    Opening the Piraka Brain Stalk to change the led battery is always a nightmare

    I started as a collector, a couple of years ago I decided to rebuild all my old bionicle sets. After that something resurfaced and I wanted to find all the sets I couldn't buy at the time. Only recently have I started building mocs, using both construction and system parts

    I can't decide, I have too many favorites. One of them is definitely Nocturn, but as I said, there are dozens and dozens of other sets that I really like.

    Anomalocaris Spectrum Built for the first round of Biocup 2023, the theme was Biomes, my subtheme was Saltwater. For the occasion I built an Anomalocaris, one of the very first predators on our planet. I decided to reimagine it as if it had never gone extinct and had become an abyssal giant, for this reason I used white and trans light blue pieces. I also added a couple of creatures such as the giant jellyfish on the left, some squid barraki on the bottom and used Malum's mask in reverse to create a kind of giant crab. 16/06/23

    Harbinger of War Built for the preliminary round of Biocup 2023, theme was Villains. This moc is based on the mechanical horse seen in the animated short "Second Renaissance - Part 2" from the film Animatrix. For the horse's body I used Galidor's torso from the Ooni set. 29/05/23

    Lasca & Rotte During an order on Bricklink, I noticed that the store I was ordering from had 2 air pumps from the Life on Mars line. I thought it would be a good idea to purchase both. Once they arrived, as usual, I wanted to find a new use for these strange and large pieces. Because this piece is air-bound, I decided to create a pair of villagers, masters of glassblowing. The only Bionicle pieces are the Nuva legs, for the arms I used a flex tube + a sequence of dark gray plates + dark gray 2x2 round plates. 21/05/23

    Amp This moc was created as a "challenge," my fellow bruhionicles was building a magnetic guy with only Bionicle parts, I thought it might be an interesting idea to do the same using (almost) only system parts to represent the two opposites of a real magnet. I envisioned Amp as a little troublemaker who likes to steal batteries from other electrical devices, so I also built a table clock using a technic manometer (9641). For Amp's body, I used two curved Znap pieces and a Nynrah Ghost Blaster air pump. 14/05/23

    Zenyatta (Ifrit) Made for the Overwatch Collab, Zenyatta is definitely one of my favorite characters in the game. I decided to build him with the Ifrit skin because... well, it's the skin I've actually been using in the game since I found it years and years ago. For the turban, I used 4 dark blue Minifigure capes (Batman's version) and for the plume the plastic piece used as the tongue of the Fire Fang in Ninjago set 70674. The piece of cloth in the lower section of the body is a dark blue Minifigure parachute folded to form a "rectangular" shape, while the two roads on the sides are simply vertically cut flextubes. 07/05/23

    Mesonythid Built for a collab about Elemental Lords, Mesonythid is supposed to be the Elemental Lord of Psionics. For this build I take inspiration from a Mind Flayer, for the legs I used the short neck of the old dinosaurs, the vest is made with the new Avatar wing pieces. 30/04/23

    Pr0duct N.1 At the end of 2021, during the closure of the Vidiyo theme, there was a very interesting promotion in my country: all Beatbox sets were sold for €1 each. Of course, I didn't miss out on this incredible opportunity and bought a large amount of Vidiyo sets. With all these pieces I wanted to build something and this was one the final results. They're basically a pair of monitors with big legs and tiny arms, they're hunting these tiny humanoid droids with plates for heads. 18/03/23

    Ducklette Adams After a long time since I first used this way of building, I wanted to go back to the first method I used to find an idea: being inspired by the shape of an odd piece. So I opened my Galidor box and started looking at some pieces. After looking at Galidor Connector Block 6 x 6 x 3, with 3 Sockets and 1 Light Gray Pin (gal03), I found the inspiration. The rounded line on this connector piece reminded me of a duck's beak, starting from this idea I decided to build a space ranger duck. For the feet I find elephant ears to be the perfect match to recreate duck feet. I also built a bunny companion for Ducklette. 02/03/23

