Sorry about forgetting everybody to make a new thread, was too busy arguing on the other one. Should re-start the custom masks discussion from past one though

Post your actual mocs and strange parts. I have these clutch testers I feel would be funny to try and incorporate, the milky white one being the easiest since its a technic balljoint

Because this is sadly the least bad place to discuss Bionicle online. Anyways check out this guy on bricklink’s moc using a bionicle canister as a part

How these green ones work? Some crazy parts brother. I havent made a new moc in years now unfortunately.

The IP may be dead but our fandom is passionate. New art, animations, custom sets and competitions are created every year. Idk how someone gets into bionicle though I can’t imagine many of us are below the age of like 25. My lil bro is into it but that’s only cuz of me.

How to grip them? I have 0 idea, since any grip is basically useless on the green ones due to their odd shape and nonexistent connection point besides the stud on top, only idea I have would be technic minifig hands but thats it, the milky white one is a nice trophy on a belt, and the clear one could be a cool eyes piece with enough fuckery since its the only mixel joint in non normal gray color out currently, also that sucks lol

repostan this guy's moc and my sketch

To rehash: I like the top-heavy proportions with the skinny legs, although the midsection is a bit bulky, and doing something custom for the legs could make it more visually interesting but may be without making them thicker. The wings also make the silhouette very busy, and I think it could go without. Smaller, asymmetric weapons, or something like a weapon+shield combo could also be cool and let the figure stand out more.

(wish I had clearer photos of his torso, but there's no interesting articulation in there; looks like I maybe built off of a Hordika torso, and that's Whenua Hordika's mask on the back)

#3 scoliosis bot

His upper body was really heavy, so his spine was always twisted to fuck. The digitigrade legs were also a bit loose; shame there aren't more small-scale ways to improve friction.

Here's what I think was an older revision where I tried to make the leg stiffer.

the first-gen leg in the series, I think, with no ankle articulation

RIP to all the MOCs my mom gave away along with the rest of my pieces. She gave them to the kids of some family friends after I moved away, and I think the three guys above were still together at the time, along with a few others (one dark green and tan ninja-esque guy with a Zesk head and another attempt at digitigrade legs is what I remember specifically; wish I had a photo). It's odd to imagine a kid jumping in to building with Bionicles without starting from regular sets, so I hope my MOCs gave them inspiration for what they could do with all those parts. And I hope they're still holding up to stress.

Do Glatorian have any natural advantage to the Toa considering they can't naturally use elemental powers or masks?

>Thats actually pretty damn smart
Thanks, but I think the problem was that while it stood well, it wouldn't pose well. What I wish existed was a slider piece, like a beam except it's hollow all the way down except maybe a pin at one end, such that a shorter version of the piston axle with its flat head could slide through it. It'd be low-profile and and add resistance to joints that only need a single degree of freedom.
>Were you ever able to straighten out his back?
I think not. It was only a single balljoint in there, and even if he was always a technically slumped forward it still meant I could rotate the torso. I'm having a hard time imagining if parallel balljoint connections would lose a degree of freedom or not, but that's what I'd try if I were to redo it, and if rotation were lost then a pin with sufficient friction could be used at the hips maybe; 1.5 pin with an axle end plugged into a 2-deep hole would probably be firm for posing with a heavier torso.

The main problem with this guy was mostly in the fatass shield-sword in his right hand; those hoses looping through the back were structural, and kept the flimsy shoulder joints up. Piraka thighs as forearms didn't help.

>your pic
I like him. Reminds me of the style of pic related, from a guy who used to post her regularly. Wish more anons were still posting MOCs, even stud.io stuff. What else have you got?

Just bought my brother Brutakka for his 21st. He’s got Axxon and it’s the only 2006 set he’s missing (aside from Umbra & promos)
