Usually Ogoh-ogoh based on a Butha Kala, Butha Kala is a demon or devil. They have a scary face as you see on those photos.

I dunno exatly what those Butha Kala name on photo above. The left one looks like a King Kong, funny King Kong with a red lip color. What lip color brand he wore. He looks more pretty with a flowers as his headband. The green one looks like a dragonfly, so unique. This is the first time I saw if a drangonfly have many hair on their bald head. Btw, those Ogoh-ogoh made by a kids. Wow…They have a great talented!!! Oughh I can’t waiting of this Ogoh-ogoh festival next year………
