BBC 65 - FOR THE BIRDS Kahu - Great Winged Rahi [Link to the gallery] So for those of you who are newer to the Bionicle scheme of things, Kahu was originally a species of bird Rahi which were the heavy-hitters of Le-Koro's air force. It was a combiner model for the Nui Jaga sets. Way way back in the day, I built a Kahu (named incorrectly) for a previous BBC contest, but was overall unsatisfied with the overall feel of my creation. It was too docile. Almost pigeonlike. For this contest, I tried entirely from scratch to build something more predatorial while still keeping the feel of the old set and my creation intact.

I'll start off with pictures of the Trans-Blue Rurus. And for comparison, Note the Z-07 code on the front of the prototype, which is the one on the left. On the interior of the mask, the stud that connects it to the head is of larger diameter on the prototype. This is a feature of all prototype Kanohi from 2001. Again, it is on the left. And here's all four of them. They're also much smoother than the final version, and it seems like the plastic is slightly more translucent. Although my normal TB Rurus are a bit dusty.

As many of you know, I recently bought a bunch of prototypes from 2001. They're mainly Kanohi, but there are several prototype tools and other parts as well. They have finally arrived I would love to know who else has some of these prototypes, particularly the Turaga Kanohi and the Trans Blue Rurus. By the way, to anyone I have talked to about these, the Pahrak was not in fact a prototype. Here's the list: -Four Nui Jaga Trans-Blue Rurus with Z-07 code on front of each one -Pohatu Kakama with 5-MG code on forehead -Kopaka Akaku (Had no code) -Lewa Miru with 3-LT code on chin -Two Turaga Vakama & Huna (Had no code) -Two Turaga Nuju & Matatu (Had no code) -Two Turaga Nokama & Rau (Had no code) -Two Turaga Matau & Mahiki (Had no code) -Two Turaga Onewa & Komau (Had no code) -Turaga Vakama, Nokama, and Matau head and feet -Nokama Trident -Vakama Firestaff -Matau Kau Kau Staff -Lewa Ax Tool -Pohatu Mata Feet Additions -Kopaka Mata Sword -Lewa Ax Arm -Kopaka Feet -Pohatu Legs -Pohatu Head -Ball Armor on all three Toa -Two Matoros with one light sand color arm. (Lighter than Huki's. No prototype mask.) -Two Jalas (No prototype mask) -Two Kongus (No prototype mask) -Two Makus (No prototype mask) -Two Hukis (No prototype mask) -Two Onepus (No prototype mask) -Partially prototype Muaka and Kane Ra 6 more prototype McToran are on the way as well, along with several other masks including a misprint Kaukau. (Trans Light Blue) I'm not sure how many of these masks are prototypes. I will be posting pictures of all of my prototypes, but I will be absent from BZPower for a week starting Sunday. I will post some tonight and tomorrow.

Hey there guys! This is a bear Rahi MOC I want to show you: (Click on the image to enlarge it) This Bear Rahi is similar to the Ash Bear. I wanted to make it anatomically accurate to a real bear, except for its big claws. I didn't chose a custom name because the other bear Rahi is simply called Ash Bear, so this is Silver Bear.

Somewhere off in the stony wastes, something is hungry. ^ Click this photo to view the MOCpages gallery. ^ Something different from my usual MOCs... this is my first complete non-humanoid build in months. I'm quite satisfied with it. Sorry for the relatively small amount of photos, but there's really not a large variety of poses I can put a giant scorpion in.Feedback is appreciated. (Also, 1000 posts! Woo!)

