the main reason why i ordered the masks was to get some inspiration for some matoran/ toa mocs
so far i have an idea for most of them, although i'll have to order parts
so far the idea is matoran for the kakama/ pakari/ huna/ hau and an off colour toa of fire for the akaku
not entirely sure what to do with the miru and ruru yet, maybe a plasma matoran and a turaga respectively

In terms of design he's not exciting, but he seems to have the ability to emulate the powers (and weapons? the exact provenance of his non-zamor shooters is questionable) of other Toa, and of course there's the general mystery surrounding him as an apocryphal 7th Inika with an unknown base element. Definitely more interesting as an obscure bit of pseudo-lore, like Shadow Matoran and the like.

Wish they made more pieces in earth orange, that one weird leak thing that happened a year or two ago showing that we coulda gotten a wave 2 mctorans line with much more exotic colors including earth orange sucks looking back since there shoulda been more technic or general bricks in earth orange, at least these saddles will be good to get two of. also finding a saddle at the flea market is dangerous business considering what you're dealing with, just making one custom for the rahi would likely work best since stirrupts are real fragile on the scala one apparently

Turaga with the same build and function as the ones in the sets, or a custom build?
You could use a different color for the secondary. Sand green or olive could be cool and might make you have to improvise around their more limited part selection.

They weren't able to keep up the momentum back then and sales declined, the lack of continuous media probably didn't help, and while it was cool to get different characters all the time, the continually existing and upgrading cast of Ninjago keeps the audience familiar, even to those not actively following the media. Though, they tried that with Hero Factory, so who knows if Tahu and friends could have been the only main heroes for so long (and of course, a fully buildable set isn't quite like a minifigure with alternating prints). It still lasted nearly 10 years, which is pretty incredible for an original theme.

And then G2 had... a lot of flaws, but probably most egregious was the presentation and storytelling. It had some strengths, but it was mostly flash with no substance.

I'd like to think they'd be able to do something better nowadays, but who knows. If they never make more we at least have the stories that already exist.

Entirely possible. Honestly, I'm ok with change, and I know I won't always be the audience. For example with Transformers and the various series, I'll like some, I won't like others, but with that continuous iteration the brand continues to thrive, though the focus recently has turned to the adult fans (I guess kind of like the addition/focus on the Legacy and Legends in Ninjago). I'm not of the mindset that if a new version of a story I enjoy comes out and I don't like it, that it somehow tarnishes what already exists, kind of like G2 and G1, the former's existence does nothing to G1, and if anything it makes us appreciate the depth of it more.

If Bionicle G3 happened and was a character builder via SCCBS, I'm sure it won't be for everyone, but maybe kids will come to like it, and long time fans will get a bone or two thrown at them, while other long time fans will just be happy to support a brand they've enjoyed for a long time. Same thing if it was minifigure focused. CMF Tahu seems to be quite popular, so of course some people are speculating that this was a litmus test of sorts, and who knows.

maybe the lore got convoluted and boring, and bionincle would have benefited from not having a solid timeline. the entire series is about mystery, much like Legend of Zelda not directly connecting it's games with a timeline, so it would have benefitted if a new team was made without direct connection to the previous team but more of a legend with no clear number on how much time had passed

it was for a couple of reasons
lego execs apparently didn't care for bionicle and hadn't for a number of years before cancelling it
part quality started declining in 2007 with the lime issues and then the following years with the square sockets being weaker than the older round ones
the story had gotten too convoluted for kids to follow or get in to
and sales had been steadily decreasing for a number of years, with 2009's apparently being low enough to justify canning it

The joint issue was huge cause these are toys at the end of the day. The story is cool for those that were really into it but you need the sets themselves to be stuff that people want to buy. If you buy a set that breaks you're not gonna want to get another. What was originally something with mask collectability, action features and something you could combine sets together, they became basically regular action figures by the end of it.

I got two tahus. The scalpers hit my city hard for Lloyds and Tahus. So when I finally found two tahus, I grabbed them both. One for general use and one for long storage. Normally I would leave one for a child who'd get some joy out of getting him. But the only people who care about bonkles are millennial manchildren and the scalper douchebags would hoover him up before any children got him anyway. I wonder if LEGO will do the rest of the toa.
I also picked up a Prowler from the Spiderverse cmf series. He was a bit difficult to find, as was Miles and Gwen. Even though I didn't pick those up. I wonder if LEGO is producing minifigs in uneven numbers.

