MOCist’s comments:

This is my entry to the TTV Channel’s Brickonicle contest. I wanted to make something that would really said ‘Bionicle’ to me. And after finding some good inspiration, I was ready to build and entry of my own. The ancient city in G2 had a lot of unseen architecture, and I wanted to execute that in this set.

I thought building some knock-able busts using constraction masks would be really neat. That’s why I made a monument. And to add some more play, I added some spring-loaded and stud shooters at the end of each side. For the bad guys, I chose the Skull Warriors, since they are horde villains, which works for an “ambush”. And the cannon I built worked out very well with them.

It’s simple, but the function makes this seem like a Ninjago Spinjitzu Spinner set, which is a definite good thing as it’s probably what Lego would do with Bionicle had they given it the normal treatment for a Lego theme.
