Also, if you were curious, yes, the models are all 100% color purist, all these parts exist in these colors.

Update: Instructions completed! Build to your hearts content!~

(Another P.S. I just now realized not all the parts are available in certain colors; I will update the studio file to make it 100% purist, my apologies. Changes: 92690 is now pearl dark grey, 2x 86876 now replaced with 1x 17485 with dark grey 89678s on either side, all lime and orange 35480s replaced with lime and orange 3023s)

Leave a like if you like this build, and please share your thoughts!

Play well!! :slight_smile:

Fits so well with the bionicle concept: create new creatures with the parts of the ones you already have !
Now I want to see this fusion in OG set form ! ^^

How? They looks awesome!
I guess they can’t flap their wings like the original model.

They kind of can! the wings are connected on 32828 bits, so they can move forward and back, but it does look a little weird

@WorldTraveller Nui-Kopen is actually an official combo model of the original Nui-Rama! It’s a really fun build if you have the sets :slight_smile:

Outstanding!! I’ve always had nostalgic attachments to the Nui-Rama set as it was the only one of the 2001 Rahi I had as kid, and you absolutely nailed the look of it to a T!

I especially love how the eyes are still made of the GWP style head and that you went so far as to make a combo model as if it was a real set. If you ever release the Studio file or instructions I’d buy it in a heartbeat. Best of luck!
