Taipu1 Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 That, is a brilliant custom torso there. The whole thing is great, the legs make me almost want to get hero factory parts to try that out, very well built legs. This reminds me of the style of the artwork in the Bionicle Game. The hands seem a bit awkward, it's the nubs on the bottom of the fingers. In the main picture above, the right hand looks brilliant because you can't see them, and the left doesn't look so great, but there's not much you can do about that. Galleries not public yet, so it might not be as bad as I think there, but everything else about it is fabulous. - Taipu1.HighFly MatoranShowdownBZPRPG ProfilesHave you seen my Blog?

Zorrakh Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 I'd love to see the other pictures, but unfortunately the gallery isn't public yet. I'll be checking back to see them when it is. I really like the front of the torso, especially the Hero Factory armour pieces as well as the Technic pieces for the "abs." The proportions are great. The System pieces on the lower torso do seem a little strange, however, maybe because it doesn't look like it flows with the pieces above it. The Hero Factory armour pieces on the arms look good, especially with the Nuva shoulder pads. The minifigure fingers don't have that mechanical feel that is predominant in the rest of the MOC, and, unfortunately, seem to dectract from the MOC, but that's pretty much the only thing. I don't think they come in white, but the Exo Force robot arms would definitely look good on this. The legs look really good. I like the wheels in the the knees and the System pieces in the shins, as well as the Hero Factory armour pieces. I'm curious, though, can the knees bend? Also, can the torso rotate? I'd love to see the posability that's in the figure; it looks like there's a good amount in it. Also, if you still have it together, I think it would be awesome of you made a set of wings and a custom Midak Skyblaster with this. I think it would look really cool. Great job.

BBBBalta Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 This looks great all around, especially the legs and the torso. I like the overall sleekness of the design. However, the arms and shoulders could've used a bit more white, or the rest a bit more black. All in all, however, this is an amazing MOC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohannDakitsch Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 (edited) Awesome! Build is great, I'm loving the chest and legs.Those hands are also pretty sweet.

Ehlekdude Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 I absolutely love the legs! They are wonderfully built and incredibly detailed! The torso is also magnificent. The fingers look good on the right hand, but not on the left, where you can see the little studs or whatever they're called. Overall, about 9.7/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obsessionist Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 The shaping is brilliant! The legs are very solid-looking and reminiscent of muscle, as is the torso. Brilliant creation, I can't think of much to critisize. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~Darok~ Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Really cool MOC. I love the sleekness of the design, and yes it does look a lot like a Kopaka Nuva-Phantoka revamp sort of deal. One thing I'm missing from it is a toa tool, something to hold to or have. Besides that, it looks great. Loving the torso, ches, and leg work. Nice work! - Darok "You have to wonder at times what you're doing out there. Over the years, I've given myself a thousand reasons to keep running, but it always comes back to where it started.

Maganar Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 You know, I don't think I'd actually really liked any Bionicle MOCs that used clearly HF parts, like you have in the limbs. That has ALL changed now. This is highly impressive. The armor is compact with nothing in the way of gaps that I can find. The custom torso and multi-product line construction (Bionicle, HF, and a little bit of System) worked great. Oh, and one more thing... ...OMG... ...those fingers...THOSE FINGERS! :smeag:Minifigs arms?! That is simply awesome. Ok, I'm done. Review Topic I AM OFFICIALLY BACK!

Plague Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Awesome! legs are the best part. not so sure about the hands, I never really liked that style. http://www.mocpages.com/home.php/67904 < My Mocpages!

Freezer Burn Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 This thing is incredible to behold! The use of multiple hf cladding pieces on the legs is very creative, as is the entire construction of the legs. His torso is just ridiculous in its customness and flow. The hands seem to work well, and look great. The red eyes and laser contrasts nicely with the white, and the gunmetal is nicely distributed and makes him seem more armored for some reason. The gun is great, and the other two guys in the three-person shot on brickshelf also look incredible! Please, make more MoCs. Look at me still talking when there's science to do!

Zarohum Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Wow. This is incredible. the pieces fit together so perfectly, and the hands... they're just great. 9.8/10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daiker Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 First off, please don't embed giant images like that, it slows down people's computers, and it doesn't really give a good view of the model by seeing piece by piece while scrolling I'd like to start off saying that's a very solid build you got there The shaping is very nice, and the chest flows nicely. The use of HF parts and others makes very nice shaping imo. On the torso though, when the, I guess "abs" end, where the two open studs are, I would put on of these on it, to finish off the flowing shape. Not sure how you would let it continue on to the bottom though. I'd also just like to say, nice hand you got there Also, on the legs, I'm not really fond of those trans red light saber pieces peeking through the holes. The gun I see, is very nice. The use of the thornax launcher is great! Other than that, it's a very nice model, and KUTGW! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Akuna Toa of Sonics Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Well done Ids, another great MOC. The whole thing just flows great, and the coloring is very good; it doesn't have some colors sticking out. That torso is my favorite part, with the legs as a close second. Does anyone want to play the Master Chief Collection with me? I'm trying to get a team going for ranked. PM for GT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
