CommanderKumo Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 The title says it all, I really like Axonn and Brutaka, but I like Botar too, is it worth buying extra just to make him? or should I just disassemble Axonn and Brutaka for a while? what do you think?

The 1st Shadow Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Entirely up to you. If you feel it's worth it to have all three models in your collection, then go for it. I liked the Botar model, and if I had the space/money, I'd gladly add him to my lineup. If you feel a need to build all of the (depicted) Order of Mata Nui members, then I'd say Botar's a nice addition to that. 1 Quote ~Your friendly, neighborhood Shadow ~Credit for Avatar and Banner goes to NickonAquaMagna~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Great Spirit DM Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Ask your wallet. If I were rich enough, I'd have a ton of copies of each Bohrok, for example, so that I could have a big swarm. I'm not rich, so I don't. Basically no one here is going to have a good answer here unless you give us details on your private financial life (and I would advise not disclosing such information.) 1 Quote Conflux: BIONICLE Tabletop Combat System Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMSOG Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Assuming infinite funds: yup. Not assuming infinite funds: you're better off filling in gaps elsewhere in your collection before you buy doubles. Quote Hi. If you remember me from when I was most active on BZP, from 2009-2011... I know I was cringy. But please keep in mind I was literally 12.

Aanchir Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 I'd say just dissemble Axonn and Brutaka to build Botar, and then once you've built him you can decide for yourself whether you like him enough to get a second Axonn and Brutaka so you can keep Botar together. Personally I'm not a big fan of Botar. Kardas, on the other hand, was pretty impressive for its time. 3 Quote Latest MOC: PAIGE (Prototype Artificial Intelligence, Gynoid Expression) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hexadecimal Mantis Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 I bought duplicates of Axonn and Brutaka to make Botar actually. Though I bought them for retail price back when they were in stores. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToaTImeLord Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Bricklink parts you need for the combo model.Use your spare parts to get you started then slowly bricklink what you need.

Toa Imrukii Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 I never owned Brutaka, so I do not know what you are to expect in that regard. But I do own Axonn, and from the looks of it an equal amount of their pieces are used to make Botar. If you feel it best you should get two of each set. My biggest concern is what you could do with the extra pieces.

Bfahome Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Bricklink parts you need for the combo model.Use your spare parts to get you started then slowly bricklink what you need.Buying all the separate pieces in the sets would probably be more expensive than just buying the sets as a whole. Especially if you buy from multiple people, because then you'd have to pay a separate shipping cost for each order. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommanderKumo Posted May 9, 2017 Author Share Posted May 9, 2017 The three characters would appear in a Stop-motion film, judging by my budget and what everyone has said, I will likely rework the film so that the 3 never appear on camera together.
