As most people who have loaded the Grox PNG into the creature editor know, you cannot save the creature unless you remove the unique eye and the robotic parts. The parts were actually named after space stage clothing in the space editor, so the parts may have no real names.
The unsavable parts on the Grox were probably created specifically for the particular form of the Grox, because the helmet seems to conform perfectly to the D'Orca mouth that the Grox has, as with the robotic collar, and the mechanical hands and feet are designed to look like the simple organic hands and feet that the Grox have.

Saving with Grox Parts[]
As a general rule, parts that cannot be accessed in a given editor in an unmodded copy of Spore cannot be saved. This includes Grox parts, as well as outfitter parts in the wrong editor and any parts added by mods.
The most popular solution to this is to use this mod which forces any creature to save no matter what parts are used. Be warned, however, that force save does not discriminate--remember to give creatures a name before saving, or else your data could corrupt.
Trivia[]
- The Grox (organic) eye bears some resemblance to the cell eye, Beady Eye as both of them have large pupils and a thin green iris, however if you attempt to create a Grox with the cell eye, it will turn red.
