Sergei Rahkmaninoff Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 Gallery This MOC was intended for the preliminary round of the 2017 Bio-Cup contest on Flickr, the prompt for which was to re-imagine a Lego set in Bionicle form. I've always thought some of the coolest System sets were from Mars Mission, and the Alien Infiltrator already has sort of a humanoid silhouette, so that was a natural choice for me. Unfortunately I was too busy to finish it in time for the contest, but I still definitely wanted to finish and post it at some point. Enjoy! 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pohaturon Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 Blimey, this is super impressive. I love how you incorporated specific elements and motifs of the original set instead of phoning it in with a similar aesthetic and color scheme like many would have. The subtle touches of red and the shaping is magnificent. Quote Stone rocks Model Designer at The LEGO Group. Former contributor at New Elementary. My MOCs can be found on Flickr and Instagram.

The Invisible Handman Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Good use of the alien pieces here, it properly fits the theme. Integrating plasters into the arms is a nice touch too. It's a nice blend of Technic and system and for that I tip my hat. Well done!

Cajun Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Well done model. I like that you use the system parts to approximate Bionicle-type pieces. 1 Quote http://plasmicbricks.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master Inika Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 Nice. I agree it looks like a BIONICLE set despite being System. Does it transform into a ship? That'd be a great upgrade if it doesn't already. Quote "You are an absolute in these uncertain times. Your past is forgotten, and your future is an empty book.

VahiHolder02 Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 Fantastic work! Mars Mission has always been among my favorite space themes, and it never fails to catch my attention when someone uses those distinctive alien sticker pieces. Bravo!
