Welcome back to the BIONICLE Eternal Fan Project!
Bionicle Eternal is a story-based project, with custom constraction models representing important characters from the tale. Visit our advertising thread on these boards for more information about the project and its members, and also our website, where you can read about the lore, story, and characters.
Even though we have no more models lined up for release, our first wave of content has not yet ended. We still have three more chapters to release over the next weeks. All of our currently available content–twelve models, three written teasers, and one main story–are available at the links below, or on our weekly updated website.

BIONICLE Eternal Wave One Model Culmination
Toa teaser.
All toa.
All Wave 1 models!
Matoran How-To
All matoran of this wave were built upon one highly customizable frame. In case any of your were curious or interested, I thought I would show how to build one. We’ll use Shu-Tural as a model.
Parts
These are the parts necessary to build one of the frames. Keep in mind that the colors of these parts can be changed to customize the color scheme of the model. Predominantly light gray was used for Shu-Tural.

And now a word from team lead @jayzor17
Hello, all, and thank you for your support so far. While this marks the end of our current wave of sets, Bionicle Eternal as a whole is just getting started. We have more of our story to be released in the coming weeks, and even more models planned farther down the line.
That being said, any and all feedback is appreciated. Hearing that you enjoyed certain sets or part of the story is heartwarming, and criticism helps us to do better in the future.
I would like to thank my fellow staff-members as well; they do a very good job at making me feel like a slacker with all of the hard work and energy they’ve put into this project.
If there’s anything else you would like to see from us, let us know. Other than that, enjoy!
