Archon~ Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 (edited) I homestly love all of them, and while I will go into detail on each of them later on, I would like to point out what I think about Naho.I think that the 3 shades of blue are awesome, and somehow I just see that being Naho, but I do feel that the silver and ccbs seems to be intriguing. I would replace the Tahnok Kal shield with Ghalok's shield, and use the blue fire sword that came with Berix or a Gali hook for the tip of the spear, use the light blue thigh/upper arm piece with a dark blue armor for the thigh, and give her light blue hips Edited November 11, 2014 by Archon~ Quote Archon *** "For one to truly feel alive, the person must kill oneself a little bit each and every day."

DoktorFreizeit Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 All in all, good job! The Metru build was one of my favorites to tinker with back in the day, and it's nice to see someone still using it I just have two points I'd like to hit on: 1. Giving Nidhiki Nuparu's Volitak. It's one of my biggest pet peeves. I've always felt that the Kualisi design should've been Nidhiki's mask, and the knowledge that it was intended to be the original Volitak only affirms this. If Norik's Pehkui was reworked to look like a Kiril, why couldn't Nidhiki's Volitak look like a Kualsi? Were I you, I'd go onto bricklink and order up Defilak's Kualsi. 2. Akamu and his Akaku. The Akaku was always the problem child of the Mata Kanohi with its bare-minimum chin coverage. I'd suggest either attaching Akamu's head like you did with Vaku, or changing his mask to something different. AVOID THE NOODLENECK, FRIEND. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AVOID THE NOODLENECK, FRIEND.About the Volitak, I'm just trying to keep them as accurate to the story as possible. I attached Akamu's head like that so make him look sleek and agile, to fit his personality and fighting style. Thanks for your feedback!

Chro Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Good work on Krodan, although it's too bad you couldn't stick with the Metru build for all of them. Quote save not only their lives but their spirits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnderscoreChronix Posted November 17, 2014 Author Share Posted November 17, 2014 (edited) Good work on Krodan, although it's too bad you couldn't stick with the Metru build for all of them.I did it on purpose. The Toa Mangai weren't always a team, they came from all over the Matoran universe, so it would make sense for some to have different builds. Or maybe I'm making excuses because LEGO didn't make a silver Metru torso ;_; Edited November 17, 2014 by Toa Chronix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makuta Miras Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 The shoulders are excellent, and the shield and the sword look good too. I'm not sure on the colour scheme though: the silver doesn't stand out against the white very well. Only one Toa to go now... Keep it up!

Chro Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 I like Kumu's color scheme. Maybe he could do without the Mata green, because it's so bright compared to all the other colors on the build, but it really doesn't look all that bad.Just a note: the Zatth is the Mask of Summoning, it doesn't allow you to control Rahi; the real name of the Mask of Rahi Control is unknown.

Boidoh Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 The Toa Mangai of the Green wears a Mask of Healing... It could always be a Mask of Healing the shape of a Zatth. And its Toa of the Green, not Toa of Plantlife. Looks good though. Thumbs up.

Thumbs up.Listen Boidoh, if you have your way with all the polls and whatnot, Chronix's entire project is going to become pretty inaccurate. Why not let him make his own version of what he thinks the Toa should be like?Also, I'm pretty sure Plantlife is a fine name for it. May not be technically accurate but it's colloquially accepted. 9 Quote save not only their lives but their spirits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The entire project isn't accepted canon anyway. Might as well let Chronix have his fun.Besides, Plantlife and "of the Green" technically mean the same thing. It's just a very minor difference. 1 Quote mindeth the cobwebs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'The Green' is just another term for it. http://bionicle.wikia.com/wiki/PlantlifeOh and I also don't feel like taking apart all my MOCs (Which came before all this other Mangai talk) and starting over just because some other fans decided whatever they say is canon.

Archon~ Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 I liked the Toa of Plantlife. I think a little more blue on him would have worked better to suit the natural armor better and make the distinction between Toa of Air, but nonetheless, I think it looks good! I'm a fan of the brown ornament you gave him, really inspires a foresty vibe. Quote Archon *** "For one to truly feel alive, the person must kill oneself a little bit each and every day."

This poll BZP users "made up" was suggested to be done by Greg, and has been accepted into official canon. See here: http://biosector01.com/wiki/index.php/Toa_MangaiLook in the members section. What do you see? Though that shouldn't matter. I think the MOCs look good, and you shouldn't take them apart. As Greg said, any fan-fic of any sort can be considered an Alternate Universe.

Toa Kohron Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Wow, I really like these. Of all the Toa, I really wish we had gotten either a few Mangai or the rest of the Hagah as official sets, so props to you for bringing them to life as such.I'm working on my own version of Nidhiki, myself, so I was glad to come across these for some inspiration!