>the story had gotten too convoluted for kids to follow or get in to
I feel like many fans seem to attribute too much importance to the story in this regard. None of the kids where I lived had any idea of the story outside of the movies, the ads and some of the (mostly non-canon) online content. And many kids knew even less about the story. But the toys were still popular. I guess marketing, atmosphere/style and an implied lore were still important. But the main problems were probably the fragile joints, the sameish builds and the rising prices. And in 2009 Bionicle already switched to that plain "generic elemental hero in bright colors" style Hero Factory and G2 also had. That was probably a factor too.
>>11803509
>I wonder if LEGO will do the rest of the toa.
Very unlikely. We only got a Tahu minifigure because there are some Bionicle fans among the designers at Lego and one of them worked on this CMF series.

Thinking back, what really derailed the story for me was Metru Nui. I was well into all the Mata Nui era stuff (I had every book from that era on release) it all built up to Takua becoming Takanuva and giving Makuta a big defeat.
Then it was all immediately thrown into the freezer. A couple of years later, we're finally back to where we left off and Takanuva gets sidelined and the Toa Nuva immediately job. Hurray.

Same here. All I knew was of the Mask of Light but when the story got to the past I couldn’t care less. My mind as a kid was more that I already knew who those guys were in the present, and anything else woupd end up in square 1.
Like even nowadays that I value those things exposing the past of the story, I still feel Metru Nui was a boring arc.

This was a really weird choice. At least one of these things shouldn't have happened. If the Toa jobbed, then you could have Takanuva lead a new Toa team for a time with all his old Matoran friends, or just have the Nuva have to do something else. I get that it was supposed to raise the stakes and introduce a fresh new team, but haven't we learned anything from the '86 TF movie?

afaik bionicle was planned to have this big multi arc story spanning 7 parts which were 3 years each
2001 - 2003 was mata nui, 2004 - 2006 was metru nui, 2007- 2009 was the 'heart island', etc
some time around 2003 some of the older planners began to leave for various reasons, and eventually that was whittled down to just farshtey after 2005
apparently 2004 being a flashback year was always intended, but somewhere along the line it was condensed down into being one year instead of three, then boosted to two after it was decided to not use metru nui for only the one year (which is why 2005 is such a nothingburger for story impact)
i'm not entirely sure what the original 2004 story was supposed to be, i do know that krekka and nidhiki were supposed to be vahki captains and then became dark hunters later on, but i don't know if they were actually characters before that and that the dark hunter autism was entirely farshtey being an edgelord

It's an entire faction of ridiculously powerful one offs that never do anything. Makuta should have killed them all during truce period between Metru Nui and Mata Nui.

i think everyone being really old was part of the original design documents, but the backstory was different
iirc everyone had lost their memories after the gsr chrash landed, the turaga had a little bit more due to spiritual connections at their shrines but still not everything
everyone not on the island was apparently in stasis within the gsr

g2 failed because lego didn't want to market it properly and knee capped it at almost every turn
they were also receiving pressure from disney because it was 'competing' with their buildable star wars figures that were out a the time, so lego decided to cuck out and cancelled their own theme in favour or licenseshit, which immediately bombed because it turns out the reason for the low sales was because 90% of the sw figures looked like shit

I come here asking for knowledge
what sets do you guys think have the perfect balance between playability and aesthetics, I only had the OG Toas as a kid but as cool as I think they are I can't get over the fact that they can barely move. from a quick glance I think the metru nui look pretty neat but I can't help but feel like their torsos seem weirdly empty. and I look at some of the last releases and think they probably have great articulation and whatnot but frankly just look a bit shit.

i kinda like the weird gap between the torso and hips if that's what your referring to, helps remind you that they're part robot
my only real issue with them is that i wish their secondary colour was their turaga colours instead of dark bluish grey, but that might've made them too garish when they're all posed together

Exactly this. Most things were not designed to last forever, and Bionicle was created for a specific purpose we're far removed from today. LEGO's heart would not be in it the way it was back then. Personally, I'm more than happy with fans carrying that torch, and the nature of building toys means there's no end to the characters and stories fans can create (even if 50% of the time that manifests in them giving toy "robots" tits).

