Now I know most people probably were confused by that title. I know pipe cleaners are an unusual medium to sculpt armored defenders of justice with, but I gave it a shot. I hope you all like them!
Gali
Kopaka
Pohatu
Lewa
Onua
Tahu
Edit: No more glitching, Tahu is up, and thank you Spinjitsu Master for letting me know.

This is just... Amazing. I can't explain how awesome this is. I can't really critique it either just because of how well made it is. I guess the only downfall is the lack of the actual nuva armor. Other than that I think that this is just awesome, really well made. I think my favorite part is that you even gave them eyes.

This is absolutely epic. Even as pipe cleaners, they all look awesome and the colors actually look pretty accurate. My only complaint is that there's no Nuva armor to come with it. Awesome job on this!

Wow! Thank you! My excuse for not including nuva armor is that they are in their adaptive armor forms, but that really doesn't cut it. Thanks for the comments!

Wow, they're very nice. Even though it's kind of odd, their appearance really makes me think of how they've always been pictured, dunno if you catch my meaning... Nuva Armor would have been a good add, but I guess that, first of all, they must look good at the author's eyes, right? Excellent job anyways. I especially like Kopaka, great job on him, IMO. Overall 8/10

Not exactly something I expect to find on here everyday... So thumbs up for the creativity! They are all easily recognizable as the Nuva. No real flaws that I can think of, as this is the first time I've seen something like this. Nice job!

I dont think I can really judge this seeing as I have never seen like it. It looks well done, but I have never imagined fuzzy toa nuva before!

Does Scavenger Va mean that I am downgraded?  :smilelehvak: ^man that is a big filesize! If you really like your avatar, but want to have one of these, ask for a smaller banner.

Oh man, that's cool. That's a very interesting medium, and you get bonus points for trying something new. Kopaka looks awesome.

The only flaw I can see is the Pohatu has massive hands while Lewa has skinny legs. The models could be slightly more symmetrical, but that's nitpicking.

8.5/10

Extremely creative concept, well executed.

Thanks everyone, I never expected to have this much positive feedback.

The Renegade Emperor: I actually know what you mean, I tried to capture their spirit more than their actual appearance. It's nice to know I succeeded! P.S. I love your sig. Just a random comment.

~The 1st Shadow~: Thank you very much! Yeah usually I do animals in this medium, but hey, everything is better with Bionicles.

~garniria returns~: Thanks a bunch! I would try to get used to seeing things like this, I have a rahkshi in the works. :P

Summer Don't Know: It's always nice to hear that something you made is interesting. :) Pohatu's hands were actually inspired by a moc I saw a while back where he was depicted almost as a soccer goalie, so I felt his hands should be beefed up. As for Lewa, I do see what you mean, I think I was running out of green pipe cleaners at the time... :/

Thank you all so much!

Ah...it is good to see something so fresh in BIONICLE art. Drawings are nice and all, but the uniqueness and accuracy of these is stunning.

I am pretty sure Brickshelf is up again, can we see Tahu?
