Miscellaneous Matoran by TahnokTrapper

You know me: I like Matoran and I like making mocs of forgotten canon characters. Latley, I’ve been screwing around and creating some mocs of forgotten Matoran. Here’s a collection of them.

First off, the three unfortunate victims of Toa Tuyet. Tried out some unsued/underutilised masks and colour combination for the MetruToran.

Ignalu

Fau

Mizuni

If their names sound familiar, it’s because they’re named after Ignalu Lava Racing, Fau Swamp and Gali Nuva’s Mizuni Rotors. I feel those names had to come from somewhere, so here.


Moving on, a couple of familiar names:

Kodan - this design is technically not mine, rather, it’s based on Tammy Calamity’s version of the character seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8aw3h9VOrZ4. All I did was give him a scopeless Matatu and modded the staff.

Ihu - a well known fanfic focusing on Ihu gave him a Hau. I didn’t really want to give him the vanilla Mata Hau, felt it would make him look too much like Lumi. So I figured he ordered a custom Hau for himself.

Next, the three major MahriToran not to have a physical appearance - (L-R) Reysa, Gar and Kyrehx. A lot of people give the the leftover Toa Hagah masks. It’s a decision that I found appealing, so I borrowed it. Notice the slight differences in build.

Finally, a couple of VoyaToran

Ampua - the second victim of Piraka’s Zamor Spheres. Island of Doom specifically states this guy was a Ko-Matoran. Similar to Vinurr, one of his parts is a different colour, thanks to Karzahni running out of parts. Since he was a later batch of KarzahniToran, he never received any special weapons - he wields a pair of rudimentary hunting spears.

Cadura - the Matoran who fell into a volcano in the same book (I made him a Fe-Matoran). Wields a couple of Plasma Cutters, tools that can cut through metal, as well as produce small blasts of plasma.

Those colors look nice on Mizuni, I like that you didn’t just slap the basic Metru colors all over them. Those Mahritoran are also very fun. The choice to use the rest of the Hagah masks was a good one, it makes them feel less like fan MOCs and more like official sets. In fact, it makes me really wish we got some more Mahritoran sets. Such a good build but we only ever got two.

Yes, Mizuni was one I was very excited about - it seems there was never a solely medium blue Ga-Matoran, aside from Kailani from MNOG2. And I agree, we absolutely should’ve gotten more MahriToran sets - that build is severely underrated.