I realize this is sort of sidestepping your question, but for my money, as with all things Lego, the best stuff comes out of the community. I also primarily had the first wave (original Toa, Turaga, McToran, etc.), and revisiting them as an adult, like you, I found them pretty limited. So I looked into some community-made articulated Toa/matoran, and I ended up with these two. Honestly couldn’t be happier. They’re both quite solid and playable, and they’re fairly true to the original proportions and aesthetics (and obviously you can customize them if this or that aspect isn’t to your liking).

The design is pretty well lifted whole-cloth from this video: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Pw9FVFQmpug&ra=m

I use a modified Gali torso because I don’t own (and didn’t really want to use) the Megablocks pieces required in the other torsos. I also kept the legs less bulky, and I plan to swap out some black pieces for red.
Whole thing was a bit of a pain in the ass, because the video is long and full of jokes and tangents, and many steps are skipped over, but I can’t argue with the end result.

my primary concern is that eventually the parts will dry up
almost all of the molds are out of production, and as good quality as many of the parts are, connector joints have a tendency to eventually develop cracks

Wasn't it confirmed that when a character gets revived on the Red Star they keep the latest shape they had before death? Like, in one of the unfinished serials there was that rebuilt Matoran with wings who could teleport. I forgot his name.

Yeah the Barraki are actually some of the strongest villains we see outside of the Brotherhood and Dark Hunter top brass.

It’s more of a matter of planning too. The Barraki were all monster tamers and could make truces. The Piraka were all trying to backstab each other for any bit of personal power they could find aside Zaktan, whose big difference was he knew you need help in the long run and even then he needed to quell rebellions constantly.
Fight a Skakdi 1v1 and you are dying. Fight a Barraki 1v1 and you have a time limit for reinforcements to arrive.
Matoro lucked out the Ignika gave him necromancy as a test because that gave him an immortal pocket army whenever needed because the moment the numbers got overwhelming Jaller was gonna suicide bomb.

I remember back they at least bothered justifying why the Rahkshi got demoted to mook-tier. They gave us CDs and all with the sets explaining the Rahkshi and kraata have levels, so basically the 6 anti-Toa Rahkshi sets we got were the highest level that Makuta prepared specifically to oppose virtues and elements (like poison capable of killing goddamn fire). Hell, those guys even came with weird bonus powers like being empowered in the darkness in the Mask of Light movie.
And basically most Rahkshis you find elsewhere were lower level ones that couldn’t compare.
I don’t remember if the Visorak got any treatment like that.

i don't think we ever got a real excuse for why the visorak didn't just immediately kill the hordika, 2005 was entirely a filler year because lego decided they actually did want to use metru nui again but not go with the og plans for metru year 2

I don't really get these poorly made "sexy" MOCs. Don't the builders see these look like shit? Like, this one is so stiff and blocky. And why are the boobs always so high up? My guess is that part of these are just made as a "joke", and the other ones are "token female side characters" in the OCdonutsteel fantasy world of some autistic Bionicle fan who simply just doesn't give a shit. Because if it was made by/for coomers there would be a lot more attention to proportions, shapes, silhouette, details etc. I mean it needs to reach a certain level for your brain to register it as the body of a curvy woman. Though I've also seen a lot of "sexy" MOCs with a lot of effort put into shaping and silhouette that still looked horrible and cringeworthy.

Sorry if this is common but I sometimes feel bad looking back on bionicles.
It was a great toyline and oddly enough the story is better and deeper than I remember.
I just feel sad that the years have gone by.

Anyways what’s the general consensus on perfect tier accurate knockoff bionicle toys?
Think recasts of bionicles parts.
Hopefully the tech is better now so cracks are less likely to appear.

Even though my first bionicle was vezok now in pieces I still feel like what 40k autists would call a “secondary” as I engaged with a lot of bionicle’s story on the website through comics online and the flash games etc.
Please understand my neighborhood I grew up in didn’t have many boys my age to hang out with so I was no different from an iPad kid.

I do want to revisit bionicle again. Have all the comics been scanned properly?

I had what the kids call the dream and it was me in a store reading bionicle comics so I’m a little nostalgia hurt at the moment.

Not to mention their arms are worse than the mata/nuva when it comes to articulation. They have articulated elbows because the shoulder is fixed to the gear function. Always annoyed me as a kid when I actually played with them that I had to remove their arms to connect them again at a different angle to hold stuff with two hands and what not.

