I attempted to incorporate this idea that she is thin and frail not simply into her build (the bone thin abdomen, exposed silver and technic details), but into her fighting style, as a warrior of unmatched skill and dexterity

While a mace would usually be a brutal, bludgeoning weapon, my depiction of Helryx used a more reserved and refined version of the weapon. in her prime, Helryx would strike with harrowing precision into the core of the enemy as she dodged and parried their blows. after enduring eons of battle however, her mace remains as a symbol of
her past, of her past strength, of her past deeds.…

All righty then, let’s get this show on the road.

As you can see this was done in stud.io with the use of Swampkryakwa’s parts pack (I think?). The most recent version of the pack is linked on his reddit user page Here . Mask is by Khingk, available on thingiverse , Shapeways , and for stud.io as part of his parts pack, the link for which can be found in his reddit thread on the subject.

Poseability is on par with an inika build, with a little extra at the shoulders from the double ball joint design (borrowed from my mata redesigns and adapted to fit).
And now for a few breakdowns:

Starting simple with the mace; the shield is pretty self-explanatory.

Next up is the hip assembly, minus the mata torso (attached sideways, more on that at the end of th…

Here’s my entry, hopefully it’s abiding by the rules. I may update with additional pictures soon, namely one where every piece used is displayed, as well as some without a mask on.

This is my version of Toa Helryx, hope you like
I did this one long ago because I wanted to create my own versions of ALL the alive Bonks on Spherus Magna, and I decided to start with the Toa.

Here is my entry to the Toa Helryx contest:
“She closed her eyes and drew upon all her power. If she had any doubt or regrets, she pushed them aside. Helryx would do what she had always done: whatever was necessary.” - Narrator, Reign of Shadows
Here is my take on the First Toa, the leader of the Order of Mata Nui, Toa Helryx. As a Toa of Water, naturally, I stuck to a blue theme - utilizing different shades throughout the build. She is approximately 9 inches tall (the canon height for a Toa). Her spiked mace and shield are silver, representing the Protosteel material that they are composed of. I also chose her armor and limb parts to have gaps - in reference to the anciency of her armor and the pits and scars from the countless battles that she has experienced. Her mask design was said to look nothing like anything Takanuva had ev…

And here is my own take, figured we needed some more green in the order of Mata-Nui
So, the first toa, the prototype made by the great beings.
Not as heroic looking as one might expect huh?

when starting this I knew I wanted to do something a little different with the aesthetic of her armor, as it doesn’t look like what takanuva would of seen before. meaning it wouldn’t be like a metru or a nuva body, maybe even unlike an inika build.
so I tried building her with a more Glatorian aesthetic, the idea being that she was a prototype, likely based on the look a decorated warrior from the core war, and tested against other prototypes.

Who knows how many others like her could of gone through the gauntlet and were discarded. but that is just my own personal head-cannon.

As the first ever Toa, Helryx may lack polish, but she’s built to get the job done.
I imagine early Toa, such as the Toa Mata, were designed with a particular fighting style in mind. Later Toa have more refined frames well suited to a variety of fighting styles. Going with this idea, I made Helryx asymmetrical to fit her equipment. Helryx’s large weapon arm lets her deal strong blows with her mace. The shoulder and knee armor on her mace side protect her when she swings. Helryx’s other side features lighter armor since her large shield covers it. Even her shield is asymmetrical for a reason; it tapers toward the bottom, exposing Helryx’s leg so she can quickly advance with her shield up.
