>>11574167Actually, the MOC is from 2006. Much earlier than Hero Factory. And the model of the Hero Factory reporter girl was partially based on this MOC.
>>11574167It's the leg and food design they copied over, this is long known
>>11574066Oh cute
https://youtu.be/tfQA-a44enkSiIvaGunner released a tribute to 2000s set leak coverage
It's odd that boob Bionicle customs have been around for so long, and we are currently in the golden age of Lego knock off companies, but nobody is making boob Bionicle kits.
>>11574330It's no secret that the bionicle fandom is full of porn-addicted autists, but do you really think there's enough demand that a chink company would reproduce dozens of 20+ year old molds for something so niche? Most people would just buy a model kit, which has the added bonus of not looking like total shit.
>>11574337No, but even moderately popular mocs on Rebrickable that use modern pieces (mostly system) very often end up aliexpress.
>>11574337>bionicle fandom is full of porn-addicted autistsLiterally any fandom is full of that, we're not special
>>11574406>everything I dislike is posted by the same guy self-replyingHoly shit, take your pills
>>11574357Not really relevant since as you said they're mostly system. I imagine the parts are sourced from chink companies that just copy current Lego molds. They probably have some kind of bot that automatically checks if the parts are actually available for any MOC they want to steal.>>11574363Never implied they weren't. Bionicle does have that extra layer of autism due to its niche though which inevitably leads to a higher concentration of coomery and troonery.
as a kid i used to be a "sword in the side hole"-er but now as an adult i think i'm more of a "sword in the front holer"-er :)
>>11574548
>>11574467Then allow me to walk back my snippy response, you're absolutely right. There is an extra layer of autism to Bionicle especially.Anyways I need more people locally to start selling bulk parts, I don't want to shell out a ton of money for specific parts from Bricklink assholes.
>>11574337I didn't mean straight up reproductions, I mean take that idea of building blocks kits that make big titty robot girls and run with it.
you now remember fatdaka
>>11574312Need to find the parts list and make this
>>11575048I've heard the fan who made that boxart released instructions but I don't know where to find them
>>11575063Saw someone on plebbit post they bought the parts but then they never shared the instructions. On that note I still need to buy the parts for Melding Teridax, but I'm still locked out of Bricklink.
>>11574066Holy shit her legs are ripped straight from the hentai bionicle hero factory’s been dead ten years I thought I knew all the fun facts This is like when you see a really obscure picture of nirvana after loving the band for years
>>11574567This is true, I spit on people who pose with the bottom grip on their mocs
Moms on Ebay are more creative than at least 90% of MoC-ists here
>>11575202You say that as if it's not their son's moc
After noticing >>11573698 I've gotten curious, do you guys have other autistic observations to share?
>>11575166Jealous, I hope you have a good time>>11575005I never forgot, anon. She's an inspiration
>>11575205Gali mata and onua legs are upside down compared to the rest.
>>11575458Isn't that one super known, at least for Gali? In a way, she's as much of a precursor to sexy bionicles as Roodaka.
>>11575259>>11575266Back, jesus christ I am in so much pain from all the walking and squatting, kinda funny the best order of bionicle parts I made was 20 bucks, and one third of it was an already filled cup somebody had abandoned. Got some decentish parts as well and some minifigs (plus the one weird martian is gonna have two arms now), overall day price was 250ish dollars but I had fun
>>11575205Boggarak and Keelerak are the only Visorak with the exact same set of limbs, while Oohnorak is the only one that uses a shorter double-socket piece.
>>11575519>>11575259Looks like I found a piece I would want for a Dark Hunter moc, maybe making a cyclopse or one eyed creature would be a good idea, or one eye being blacked out, which would be better. For a general pallet I think gray, red, and yellow would work best with what I got for odd shit pieces, and a lot of them in yellow
>>11576019unfortunately my MOCing is on hold until I can access Bricklink again
>>11575205Krana Ca grants shielding powers, which is reflected by it looking a bit like a Hau
>>11576145While I'm at it with kranas, can anyone who owns at least one of each form tell me which are compatible with tohunga heads? Is it just Ca that falls off?
