Of Travelers, Online Games, And Rucksacks


Cap'n Ikki

Don't you just love the MNOG? Not just playing it -- there are so many clues to decipher, so many gorgeous little details, and a LOT of stuff to recreate, MOC-wise. Of course, building Matoran from this game is always a fun thing, but it's a problem if they don't look quite right. Tamaru just looks best with lime green legs, Makuta is at his greatest with complete body infection (*nudge nudge*), and then there's Takua. I won't bother listing all the versions of Takua we've seen throughout the years -- but no matter how you build him, he'll still need something to look perfect. Guessed what I'm getting at yet?

 

Of course you did! The rucksack!

Now, my version maybe not be a 100% accurate to the MNOG version, contrary to my ramblings before. But what it lacks in authenticity, it makes up for with versatility! Now, ye behold --

 

Parts needed to build this awesome li'l critter

 

Step one

Step Two

Step Three

Step f-- oh, wait, it's already done and ready for use!

 

Ya want one?

Rucksack parteh!

 

And all that just because the word 'rucksack' sounds so much better than its cousin 'backpack'

This is absolutely awesome! About freakin' time, too! =P

 

No really, I've always wanted to have backpacks for my McToran... Thanks a fantasillion, Ikk!

 

(Finally that extra Nui-Jaga set o' mine will be of use... :pirate: )

Yay nostalgia! Unfortunately, Brickshelf seems to have crashed so I can't view it. I'll give it a look when/if the site comes back up.

Edit: Oh hey, it's back up. Very nice rucksack, I'll have to build some.

Wow, this is quite something. While the "rucksack" is a bit larger than the MNOLG pack was, it still is a creative use of a RoboRider head/Nui-Jaga dagger. The whole deal is very compact, almost "cute," if I may say so. While I prefer the term "knapsack" as a synonym for "backpack," "rucksack" has generally the same connotations, and fits the accessory well. Thanks for the instructions. *saves to online favorites*

wow like your rucksacks. Nice design, I'll try to make a version with a gap between the body and sack. Nice though.
