Voxumo

granted you say it in a nice way and i don't heed your warningI wish that that megablocks did not exist

granted you are sent to a science lab to see how they could replicate your abilityI wish i could create gold in my hand

granted but you and the aliens are transported to a pocket universe where the aliens rule.I wish for pluto to go back to a planet and not a dwarf planet

Granted You remember what you were going to wish for in your final moments of lifeI wish that i had a water cooler full of never ending Dr.Pepper

granted other people avoid you because you emit a field of warmthI wish for mosquitoes to become extinct

You don't smash the car but godzilla doesI wish alaska was warm

I was actually lookinjg around biosector when i found another possible GB canditate: Minion the dark hunter. My reason behind this possibility is that minion first off has never spoken so and by that extent never revealed what he knows. He is also always with TSO because TSO wants him near hime if he ever decides to talk. So if he is always near the shadowed one he cannot really cause much chaos similar to darkness who TSO never sends on a mission. He also appeared in the Toa Nuva Blog so he has made a storyline appearance. That is my other possibilityMy current possibility list1. Darkness2. Minion3. Jerbraz

Wow. This is what movie Teridax should have looked like set wise. Not that wierd combiner with Nidikhi, Krekka, and Nivawk+Dume

lol, thanks . Am I the only one who actually thinks that set is slightly cool?

Dude, that IS a menacing Makuta! I love how you positioned the wings over his shoulders, and how you constructed his face/mask. His colors are nice, and the red evenly spread throughout the whole figure is nice. It looks very menacing, indeed!The only critisism I have is that the vertical axels behind his "ankles" look just a bit out of place, but I wouldn't know how to make it better.

thanks, I actually started this MOC with the head. It was going to just be a random Makuta but I recognized the resemblance and decided to do Teridax And again, next time I get a chance I'll change the legs :)Again, thanks everyone!

i will admit that i think it is a perfect idea to do the head/mask first since the mask/head is usually more detailed than the set. and from there you can do the body. also the mask usually does not comprise of any actual pieces where as the body usually has more actual set pieces that you can buy than the head.

Back in 2000 (or maybe 2001), I went into McDonald's for a quick snack. I got Mctoran Jaller in my Happy Meal, and my interest only went up from there I saw the Toa Mata as early as '99, in a Lego set flyer, but of course I didn't - couldn't - get any sets then.

How is it possible that you saw the Mata in '99 when they came out two years later?

that is very good question. Because there is no way possible not even if you live in a country that gets things earlier than america such as japan. And i hardly doubt lego would put it out two years earlier, I could see a few months before like what they have done with a few bionicle sets where some of the sets will come out in December of the year before.

Well I pick power scream for this, I always did like screaming at the top of my lungs.Or chain lightning kind of like sith lightning .

now that you mention it chain lightning does sound like something out of star wars. imagine teridax talking to takanuva:Teridax "Takanuva i am your ruler"Takanuva" No it's impossible your evil!!"Teridax " fine don't accept it. now have a taste of lighting."I could see this happening.

I must also say that the movie was horrible.

I would agree with you except...It was actually okay if you didn't read any of the books.I need to get Inheritance!!

That's true with any movie based on a book. It's sort of like saying homework is the most fun thing you can do, despite never trying anything else.@ckmc, I refuse to skip books because I hate not knowing what's going on.

I agree that the movie is ok if you have not read the book. and i also hate skipping books.

Thanks guys, I definitely didn't expect such good feedback... I was under the impression that it was one of my less good MOCs. I updated the first post, I'm surprised no one mentioned the green wings. They looked perfect, but were the wrong color. Because of this I decided to change their color in Gimp.

Very cool. Some nice techniques in there. The face looks more like the movie than the actual set's one (but yeah, the set krahkaan is great). Could use a bit of work on the legs mainly... The connections are pretty 'small' and look fragile (I know they're not), and the lowest one is pretty strange, with that sockets+axle thing and the big gap... But overall, very nice.

Thanks. I've been looking at those legs, and I'd agree that I should definitely try and fix the joints up. They are quite awkward from a side view.

dang that is a really good movie representation of makuta teridax even the mask is almost spot on. I also really liker the pose you did with him holding iruini by the neck. classic evil pose. it would also be neat if you did one where he has a toa floating in the air hands grasping at neck, or the vader pose. teridax could technically do this with his gravity power.

I'll agree, that would look cool However I think I'd have to get a bit better at photo editing before being able to do that, lol. sorry, I can't respond to everyone individually. But know that your comments are still appreciated!

Well i was thinking without any editing. you could have iruini hanging by a string so that it gives the appearance of him floating and have teridax's hand out stretched towards the "floating" iruini. that way theres no editing whatsoever.