Mahritoran feet like this
>>11576157or like this
>>11576158or this
>>11576157
>>11575204I don't think changing the head of a rahkshi counts as a moc
>>11576234>7-16This is a little embarassing.
Got a Takutanuva mask for 40 bucks, it's in a relative's house so I have no idea if I got the original or a bootleg, sigh.
>>11576582I guess I'll ask him, if he agrees I will post pics.
>>11576778He took the pic and also mentioned that the back said Lego, so I got the original one yay.Can't believe that some years ago it cost less than 30 dollars, when now they range from 50 to 80 bucks.
>>11576778Btw I love gitd pieces, I recall an anon posting Hordika Vakama with gitd eyes and he looked menacing.
>>11576892One eyed bonkles needed to be more common, oh well the good thing is that some of them can be built that way.
>>11576741If I'm gonna mess with those joints I'm probably gonna be using Galidor pieces before Knight's Kingdom
>>11574567This is true until you need to pose with Polearms and spears, then front becomes the only viable solution
>>11577107noice
>>11577046OrhaI just play to guess the Koro by the colours
>>11576436
Anyone got good word about Ziontryo's customs or others? I did get a MoUP from Buryu a while back and that was alright.I nearly bit the bullet on some of the custom scrap masks Ziontyro did but held back. Same with the eyestalks someone else put out today. But I'd rather make sure the parts are solid and not trash in quality or even color for that matter.
why the fuck is bricklink shipping so expensive? like in what world is €6 worth of parts worth €15 shipping?
Was Maxilos designed as a Makuta set or was it a happy coincidence? The colors, Hau-like mask like his MNOG incarnation, and having two masks of life as shoulders like 2003 Makuta's Avohkii hands give me that feeling
>>11578003Too bad I don't have access to Bricklink haha. Apparently they're "aware of the issue" and will have the fix out on Wednesday. But I also need to grab those wings, they're cool as shit and I wish I got that set as a kid.
im surprised at how shit my taste in bionicles was as a kid.You're telling me i picked VOROX over MALUM or SKRALL???what was I THINKING?!
>>11578380I remember standing at the shelves deciding which set to get for my birthday, I picked Takanuva over Makuta because I thought the 2003 Makuta set looked weird with the mask hands and strange legs.Got him 14 years later and child me was completely correct.
>>11578003>>11578177I've wanted those wings but every lot I've seen them in they're bent out of shape to an absurd degree.>>11578003I don't even know where to start with this though. Like what, weird constraction parts? Or just weird fucking parts in general?
big g3 news coming
>>11578671I'll see what I can dig up and put a wishlist together
>>11578821Thanks, got something of one already built up from /lg/
I will never not be mad, fuck Lego, fuck them with a horse dildo.
>>11578454the wings are super flexible - they won't rly b able to hold any stiff shapes (i have 8 of the wings)
>>11579256My HEROES
Gonna buy more bionicle stuff and spray paint tomorrow, gotta get to the back room for it
Still locked out of Bricklink, the supposed account fix did not work lmao
I gotta look for plane pieces or something
Found the exact spray paint I used as a kid, just may contain a small amount of acetone so I’m cautious, figuring out how to keep the small wings up is a small ordeal in of itself too
>>11581608>purpleAw shit Toa Vorikii incoming
>>11580805Was out all day today but my account finally got fixed and I am able to blow my paycheck on Legos.
>>11582232Yeah I went to find a store with the last Galidor armor piece I need and the guy has a lot of Galidor pieces so I've already racked up a $60 cart. Gonna sit on it over night and probably buy the stuff after work when I figure out my money lmao
Man. It's really been ten years.
I dug out some sets I'd stored built. Their CCBS joints are very stiff for some reason.The Masters look sorta iconic despite their goofy builds. The Uniters on the other hand, not so much. I didn't like how hueg the toa got, or their big body plates. And then there's Uniter Lewa's arms. I'd never noticed how goofy short they are. And their build is hostile to posing. I wonder if there are any nice revamps of the Uniters.
>>11583164I remember seeing orange bohrok in a comic.>Are there any useful parts within them or noI would argue Uniter did but my parts library is kinda small.
>>11582374>>11582386yeah I'm trying to hoard Technic constraction pieces, like Roboriders and Throwbots. And of course Galidor.
