Mods To the 2016 Sets

Wow! These are all really nice. I’m glad my design worked well for you. I like the triple-jointed legs on the beasts, not only does it give better coverage, but it still has that beastly look. Ekimu looks quite nice with your adjustments, and Umarak’s torso’s is in much better shspe.

I plan on modding UTD’s neck but I have no clue what to do. Can any of you help me out?

I’m not personally liking all that much this fix but it might give an idea of what you want to do with yours.

Agreed, the gap is kinda still there and the neck extends just a tad bit more.
As much as I appreciate hunchbacks, I would’ve rather rehashed the design completely so that its sticks up or at an angle rather than in an L shape.

Umarak looks 10 times better with those proportions! Great mods in general!

Thank you all so much! :smiley:

@Toa_Straya here’s the Storm Beast design.


Core leg construction.
Finished leg front and back view.
Body not really changed with the exception of some light gray pieces swapped for black.<img
New neck design

This is what I use to lock the function.

Just attach it on there.

It works!

The core arm construction.

The arm
.
The tail’s construction.

And it all built up!

Attach it to the body along with two white studs.

Here is Storm Beast!

Here are about half of my Winter 2016 revamps/mods. Little late. :stuck_out_tongue:


Lewa! For some reason people always shy away from the regular CCBS arm structure for him. I didn’t like the arms and normal arms were an easy solution. Also added some yellow and used some green markers to highlight parts in the vorox armor and chestplate.

Normal Lewa.

Yes Lewa is capable of storing his weapons!

Uxar from the front, you should notice some eyes.

I reoriented the wings backwards so he can fold them in. Also added some yellow spikes to the front legs, vines to the back legs, and trans green studs.

Not much changed from the back.

I used some blue marker and highlighted the eyes. It came out purple-blue.

Here’s a stand that I just threw together.

Lewa and Uxar united!

Here’s Onua. I took the same blue marker and made the crystal pieces blue and purple-ish. It’s purple with the naked eye/glasses and blue when light shines through it. Pretty satisfied, probably gonna get a purple marker soon.

I enabled him to hold the hammer in one hand, changed the feet, and lengthened his legs a little. Also his upper arms are purple.

His back construction.

I did the same for Terak too with his crystals. Also gave him eyes.

Terak has shoulders closer to the front of his body and less broad shoulders.

I gave him blue-ish green eyes. Probably going to get a sky blue marker and see what it does.

The back, all I did was lock his function with one piece.

UNITY! The narrower shoulders make it kinda hard to pose the hands on Onua’s shoulder pad.

Kopaka! I made his arms pretty much regular CCBS, lengthened the lower arm and attached gold armor with the white piston add-on. The lower leg has been lengthened and the upper leg armor from Kopaka 2k15 has been put on it with the Hero Factory armor piece over it. I also made him right handed.

Just him standing.

His back, lower legs have coverage. You’ll see what the things on the backs of his upper legs are.

He can store both his weapons!

Melum. Made him beefy as heck, claws on feet, bigger claws on hands, fur on the arms. Eyes too.

He stares at you with his cold black eyes…

Black eyes.

The back. Nothing is really changed.

United!

That’s my Mods for now. See you all soon!

Thank you. I hate Lewa 2016’s arms. It’s the only problem I have with him. It’s great you fixed it.

I really enjoy these revamps. You improved on all of them quite well, especially Lewa’s shoulders and Kopaka’s gold.

Though this may be considered an illegal connection, this is quite satisfying for anyone who revamps the Uniter of Jungle. The design is by Logan McOwen. Fun fact, this was made way before the leaked images, before we even had a clue the Vorox armor would be coming back in various recolors. Kind of a coincidence.

I don’t think it is… maybe only when strain is put on it, like when you attach anything over a 3mm shell.

I actually considered that while revamping Lewa. :laughing:
I just didn’t do it because I need that green on the lower legs. The silver was too much. TOO MUUUUUUUUUCH

also because Lewa would remain the midget of the group

There is a bone in the size needed that is in Trans. Apple/Bright Green in the Umarak the Hunter set, if that’s a good fix.

Just tried it but not really digging it.
But it’s the thought that counts

Yeah, I might do this, it will look like something uniter Lewa has.


