The Korok Cannon is a rather overcomplicated piece of machinery and is a fun way to launch a Korok off into the skies while it searches for its friend. While sending Koroks off to the skies may seem rather mean-spirited, it is undoubtedly quite the spectacle. The parts include:

4 Springs
A Korok attached to a wooden platform
A sloping platform to place the Springs on during takeoff.

7) Rocket-powered hoverboard

A Zonai Powered Rocket

8) A giant unicycle

Rectangular Wooden Platforms

A Large Rectangular Wooden Board

10) A mech

This is possibly the most complicated and most impressive build thus far in Tears of the Kingdom. It takes several forms and is a fully fledged destructive monster, annihilating everything in its path. Additional upgrades include fans and rockets for aerial capabilities. A basic build of the machine includes:

2 Beam Emitters
2 Cannons
2 Carts
2 Construct Heads
A Sled
A Stabilizer
2 Stakes
A Steering Stick

Players should keep in mind that these builds are in no way final and are subject to further customisation. Furthermore, the amazing freedom allowed via Fuse and Ultrahand will definitely make for exciting new inventions in the future.
