Kaihanga777 Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 (edited) Well, at long last, I have complete my first of my Minifig scale Bionicle 3D printables... Ladies and Gents, I present Tahu Mata, Toa of Fire, now in Minifig form! Torso, head, and mask:https://www.shapeways.com/product/EB5YXJPG7/mata-test-body?li=shop-results&optionId=57755364Legs and arms:https://www.shapeways.com/product/Q388HA7JW/mata-legs-and-arms-2?li=more-from-shop&optionId=57768436 (Note: These are currently hidden by the way they are to be printed, but I don't know how to upload a picture directly to BZP. Help?) I will soon add his sword as well, so if you are interested in ordering please wait a day or two. Thank you!

Torran Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 I like the stylish shape you've given Tahu in his mask and body, but I can't say I understand the arms/legs photo, it looks like a weird matrix of mesh to me. Am I just unable to understand the angle, or is there an issue with the photo? Quote flickr - Brickshelf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Petewa Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 You might want to put [/img] at the end of the link, and before the link. Example: Quote Mataru Nui, an Interactive Adventure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disciple Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 I've been hoping that the BIONICLE sets might head this direction at some point in the future, so thanks for giving us a taste of what "Bio-figs" might look like. I like the way you've got the mask attaching to the head via that small pin hole. It really keeps the "mask feel," as opposed to if you had simply used a helmet-type piece instead. It's cool that you also went the extra mile in designing a fully custom body and limbs. I usually imagine minifig-scale Toa just re-using the "Hero-fig" bodies, but I like what you've designed here. Any chance we will be seeing the other Toa in minifig scale? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaihanga777 Posted September 3, 2015 Author Share Posted September 3, 2015 That's the plan! I also hope to make some Rahi in this style as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