I sort of dig the Merry designs, they’re probably the last Toa designs I can actually appreciate.
But I just meant the story/lore. You can’t beat the mysterious, stone-age Polynesian island vibes. An extended flashback to a space-age city revealing that, in fact, every character is not an islander at all, but some high tech goober with amnesia — “this is not a banger”

When have Bionicle featured 6 distinct pieces of armor amongst canisters sets?

I do think masks and tools deserve unique molds. I know recolors usually count as separate elements due to the the different plastics, but if that wasn't a factor, or if they just used paint, they could get away with one mold, possibly, for a set of colors.

Something about "the Crast repels nature so it's bad" which is stupid because they made Krika one of the Makuta to question and ultimately oppose Teridax. Honestly the near total genocide of the Makuta species, even the ones that went against Teridax in the end is one of the stupider story beats of Bionicle. Krika and Icarax running around with parallel universe light Teridax on Bara Magna would have been cool, but fuck me I guess.

Both sets have their shit/situational masks, the Noble masks just hit that extreme as hard as they do the useful one. The Great masks are also more general boosts rather than focused triggered effects.

Does anyone remember the seventh Bohrok? I saw it again in a dream and I know that Seven Toy Theory is a good litmus test for those who remember the prior uni vs those who were naturalized or worse, literally born in this one. I think its interesting that the ‘hunt for the seventh toa’ and the ‘seventh’ toa himself were still included in this uni but the bohrok dreams we shared kinda proves that in the original timeline every faction had a seventh member which is frustrating, since we can all agree on this fact but basically no other retcons come to mind, like if Hitler survived or that thing in India that happened before but hasn’t happened now. you know?

I feel like there's some redundancy in the default assignments. Much like the mentioned already-shit Ruru being worn by someone who already sees in the dark as a racial bonus anyway, we've got the Kaukau worn by someone who can hold her breath a ridiculously long time and the Miru on someone who can use his power over air to slow his descent anyway. Maybe give Gali the Komau since she's big into influencing others and Lewa the Huna to play into the whole jungle hunter thing.

While it is true that a lot of the later masks were outright overpowered, I think it's more that the earlier masks were just simpler concepts. Something like super-strength or super-speed isn't as involved as astral projection or whatnot, but it's not any less powerful for it. As time went on they had to use more complex powers since the old ones were either taken or had been used in a non-mask form.
Of course, since the original Great masks' powers (and those of the Noble ones, if you take MNOG and the Bohrok animations as entirely canonical [which I do, and you're a fag if you don't, regardless of what Greg said]) ended up combined into the Golden masks anyway, giving the wearer free access to any single one of those powers at a time, it's not so much of a big deal if a couple of them are pure utility or underpowered.

Also something like this would make it useful for those outside of Ga-Matorans and let them have their little water buff without it being useless since it can now be used by a Po-Toa to breathe the dirt while tunnelling or a Ta-Toa while under lava, the Akaku and Miru are the two others targeted by buffs but the Miru is letting others fly with you in levitating and the Akaku is super wallhacks or seeing injuries on allies/enemies too, would have spoiled them on the Bahrag potentially but just saying he didn’t notice until too late should be fine for that. Thoughts?

Also for the Kaukau if you think its too op like that, just making it “Breathe ANYTHING but air” like the gills potion from Terraria used to work be a good compromise, with Gali being able to naturally breathe longer synergising too with it
>>11812422
Anyways as I was thinking, make the Bohrok of Light White and Gold, or Yellow and Silver to more closely match the others, since real light schemes are a bit hard to write

the problem with the miru is that the kadin is just more useful in almost every situation due to it being straight up flight
the only way i can see it being useful is if it could target the levitation onto something else
and the akaku is made redundant by the great ruru because that give night vision + x ray

Also to differentiate them maybe giving the ruru constant 20/20 vision at any distance alongside perfect night vision but no or an extremely limited x ray, and the akaku uber x ray as stated before but no night vision aka dark caves are still dark or if you look behind a door it’s dark but you can wallhax/look inside others normally, all this is hypothetical

Regular Kolhii Balls cost only 1 widget in MNOG2, but those were the new, smaller style with a more complex construction, so that could impact the price in either direction. They might also have been discounted since they were being sold to a player in the middle of a big tournament, and of course the Comet was an overpriced premium model (but not so much it was impossible to sell).
All in all, I estimate the market value of one Husi would be in the 5-10 widget range, which is about the price of an Air Bladder, or 50-100 bamboo discs, or 2-5 Lightstones, or 1-2 nails. Mata Nui had a strange economy.