Return of the Shadow Chapter 1The PlanThe evil Makuta Teridax had caused countless tragedies and deaths in order to claim the universe he lived in as his own. For a short time, he succeeded in doing this, however the light eventually triumphed over the darkness, and the Makuta was no more. However, Teridax devised a plan B if all was to fail. About ten thousand years before the Great Cataclysm, while Teridax was plotting his takeover of the giant robot he lived inside, he came up with a backup plan. Teridax rushed down to one of the deepest layer of Mangaia and pulled out a spear from his collection of weapons and armor. This is the spear of fusion, a spear with special powers. This weapon could not only fuse two beings together, but could also split one being apart into two. Makuta chuckled in satisfaction. Teridax pointed the spear at the center of his chest as if he was to stab himself, and fired. A great jolt of energy shot through Mangaia, as the Makuta was flung towards a wall, and fell with a heavy thud. When Teridax opened his eyes, he was surprised to see a pair of identical eyes looking back, but though a dark red, and slightly demented Kraahkan. Makuta felt his mind more controlled and organized, but his copy was not as lucky. The Makuta and his newly formed copy staggered to their feet. “You are a vezon of me, almost identical to me in every way except for your armor and mind” the original Makuta said, “so therefore, your name is Vezidax; let’s just hope no one will have to use it.” Vezidax seemed very jittery and instinctual. He scratched, tore, and bit as Teridax easily tied a chain around his neck and brought him down to a deep, remote part of Mangaia and tied him to a wall. Teridax said “If my conscious is ever to cease to exist, this chain will break, and you will continue my destiny.” Teridax then took a small box, and put some energized protodermis into it. Teridax then scraped off a small piece of his Kraahkan and put it into the same box. “In this box” Teridax said to Vezidax, “is everything you will need to continue my quest. Just touch the liquid, and all my memories and sanity will be transferred to you. I will store it safely deep within the walls of your cell, so you don’t become rebellious and get to it before I die.” Vezidax could not understand anything this creature was talking about. In fact, he couldn’t even understand his own thoughts. Teridax soon buried the box within the walls, and closed the door on Vezidax’s cell. Then, Vezidax waited.Review topic

Okay, with the Lesovikk's Hiatus Contest going on right now, I was doing a bit of research, and found out the Rock Lion actually had a model built, but it never got shipped in time to make it into the Rahi Guide book, and thus, we have no idea how it's supposed to look. Then, that got me thinking, and piece by piece I built what I think the Rock Lion could look like.This is what BS01 says about it: StandingIt was mostly the mane that inspired me to do this guy, and I really wanted to try it out. The head was brickbuilt, since I don't have a piece that would look nice, especially in Tan. The red pins in the mane were actually intentional (as you might notice I put black everywhere else), as they are supposed to represent the combusting mane. Sitting SideHere's a nice side view, I used as many tan pins as I could, just to fill in color gaps. I'm also pretty proud of those paws, since they took me a while to figure out, and came out nicely, but unfortunately, it didn't leave room for the "extremely sharp" claws.Sitting FrontUnfortunately, I had to use some MegaBloks pieces, but it doesn't show much. The Piraka limbs for the forelegs were actually mostly unintentional, because I wanted to make it stand up before I figured out how I wanted to make the forelegs, but when I looked at it, I realized it fits very well, and so I added some tan slopes to beef it up and try to keep the color scheme consistant, one of the hardest parts of a MOC with rare colors like tan.Sneak PreviewHere's a shot of the Lion chasing a Matoran, also a sneak peak to my next project that I ordered a ton of pieces for.Hope you like it!

http://www.bzpower.c...?showtopic=7434 <-Epic I intend this epic to be a tribute to classic Bionicle (2001-2003), particularly the Mata Nui Online Games and the Cathy Hapka novels. New chapters will be posted every Tuesday. I expect this epic to be ongoing for a very long time.I will be posting information on the canon of this story in the Review Topic. Though I stay mostly to the Greg canon as I always do, this story takes place in a universe in which the history of the Matoran has been profoundly affected by various invasions, exoduses, and changes in government throughout the history of Metru Nui. Footnotes from the story are also addressed here.FOOTNOTES:Chapter 1: * 1,122 Matoran were transported from Metru Nui to Mata Nui; this was the city's entire population at the time, as a number of mass exoduses occurred prior (the city's population prior to the Toa/Dark Hunters war was roughly 18,000, and before Dume's closing of the gates about 9,500). Those that remained and were taken to Mata Nui are "the original thousand."

