Ok, we know they live for millenia, maybe even eons. However, they can't just live forever. They are part biological, after all. So I'm basically asking if there has been a set lifespan for the Matoran species. However, there would be little proof in the BIONICLE story of this, due to the fact that the main story took place over the course of a year (or two) if I remember correctly (which I probably don't). Even if it was more than a year, it would still not be enough time to give us a clear lifespan. So the info would probably come from a serial or GregF answers thingy. So this is my question: What is the average lifespan of a Matoran?

After the sacrifices of the Toa Kitai, a new team rose from the ashes- the Kanau, the prophesied Last Hope for their land.^ click the picture above to go to the overall team gallery, click the names below for more pictures in the individual galleries ^Cilira, the Cunning. Toa of Lightning. Quiet co-leader of the Kanau. Tactical and stealth specialist.Kerev, the Swift. Toa of Air. Headstrong like all Le-Toa, but quiet unlike most. Speed fighter ("rusher").Asgage, the Grim. Toa of Stone. Serious, uses element sparingly but effectively. Team leader.Madar, the Volatile. Toa of Iron. Loyal but unstable. Destructive elemental abilities.Ormont, the Tenacious. Toa of Earth. Was forced to use his Iden to permanently possess a robot body. Heavy unit.As it says up there, individual Brickshelf galleries linked above; team gallery can be found by clicking the giant rainbow.The MOCpage for the Toa Kanau can be found right here, assuming someone cares.Some relevant points to make~I was running out of parts by the time I got to Cilira, but I wanted a blue Toa, and a female team member. That's why the torso- and actually, the entire MOC to some extent- looks like it is made from leftover pieces. Magnetism might've been a more fitting element for Asgage, based on appearance and such, but eh, whatever. Please remember that Ormont doesn't look like a Toa because he isn't- it's his spirit in a robot body. The MOC itself was initially inspired by Brute Steltians (my name for Krekka's species), although the no-right-eye thing is a coincidence... honestly. As a story-related side note, Ormont has one eye because the sudden energy influx busted one of the robot's optical sockets. Kerev does have a mask- a Calix, probably- which is molded like a ninja's mask because, well, he felt like it.So anyway, feedback is appreciated, as usual.If you've got the time and are so inclined, feel free to take a look at the various works that I have so self-servingly linked to in my signature, located for your convenience directly below this (and every) post that I've made.

Well, if you're a purist, I suggest leaving now. If you're not, and you think painting parts is OK, then feel free to stick around. I present to you, the last version of my Self-MOC, Auron! (Hopefully, I have no real plans to update him). (Link to MOCpages here: http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/348723#comments) I'd also like you all to comment (yes, I already know that his really slim, so am I), if you have the time, because, if there's something I'm doing wrong with my building, I'd like to know, so I can become a better builder. (P.S. Yes, I know he's OP as Karzahni, he's a MacGuffin, and highly valuable to my story because of it!) (P.S.S. No bad words this time Windrider! I promise!)

Well bionicle lovers, I'm new to this, so please forgive me upfront if I'm not doing this in correct method.I made a post elsewhere regarding the fact I'd like to sell my old Bionicles and was directed here. Mostly to people who would appreciate them for what their worth. Most of my stuff is older. Here it is, and based on looking at a few selling forums, I think I have this laid out alright. But please, let me know if I need to correct anything. I'm looking to either sell the whole collection together or individual. Collection together would be about $250 to include for shipping, otherwise, I'll make individual prices down below.Few things though, you must live in the United States of America. (I will cover shipping that way.) And with living or shipping in America, this is all in USD for currency. Until I figure out how to color text and stuff, Green mean hold and Blue mean pending sales.(Plus two dollars for shipping to everything, Sorry I didn't add this from the start, again, new at this.)Here's the complete collection: Toa Nuva: Tahu Nuva, Lewa Nuva, Gali Nuva, Kopaka Nuva, Pohatu Nuva, Onua Nuva. ($8 each)I have this Tahnok-Va (Free with Toa Nuva Tahu)And a green disc throw-guy that came from McDonald's? (Free with Toa Nuva Lewa) Bohrok: Tahnok, Gaholok, Lehvak, Pahrak, Nuhvok, Kohrak. ($5 each, as I ripped off some of the container plastic that wasn't supposed to. You know how one side was peel-able off and the other was supposed to stay on?)Bohrok-Kal: Tahnok-Kal, Gaholok-Kal, Lehvak-Kal, Pahrak-Kal (missing one silver connecting piece), Nuhvok-Kal, Kohrak-Kal. ($7 each)Rahkshi: Guurahk, Kurahk, Lerahk, Panrahk, Turahk, Vorahk. ($7 each)Vahki: Bordakh ($6)And last but not least, I have this Takanuva with his bike. ($50)All of these have their containers as well the booklets with them (except Takanuva, he just has a booklet).I have a bunch of spare parts/masks here and there which based on shape of the mask will go accordingly for free with the different Bionicles. If you have any questions at all, don't hesitate to contact me.I'll throw in the movie too if anyone want's it. (The first movie that is.)Thank you!SirFrancisBacon2ndBy the way, all the Krana of my Borhok are right here.

