Alexander123 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 I was looking at images on Bs01 and found a image of an all white Makuta Vamprah which looks a lot like his appearance in the Melding Alternate Universe. All Makuta in the Melding wore white armor to help purge themselves of darkness. Does anyone else think this could be the canon depiction of the good version of Vamprah? (the image is under gallery: prototypes 2008) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TuragaNuva Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 (edited) Here's the image, so everyone doesn't have to look it up. I haven't actually seen this prototype before. It's an interesting thought, since the color scheme does seem like it could work, but I think that Melding Vamprah would've taken a less evil-looking form.

Pohaturon Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 This image was first publicized in the Battle for Power games on the Bionicle website in 2008. It's just your run of the mill pre-dye prototype, not a canonical Melding appearance. I mean, you can co-opt him as such, but it won't be official. 1 Quote Stone rocks Model Designer at The LEGO Group. Former contributor at New Elementary. My MOCs can be found on Flickr and Instagram.

Podu Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 ABS (the material that most LEGO parts are made of) is milky white in nature so that's why the prototype looks like that before any color was applied and it probly has no connection to the story. That's still an interesting thought though. What would the Makuta need Tridax pods for in the Meldong Universe? To drop presents on Naming Day? 1 Quote 99.9% of BIONICLE fans forgot about Podu. If you happen to be the 0.1% that still remember him, copy and paste this into your sig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

squidmaster Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 the model shown is just that- a prototype i think that it is pure coincidence that the colours for the white prototype mould reflect the colours from the melding universe. the prototype still looks evil. the makuta in the melding universe don't look that evil Quote S Q U I D M A S T E R check out my imgur gallery for bionicle photography: https://mahatparthiban.imgur.com/all/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheesy Mac n Cheese Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 While that isn’t a canon representation, Vamprah is a shapeshifter so there’s no reason he couldn’t choose to look like that.

Alexander123 Posted August 18, 2018 Author Share Posted August 18, 2018 I figure Melding Makuta would need Tridax pods, for if there is some form of civil unrest they would drop bombs that would cause the combatants to be passed out until order can be restored. Then he might have an evil looking appearance for intimidation to help dissuade anyone from breaking into the valley of the maze. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
