I probably should’ve said integrated instead of using. that feels rather tacked on. [quote=“TolerantAxe97, post:23, topic:27412”]
there is nothing in the competition saying it has to fit into G2

It’s just highly suggested in the contest video, with them showing models of G2 Makuta and all.
So sticking the corrupted masks on and the Mask of Control(which this MOC has) makes it fit into G2? And this Contest allows both G1 and G2 pieces in it. It is not a G2 exclusive contest.
So are you trying to say that unless 1.) A moc is made based of a G2 character or 2.) Based off a G1 character and spiced up with a few G2 masks it has no chance of winning the contest?
pretty much how I feel too since your approval of “Controlled Sentience” is a contradiction of the logic of your previous statements.
So lets either stop or take this to the Lego contests topic do discuss this further since this has basically just turned into my opinion vs your opinion. I think that a new type of moc can win this contest while you think that a moc must be based off of a previous Makuta to win.
I might as well clarify, in JtO Makuta was seen as sort of a “shadow cloud” in the first half. The MOC was based on a MoCo forming energy around it, taking the idea of a pseudo body formed from shadow. Makuta from G2 has been seen in a mostly shadow-consisted form.
It originated as inspiration from that, but adapted into my own creation. All my point is that regardless of the inspiration it has one factor that applies to both G1 and G2; it’s a body of shadow.
@TolerantAxe97 I was looking through the comments section of the Makuta contest and I don’t think that the cape on your moc will be allowed.
Someone asked "I have a question (and I’m not sure I’ve seen it asked yet), but can we use official Lego cloths? Like Kylo Ren’s cape, or Phasma’s cloak? Thank you for your time! "
And an admin responded "capes from LEGO sets are allowed, but please no custom made parts. "
The size of this is quite impressive, it looks good. I’m a sucker for triple jointed legs this this really takes my fancy.
Overall I think this is a good moc