Did Vezon or the Mask of Life just come up with the name Kardas for a newly-created type of creature, or was the giant Fenrakk transformed into a member of an existing species called Kardas (possibly with extra powers granted to this specimen by the mask)?

So, I need to clean off my shelves of Bionicles a bit, and I need to get some pieces from them , so I decided to just take pictures of everything I've got, and just post them in a few topics, so expect to see a lot more from me!So, first off is my Nui-Rama Revamp. The Nui Rama set is my second favorite set of all time (after any Bohrok), so I had to revamp it. This is my pride and joy, and definitely staying for a long time. It was originally going to Brickfair, but I missed the deadline, but ah well.Anyways, you don't want to hear me talk about it, so here's the MOC!Side ViewI'll skip front view for now, since it wouldn't show much anyways, so here's the side. A little thin in some places, but I really like that stinger! (I apologize for the blue rubber band, and the fact that there's one there at all )Basically, I saw those Ninjago swords, and thought: Nui-Rama revamp, here we come. Comparison ShotThis thing is big, bigger than the Nui-Kopen Combo model. Probably my most successful large MOC.Not only does it look cool, but I also added in two functions!WingsIn action: 1, 2With a relatively simple set up involving Technic pieces and rubber bands, I got the wings to flap alternately at the press of a button.StingerIn actionI'm not going to lie, this function took a while to figure out, but with a few 4 tooth gears and a lightsaber, anything can happen. It went through a lot of trial and error, but finally, this one works perfectly. Did I mention I love that stinger?So, that's it, for now, comment and critisize away!

So, this is a PBZP for ~garnira returns~, he wanted a blue, reptilian Rahi with silver spines. This is my first ever non-humanoid PBZP! It's got a red tongue and a glowing heart inspired by the heartlights in the Bionicle movies.GalleryC&C welcomed.

Before I start I must say this is my original story. I am not going to copy stories. CHAPTER ONE : Dawn of the Dumb or Jaller and Hewkii's Zombie Daze Part 1 Characters:Axel /Nova: Represents me in this story. He was in-trusted with the Omega key which can bring Bionicles to life and turn him into a ToaToa Matoro: the scientist of the group.Toa Lhikan: Perhaps Lhikan is the bravest of the bunch.Kiina: try not to mention aliens or act stupid in front of her or face the wrath of the nagging beast.Nokama: Acts like a mom to the two matoran Hewkii and Jaller.Hewkii: Jaller's sidekickJaller: a Ta-matoran who wants to leave all the timeIcarax: a really crazy inventor who won't stop annoying everyoneOnua Nuva : my first bionicle.Narrator: One beautiful morning in Florida Jaller and Hewkii are talking under Axel's beach house. I should probably go see what they're doingJaller: Are you sure this "THING" Icarax gave you won't kill us Hewkii?Hewkii: I am confident that it won't. Quit your worrying man.Narrator: What are you two doing under here?*Jaller hides the device*Jaller: Nothing.*At that moment a bottle spilled above the device causing it to hit the matoran and the narrator*In Axel's room*Axel: Has anyone seen Jaller and his pal Hewkii today?All: No, why?Axel: Just wondering. *thinking: I wonder where the Narrator went*Matoro: Come on lets go watch some T.V. I wonder if Ancient Ali-* stopped by everyone*Lhikan: Don't say aliens. remember what happens if you say that in front of Kiina.*Flashback of the main group and other bionicles watching an episode of Ancient Aliens*Kiina: Aliens are real and I know it!!! Whooo YEAAH ALIENS!!!Everyone else: Make it stop!!!* End flashback*Axel: Lets watch the Bionicle movies.Most: Sounds like a plan.Kiina: Aw man. *one marathon later*Onua Nuva:That was great. Weren't we supposed to be searching for somebody? Oh no! We forgot to look for Jaller and Hewkii!Nokama: You guys need to find them NOW!! *zombified Matoran burst in the window*Axel: That's it I just got that window fixed after the Toa Ignika Incident. May he rest in peace. *switches to his toa form Nova (more details later)* Nova: LETS DO THIS! Fire punch!Jaller: Meh *scratches Nova's wrist Zombifying him*Lhikan: That's it nobody turns my friends into zombies on my watch! * attacks with volleys of fire knocking jaller unconscious *Matoro: I'll put an end to this *uses mask of reanimation on Jaller, Nova, and Hewkii* at least it worked on one of them. *freezes Jaller and Hewkii who was walking into the wall repeatedly.*Zombified Narrator: And so trfg duck wrt end of part one. Brains.Onua (hiding behind Matoro): Take him he's the smartest.So ends part one.Sorry if its to short.Anyways the Narrator has become a zombie so his speaking will be messed up for now.As for Axel /Toa Nova he was selected as the guardian of the omega key and transformed into a Toa of space and fire that as a moc is bigger then the Toa Mata Nui set. he is red, silver, and Obsidian with a Silver mask of life.As for the Toa Ignika incident don't ask.

