the spear is warping in/out of reality.

Hey Zilla, what about some kind of trident? I don't know if you've done that one yet or not.

Just a thought. Half lizard amphibian type creature. Give it fins like a fish/dinosaur and bottom half could be all tail like body. Had the idea for a custom of my own but non-Xevoz of course.

Not a Shark, a Lizard man. I thought that'd be right up your alley.

Feeling off lately. Might as well post my rough thumbnails (done on 5" X 8" cards instead of my usual 8.5" X 11" or 9" X 12" pages) anyhow.

Furry one with a gun reminds me of a Brute.

Hmm, I thought that the staff weapon for Chameleon ended up looking like a cross between a broom and a vacuum cleaner. I guess that's ok since he can always fall back to his katana. I just had some difficulty coming up with something original for the other two concepts. Just feeling some "artist's block" I guess.

There's not much you can really add to Bigfoot or a spinosaurus. I don't think of the chameleons venus thing as what you said. I figure it would be a, to use a wizards term, familiar. A familiar is a sentient entity that helps a wizard do things such as cast advanced spells, help find bespelled artifacts and runes, and also just generally keep the wizard on the right path. The venus thing would be able to talk and, when connected to the ground, it could probe the earth for runes, other plants and mineral, and maybe life forms.
