Dorek Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 LEGO was kind enough to provide us with detailed models of the JTO model so that it should be easy enough to build it now; at some point I might myself go and create step-by-step instructions, but this will more than suffice.

The Invisible Handman Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Oh my yessss..... it's perfect! It's times like this we can see why Lego hired these people as set designers.

emily Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Radical. Thanks so much to the Bionicle team for being so responsive to the community and getting these pictures to us asap. And thanks to the designers for making it a reality, too!

Since a mask is just a small piece, commercially available 3D printing might be a solution. I have started a bit with 3D design a half year ago, but quickly stopped once I realized that I won't be able to truly learn it alone so I enlisted on a course on Udemy. It might take some months, but once I complete the course I might get into designing a 3D model of the Mask of Ultimate Power, if we still won't have one by that time, that is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toa Lhikan Hordika Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 Thanks so much for sharing these Dorek! You are awesome! Just purchased all of the sets for him, so hopefully I'll be able to build him soon.

Dark_Stranger Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 This is an absolute lifesaver and is doubtless going to swallow a lot of my money.

RJtheBionicler Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Currently building it in LDD. Will share when finished!Actually found this great video. Slow it down to 25% speed with 1080 and its very easy to see. When he mentions being short on shells he's wrong; he forgot LoSS's. you will be one ball joint short but I plan on pulling one from my collection.

Rakrondewl Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 (edited) I just found a review video of the JTO Makuta and in it the reviewer states that he contacted LEGO's customer service and was told that instructions for the model will be released in about a week (it has been a week since he posted this video, so any day now). Edit: Confirmed to be rumor by LEGO employee (one of the designers) over on TTV. I personally would still like the instructions for the Overlord version more, but that's probably just me.