Hi BZpower! This is my first post here, and I would like comments and helpful criticism! (Not like "Oh my gosh that is so stupid, it should be cooler" *walks away*) And most of these are old too, so they aren't super great, but I love them because they are my buddies! *all of them pics here*and herehere tooalso herewait for it......and we're done!So, up there are links to all of them. They're all the same species (I have no idea what to call them, but my brother, Senrab, said I should call them drakes) except the red one with the blue eyes. I don't know what that one is either.*Water*This is my first, and favorite one. He's agile and as fast as the strong currents in the stream in which he lives. His long tail helps him balance in the water, grab onto things, and climb trees/rocks.*Air*This one is one of the flying ones. His wings are kind of like the way that some lizards and other animals regrow their parts, so he doesn't have any right now. He lives in the trees, and like the rest of his kind, he eats squids.*Strength*here is the strongest of the bunch, but with all his strength, he lacks speed and agility. Unlike majority of the others, he has no element, but does have the power of super strength.*Electric*Here is the electric one. he is similar to the green one, being the only other that could fly. Originally, he was going to be entered into the Hero Factory contest, but I never got around to putting him in. *Baby one*Here is the cute little baby one. He has no power, the only one that doesn't.*Toxic*This one lives in the swamp, and its... diseased. And mutated. It's missing a foot, and it spews poison from it's tail, and also the head design is different from the other (actually, the only difference is that it has an extra... eye? instead of the shell thing XD )*cattle thing*This last one i guess is some sort of cattle. It mostly grazes all day, eating and eating and eating. It will freeze or run away if an unfamiliar being comes near, similar to a rabbit. It is completely harmless.I'm sorry if some of the pictures were bad. :(Thanks for looking and reading! (or just looking if thats what you did)

On Matoran Spheres: 1. Do we know what happened to the Matoran Spheres that ended up on Mata Nui? Did the Matoran recover them? Bohrok smash them? Would I be able to find some on an Aqua Magna Scuba diving trip? 2. What happened to Dume's malfunctioning sphere? Would someone be able to recover it from Metru Nui?On stasis tubes: 1. Would these work on inhabitants of Spherus Magna? 2. Since people in said tubes are said to be in "suspended animation", would that mean that their body moves inside said tube, albeit in a predictable regular pattern? 3. These tubes suspend all life processes including thought. What would such a suspension be caused by (i.e. what is the effect of the gas on the being involved that would cause life processes to slow/stop)?