I mean they kind of didn't need it against the Bahrag, the only reason they had any trouble was because they were relying on the Exo-Toa suits. Soon as they got out and started using their powers they won, so there wasn't even an opportunity for them to think of it.
Everything else though... yeah. Only other time they formed a Kaita was so a powerless Wairuha Nuva could make a one-page appearance to get gigamogged by >>11811838.

Literally right there in the name, he's still a member of the Toa Nuva (team) even if he's not himself a Toa Nuva (protodermis powerup), much like Tahu after the end of the main story. Hard as Fartsey tried to split the party, there's still ironically a lot of stuff in 2006 that specifically reinforces his Nuva status. Like when Dume said that Takanuva had to stay behind when they were leaving and Tahu complained that they'd be down 1/7th of their strength, or when the insane canister builder says that they only made Toa canisters (specifically designed for use by the six Toa of legend, or "Mata" if we must) in sets of 6 because making a 7th one would imply that there was a 7th Toa who had need of it and that'd mean that shit's fucked fampai.

His metal molds come from 3D model files, which need to be way more detailed and accurate to what's on studio. I believe the models he has are 3D scans of the actual masks and then touched up to be as accurate as possible, and were provided by other people.

iirc they're first mentioned in 2006 in the piraka prequel book, where he and a bunch of other toa were killed because they were guarding the makoki stone
lihkan was there too, for whatever reason

even greg said the barraki would lose in a 6v6 against the piraka because the piraka are just fuck-off powerful.
reidak alone could solo three of them at a time and apparently his adaptation ability is potentially permanent meaning there's no telling what attacks will do literally nothing to him. thok could make their armor and weapons come to "life" and attack or choke them. vezok pre-split was probably a better tactician than all the barraki, and regardless of whether it's pre or post-split vezok he could just copy their best powers for himself + his own abilities were already strong on their own. hakann took out like three toa nuva in a matter of seconds, could just shoot them with his lava launcher or mental blast/heat vision from a distance. avak's prison power could just execute someone and there's nothing they could do about it. and zaktan simply cannot be killed by normal means.

Skakdi are like africa: barely able to do anything due to constant infighting and being 99% dumb, Makuta maybe made them but whatever, also they have similarities in Toa biology with actually being able to use elements, although weaker due to needing another to really utilise them in a combo, plus not being gender bound on the element as seen with a ga-skakdi (Vezok) being a dude

I always thought the matoran/toa species were created to be the "main" or "chosen" species within mata nui, but given that toa can easily be outclassed and beaten by so many other stronger, random species, not sure if that's actually the case.

Is the matoran species actually special, or are all species given equal standing within mata nui.

For some reason he decided the Kal powers needed to be proper elements and then of course he couldn't just leave out some of them (except vacuum got left out anyway). Iron and Plantlife are just there because Chinese elements.
The odd one out that completely baffles me is Psionics. Why suddenly make an element out of something that has never been treated like one, that requires a whole unexplained concept of "psionic energy" to make sense, and that overlaps with a dozen established mask powers and individual abilities?

I do have to disagree on Rhotukas, at least in the context of their current year where "every random donut steel has a Rhotuka launcher" was the meta. Least it's an actual semi-proper piece getting recolours. Not defending it as the massive downgrade it is, just saying it's not anywhere near in the same league as literally just coloured plastic balls or more gummy squid to accidentally rip in half trying to make their idiotic completely non-functional launchers work.

Also due to them being introduced so late it means we have to speculate a lot more on the pallets of them outside of the confirmed one or two powers, maybe vacuum wasn’t given a toa because thats too evil+rahkshi and air. Back on the point that we don’t know any good alt colors for matoran, turaga, toa, anything for them or even skakdi, and how 99% of the other colors will almost guarenteed not be real parts you can access either

I think that right there is precisely the problem, the thinking was that "vacuum = sucking air" instead of making it an actual power of displacing... well, anything... to create an actual vacuum. Which is at least cool conceptually even if I think it would be stupid to have it as a Matoran/Toa/Turaga element/tribe just like all the other snowflakes.

Pohatu was the one who came up with the name, so there isn't even any specific onscreen interaction to link it to, just "they were friends trust me bro". Still, I do appreciate that this random trivia at least gives us an implication of the normal, casual peacetime interactions between Matoran and Toa that surely happened but nobody ever bothered to write.