I was thinking about Darkness as well. He is physically powerful, which is something I'd go for if I were trapping myself in a massive, potentially hostile experimental environment. He is able to defeat the Shadowed One yet he doesn't, even though that's more or less the only mission TSO has given him. He spends his entire time observing and doesn't seem to care about much that's going on. And here's the kicker:

However, even when he does not travel with the Shadowed One, he still manages to watch him.

So he has a mysterious ability to watch TSO at all times. Who says he can't employ that to watch the entire MU?Also, Parugi, there's a reason codenames are called codenames: they're names as well. I think this criterion should be understood in the sense that it can't be that Skakdi with a mace from Destiny War, or a random Nynrah Ghost etc.

that is like the exact reason i think darkness could be the great being in disguise. he always sees what is going on.

Yeah i have experienced the same thing but with a black light bulb i really like when red transparent pieces light up. Also that type of light works really well to get glow in the dark pieces to glow goo.It's amazing what bionicle is capable of

dang that is a really good movie representation of makuta teridax even the mask is almost spot on. I also really liker the pose you did with him holding iruini by the neck. classic evil pose. it would also be neat if you did one where he has a toa floating in the air hands grasping at neck, or the vader pose. teridax could technically do this with his gravity power.

wow that is a really detailed 3d image i think it would have been awesome to see the in the third bionicle movie

Who enjoys saying "Rahkshi?" http://www.bzpower.com/board/public/style_emoticons/default/cool.png

i do

All right, here's another MOC review you requested. ^^Well, first off I'd like to start with the design. It's decent, and the Phantoka Makuta torso isn't something you regularly use, but you used it quite well. The Rahkshi feet were a little big, but the one on the torso was neat touch. The Takadox heads were cool, but the one complaint I have is that the colors don't really meld well together. The white is good, but the other colors don't go together. You probably need a darker blue so it kind of goes with the mask - just saying, which was probably the only complaint I had with the MOC.Now, the mask. You created a very unique design for the Mask of Psychometry, and I think that's a good representation of the mask. You did fit the 'ancient' look of Helryx, I must admit, which made her realistic as she is described in the storyline. Kudos for succeeding on that level. ^_^I loved the weaponry you equipped her with. The spear and the shield that you gave her were both interesting weapons, and very well crafted and very creative.All in all, this is a creative and interesting MOC, and a good interpretation of Helryx. Keep it up, great job!

it actually a mace. but thanks any way.

Here's the last MOC review!First, the color scheme is decent. The Metru brown color you paired with the silver was a good combo. I also like the color of the Kakama you put on the Makuta, the silver mask? I'm guessing you either painted it yourself or it was part of a mask pack or something, but it's still pretty cool.I liked how you added the Avtoran jet packs on his back arms (not sure exactly, but they look like back arms. Sorry if I got it wrong, lol). They're a neat touch, and I also liked the setting you had the set in, as well as the small bio you provided. And, although the picture quality isn't super, it hardly ruins the MOC.I also enjoyed the way the legs were designed. It would be interesting to have legs to the side also to make it six-legged, kind of spider-like. It's still cool as it is, but I think it would also cool like that, too. I liked the axe weapon, with the Rhotuka spinner on the side as well - neat touch. ^^In all, this is a pretty good MOC. I didn't spot many flaws, so I have to say that this is pretty cool. KUTGW - great job!

yes it is a silver kakama from a mask pack. those "arms" are actually more so tentacles or tails however you want to look at it. Also do you like the reference to the book? I had wanted to do a moc with that qualifications for a while. and i'm more than open to a name suggestion.

Yeah i have read all three books and am just waiting to buy the fourth book. I must say that i have enjoyed reading them especially since i finished the first three books in about a year and it really annoyed me how long it took him to come out with the last one. So yeah can't wait to read it. i must also say that the movie was horrible.

Here's another review!First off, the color scheme. It's a simplistic black and white combination, and that is always the simplest combo. Simple, however, is always the best choice. With that being said, the design is also simple. I liked the mixture of colors, like one part of the arm being white and the lower half being black, instead of everything being a mirror image. Adding little difference into the mixture was a creative touch.I also noticed the wings you had with the MOC. It's a cool addition, especially the piece that you used to create the wings. I would have never have used those pieces in fear that it might not have looked right, but you took somewhat of a dare. I also liked the cape you had with it, which to me gives it an air of authority. ^^Nonetheless, although this isn't a long review, I thoroughly enjoyed viewing the MOC. Keep up the good work!

those are actually not wings but that is his shield on his back for storage, sorry about the confusion. although now that you mention it those would be good for a type of glider wings if he were pushed off a cliff or something he could use them to glide to safety and maybe combined with the levitation disk foot add ons could resemble flight if he was in a horizontal position allowing him to direct his glide. the cape is actually a piece of black garbage bag that i cut "Holes" in and made the bottom jagged.Also what did you think of the mask o thought the silver parts around it would give it a slight appearance of a different mask, similar to how trinuma has those pieces behind his mask.

