Hi, Sokoda again with my new G3 Set concept. I really want to see how you react to my newest creation, which is a typicall LEGO vehicle set. I thought, for my final set of my first wave, I want to go back too my roots a bit and do a similar set to my first one I uploded here, I also think, that LEGO would want to have at least a couple vehicle sets in a new line.
As always I had to add the masks, and some parts of onua that are not in the LDD after rendering the images. This is to show how the set would look with these pieces.
The Set has 404 pieces(including the 2 masks)
My new set contains the main build, Vorahks Devourer and a little scenery of the Tiro landscape. The included minifigures are Vorahk, Onua and a Matoran student.
1. Vorahks Devourer
For Vorahks Devourer I wanted to build a truck or tank like vehicle, which tries to capture the typical G1 Rahkshi look, and also go for a very skeletal look. My intention for the design for all things concerning Vorahk was that with his hunger attribute, you could go in two ways: Make him a really bulky character, because of his hunger, or make him really skinny, almost like a skelleton, and thats why he is all about hunger. I chose to make him rather small and skinny, to contrast Onua. Thats why I went for a skeletton-like looking vehicle.
The back of the Devourer has the typicall Rahkshi-spikes
The model has an integrated function, that makes the Rahkshi-mout open and close, when the Devourer drives. (which is another tie to Vorahks hunger-attribute)
(Gear function for the mouth)
Inside the “rip-cage” you can stow Vorahks weapons
2. The Scenery
As alway I includet a little bit of scenery for the region of Tiro with a little sign. It can be connected to some of my other set concepts. I was trying to go for a forest or swamp look.
3. The Minifigures
As I explained above, I wanted to go for a very skinny looking Vorahk so I gave him the LEGO minifigures “Pan-legs”. In my opinion these retain the look of @Oomatu s art, but don’t make the figure too large.
I tried to do Onua as close to the official designs as possible, which was really hard this time (because, whil we got new pieces in LDD it only has one Axl arm and not the torso), so the image is kind of put together outof many pieces and I hope you like how it looks.
The final minifigure is a Matoran, I imagine to be a student in Tiro.
Here you can see the minifigure accessories a bit better, with Vorahk using his spears like in the Rahkshi weapon concepts by @DarkHenrik and @Oomatu.
This was my final set for my first wave. I have now done one set for each region.
I will soon take a bit of a time off, but before that I will post another topic with some questions for the community and maybe some little surprises.
I hope you enjoy my new set concept