Not terribly proud of the lack of sophistication in the designs I was still doing at this point in time (still basically just Inika skeletons), but I think they've got a certain charm, and also working gears.

That was basically my go-to for the longest time, yeah. At a certain point I just picked up the habit of scooping up whatever interesting pieces or uncommon colours I could for Technic/Bionicle whenever I was bricklinking something else so my parts selection is a bit better now, especially for teals and yellows.
I also just got lucky on a few bulk purchases early on which helped. Some metallic sand blue Toa feet for Kopeke as (poorly and indistinctly) seen in >>11814163, for example, came from a mostly-complete Technic Super Battle Droid.

I thought these were sick. A simple skeleton, yeah, but you did a good job designing around it. The Mata torso is also way cooler than any Inika-esque torso from later on.

I saved a handful of pics you posted way back. I'll be saving the new ones too.

For how much I like the Bohrok Kaitas in certain ways, I feel like the Kal Kaitas were much better executed, even if the first was just a Bohrok with big arms and the second one a little too short, with how threatening it looks it'd really benefit from being a little bigger because as-is it's barely as tall as a toa.

I would forget to rotate my damn images, wouldn't I.
Anyway, I'm going with the G2 masks for the team to represent the "adaptive" Kanohi Nuva in more of a default state. I'm going with the gold ones because a) the Toa's original colour scheme with a gold mask is absolutely peak and b) Poharu, Gali, and Lewa's masks don't match their normal colours anyway. I suppose I could always mak Pohatu burnt orange and tan, but I don't have anywhere near enough Zoomer Blue or Zoomer Green parts, and certainly not enough that would be usable for this sort of thing.

It is only now, after I have started to troon out, that I understand why this series has this disproportionately large trans following, and it all comes back to the bizarre decision to stick all the female characters in the water tribe.
That whole concept feels like the kind of thing that the creators only wrote in because they realized one of the main heroes needs to be female and decided all of her tribesmen should actually be tribeswomen for the sake of simplicity. Too bad a bunch of people would later grow up and ask “what if there was a female ta-matoran?” and it all went downhill from there.

I agree. With most of the G2 masks in general, it's clear that they focused on one specific aspect of the original mask's design and blew it out of proportion but missed that there were other aspects to it looking so good. The Miru 'Koto is all about those cheekholes but completely ignores the sleek bullet shape of the original, the Kakama has big fat fucking cheeks far beyond what looked good on the original, the Pakari turns those pits around the eyes into one big pit across the whole face instead of the smooth animal skull/hockey mask look, etc.
Only one I would consider on par with the original is the Kaukau. Obviously much better than the Cowcow Nuva too.

Attention seeking, basically. All those entrants were much more concerned with "being part of Bionicle history" than with actually making something accurate. Like that cunt whose entry in the Helryx contest used a rare trans-blue G2 Kaukau as some sick "teehee did I accidentally use the $1000 factory tour collectible oops that's just one of my normal pieces" humblebrag (thankfully while /ourgirl/ didn't win it forced the TTV troons to brigade the second best option out of spite).
>>11817416
They were both in the same ballpark (Onua and Pohatu are lumped together as "two strongest members" in the 2002 comics when they all had Golden Kanohi and thus free access to Pakari strength) but I'm perfectly willing to admit that Pohatu has the edge.

Depends on personal definition, I suppose. For me, it's anything that uses the skeletal layout of horizontally mounted shoulder/hip ball joints connecting to socket limbs (in other words, the same thing Lego has been doing for the past 20 years because they're creatively bankrupt lazy fuckers). For others, it's only the specific version of that design used for the latter half of G1, characterized by the specific use of the Inika, Piraka, or Av-Matoran torsoes and/or the corresponding limb arrangement of double-socket bones with shell pieces designed for that purpose. Although I personally think that's just overly superlative cope.
In either event, this is both and/or all of the above. See >>11817531.

I don't get why they need to make everything hyper detailed when early sets and combiners did better with 1/20th of the pieces this shit is comprised of
I built it recently so it's the first example that comes to mind, but the japanese Bohrok combiner conveys wings with bohrok body halves, and guns with bohrok head halves + technic beams, and neither of these elements needed a thousand little pieces to be readable or look good, in fact most people notice the mecha influence in the design despite the thing only using pieces from two bohroks

Looks good but Onua would be cooler with a different silhouette. The stubby legs just ain't enough for me, though the forearms and tools are sick. Shame there's no other single piece with the same joint layout as those old Mata arms. I'd be curious to see you swap the forearms for the upper arms (wrist joint goes 90deg to be the shoulder socket), then possibly Mata legs or something as forearms for variety, pic rel.

