Grillon, Toa of Fire

IMG_0938[1].JPG2592Ă—1936 656 KB

Grillon: Grillon: By far not your typical Ta-matoran growing up, Grillon decided to be a healer, and when the war came he even spoke out against it. Needless to say, in a family of warriors he was rather unpopular. Even now as a Toa of Fire, he uses his powers to heal. And most of all: he longs for a peaceful ending to this war, to the fighting and suffering - he just doesn’t know how.

Ohhhhh man, This guy is probably my new favorite. that torso build is just amazing, and the blue studs ad some neat contrast. Nice balance between G1 and CCBS pieces! The Huna looks amazing on him!

No badguys?

I don’t know what to say about this guy. I would add more gray pieces in the legs and maybe in the upper torso. The upper torso definitely needs more dark red. 9,5/10
Where can I find this project?

The only thing I can wish for is a larger weapon, but this makes sense if he’s the healer. All of these characters seem designed to break the stereotypes of the G1 stories, which is daring! I think the team looks awesome! :+1:

Also, where did these shoulder plates come from? I haven’t seen them in that color…

The lower legs are a bit stubby, but great job!

They’re all really good. But I like Grillon’s color scheme the best. Red and dark red are just a great combo together.

Well, in the context of the real lines, the “good guys” and “bad guys” would be in separate waves. However, in the context of the story, really the “bad guys” are each-other. The Toa are not yet united, they’re in three different factions of an island-spanning war.

@Toa_Vladin As said by Rocka on this post and the others, the main home of the project is our website.

Well, to be fair, he’s technically not got a weapon at all in the story, honestly.

The praise is appreciated, and yes, that was part of the intention.

Where are the oath-locks?

It’s symbolic in Tay culture for a promise of significance to the tribe, reflecting the region’s value of honor.

More information can be found here at our Fire Tribe lore page.

I think he’s asking why the model doesn’t have them. :stuck_out_tongue:

I remember it coming up at some point; I’m pretty sure it was a matter of getting something that looked like an oath-lock on that scale, and it just wasn’t something we figured out how to do.

What he said.

Oh, I completely misread the question. My apologies. :stuck_out_tongue:

Now that I’m thinking about it, they are a detail I can probably add in the future. Good catch!

I would suggest using the system lock pieces, though they might look a bit out of place.
