Actually I would recommmend against using an L4 bar. Those tend to have quite some friction, making it very hard to put them into and getting them out of that ballsocket piece (but it is definitely possible).
Possibly you could substitute by using pinaxles, switching the connectors around and attaching the Bohrok eyes to them with L2 bars… But I admit I’m not sure if L2 bars don’t leave too much of a gap so that the Bohrok eyes still fit under the Nuva shoulder.
Other substitute might be an L3 bar (those don’t have the friction problems of L4 bars), and using two bar clips (Exo Force robot hands) to get to the Bohrok eyes. Those might then even leave enough space that you can add additional stuff onto the bars of the clip pieces.
Hi, im trying to replicate this moc by TheUnderscoredDouble, and i have the wings done, the torso partly done and the legs mostly done.
If y’all veteran builders know how to possibly make the head connection and the back assembly while using old technic/G1 parts, i’d be happy.
I’d ask the guy himself but he doesn’t reply to any DMs in any Social media (flickr, reddit, instagram).
The parts giving me trouble are specifically the back/wings and head connections (which don’t appear in the photo all that well), the onua claws connection in the chest and the foot connection. I noticed im missing some pieces and imma bricklink them, but i’d love to get you guy’s inputs on how to finish it.
Also, some guy had a stud.io file of this moc, and he sent it to me. There are some differences, specially the use of some ccbs parts that i believe weren’t used in the original, but i can link it here if needed.
Edit 2:
I managed to do the head connection in a different way than in the pic, but i like it more. Just need to find a way to put a decorative gear on top
okay, so this barely answers the questions, but here’s the fallout t-60 I made. fits modded metru builds with no mask. its form over function unfortunately
the pilot (modify a metru build to make it, like so)
I’ve been meaning to use upside down Mata torsos as the lower legs for a build, but I’m struggling with an attachment for the upper legs. I’ve made several prototypish designs (forgot some photos oops), but they were all pretty unstable, wobbly, or didn’t look good at all. Any ideas? Doesn’t matter if it has a socket or a ball, I’ll design the upper leg accordingly.
Also, I swear I’ve seen a MOC before that used these torsos as shins, but I can’t find it anymore… Do you perhaps know a build like that?
