cjr205 Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 I like the style of this MOC, because it really looks like the original thing, while adding new details. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooster Nui Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 It's simple, yet effective. I can easily see how it's a Nuhvok due to how the pieces convey the Bohrok structure and appearance, even though the details are different with CCBS. It's definitely a neat, little creation. Nice job. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axilus Prime Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 Oh now that just looks great. The bulging eyes and fangs really work here. It's also so clearly a Bohrok that I have to give bonus points for that. Very recognizable and looks cooler than the original. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kopekemaster Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 it's the new-vok. **ba-dum-psh** No, seriously, I actually came here to say that. But the MOC is great; I really like the insectine-styling, especially around the mouth. 4 Quote My Writing Blog (more writing coming soon!)

Pohatu: Uniter of Stone Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 (edited) My only complaint is the use of the hero factory things as eyes. Bohrok eyes are still in use and would have felt better on this MOC, IMO. Other than that, I don't know what to criticize. It's a remake? It's plastic? The photo is too good? This MOC is a work of art. 9.5/10.

CeziuM Posted November 19, 2015 Author Share Posted November 19, 2015 Ey, thanks everyoneMy only complaint is the use of the hero factory things as eyes. Bohrok eyes are still in use and would have felt better on this MOC, IMO. Other than that, I don't know what to criticize. It's a remake? It's plastic? The photo is too good? This MOC is a work of art. 9.5/10.I've tried using vanilla Bohrok eyes prior to using the BA visors. They didn't really fit the insectoid look I was trying to achieve, and they looked way too small. Besides, I tried to use as few pieces the original had as possible. Thanks for the input though! Quote Want your own Mask of Ultimate Power?

BrickPharaoh Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Brilliant MOC. The eyes are particularly well done as well. The Skull Spider as a brain is ingenious!

Alto Magna Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Impressive build, while I was a little sceptical at first glance I changed my mind as soon as I saw the flickr gallery. I'm really happy that you can fold it up like the G1 designs, and the usage of a Skull Spider mask(?) for the new Krana is cool thinking.

Onuki Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Nice work! You did a good job of making a Bohrok remake that's bigger in every way: bigger eyes, bigger (and multiple!) teeth, bigger claws, and even a bigger Krana! I'm impressed that you preserved the original look while changing most of the pieces besides the classic Bohrok head. And it can still roll up! Great work, thanks for posting!

Imnotactive Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Clean it all... It all must be cleaned...Great MOC, and its not just a bohrok made out of CCBS, the skull spider as a krana means this could have relevance to the 2015/2016 story (a non-cannon version of the story) Quote I liked G2. Also known as:AguyinahatAleksyi also i write some and do some art, bad at both though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evergrey: Toa of Music Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 I love that it can still fold up into a ball. If it couldn't do that, it wouldn't be valid.

Tarn Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 This is really cool. I like the use of a Skull Spider as a Krana, among other things. Quote [BZPRPG] (shout out to max) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comptsy Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 I can definitely tell that it's a bohrok, and the mandibles look great. I think that this design looks much more insectoid than the original design, but still looks like a bohrok, mostly from the eyes and mandibles. Including the curling-up-to-roll mode also shows that you have succeeded in creating one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toa of Ice - 1987 Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 This thing is amazing. Pros Managing to keep the ball folding ability is greatDefinitely captures the bohrok feel as a whole while not using any old pieces except for headplatesSkull Spider as a brain is cleverConsThe silver weapons is a big setoff in contrast to black, but still very minorOverall: 9.9/10 How about trying for a Tahnok with a blue skull spider brain next (if you think can do it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tahu3.0 Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 That is a incredible moc but i have to ask HOW DO YOU MAKE SUCH CREATION ON CCBS!!!! i mean it looks awesome.

-Windrider- Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 Incredible work, here. I really enjoy the eyes. I do wish, however, that the jaw could be made wider, or that the outer teeth could be turned inward a bit. Something about the angle at which they're positioned vis-à-vis the rest of the face seems off to me. Oh, and you picked perfect pieces for the handshields.

CeziuM Posted November 28, 2015 Author Share Posted November 28, 2015 As always, thanks for the input everybody.This thing is amazing.

I'd go for a different element, but unfortunately I don't have bohrok shields in other colors. That is a incredible moc but i have to ask HOW DO YOU MAKE SUCH CREATION ON CCBS!!!! i mean it looks awesome.1. Take a piece.2. Take another piece.3. Stick 'em together4. Repeat until MOC is finished Incredible work, here. I really enjoy the eyes. I do wish, however, that the jaw could be made wider, or that the outer teeth could be turned inward a bit. Something about the angle at which they're positioned vis-à-vis the rest of the face seems off to me. Oh, and you picked perfect pieces for the handshields.Ey, thanks. The outer teeth were sort of an afterthought, I figured having tusks would give the otherwise insectoid bohrok a more alien appearance. Quote Want your own Mask of Ultimate Power?

Nescent Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 I really love this. There have been a few attempts at G2 Bohrok, but yours is the only one I've seen that does it right. The Skull Spider Krana is ingenious, and it looks like it could actually be a real set. The ability to roll into a ball just takes this the extra mile.

Maskmaker of Light Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 Wow! This is an extremely nice looking remake of the famous Bohrok! It looks really good, and still has the Ball Function!

joev14 Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 Loving the sneaky incorporation of the Skull Spider underneath the headplate. This whole model is genius.

Endless Sea (Alaki Nuva) Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 My only complaint is that the ball form isn't perfect, but the fact that you managed one at all is still very impressive. Nice. Quote It is not for us to decide the fate of angels. Dominus Temporis, if you're out there, hit me up through one of my contacts. I've been hoping to get back in touch for a long time now.

Fsnorglepuff Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 As others have mentioned, the large silver elements would be better as black. Otherwise, it's terrific. I especially like the mouth detail and (particularly by the choice of feet) it ties back into the original Bohrok origins.
