[Rukah]

uhh… That’s a creative use of the metru torsos…

[SomeBionicleFan23]

Now this is a really good Bomonga

[Grinch]

disqualified for party rocking

[TheJerminator]

It’s a match made in heaven:

This looks really good. I can easily see this as Bomonga.

I’m not sure if that shield attachment is going to qualify, since it’s attached to the hand and not held in the hand:

@Mesonak

Unfortunately not. It’s the same way as wearing a watch on your wrist and having free movement in your fingers doesn’t count as the watch being in your hand. The fact that we can see their fingers automatically makes it a no-go. The type of connection we’re looking for is in keeping with Norik and Iruini and how they hold their shields

(in response to these mocs)

@TheJerminator

It’s a match made in heaven:

now all that’s needed is for someone to use 9 Mettur torsos to make one big guy out of all Mettur torsos.

[SilvakTheMocist]

you can barely see it but in the alt angles he’s holding the shield properly

[Willess12]

No, it’s hooked to the outside of his finger. I don’t think that counts as “holding” any more than being clipped to the back of the hand does.
Also, from that same post:

@Mesonak

Keep in mind: there’s nothing stopping you from including alternative storage methods, action shots, slamming the shield down, etc. or whatever you want as alternative photos in your MoC topic. We love seeing cool stuff, and it could help sell your creation and show it off. Your entry photo, though, has to have the shield be held in the hand or stored on the back.

look at the entry photo, it’s on the back of the hand.

[SilvakTheMocist]

that should still count as holding it lol

[Willess12]

I don’t think so, it’s the same difference as wearing a ring and holding a ring.
but the finger attachment probably depends on the discretion of the hosts. Though the entry photo at least still doesn’t work.

Done. could go for a kicking feature but i dont know if it would look good

[GoodGuy2006]

why do you always say ‘mettur’?

[Willess12]

It’s a weird thing I do where if I make a typo/mispeak that I find funny, I keep using it. I misspelled “Metru” as “Mettur” once when I was typing, so I’ve just kept spelling it that way since.

[VelociJACKtor]

Absolutely love this. Easily the best Bomonga. Can’t wait for it to be canon!

[SubParFauxPas]

This absolutely slaps.

brilliant comparison photo too

[Slapper-bio]

love those arms

[Racie02]

I don’t think this will be allowed, your comparison shot shows that he’s nearly thrice as tall as Iruini.

@Senit

Done

Are you gonna post it somewhere…?

[Toa-of-Onions]

Oh man this kind of rules. LOVE the Metru torsos as legs – not quite as big a fan of them as forearms, but it’s such a fun concept I’m still on board. Honestly the only thing that might give me pause about voting for this is the size of his thighs and torso relative to his massive limbs, I can’t help but think his core is kind of comically small by comparison. I would probably extend his torso by a couple studs and given him some kind of pelvis armor and chunkier thighs to balance things out? But hey, I don’t want to nitpick, cause this is about as unique as you can get without going overboard. Great work!