>>11579256Ivdont think they can ever do bionicle again because they completely abandoned construction and they are so woke they probably see them all as voodoo niggers because of how they started as cool voodoo shit
>>11583455Maybe the Lord of Skull Spiders and the the Uniter Creatures then.https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?S=70790-1&name=Lord%20of%20Skull%20Spiders&category=%5BBIONICLE%5D#T=Ihttps://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?S=71301-1&name=Ketar%20Creature%20of%20Stone&category=%5BBIONICLE%5D#T=I
Also take a look at Witch Doctor, Rocka XL and Von Nebula.https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?S=2283-1#T=Ihttps://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?S=2282-1#T=Ihttps://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemInv.asp?S=7145-1
>>11583422Might fuck around and use a Galidor torso for a vehicle base like the one submission to RR Slugger's Time Drifters thing. Ordered a Euripides and Ooni torso in my lot just now.
>>11584327Bitchin car!
>>11584975Yeah, my friend keeps telling me I need to get some sort of organization for my Lego bits. Need to find where he bought all his drawers that he uses for his Bricklink inventory.
>>11574567Glad I'm not the only one who thought this
Is $20 fair for a rare fan-made recolor of a mask? It was never released in the specific color.
>>11586263this, I've always been curious about fan made masks from high quality sellers/pre 3D printing days
>>11577767for etsy sellers, just contact them. they're usually pretty chill and prefer doing custom commissions. i think there's a discord that hosts most of the sellers.
>>11586263>>11586686Yeah, I gave in. I've been 50/50 for the past few months, but after missing out on the transparent yellow rau, I thought "fuck it"
av matoran > hordika
>>11587426Sick, yeah, not enough of the mata tools had many recolors, Lewa's mask most of all.It's a black Mahiki, the photos just aren't too clear. I'm thinking of making another Mahri Matoran, since I have a lot of parts for one more. Maybe Black/Dark Gray/Dark Orange (Gukko/ Puku). I'll make it up in Studio and see how it matches.
>>11587426>>11587559It'll go well with my other 3
>>11587559Lewa's ax*
>>11587600Check'n your dubs.Yeah, unfortunately there were never many dark orange parts made, so I may have to get creative. I wanted to go for a 'rusted' look.
>>11587600do you have any plans for any of those parts?
>>11587821You mean Vezon? Vezok had a spine afaik
>>11587821You pretty much answered your own question. It would get in the way of the cape and ruin the Ignika gimmick. If you want a lore explanation, Vezok took the spine in the divorce.
throwbots are KINO
I plan to give Pikachu a shortstack take on the sexy Bionicle treatment.See you guys next year
>>11574066What? Bionicle is back? I thought lego discontinued the line. Who is buying that? The new designs look weird. Like, it's not for kids, but it's not hot either.
>>11588574This >>11588670, RAICHU on the other hand...
>>11588670Maybe you could use the printed plate to evoke a busty nerd wearing a Pikachu top>>11588796Zased
>>11574312man. i wish we got Pit Brutaka. what a cool fucking concept. always used to dream about what he would have looked like when reading the book/comics.>>11576158this is the correct way, the others are too big imo
>>11577012patrician method, here's a (you)
>>11588983there were so many missed fanservice opportunities. umbra w an exclusive kanohi wold have defeated the purpose of him being a set to use up unsold parts but it would have been sick af.
>>11588574Damn. A one-year ban for posting a furfag moc?
>>11589276too short if you ask me
G3 reveal at NYCC... please...