His Nuva form almost strikes me as pot-bellied. His original form would lend itself better to the skeleton you've worked out, though the Nuva armour pulls it the other way.

Yeah, I was pretty much ignoring most of the design language of his actual Nuva form in favour of something closer to his original design, since I always thought the former looked fucking ridiculous with the tiny little arms and wide hips. Probably will do the same for Pohatu so he doesn't look like a fucking bullfrog.
In truth, I did mostly stick with socket-to-ball elbows in earlier designs (like the Chronicler's Company posted earlier) but I do find that ball-to-socket gives a better range of motion.

Is his head hunched relative to the others you posted? or am I just confused by angles? As-is he has a gorilla-like shape with the long arms and short legs, which seems much more fitting than a bullfrog. Rahkshi shins are also great.

There's definitely something to striking the balance between heroic proportions and the much more machine-like designs of the early days (and Slizers).

>ball-to-socket elbows
I think Ball-to-socket arm-to-shoulder (or leg-to-hip) is ideal, while I think there's some more choice for elbows---I think either works so long as the shoulder is b2s. Though it definitely seems like the more natural choice given the parts selection. It's a shame the Inika skeleton prevailed, since more varied pieces of the Mata leg joint layout would be nice to work with. My only guess is that the limited DoF on one end of most (all?) fore-limb pieces helps somewhat for stability (or at least less wonky posing) in legs, and allows for those pieces to be more multi-use (leg and arm).

I think in the case I sketched though the shoulder articulation should still allow some natural poses you wouldn't get in an Inika-esque model. Say to get the forearm parallel to the ground and in front of the chest (like hiding behind a shield), with the whole arm pointing forward you can rotate the upper arm 90deg about the shoulder to get the elbow joint in the right angle. Sorta how the shoulder works IRL, except it might make the shoulder silhouette kind of weird in that pose.

Yeah, he's still hunched over, although less so than his "real" versions. My vision of Onua was always "creepy-looking gangly hunchback", although I did try to stick with stuff like his somewhat beefier arms.
As to the elbows, it's more a question of compensating for the deficiencies of the shoulder, since unlike us meat beings with our connective tissues it's all skeleton. Strictly speaking, a human elbow *is* more of a hinge joint, but our shoulder rotates at multiple points and at a wider angle. So if you want a moc to be able to, say, cross its arms, you need more sideways-moving elbows.

I always assoomed that Tahu was the first Toa created after Helryx (her being basically a prototype, hence why she has no "destiny" aside from being Queen Glownegress of Glownigger Mountain) and they started work on the rest of the team just after that. It would explain why the Golden Armour was specifically designed to be used by Tahu rather than just any Toa.

I'm saying you can do that with the joints reversed at the elbow so long as you have the extended shoulder joint, at least in your case since the shoulder can rotate in the plane of the body without moving the arm (much). Nuva pads would be pointing up.

Have you tried any other hip configurations other than the upward V and straight down? I was wondering about a downward V, but I'd assume the articulation gets restrictive, or otherwise the parts to pull off that kind of angle are lacking.

A downward V could work in theory, leg doesn't need to bend that far inward anyway (human thigh doesn't cross over more than 45 degrees at the absolute most, it'd be, what, 30 degrees that way?). In truth it would probably make the waist joint simpler since I could just put a ball on the third side of the triple connector and have the socket on the top instead. Something worth trying out anyway, I'll give it a go on Pohatu since it would be thematically appropriate to have something upside down on him anyway. Although I am concerned that I'd have less points from which to attach something down there.
Pic mostly unrelated, but I do wish I had these miniball liftarms in something other than lime or dark gray, or at least more than 2 in dark gray. Would be nice to retrofit the other two I've made with it now that I've seen how it looks.

I mean I could probably think of a few reasons that it would "make sense" that are much, much less stupid than that if push came to shove. Still just stupid to undermine the core identity of Kanohi so hard when the first year's plot was 100% about finding those very visually iconic masks. What's particularly interesting is that that same year (or maybe the year before?) we had Krakua with his incredibly Hau-shaped Suletu, which I think Greg later retconned to just being a visual placeholder for him having a real Suletu (that presumably looked like a less edgy version of Kongu's), so one minute mask shapes are lol whatever and the next it's very important that this specific mask not be shaped like another mask. Fucker can't even be consistent, as usual.

