Rearticulated Toa Mata

[Vahkiti Master of Time]

So a few years ago, I came up with a pretty solid method of adapting the Toa Nuva to move much like they do in Mask of Light, while retaining most or all of their original parts, and leaving very little out of place to the casual observer. Now I have begun to apply that same concept to the Mata.

 

 

Due to their differing construction, Pohatu, Onua, Lewa, and Kopaka had to be adapted in more noticeable ways, and were a lot more difficult to do so. Any suggestions on how to better that would be appreciated. Also uh.. don't mind the yellow Hau. I still need to order my red one off Bricklink or something. xD

I like these. not fully articulated, but just enough to make them a bit more poseable. Nice work

But I do feel like Tahu getting a Yellow mask might make the others a bit jelly

The lack of poseability is one of the only issues I have with the Toa Mata/Toa Nuva, so it's always neat to see how even simple modifications can fix that as much as possible. It's too bad you can't give them proper elbows or legs without constructing custom models.

This is pretty cool! The only thing that could make it better would be if you could preserve the gear function. There are other ways to preserve the gears with articulation, but yours is by far the most posable.

Pretty neat. I always like seeing how differently people add articulation to their Toa Mata/Nuva. The shoulder articulation is pretty original. Really helps add a MNOG-style degree of motion!