This is also a really minor fix, it will make it so you can spin the saw more individually of the shield. The original configuration uses the grey pin which has too much friction.

So sort of like Tahu Uniter? I think they would also work well on the forearms and feet too. Now that I think about it, I sort of wish they produced transblue feet.

(Note: I posted this earlier in Mods to the 2015 sets, but I think it can go here too.)
QUESTION:
What do you get when The Protector of Fire wears the Golden Mask of Fire, and runs into Ikir?

ANSWER:
The United Protectors of FIRE!

Now here’s another question:

What do you get when The Protector of Ice wears the Golden Unity Mask of Ice, and runs into Melum?

ANSWER:
The United Protectors of ICE!

How the United Protectors of Fire are built.

NARMOTO: "Hey!"

IZOTAR: "Your mask fell off Narmoto. PICK IT UP."
Melum roars with laughter.

IZOTAR: "We still love you bro."
Melum and Izotar hug Narmoto.

And here is the other half of my Bionicle 2016 Winter wave revamps!(or 4/7 if you prefer)

Starting with Tahu!


Just wanna get this out there, design stolen from @LoganMcOwen :stuck_out_tongue: Just liked the design and the swords on the back caught my eye and when I remove them, Tahu just looks empty. Really empty. Like something’s missing. I gave him red hands.

I got some red marker and highlighted the stuff on his torso. Too much GOLD.

I used red bohrok eyes because I used the other trans-orange eyes on my Kulta revamp. Also coverage on the lower legs.

Next to his creature, Ikir.


Not much changed. Eyes, red “hands”, and a flame on the tail.

I gave Ikir green eyes.


The flame.

Now here’s the stand I made for Ikir. Random parts that just hold together and allow him to hover above the ground.
He can either be actively flying to who knows where to…

Just staying in one place above the ground.

Here is Tahu and Ikir united! The swords match up nicely with the wings and just the whole premise of PHOENIX TAHU! is gr8.

Next to Gali.


Leg design from @LoganMcOwen, however the upper legs are the same length as her 2015 upper legs and the spikes on the knee armor are small. The lower arm has been extended, with a 5-long dark azure shell over it with an orange spike and the upper arm is a black bone with a dark trans-blue shell.

The upper arms are more clear.

Back shot.

I made Akida’s stand taller.

Akida has pink eyes.

New tail design, uses 2 of those shortest bones.

I streamlined Akida more. Got rid of those bushings.

Sharkgirl Gali!

Pohat-O!
The arm design is by @LoganMcOwen.

I gave Pohatu completely burnt orange arms with silver spikes.

The lower legs and the shells on those lower legs have all been extended.

Ketar’s core design and function by @LoganMcOwen. Just looked so GOOD!


Gave Ketar gold-yellow-orange-ish eyes.

Ketar from the side.

From the top, I got some studs to cover up holes and give more color.

Pohatu and Ketar united!

Onto Umarak the Hunter. I changed his hand designs to the ones @LoganMcOwen gave him, had his ankle spikes put on his upper legs, and in place of them the extra trans-green bohrok eyes I had from revamping Lewa. I also had his shoulders placed higher and his back, lower leg, things with armor attached. Man I really did take a lotta things from Logan. and that bag got in the picture :unamused:


Him dual wielding.

With both his weapons stored.

From the back.
AND MY BACKPACK AND THE BAG. I GOT THE DOUBLE COMBO.

Where would Umarak be without his trusty Shadow Traps? Also I made an ice one.
I gave them eyes based on the respective Bohrok of the same element, but swapped the eyes of the Earth ST and the Water ST.

Now for Umarak and Shadow Trap derps!

Fire Trap: yay
Umarak: sigh

Stone Trap: derp
Umarak: facepalm

Water Trap: RIP in pieces
Umarak: AGGGGGHHHH

Jungle Trap: uh a skull spider
Umarak: YOU BRING ME SKULL SPIDERS? WHY?! THIS IS A CREATURE, THAT IS NOT!

Earth Trap: me no can stand
Umarak: Okay let’s aim this bow towards my face…

Ice Trap: shrekt
Umarak: I can’t stand this. stab

1/10 because you colored the pieces.

The mods look very nice though. I liked the way you used the Bohrok eyes on Tahu.
