Onua Moc and revamp on the 2015 Onua
Ford replied to Gipsy Danger's topic in Bionicle-Based Creations
I'm going to be perfectly honest: this is the first MOC I have seen as a topic on BZPower that I do not like. Hear me out The whole thing just looks... crowded, as if everything is trying to get you're attention. This is also not really a revamp of the 2015 Onua. It just looks like Onua Nuva if he had to adapt his armor to accommodate an entire restaurant's worth of food. The bulk, however, I like. Food is always nice. That being said, if this were a revamp of the 2015 Onua, I would have used some purple and maybe a bit of gold. The mask is completely wrong as well, and makes the guy look like, as I stated before, Onua Nuva. I'd suggest using parts from the actual set wherever applicable. The arms are way too long, there are tons and tons of gaps in the waist, torso, and shoulders; and the legs... what are the legs? Tires? I guess that's pretty neat. After seeing a few of your creations, I can see that they all could use just a bit more. I can see you in the future coming up with great things with the skills you may have. Don't take this the wrong way; you could do great things, but you could do a lot better than this. -
Thank you. I tried to make it as close as possible to IRL me. Long legs included. I'm only 5' 8", and my legs are comparatively longer with my torso. I'm basically the reverse of Michael Phelps' body. I really need to get in on the RPG now. That is, if I knew how to RPG. Thanks for taking interest in the bow. It's the weapon that's been there since the first iteration of this MOC in 2012. I'm starting to think you don't like me very much... ...you're awesome, too!

Ahem. Would you like some inspiration for your upcoming MOC? Look no further than here.

PM a staff member directly to change the name of a topic. I bet I made Kagome pretty mad that day...

I do a power scream that makes you deaf. I got you.

Um... the paper boy? -
Now that you have seen the man, why not see the man and his tools, or rather his Toa Tools? An album of Fordian with his Toa Tools can be found here.

I would use it to get through morning traffic on the way to school. If Jerbraz was not invisible...

Let's Talk Bionicle: Best Moments of Bionicle (G1)
Ford replied to Takama Metru's topic in Bionicle Discussion
I almost forgot about the moment that brought me back to Bionicle for good. Back in August 2012, I played through MNOG for the first time. After the Le-Wahi Nui-Rama hive battle, the Le-Matoran have a dance party. Sure, the dance party looks fun, but the part that hit home with me took place on another platform in Le-Koro. Tamaru, sitting on the edge of one of the platforms, pretends that he is flying even though he is afraid of heights. That day, Tamaru became my favorite Matoran, and that moment made me think about characters in Bionicle in a whole new light. -

A very photoshopped mask. -
I would laugh anyway. If BZPower had actually bought Lego in 2013...

I sneak up on you, and create a sound that renders you unconscious. I got 'em.

Tower Prep was an interesting show that was on Cartoon Network for only one season. The interesting part was that it had a great plot and was not a cartoon. It got cancelled and Cartoon Network denied any future episodes when the name was brought up a few years later... ...it's maddening because it ended on a cliffhanger... Eureka was another good show that got cancelled on Syfy (in fact, the show was on when the channel name was still "Sci-Fi"). The show was cancelled just after the writers had completed the final season, so the show was pushed back by one season. The creators of the show, however, made a bargain with Syfy to make a final episode to tie everything together, giving the show a true ending. All in all it was a nice ending, but it felt rushed. I consider it to be the best show to ever be on Syfy that I have seen, with the second being Alphas. ...And then Alphas got cancelled...on a cliffhanger...

Let's Talk Bionicle: Best Moments of Bionicle (G1)
Ford replied to Takama Metru's topic in Bionicle Discussion
The Death of Matoro... I think the best moment of G1 had to be the battle between Mata Nui and Teridax at the end, even though people in the community at the time had mixed feelings about the ending of Bionicle as a whole. -
Yesterday, I decided to dust off my PS3 after about a year to play Castlevania: Lords of Shadow. It's okay, but... THE TITANS ARE SO CHEAP IT'S NOT EVEN FUNNY! I just got done trying to beat just the second titan, and I had to rage quit before I broke something. Overall, I think the game is done well and is pretty fun, but the titan battles are a blemish on this game.

I would ride it. If a Kraata was in you're living room...

I am a Toa of Sonics with minor vibration abilities. I punch you in the face and shatter your mask. You go down, unconscious. I got him.

In 2001, I started getting the Lego magazine. I thought the Bionicle sets looked cool, and the comics were interesting to read with my parents (as I was only four years old at the time and I was learning to read). My parents didn't get me any of the Toa or Rahi, but then I saw a promo for the Mctoran. About a week later I got a Happy Meal with Jala. I have been a fan ever since.

The Phantom of the Opera (2004) Watching this movie was the first time I had even seen the play it is based on. I didn't even know any of the music in it. I have to say, I wasn't all that impressed with the overall plot. The music was great and made up for the plot. The vocalists pretty much killed it.

I used some of these and a few of these. When combined with the friction sockets on the ends of one of the larger bone pieces you get something that has the same length as this. Just add on a shell and it looks the way it does (friction, however, can be a tiny issue when trying to pose the figure, but it keeps the whole thing stable)

I would have put blue on the legs if I could, specifically the thighs. Someone tell Lego to make trans blue 5M shells NOW! In all seriousness, the blue looks a lot better when light hits it in just the right spot. When it does, it just pops. It's so satisfying. I am sorry but somebody has to now. "Dance for us". With them long legs you should be able to bust out some funky moves. Like Renn said in the old Footloose movie. "Everyone can dance" It is just about expression... So Express... Also I really like this MOC and the shapes work really well together from the Silver Rode to the shoulder pads. The transition of CCBS has a nice flow and doesn't appear over complicated. Also that pose... what could he possibly be thinking leaning against your wall like that? Could he be playing it cool like something was not his fault? Maybe a hot female Toa is walking by and he is putting off a "I could care less" vibe as seen I old 80's movies. I really can't dance IRL. Just saying. The pose is just him taking a step back from the action while a "friend" deals with it.
