What do you guys think about those huge specialized Bionicle pieces like Gadunka’s head, the Visorak torso, and even things like Mata torsos, among others?
Personally, I’ve never liked them at all. They’re difficult to MOC with and don’t provide much of a interesting build with all of that bulk. I’ve seen some people use things like Metru torsos as legs and such, but they still take up so much space and are difficult to build around and modify.
What are the most creative ways you guys have used these pieces in MOCs, and what are your general thoughts on them?
@JMP
Aye, I saw. Another issue I have with those pieces are that they very obviously look like what they were made to be. Fenrakk heads look like Fenrakk heads, and are very hard to integrate into a MOC. @Toatrex
Yeah, they work pretty well as limbs. Do you have any pictures?
I dunno, I found the Visorak torsos the hardest to work with. Gadunka’s head wasn’t very helpful either. Most of the time, it’s because of how they’re shaped, and the lack of pin and axle holes that they become not very useful pieces.
I used the mata torsos as the heads of a hammer and the Visorak carapaces as shields. Other than that I just used them as their intended purpose, making spiders out of Visorak, using torsos as torsos, and using Gadunka’s head as the head of a water-based titan.