Don’t know what you guys are discussing, but I got a cheap temp container for my bionicle parts at a dollar tree, and some string thats basically lego string for cheap, some guy linked it in the lego general but https://www.hobbylobby.com/yarn-needle-art/cross-stitch/floss-thread/310-black-dmc-pearl-cotton-thread---size-8/p/34943 is the stuff I got, thanks to him, just have to figure out a stud to weave through, or something like a knob, point is my collection of bionicle stuff is growing for making the vehicle moc
>>11587821iirc the piraka spine/ tail is due to some other creature attaching themselves to the spines of skakdi, it's native to their island but doesn't exist outside of it since vezon never went to the home island, he never got the spine
>>11590599that's so gay, I hate gregshit so much
what's up with people on ebay selling really common parts for exorbitant prices? guy selling G2 masks for 10 bucks
>>11590599nah, they just get parasites on their spines, the parasites don't cause them to have spines
>>11590599>>11591904It looks like they're only ever mentioned in a brief footnote in the encyclopedia and nowhere else in-canon.This is the same book that retconned the shadow toa fight so I wouldn't think much of it
>>11590599>>11590717>>11591099>>11591904>>11591973Also Greg said in a form post that the Piraka only had them when they were on Zakaz, not when they were on Voya Nui. It's glup shitto useless information
A lot I just got had cut up nuva weapons, they look kinda cool ngl>>11592020The fuck, is that a prototype or something? Where did you get that?
If Matoro was a Hero Factory character, do you think he'd be called Matthew Oro?
>>11592423Not that much, there was a Jala with a missing torso (caved in and bricklinked it), and a bunch of Bohrok pieces and a lime krana
>>11587426i got the catalogue w these pics in it a while back, funky ass prototype designs all around
>>11574066any parts or sets you've been meaning to get but haven't been able to recently? I've been looking for a VMKK in good condition but most of the ones I've seen are chipped or scuffed :/
>>11594156You still have the magazine?
The Metru Nui movie was not as good as I remembered it. To be fair, when I first watched it I didn't even know English. I just saw the name Bionicle, kept watching and for some reason the blue Bionicle made me feel strange.
I need to think on some parts usage, but will wash some bricks tonight. Anybody seen any good bionicle mocs using the xpods pods in them? A lot of weird parts in my collection of old
>>11594622Got another one, though more damaged, washed it off and leaving it to dry, man I have a LOT of pieces in storage
>>11594659Also got more bionicle from the basement, so thats two big bags to wash now, some experiments with pieces, and yeah the two-mask combo doesn’t look too good. Got some complete wing sets and a lot of disassembling to do but thats for the future
>>11594622Always wanted to try using one of those as a kid but never got any of the sets.
>>11594844They’re pretty cheap on bricklink, I advise trying to get one or a few
>>11594582Can't relate, I remember complaining about the movies' quality back in early elementary.
>>11595195I understand, but imagine how excited a kid gets when he randomly searches bionicle on early youtube and sees a feature length movie in the results. That experience is downright magical.
>>11595951I dig the pruple one
>>11596497yeah there's a few colors that have like one or two pieces that are usable and the rest exist in non system compatible form, or worse, Duplo exclusive colors
Can someone take a photo of all three of Uniter Tahu's masks together?
>>11596833Shame I had to take apart my half finished childhood MOCs to make the big guy I'm still working on. Need to order some 7L silver tubing to finish off the legs and then figure out the remaining arm.
Was this on purpose?
>>11599114Sidorak's head still gives me a headache looking at it.
>>11599141>Even in 2005, Roodaka chooses the bear over her simpDamn
Thoughts on female Vezok?
>>11599634>slurpy
I want him.
Why does he have bigger tits than Roodaka?
Sorry about all the deleted posts, had a spat with you know who, man this place is dead as hell, but heres the old childhood bionicle bits washed. If you want to see any of the other posts in this thread just use the archive, sorry
>>11600129those aren't "tits" you imbecile troon >>11599996Elgay samefag
>>11600183>Elgay samefagWdym, this is the first time I've posted in this thread>>11600129Lately I've been thinking, and I think the Rahkshi skulls on Roodaka's chest(/shoulders?) aren't supposed to be interpreted as boobs. For one, they are positioned too high to be boobs. And they don't even look like boobs in the first place.
I just realized I also have a PG Visorak shell, I got it with a nasty stress mark but it cost me less than 40 dollars so it was a steal.

Two ideas for vehicles, one thats plain mechanical and has some sand or dark blue parts, and one with a section of brown and something else bio-mechanical rot, including this piece somewhere on its hull as a pulstual
>>11600590What are we looking at here?
Fuck man I wish they would disable the stupid autosage here so this thread could get back to a regular pace
>>11600781Concept art I think
>>11600781Some fancy german artist painted Lhikan with tits and for 120 yurobucks (+shipping) it can be yours
