Bionicle 2015 Toa Mods


Recommended Posts

Thanks to some Bricklink orders that arrived today I can now show off my mods for the 2015 Toa

One thing to mention with all of them except Onua. I built a custom torso since I didn't like the exposed ball joints on Tahu, Pohatu, Gali and Lewa. I didn't with Onua cause of his large chest piece. I won't show how its built until LDD updates. Till then feel free to guess how I built it. Also they all have silver armor save for Tahu and Kopaka's chest plates. I hope in later waves we get Silver Red or White printed chests for Tahu and Kopaka.

Tahu
I shortened his legs and change his feet from silver to red. Swapped out chest armor for Breakout version. I might change his eyes to orange once I get the summer sets.

Tahu: His extra height with the default build really did him justice, and shortening his legs make him look oddly stocky. The feet could have stood to be silver, but the rest of the silver armor would have looked better as gold.

 

Kopaka: Again, height and armor color should have stayed. I like the sword, maybe give it some more girth on the other side of his hand? As for his leg armor, move one or both of those pieces to the side. Makes his legs look kinda weird to have them both in front.

 

Onua: For the most part, this guy looks really good! My major gripe is that his upper arms aren't the kind that restrict movement to back and forth, like the actual set (actually, looking back, I noticed that Kopaka and Tahu are the same? Why?). Otherwise, a solid build.

 

Lewa: Overall, pretty nice, but again with the upper arms. It makes it look kinda odd..

 

Pohatu: I really, really like this one. Adds bulk, and overall not bypassing the word filter. Again, upper arms are weird, but that's my only real complaint here.

 

Gali: This is pretty nice. No real complaints, no real compliments. Looks good overall, but the upper-arm-syndrome has struck again.

 

Suva: I love this! Only issue, which I don't know if you can fix it, is that Lewa's spike pieces are the wrong shade of green. Other than that, it's great!

Don't bypass the word filter.
