VERY cool MOC! Onua shields work PERFECTLY on this MOC. Everything about it is brilliant! (yes, Trunx does soud like something Lego would come up with)

Awesome elephant, I like the way you use both Bionicle and Hero Factory parts, also great name.

[Nytrone]

Dude, that is so awesome! I love how you managed to turn an elephant into looking like a war beast! Very nicely-structured and well-built as well!

I'm also digging that hooked trunk!

[Awesomeness]

Cool! I like the limbs and the "trunx." The only flaw i can see is that the body is slightly rougher than the smooth limbs; not sure if this is intentional or not. Other than that, great job!

[~Kodan~]

Whoa, this thing looks awesome...

Nice use of the white HF armor for the toes. It might look a little better if there was more HF armor on the body itself, particularly the sides, to keep things looking a bit smoother and cohesive, but other than that this looks flawless!

Have you procured any of the smaller white HF panels in the interim since this was first posted? I know you don't have an amazing tendency to go back to finished products, but I'd especially like to see this with those, and with the grey HF limbs from the newer sets to replace the trunk. As an aside from the actual contest entry, you know. Also, I still wish this had some bulk on those legs, but the optical illusion the different orientations of the large panels provides still helps those thin-as-all-get-out legs from look too embarrassingly nonelephantine.

I think I already replied to the old topic, but I'll say it again: Awesome MoC! The legs seem a little weird and should maybe be thicker, but everything else is perfect. I should go re-post my entry for this contest if it's still going too.

Gorgeous! I especially love how you used those shield pieces as ears! 10/10 just for that, honestly.

Brilliantly done! I love the whole thing! Though I do think there could be some more HF plates on the torso to make it all seem like the same model, if you see what I mean. Other than that, this is great!

[Obsessionist]

I feel like the greeble-y body in grey clashes a bit to much with the primarily smoothe HF-based extremeties, but every individual part of the build is brilliant, in particular the feet and head. It does look fantastic, but I think you may be better off with it being either HF or Bionicle, or a more even mix of the two.

[Zaxvo]

Wow. I must say, this is very well done. It looks very sleek and it certainly resembles an actual elephant.

One flaw that I can see lies in the joint between the leg and the body: it looks extremely feeble and out of place compared to the rest of the creation.

And yes, I wouldn't be surprised if LEGO released a HF set named "Trunx"

[Akuna Toa of Sonics]

I think you perfected the use of HF torsos as feet.
The head, body, and trunk are amazing, too.

[GeluNumber1]

The mouth is rather good; I also like the feet. The chest is rough compared to the legs, though. Otherwise, awesome MOC.