    Shoot-'em-up - Rythm Heaven (DS) Rythm Heaven (DS) is a video game that I love very much, that's why I decided to make a small tribute to this game. In Shoot-'em-up, the goal to complete the mini-game is to tap the touchscreen following the rythm of the song in order to shoot at some "dangerous" aliens. To do so, you're the pilot of the Blastronaut, this white spaceship with a bright green cockpit. When you hit an alien it will explode into a ball of fire, this is what is happening to the alien on the left of the screen. 11/01/23

    Mortal Kombat Trilogy - Ultimate In 2019, as my very first "modern" lego creation, I created in a Minifigure format all the characters from the first chapters of Mortal Kombat (from the first one to the Mortal Kombat Trilogy). In 2022 I decided to built a proper stand for all those Minifigures. The only construction build in this moc is the dragon on the back, its entirely composed of technic panels. 09/11/22

    Attack of the Beholder! Built for the LEGO Ideas D&D Contest, at first I wasn't sure what I could build for this contest. The very first idea was to build a Mind Flayer but I changed idea pretty quick. It's almost completely built with only system parts, the few exceptions are the dino tails used for the tentacles. The central eye is built using just a pair of dishes, the others 10 eyes are simply Mixel balljoints. 26/10/22

    Lunaris For this moc I wanted to recreate one of my all-time favorite Gormiti figures. Gormiti is a toy line of small soft plastic monster figurines created in Italy in the mid-2000s and still produced today. Lunaris is from the third series (2007/2008), he's basically a big bat with legs and a meteor for a head. Although it does not look like it, the internal structure of Lunaris is completely composed of construction/technic parts. The actual figurine. 16/10/22

    Thanks! This is really interesting, unfortunately I'm not really an expert in this kind of thing. Could this be a prototype mask? I know that LEGO prototype pieces are usually created in red

    Do you remember who posted that picture on Facebook or what group the mask was posted in? If you have a picture of that mask can you share it here? Thank you

    Carimata This moc was built as a "sponsorship," WeBrick contacted me and decided to send me some parts from their catalog, once I received the parts I had to build a moc using their pieces. The inspiration for Carimata came when I tried to combine the pink technic panels, the empty space between two panels reminded me somehow of a headdress, from there I created a face with tentacles/appendages, and Carimata was born that way. For the sandal straps, I used a pair of elastic bands from the Visorak sets. 11/10/22

    Paimon This is a moc I created on commission. The request was to choose a character designed by an artist and build it with LEGO bricks. I chose this character called "Paimon", I liked the rounded head, after seeing it I immediately thought of the half-sphere piece used in Toa Ignika's glide. The original drawing was in black and white, for the colors I was completely free to choose what I wanted. The original drawing, I've tried to be as accurate as possible when I built it with LEGO pieces. 04/10/22

    It is also the "fault" of how LEGO and its secondary market have become more and more globally known in recent times. In recent years, scalping in any other theme has increased a lot, unfortunately this has also happened for Bionicle. I personally know some individuals who have only recently started buying many Bionicle-related items/sets almost for free with the sole purpose of reselling them at 10/20/30 times the value they originally paid for them. They don't even use them, they just look for the sets for a financial interest. It's a very, very sad situation.

    Once Upon a Time... Bonkles Built for the "What if..." Bionicle contest hosted by Ron Folker. For the occasion I decided to use an idea I had in mind for a very long time, I wanted to build an Antibody unit from the cartoon "Once Upon a Time... Life," what a perfect opportunity to use this concept. For the "What if..." factor, I chose to recreate a literal interpretation of how the whole Bionicle concept was created: little heroes fighting evil inside the organism of an actual human being. So the Toa Mata are the members of the antibody unit and Makuta is the vermiform virus, just like in the cartoon. 07/09/22

    The situation can only get worse over time. At some point a "stable" point will be reached and prices will stop rising, or at least stop rising so fast. But when the new standard is reached and people start buying again, the cycle will start again and again and again...
