Helryx, the Disturbingly Frail (Canon Contest #1 | The First)

I think you’re being a little subjective here. Hoseryx is minimalistic, sleek, and fits all the criteria. The armor is very minimal but it is indeed there.

It has a shield and mace but no armor. The body is just frame and hose.

Can the frame not be part of the armor? I’m sorry, but in a lot of the fan art it’s show with the frame representing very minimalist armor. It takes some imagination to apply but please don’t try and assume that you know everything that this moc represents.

I don’t see anything wrong with that knowing that it fits the criteria. Plus anyone can build it, too, which is a nice addition to the build! I sure hope this wins.

Both do not seem to have unfamiliar armor, but only one seems “disturbingly frail”. Furthermore, armor is oftentimes used to describe both one’s own body as well as what we consider “armor” in the books. Masks are armor, things literally part of a toa body are armor (like shoulders and knees).

For many, Bendryx fulfills the criteria quite well. 2 on the other hand, does have armor but is not “disturbingly frail”. Finally, Bendryx has inspired a lot more creative art and builds, so 6 has my vote overall.

Im diggin this design bro, being an old toa probably means she would be very basic. Nice minimilistic design.

as an ancient being, i really like the lack of modern technology added onto the design. primitive, leaving much room for accessories and whatnot to be added for creativity if one wanted. personally, i’d keep her as is though, minimal kibble and looking great!

doesnt it make sense she would look like this, imagine the first toa ever, its just muscle with some metal slapped on… the great beings experiment

Yep. She looks like something cooked up without any schematics, just a general idea in mind. And the imagination people have had in interpreting how she would look in-universe is great.

It’s way too bulky though. It isn’t Frail/thin.

If if’s and but were candies and nuts, we’d all have a merry christmas. the fact is that it IS too bulky. The people of the bionicle fandom have spoken and Hoseryx has won.

Time for greg to reject it

Why would he reject it?

Looks horrible and doesnt fit. He himself said it would likely resemble the toa mata.
