You and me both, buddy. I really thought my MOC had potential when I posted it, and up until I saw the polls I had my hopes up. But oh well All 3 of us did From the looks of it, my Mata Nui MOC has no chance of winning

Gah you took my idea and made it better! And my chances of wining go down another notch Seriously though, amazing.

Not sure how this is gen 2 style with no CCBS, but it's still amazing. I love how Tahu can fit in it!

This is amazing. This is going to be very hard to beat. Just one question though, why is there orange paint on the right shoulder pad?

Oh, I hadn't noticed it looked a little lopsided in the photos. I had just swapped out the axels for ones that would bear the weight better, I didn't realise I hadn't pushed the beam all the way back in. That's gonna cost me points Thank you. As for the strange torso shape, I explained earlier that it was done intentionally for a more bulky look.

This is insane (in the good way)! This is going to be VERY hard to beat! (also, as I said in the official topic, is this going to try to take over my Mata Nui entry? )

The Gukko is amazing, but I personally think that it could have been done with more armour. As for Jaller, I'm not very impressed. Yes, 2015 villagers are very generic, but I feel that Jaller could have been done better with some smart armour placement. Still a very nice job though!

In all honesty, I completely agree with all your nitpicking (aside from the head, I'm proud of that one). Had I given myself more time I could definitely could have made better feet and integrated a function into the chest (honestly I didn't think of a function, I just thought of putting the mask in there). I know the Ignika severely breaks up the color scheme, but it was either having a little yellow stick out or have the Great Spirit look like he was pregnant (I don't have the silver variant). Secondly, you are right, I am lacking in black joints, I had to use the red ones because that was all I had. Finally, remember the contest is a reimagining of G1 characters in CCBS, it's not supposed to be 100% accurate. (this one is directed at everyone, not you in particular. I think people are forgetting the main idea of the contest)

They were kinda hard to do, I just left them out because they didn't go well with the look I was going for.

The chest is that bulky for 2 reasons. 1, I wanted to make sure there was room for the Ignika. 2, CCBS builds in general tend to be kinda bulky (especially Onua, I took a lot of inspiration from him). As for the feet, I took a play from Rocka XL and Witch Doctor and made bulky feet. I agree they could have been better but I like them as they are I want to keep it close to the original GSR design, with the head being an actual head piece without a mask, so there would be no way I would consider adding a mask. (I couldn't add a Pakari if I wanted to, from the new sets I only have the protectors, and I don't think there's a way to get old masks on new heads )

So here it is, my entry to the latest contest! I present to you, the Great Spirit himself, MATA NUI! The gallery is linked below, but I ask that you view the pictures from the bottom up, due to the fact that I screwed up the upload What are your thoughts? http://imgur.com/a/PKGoP

Is your CCBS Teridax gonna try to take over my CCBS Mata Nui?

Here's my entry..... MATA NUI Now I screwed up in the upload so please view the album from the bottom up http://imgur.com/a/PKGoP

I must have tried calling 15 stores yesterday. Target won't get them because it "doesn't sell well." I can confirm that Mr. Toys Toyworld will get them though.

A trans Kaukau would be pretty awesome. It would be a pretty great nod back to '01.

So I've been looking for over a week to an answer this question, but I can't find it anywhere. In BZP's review of the new Tahu, there was a photo of 6 Haus, 3 of which are transparent. http://www.bzpower.com/galimage.php?galimage=/Imaging/stories/70787_Tahu_Master_of_Fire_Review_23.jpg Where did these red transparent masks come from? And how could I get one for myself ?

If you want to go all three virtues-y we'll just go off Matoran legend, rather then official cannon. I'm actually quite cool with this. Compared to mainstream religions it would be like this: 10 commandments = 3 virtues Jesus' sacrifice = Makuta casting Mata Mui into a deep sleep Heaven/ = Artakha/Karzahni You get it. I move that our official national religion be Matoran legend.

You missed the whole matoro's sacrifice. To us that's like Jesus being crucified. (Or at least it is like this to me and all other members of the High Order of Mata Nui, a cult I am a part of)

here are some simple rules that I think will work for our new society. 1 - We all worship and pledge allegiance to Greg Farshtey, The Great Spirit Mata Nui and the late Matoro 2 - We have two national sports: Kohlii as the major one and Akilini as the minor (because Akilin is pretty cool once you think about it) 3 - All statues of Toa will be dedicated to the respective set's designer and the mighty Greg 4 - The currency is gears. The more teeth on the gear the more it's worth (but the current is virtually worthless. The exchange rate would be something ridiculous like 1 USD buys 400 teeth, based on pick a brick prices) 5 - HF fans will be allowed, provoding they turn in all the Hero Core pieces from their figures (because CCBS is pretty good of you think about it) 6 - Greg Farshtey and anybody on BIONICLE's story/design team has diplomatic immunity 7 - Members of the defence force will be addressed as Toa 8 - Removing ones mask is like removing ones clothes in current society. It will be considered as nudity 9 - We will be assigned elements based on personality tests we take apron arrival on the island. For society to work we will ignore gender restrictions of ga matoran 10 - All breakers of the law will be put in jail, which will be known as the pit. I volunteer to write the new land's constitution. Someone earlier referred to it as Farshtey Nui. I like it, but it should be put to a vote. What have been the suggested names so far?

Here is my entry to this competition. It is called "Tika o te Koura" - Maori translation of "Worthy of the Gold" (happy to change it if this is deemed unacceptable by the judges, LEGO or the community as a whole, however there was nothing against this in the rules). I believe that my entry should be considered because of the "creative use of parts" rule. I have used original Mata bodies as legs, which (to the best of my knowledge) has never been done.
