Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Player Builds 2-in-1 Vehicle Based on The Dark Knight
One Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom player designs an impressive two-in-one vehicle inspired by the Tumbler from The Dark Knight.
YouTube content creator MitchBuilds published a video that shows the process of creating Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom's King Gleeok out of LEGOs. Since the boss' design is very intricate, MitchBuilds goes through the assembly of the LEGO King Gleeok piece by piece, starting with each of the monster's heads. A combination of custom LEGO pieces were used alongside standard LEGO pieces. Once the heads were built, MitchBuilds shows the monster's long neck and body being put together, followed by the large wings, legs, feet, and tail. This was MitchBuilds' most extensive LEGO project yet, with the video of King Gleeok's assembly being 27 minutes and two seconds long.

The Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom community on YouTube appears to be pleased with MitchBuilds' finished LEGO project, with some fans saying the King Gleeok project is one of the best they've seen so far. The use of custom blocks and pieces was essential to creating a LEGO King Gleeok, and some fans are interested in using some of the ideas shown in the video for their own LEGO projects. Similarly, players have been inspired by the boss fight and created a King Gleeok mech in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom by using Ultrahand.
Players who have yet to encounter King Gleeok in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom may get some practice by heading to specific locations in Hyrule and fighting the Flame, Frost, and Thunder Gleeoks. However, it's recommended for players to acquire powerful gear and various health and stamina upgrades first, since the Gleeoks can quickly deal a lot of damage to Link. The King Gleeok's three heads are capable of dealing fire, ice, and thunder elemental damage, just like the aforementioned Gleeoks.
