Cool set recoulors

Recommended Posts

I was browsing some dank bionicle memes, I came across a meme with Lehvak, that reminded me of the Bahrag queens, but one of them in green. I googled "bionicle bahrag recoulor" but I got nothing.

You got any recoulors?

I don't know about any full recoloring, it could just be a color filter they put them through. I know when they were very first advertised in the LEGO catalog Cahdok was depicted as having red eyes instead of both having green:

This happened a lot in Bionicle.

 

Pridak's eyes were depicted as red on his instruction manual, I remember seeing it happen to Ehlek as well somewhere.

The Visorak instructions also had a lot of misprints too.

I mean we've had a lot of pieces recolored for new sets throughout Bionicle, like the blue Whenua mask in the Kharzanhi set or the Metru colored Rhaakshi masks in the Rahaga or Dume's mask in Silver for Toa Norik.

 

But as far as recoloring an entire set, I think it would really cool to see a dark Toa Nuva Takanuva: as in the gold parts are gunmetal grey and the white parts are all black, or something to that extent.

 Hey, this is pretty awesome!

 

On topic, I wouldn't have minded seeing more Bohrok recolors. Purple Bohrok, Teal Bohrok, Transparent Bohrok, Golden Bohrok, Fohrok...

 

You can never have enough Bohrok.

A Fohrok is artificial Bohrok that were created by the Brotherhood of Makuta by the Nynrah Ghosts, but were destroyed by the Toa Hagah. They have the individual powers of the original Bohrok, but they are yellow and blue to distinguish them from the originals. And I don't think they use Krana. Fohrok actually isn't what they're called, it's just a smashed up version of "Fake-Bohrok" :P They can actually have been built by someone in the past, speaking of recolored sets. :D

A Mohrok I believe is something from World of Warcraft, but I could be wrong...

I think this is a mistake, did you mean created by the brotherhood of makuta for the nynrah ghosts or is it created for the brotherhood of makuta by the nynrah ghosts or did they both make them?

Let me correct myself: The Brotherhood ordered the Nynrah to make the Fohrok. :P

Wha--no, it's a pun. "Mohrok." "More 'rok."

I would call it a "Fauxrok".

why?

 

"Faux" basically means "fake", and it just sounds neater.

 

Dunno how to go back and add quotes to a post, so this'll have to do; but "Fohrok" is supposed to sound like "faux-rok." That's the pun.

i find it a little odd that so many rahi didn't really get set releases - even not part of the Master Builder set - but still was used in media like the card game, tales of the tohunga, mnog, etc.... and yet the sand tarakava never made any canonical appearance other than mentions, as far as i remember at least.

Going back to the topic on hand, as far as set recolors are concerned, we cannot forget about the beloved Sand Tarakava!

Wasn’t the sand Tarakava supposed to have a ruru not a komau?

 

 

You would be correct, the one pictured above is a replica a fan put together (I'm not sure if he was offering it for sale or not...) The official (non-released) version is pictured below :)