This was a request from Toa Kaithas to draw his BZPRPG character, er, Kaithas The mask is a Great Huna. I took some inspiration from the movie version of the Metru Toa and also the piston arms and joints from my previous drawings. Still having trouble on how to design the legs though. The color I have originally for Kaithas was a blue-green, turns out the forest green that was requested wasn't blue-green but more yellow-green, Ouch. So I fixed that with the yellow marker. Color mixing on the paper! Medium: Copic Markers, White Gel Pen, Photoshop WIP Pictures: http://www.majhost.c...ithasbzprpg.png http://www.majhost.c...rt/kaithas2.png http://www.majhost.c...aithascolor.png http://www.majhost.c...aithasfinal.png Thanks for looking!

The current version of my Self-MOC. I uploaded the video yesterday. On that one site that you can't say the name of here and can't link and also has cats with poptart bodies and have rainbows coming out of them.I'm pleased with him, I like the skinny body, the 'back' that replaced the 'waist' and his lower body. And weapons. And Rapture.http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/343640This time I made sure all language doesn't exist windrider, I swear! =O

I want to know what other people think about the best Toa. Personally, between 2005 and 2008, I really liked Takanuva. He's actually a bit like Matoro. Starts out as an ordinary Matoran (even though he is the chronicler), becomes a Toa, risks his life to stop Makuta taking over, saves the universe. Except he doesn't die like Matoro did. Then you have to consider their weapons.Takanuva (2008 version): Giant 3 pronged staff, Midak Skyblaster, Mask of Light, power over light and shadowMatoro (Mahri version): Twin cutter, Cordak revolving blaster, Mask of Reanimation, power over ice, guards the Mask of Life.So if I had 2 choose a favorite, it would probably be Matoro and Takanuva. I love BOTH OF THEM so much I can't decide!!! I'll just bow before both of them. So, what do you guys think? Who is the BEST Toa from 2005-2008?

^ click to go to gallery ^Locnor is a young Onu-Toa, who specializes in controlling Ore in the ground. His weapon is the aptly-namedOre Fist, a large gauntlet powered up by Locnor's elemental powers. His armor is similarly augmented withembedded luminescent crystals. Locnor has a very unorthodox fighting style, due to his unique Toa Tool.MOCpage > >Brickshelf Gallery > >Feedback is appreciated.

This guy's been sitting around on my shelves for the better part of four and a half years now. Almostly completely scratch/original build, and probably the first MOC where I began to show some ingenuity in my building, so I'm very proud of him.Main posehttp://www.brickshel...ire/toafire.jpgFrom the leftsidehttp://www.brickshel...re/toafire2.jpgFrom the backhttp://www.brickshel...re/toafire3.jpgBack with cape liftedhttp://www.brickshel...re/toafire4.jpgFrom the sidehttp://www.brickshel...re/toafire5.jpgUpclose on torso from the fronthttp://www.brickshel...re/toafire6.jpg

