Cool pictures Xavier! One more question, why do Glukkons wear such restricting suits? Naturally they would be able to move about much easier, instead of waddling and hopping, so why have their hands held tightly together?
In China, there is a practice called foot binding, inwhich the person's feet are scrunched up and broken. The idea is, they're too regal to have to walk themselves, and as such must be transported and have work done by others, because it is both below them and impossible for them.

I think the Glukkon suits are designed with a similar purpose.
