So yesterday my “Mask Maker vs. Skull Grinder” set came in the mail. I didn’t like how the set’s Ekimu looked like with the “Mask of Creation”, The mask was so big compared to the protector sized Ekimu. So I decided to build a bigger Ekimu, He’s rather simple and uses the Tahu build, I was too lazy to come up with a new and complex build. I also didn’t change the hammer because my Ekimu moc just uses it like Thor’s Hammer. I wanted my moc to be slender but also built. He has the same function as Kopaka. (Prepare to be underwhelmed.)
I kept Mata Nui’s build slightly similar to his original build. I had to change a few things so it would be easier to build the mech suit. I spent a few hours building it, but I got bored and will probably work on it when i get more pieces from ebay or something. It’s still a WIP and I would appreciate some input/advice as I am stumped on how to build his feet.
Ekimu is pretty bad because of his really long legs that have very exposed backs and don’t look good. Plus he’s just a tahu knock-off. However, the mata-nui mech is incredibly awesome.
Yeah lol, That’s what I thought when I first built Ekimu. Though I still thought he was worthy of sharing. I already disassembled him when I made this topic. Hopefully some day I’ll revamp my Ekimu moc with a completely new build. And Thanks, the Mata Nui mech was a request. Hopefully one I will finish. lol.
Yeah, I don’t know when it will be finished, but I’ll definitely be making updates to the mech and maybe Ekimu. I always have a hard time with system so it’ll take a while.
Well, I think Ekimu’s hammer could stand to be a bit bigger, but obviously that’s easier said than done. And as for Mata Nui’s Exo-suit, just keep it as-is! He can use his actual legs to get around, or maybe have is Exo-arms walk like some kind of oversized gorilla!