Well, I suppose its that time again, time for another BZPRPG character. And here, I give you Benluke's (Or Javert's seeing as he changed his name) character, Tryna wearing Toa of Ice, Kethrye. (linkylinkyclickyclicky) One of my favorites so far, I tried to get a bit more movement into this piece. Over all, I'm quite glad how it came out, although, I don't quite remember how long I spent on it.- Sketched in pencil, inked, and then colored using Photoshop.

http://imgur.com/XJXZXhttp://imgur.com/lzGrJThis is Baronu, former Toa of Magnetism. In terms of construction, he's rather simple, having an Inika-like base for his torso and three of his limbs. His defining features, however, are quite unique and interesting (hopefully): his razor-edged Buzzsaw Staff and massive robotic gun arm.BackstoryBaronu was originally a Matoran of Magnetism working as a toolsmith in a village of Matoran near the eastern shore of the Northern Continent. He was transformed into a Toa around 50,000 years ago by a Toa Stone of unknown origin. The Order of Mata Nui soon discovered his existence and instructed him to stay and defend his village rather than go adventuring and risk the Brotherhood of Makuta learning about him and killing him like they did so many other Toa of Magnetism. After his transformation, Baronu happily abandoned his original profession, always having found it boring and not as important as his fellow Matoran believed it was.Life was more or less ordinary for him until about 25,000 years ago, when the village was attacked by a particularly aggressive swarm of Nui-Rama. Baronu managed to get rid of them, but not before losing his left arm and the systems that allowed him to control his element. The Matoran of the village were kind enough to take him on a boat to Xia, where they met up with a Vortixx engineer and granted him an immense quantity of metallic Protodermis in exchange for a robotic arm and short-range jetpack for Baronu. Afterwards, Baronu continued to protect the Matoran village from Rahi (as well as Exo-Toa/Rahkshi when Teridax took over) until the Great Spirit Robot was fatally damaged and the entire population of the village evacuated to Spherus Magna.BZPRPG ContinuityIn the universe of the BZPRPG, the Nui-Rama incident never occurred, meaning that Baronu still has two normal arms, no jetpack, and full control over Magnetism. 24,000 years later, his entire village was destroyed during an earthquake resulting from the Great Cataclysm, and Baronu was the only survivor. He later made his way to the island of Mata Nui along with many other Toa and members of other species as well. Once there, he settled down in Onu-Koro and began using his elemental powers to help the Onu-Matoran miners dig metallic ore out of the ground. He finds this job nearly as boring as his old one as a toolsmith, however, and would rather be taking the fight to Makuta than working monotonously in claustrophobic tunnels. He is smart enough to know that the former is essentially suicide, though, so he doesn't try.Personality/AbilitiesBaronu is rather arrogant and not much of a strategist, relying on his equipment and powers to carry him out of battles victorious or at least alive. Back when he had his elemental abilities, he was spoiled by them in a sense, as most of the foes he has faced have had plenty of metallic components for him to crush and tear apart. After losing his Magnetism powers, however, he has successfully adapted to having to rely on his weapons more than anything else. He has above-average intelligence in general, but doesn't really use it that often. He's not very ambitious either, which is part of the reason why he was content with staying in obscurity even after his transformation.Baronu's weapons include the Buzzsaw Staff, a long spear/staff-like tool that has a set of spinning Protosteel blades on the end. In MOC form, the blades can be spun by rotating a gear on the outside of the staff. The blade mechanism can be detached from the staff and thrown at foes with the help of Baronu's Kanohi Sanok. Back when he had his elemental powers, Baronu could magnetically yank the blades back over to him and reattach them to the staff after they hit a target. Now, however, he has to run over and physically pick them up, and his staff is about as useful as a large rock on the end of a stick until he does so.The robotic arm that Baronu possesses, however, more than makes up for the loss of his Magnetism abilities. Not only does it contain a Zamor launcher with spheres that can corrode armor, but it is also equipped with seeker missiles, a laser scope/cannon, a pair of dagger-like blades, and a single-barrel explosive Cordak dart launcher. The power of these various weapons is further enhanced by Baronu's Sanok, which ensures that they all very rarely miss their target.Full Image CollectionDownload: http://www.sendspace.com/file/0y816y(As you can see if you download this, the robotic arm is so heavy that it has to be supported with both a 90-degree Av-Matoran arm and a variant on the normal Inika arm design.)

