Kona (Mad Scientist) is an alternate skin obtained in Season 7 - A Paranormal Pigmas. He is obtained at Tier 5, at 1 hour and 30 minutes.
Appearance[]
Similar to his regular skin appearance besides the clothing and extra details. His face is slightly different with more detailed tufts of fur, a darker fur tone, a small black line that draws down from his nose, two small black cheeks, triangular ears instead of round, and black horns as well as lacking whiskers. During his jumpscare animation, it can be seen that he has black sclerae, blue irises, and black pupils. He wears a white, buttoned coat with a black apron and belt. His sleeves are tucked up and he wears black gloves, pants, and shoes. The top left part of his head is covered with blue ice, partially covering his horn and ear. His right arm is also replaced with a blue icicle.
Animations[]
Idle[]
When idle, he leans onto his right foot which is pointed out toward the side. While doing so, he rotates his head slightly in a circular pattern and lifts it along with his left shoulder. His right arm is constantly shaking with his left leg in front.
Walking[]
He walks forwards leaning to the right, almost to the point that his icicle touches the ground. He bobs his head to the left and right.
Jumpscare[]
He lifts the lenses from his goggles and holds your right shoulder with his left hand while bending forwards. He then moves his right arm back and then stabs you with his icicle before lowering his lenses.
Stunned[]
Looks up and puts arms down, with occasional head twitching (overlays the current animation).
Trivia[]
- Along with Piggy (Distorted) and Zizzy (Soldier) this is one of the few alternate skins that don't have (Alternate) after the base skin's name.
- He reuses his NPC Counterpart head model from Hello, Employee as both of them were modelled by KaiuDex. Because of this, he lacks whiskers unlike his original skin, making him more accurate to klipspringers in real life as they don’t have whiskers.
- Unlike his original skin, he has irises.
- Also unlike his original skin, he has an icicle for his right hand instead of wielding a blowtorch.
- He may have been based on Dr. Finkelstein from "A Nightmare Before Christmas" as they are both are scientists. This is further implied by the fact that the rewards of the season he came in, Season 7 - A Paranormal Pigmas, were heavily based on A Nightmare Before Christmas.
- However, although Kona can walk, Dr. Finkelstein is bound to a wheelchair.
- He is the first seasonal alternate skin and second alternate skin in general to not be modelled by MiniToon.
- If the skin is used in Book 2 or Build Mode, the burning sound from his original skin plays when jumpscaring a player, despite not using a blowtorch. The sound also continues to play for a few seconds after the jumpscare animation ends.
- He is the only skin in season 7 without a custom death camera. A similar thing applies to Teacher (Decayed). Coincidentally, they are both bovines that wears eyewear and unlike their original variant weren’t modelled by MiniToon.
- A part of Kona’s theme has a reference to “Beyond”, a soundtrack from The Lost Book: Deluxe Album also composed by KaiuDex. This makes him the second skin in the game to reference KaiuDex’s previous soundtracks, the others being Glenn and Sterling.
- Similar to Torcher, his lenses covers his eyes.
- Interestingly, a small segment of Sheepy (Scientist) theme can be heard in the album version of Kona (Mad Scientist) theme.
- He seems to share similarities with Glenn as they are both covered in crystal (in Glenn’s case) and ice (in Kona’s case) and are both modelled by KaiuDex. He also shares similarities with Bunny (Alternate) as they are both alternate skins from a christmas-themed season and are both covered in ice as well as their head not being modelled by MiniToon and differing from their original skin.
- He and Duocara (Mayor) are:
- The only R6 skins in the pass.
- The only skins in the pass without a special stun animation.
Sound Origins[]
- His soundtrack is Lost In Logic by KaiuDex. The album variation of it can be heard here.
- His jumpscare sound is TBA