That's kinda cool, because they're custom painted pieces. It makes it a little bit more special. And the background is cool, by the way. ^^The original design is pretty neat, but I have to admit, the final result is still awesome. Good pictures - and three years? Wow, that's pretty impressive. And yeah, the weapons are interesting. I do like the wings, too - I feel bad for not mentioning them and the weapons at first, but I was busy with something else so I forgot to add them in. =PI like the original, too, though, and the choice of mask. And I think the only thing I've made that I've put a lot of sets into was the Kardas Dragon, either that or a gold Thok, which only consisted of three to four sets, lol.

Well i'm glad you like it. the background from the original pics is actually just printer paper taped onto a cardboard box. I there anything you think i should change?oh you must mean the background story. it took me about a year to decide what the background would be like. and i wanted to make him special since he is my self-moc and the first one i made. I really am glad you like it.

Here's one of the reviews you requested! ^^First off, I'll say that large MOCs are usually difficult to build. You succeeded in making everything flow together well, all the elements incorporated into it not just thrown together. It looks like you spent a great deal of time and put a lot of care into it to create this result.I really liked the design and color. The simplistic black and silver colors aren't flashy, but also makes it interesting and mysterious. A four-legged design is usually tricky to do, but you passed with flying colors. The spider-like back legs you had were creative, especially the choice of pieces.And I'm curious: Where'd you get the grey Maxilos mask? Just out of curiosity. Also, I see black Zamor spheres, or something like that in the Zamor launcher.Still, I hope this review was satisfactory. Anyway, this is an awesome MOC. Great job, and keep up the good work!

actually it's a white maxilos mask and i spray painted it along with the zamor spheres which after the black zamor sphere there is a white zamor sphere., in fact everything on him has been spray painted.What do you think of the background?Also it took me about 3 years to build it he was originally made for the makuta contest in 2008.I actually have pictures of his first designs when he was called matruI'll tell you right now that over 6 sets went into him. And i based the legs from fenrahks legs. also what do you think of the weapon and wings?