So everyone knows that the Rahi of '01 only served Makuta because they were under the influence of infected masks. This makes sense, of course; Toa, Turaga, or Matoran could also be forced to serve Makuta if their masks became infected.Toa, Turaga, and Matoran, though, are a slightly different case - they all need to wear masks to function properly. The Rahi, as far as we know, do not. However, before the Rahi, Makuta's only servants were the Kraata, who for obvious reasons would be unable to affix masks to Rahi, and Ahkmou, who would of course be unable to do so due to the fact that there's only one of him and that he's a Matoran. The Rahi of Mata Nui, therefore, must have worn masks before they became infected by the Kraata.My question is, "Why?" Why would the Rahi have been wearing masks they had no need for? Where did they get them? Are the masks Great, Noble, Powerless, or some new type entirely? If so, can they be worn by Toa, Turaga, and Matoran? (Feel free to add any similar questions that I missed).Furthermore, the Kanohi Dragon is said to have Kanohi-like scales designed to lure in prey. Why would it be an uncommon occurrence to see a Rahi with Kanohi? And why would the Kanohi Dragon not have normal Kanohi like other Rahi?Thanks.

Proposal: The Rahi Blade Burrowers were modified by the Hidden Great Being in the Matoran Universe to create their unique tunnel pattern. Anyway, given the gathered information above, I will point out that Mutran did not design the burrowers to create their tunnel pattern (since it was a mystery to him), and that he specifically designed these specific Rahi to die after three days. The quote above specifically says that the Great Beings tampered with the burrowers (probably to extend their lifespan and to make them build the pattern). Now, where are the Great Beings during that time frame? They were present during the robot's creation, but I don't see them exactly running about 15,000 to 20,000 years after (BS01 says that the League was defeated "80,000 years ago"). Somebody modified those burrowers, and it would have to have been under Kalmah's nose, or between Mutran and Kalmah, seeing as either didn't know what the map was or why it was in the burrower's brains. Likely either party, or the beings they used to transport the burrowers, would have noticed if a Great Being showed up in all his glory (Hey, let me modify these!). And once the mystery was brought up, I imagine Kalmah the Warlord would have interrogated the beings involved in holding and/or shipping the Rahi, and it would have came out. But the Hidden GB would have brought little or no attention. He might have simply been involved in the transport operation to begin with and could bluff his way out. Also, this particular individual, with his penchant for observation, would likely have wanted to observe the League for information, which could have placed him in this position (important enough to observe, but not really be noticed). A person involved in transportation would know what is going to whom, and possibly have access to port gossip in Kalmah's fortress. But Kalmah and Mutran would likely view such an individual as just another minion, which would likely go unnoticed. So go ahead and point out all the holes the size of blade burrower's tunnels in my theory. -
I was thinking about the fact that Rahi wear Kanohi. If they can wear Kanohi masks, or can be taken control of through use of infected Kanohi, can Rahi be controlled by Krana?

Front Front Angle Side Back Angle Back Legs Body Detail Abdomen Closed Abdomen Opened Thorax Back Thorax Front Thorax Side Arm 1 Arm 2 Arm 3 Pose 1 Pose 2 Arms Spread Head Top Head Side Head Back Stand Bye! Sorry for so many pictures, but with a large, unorthodox MOC like this it's hard to get all the details into just a few. I'm really proud of this MOC, the complex angles in the thorax in particular. I'm glad TLG made Hordika chesplates, or else this MOC wouldn't exist. I think I used all of mine getting the shapes just right! Thanks for looking, be sure to comment and tell me what you think.

I built this way back when before the forums went offline for the Hero Factory Rahi contest. I couldn't enter it then because, well, the forums were offline. Anyone know how to enter it now? Anyway, the Core Dragon is a fearsome beast known for it’s glittering hero core-shaped scales used to lure unsuspecting heroes to their doom.Legend has it that the Witch Doctor used his terrible powers to create it out of viruses and liquid Quatros. It formerly plagued Makohero City, destroying many great structures. A group of heroes were dispatched to take care of him. They managed to trap him in an undersea cave under a hundred-foot-thick sheet of ice. The Witch Doctor later sent a few of his servants to release it. It continued wrecking havoc until Larry Lhikan and his Hero team subdued it and gave it to a group of scientists hoping to reproduce it mechanically. It escaped, however, and now resides on Quatros, eager to "deal with" any heroes it meets. Thanks for looking! C&C appriciated as always! And be sure to tell me how to get it in the contest if you know.