Dark Red and Green, maybe, not fully decided it yet though since yeah, though its tempting to keep symeteicalish for the body design while the mask is obviously two different halves, one side being an inverted face of sorts, thought of something like it being an upside down face with the “mouth hole” being as the eyes, and there being eye holes on the bottom, as in the toa eyes are visible along with the forehead mostly, maybe some tubes on the top that lead down to help the illusion of it being an upside down face. Vents at the bottom, wanted to give something of a unique siloette to it, fucking based the idea off that one touhou girl

I think that's a solid foundation to start from, it sounds like you've already put a good deal of thought into its design. Only thing I would suggest is maybe a simpler shape for the mask itself, like maybe almond-shaped, so that it'll be radially symmetrical. Sort of in a away where it'd be hard to tell the difference if he actually did wear it upside down (hypothetically, of course, it wouldn't exactly work in practice with the mouth peg).
The bigger challenge would be actually making it, I suppose. Do you have any experience in 3d modelling? If you can make the model I'm sure there are services to have it 3d printed for you.

No for real experience, just have a semi good way of mentally visualising it. Going almond shape but making it able to fit around the metru and mata heads is a fine enough goal I feel, or at least having eyes line up with Metru from inside the mouth. That should be a goal, biggest obstacle if its almond shaped is making sure the cheek bones on neither head type collide, I think either extending the sides or the bottom/top sides is a good way to give it a decent side profile too, though I think the sides is gonna be better for possibility on both mata and metru head, sorry for wall of text just actively thinking out your suggestion

>human thigh doesn't cross over more than 45 degrees at the absolute most, it'd be, what, 30 degrees that way?
I was thinking you'd lose the ability to pose the splits, i.e., rotations upwards in the plane of the body. Still limited upwards to some degree with the current configuration, but you've still got lots of room for natural poses.
>put a ball on the third side of the triple connector and have the socket on the top instead
I was thinking that the sockets might be too big to go the other way on that same connector. Like I think the joints would at least be touching, if not intersecting. Could just lay them flat out for Pohatu, since it'd give him the wide hips and flat base; the downwards V would shrink him down there instead.

I was also thinking about pic rel as a hip configuration using Mata feet. Dunno if that would be going too far into coomer territory for Gali though, or how well you could get a connection off the top for the torso, at least since it'd force the back joint way higher up.

>>11818412
>two weeks
Damn. But those connectors are cool for emulating the look of the original torsos. I imagine they also help with stability, but do they impede forward rotation?

In the mean time you could mess around stripping the current figures to Mata forms, sans armour, maybe skinnier limbs. Lewa with an axe would make my day.

Think using feet like that would be far too wide though. As it is the width from socket to socket on the (male) members of the team I've made is about 5 studs and it's on the border of looking too wide, 7 studs would be a bit extreme.

Yeah, I kinda forgot how huge those feet are. Have you thought about a custom thigh bone? The width of those limbs seems to be the main contribution to the overall hip width. Using your hip connector (pt 57585) with a ball on one ip and the other connected to a bone would give you something a little closer to a true femur, but even keeping the joint perpendicular wouldn't be a big deal if you just shrank the distance the limb goes out. Shame there isn't likely to be a 2-point version of that piece, and that this kind of thing probably limits colour options.

In that scenario, it's more that I don't like using a ball flush with a supporting piece in general, because that severely limits how far you can push the ball side of the joint against the sides of the socket (basically, to 90 degrees). I could space it out half a stud, though. It would certainly open up more options as far as attachment points go. Strictly speaking I don't *need* to stick with the Slizer limb pieces since I'm not actually doing Slizers anymore, so it's an option anyway.

The main issue I have with canonizing contest OC MOCs is that most never look like actual, release-able sets. They often use techniques that may stress parts, or connections that Lego would never use, etc.

Compared to the actual retail Toa Hagah, Lego would never release something like this >>11817471.
5 torsos with a ton of additional pieces for each just to make them work as limbs, that just quadruples the piece count.

Most of these contest MOCs seem to be just making things complex for no reason.

most of the winners were just their creators humble flexing the rare parts they have, or how 'creative' they were by making an overgreebled abomination
given that most of the characters were just farshtey's oc's, i find myself being able to ignore their existence pretty easily