Well here is my Main Self-Moc with my secondary being Toa Voxumo Toa of Ice.here is the gallery for him on mocpages http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/241821and here is all the information on himVoxumoBiographyVoxumo was the first living creation of the great beings. Due to their success voxumo was given a large portion of the ocean part of spherus magna. They also gave him the task of creating an island that if needed could hold the whole population of spherus magna the matoran universe and the native wild life. So voxumo started the process of creating matru a island 20 mio wide ( 17,000 miles) and 23 mio long (19,550 miles) along with the odes islands with each averaging about 5 mio wide ( 4,250 miles) and 7 mio long ( 5,950 miles). The great beings also gave him six beginning powers water, plant life, stone, earth, fire and ice. With these powers he spent 30,000 years completing the island adding flora, underground tunnels, volcanoes, rivers, lakes, mountains, deserts, canyons. After he completed the island the great beings contacted him giving him another task they knew the core war was going to possibly destroy spherus magna so at that time they created mata-nui and told matru that if spherus magna made it that mata-nui would one day return to spherus magna he was to take mata-nui’s soul and take it out of the robot and create him a new biomechanical body and artakha would come to voxumo and the two would work on upgrading the matoran universe to run on automatic so it could sustain the ability to monitor gravity and other life essentials and put wards into it that would prevent any being from gaining control of the robot. Well in voxumo’s reality all the event’s that took place in the main reality took place even the crashing of mata-nui into the ocean of spherus magna except towards the end the toa nuva did awaken mata-nui but instead of teridax taking control of the robot mata-nui was able to gain control but before mata-nui regained control teridax teleported all the makuta from karda-nui. The order also never declared war or revealed their existence and those that had learned of the order that were not members such as takanuva, the toa mahri etc had their mind wiped of ever knowing about the order although they remember receiving help but not from whom. Once mata-nui took control artakha contacted mata-nui telling him of the great being wish mata-nui never rose from underneath of the ocean. Instead he teleported artakha and voxumo to the chamber underneath the coliseum to discuss how they were going to begin the process of running automatic. After discussing for a week they found a way and started the process. Now mata-nui is in the ignika and in glatorian form. The second task was to merge the agori society and the matoran society which was really simple task although once they merged an event took place that still makes no sense all the beings that had died in the matoran universe came back in front of the gathered society in perfect condition as if they never died. Although even the brotherhood was accepted into the society but were given the odes islands. After the societies were merged the society started building the cities on matru each city was the size of the whole of metru-nui it took 10,000 years for the matoran and agori societies to merge perfectly and the cities to be finished. During this time voxumo and artakha created a system of teleportation centers that allowed easy travel from the matoran universe, matru and the villages of spherus magna. During the time voxumo spent waiting for mata-nui to come he created nili his only living creation. Voxumo also brought rahi from the matoran universe onto matru and rahi from spherus magna to matru where the two type of wildlife could learn to coexist. Now at 140,000 years into his existence voxumo has successfully brought two societies together and brought semi peace to his reality he is now taking it easy and just enjoying life while taking a leadership role of his matru. Voxumo is often refered to as the “Reality Walker” by other beings. Due to how often he journeys from the elintari realty to other realities.AnatomyVoxumo stands about 12 feet high when in his original form (he can change his height depending on the situation). Voxumo also has two wings for flight each wing from tip to end are about 15 feet long. Reason for such large wings is so the can actually bear Voxumo’s weight so he can achieve flight (like the rest of him they can adjust to different sizes. Although Voxumo can change sizes his weight always stays at 800 pounds. Voxumo’s body is made of a special living substance created by the great beings. The substance is made up of spiders each about the size of an atom. There are 2 types: tissue making up his flesh and the other protosteel which makes up his armor. Unlike zaktan he does not appear to be shifting when he is standing still due to the spiders latching together via web that the spiders produce that is harder than protosteel. Each spider holds a minuscule amount of his conscious. If one of the spiders comes unattached involuntarily from the rest that spider dies. But for each spider that dies 50 more are created. Voxumo can only detach 20 voluntarily but they will only survive for 1 hour. The spiders can change along with voxumo for example they can become intangible or increase in size. Voxumo’s kanohi is also made of the spiders but has its own limited conscious. Both voxumo’s and the kanohi fali’s minds are linked. Voxumo’s body is made up of 20 billion+ of the spiders. Due to his unique form if his head were cut off the spiders would recreate his head and mask. Voxumo is not invincible for he can still be harmed by weapons it’s just the spiders heal him quickly but he is still left with the sensation of the pain just the physical evidence is removed. If he does take enough damage he can black out even though the damage is healed. The great beings made the spiders resistant to powers that would normally destroy a body. (Example if he were covered in plasma his body would not melt but he would feel intense burning or if the shadowed one used his eyebeams they would not work but voxumo would feel intense pain same applies to dematerializing powers or spinners etc...). If someone were to look at voxumo he would appear to be one whole mass instead of separate pieces that is how good the great being made him but if he takes damage the wound would look like it was made of separate pieces till it healed. Voxumo finally thought of a name for the spiders, the icanuga or reality spiders although when he talks about them he treats them like their there own individuals instead of a part of him even though they are a part of him.Tools/powersWhat allows voxumo to have so many powers is that each icanuga can store a single power physical or non physical as long as voxumo has seen that power in action. The kanohi fail or the mask of change is very similar to voxumo’s except the powers it’s icanuga hold have to be mask powers but upgrades them to nuva level powers. If voxumo want to summon a power he has to summon the icanuga with that power to the middle of his hand to access the power and he can only summon 2 at a time (2 hands two powers) the power does not just have to be physical (example he can summon the power of fire and telepathy at the same time). Another benefit of his mask is due to it’s limited conscious if he activates a mask power in the middle of battle the fali will keep that power going until he decides to shut it off. Along with the kanohi fail voxumo also has 2 midak skyblaster style weapons that will create a sphere of power that will take on a physical power (example if voxumo were to summon the power of acid the blasters would fire spheres of acid or if he summoned the power of ice the blasters would fire spheres of solid ice. The blasters will not work with powers like telepathy or rahi control.) Voxumo also wield akaden a living staff. Akaden was at one time a fe-matoran that looked up to voxumo and wished to benefit him someway. So akaden experimented on him self till he found a way to merge his body with a weapon he had made. So he went to voxumo asking if he could forge a weapon for him. Voxumo agreed and told akaden that he wanted a staff that had a triple blade attached to the staff. So akaden forged the weapon and once complete merged his body and mind with the staff creating a weapon that would return to voxumo and was unbreakable. So he convinced a matoran that was his friend to deliver him to voxumo. Once voxumo took a hold of akaden, akaden forged a mental link with voxumo so they could communicate. Since then voxumo has wielded akaden as his primary weapon.