An Idea of mine that I've had for over a month, I finally managed to put my idea onto paper. Taking the suggestions and ideas given to me from my last piece of artwork, I tried to compound them all into this one piece. And so, I give you Snelly's BZPRPG character, Skyra, who is, quite possibly, my favorite in the RPG. (After some of my own, of course.) :3 (clickyclickylinkclick) While I wasn't exactly sure what a laser-tipped Katana was supposed to look like, I did my best. I'm actually quite pleased with how it came out, beside the few little things that get me... Colored using Photoshop, around 3 hours.Sketching about 2 hours.

I'm not sure where this goes, since it refers to sets and the story, so i apologize for any confusion. As for the topic, we know that all toa are the same size, but the sets are not. What size do you imagine toa to be? Mata sized? Inika sized? Somewhere in between? I imagine them to be Toa metru sized.

Hey, BZPower! I'm back with another MOC from my epic (link). This time, we've got Kolvat, the Toa Hagah of Stone who works alongside Korahn and Geiad. The next couple chapters will reveal more about his past and personality, so be sure to check out When The Month Ends over the next week or so.Now, on to the pictures.(Click for gallery)FrontBackPoseCompared to KorahnPose 2Well, that's Kolvat. Also, be sure to check out Geiad. I'll have a topic for him up very shortly.

Ok. 4 months ago "Click" posted this MOC of a Matoran he built. I just so happened to have been working on a similar MOC of my own, only mine was at least 3 times taller! So I asked him if we could collaborate on a piece of work and include this character in it. So far little progress has been made in the ways of developing a storyline, but we imagined it would be related to the Multiverse instead of the Canon Universe. All we have agreed upon so far is that his power is "Rebuff". For those who don't know what it is, it allows the being to amplify the powers of other beings in his presence.So in the realization that I have very little time left with my Lego, I decided to finally post this MOC. Meet Toa Isirh, everyone!The rest of the pics are on my set on a famous image-hosting website...Here they are.Your thoughts are very much appreciated. Feel free to also post any story-related suggestions.

I was just thinking... As you probably know, light that we can see is just one small part of a large spectrum of electromagnetic radiation. My question is this: how much of that spectrum can Toa of Light, or any being with light powers, control? Just the visible part? Or ultraviolet and infrared, too? Microwaves and gamma radiation?

My Self-MOC. I said I was going to post it over the summer, but then I got lazy and didn't post him on BZP. Then I built V9. And Just recently V10.So yes, he's old, and his model looks much different (and shorter) than he used to be. This is also what the current BZPRPG Auron looks like.http://images.mocpag...07m_DISPLAY.jpgI find it ironic that the title on MOCpages says: "Final Auron", even though I have made two newer version! XDAnd yes, I know he's overpowered, aren't all Self-MOCs OP?Edit: While MOCpages is not a forbidden site, the page you linked to did contain at least one filtered word and was marked as PG. I've taken out the link to the page and have replaced it with a deeplink to an image of the MOC itself. Please do keep it this way, but feel free to add more deeplinks (i.e., links to images themselves) or embedded images if you wish.-Wind-

Okay, I haven't really posted anything for a while here, so I thought I'd quickly finish up an idea I've had for a while. As soon as I saw Tribal Art, I just really loved the style of it, and a while ago, I made the connection between the Mata Nui Island villagers and the Tribal Art, since they are at least partially derived from the same places that Tribal art originates from. So, I just make a quick version (as in the Pakari took me half an hour!) of what I think Tribal Mata Kanohi could look like. Maybe later, I'll make the Turaga's Kanohi, but for now, enjoy:I'd say my favorites are the Kakama and the Kaukau, and even though the Pakari took me forever, I still don't like it much.And, if you have any comments, I would love to hear them, and so I can work on my tribal skills. Obviously, this is my first time drawing that particular style, but I think it turned out good for a first. So, what do you think?Oh, and if anyone would like Avatar versions, I would be glad to throw those together. Just a thought.
