Natur, Rebooted Master of Nature

A long time before Toa Araun was realised, this fellow was my self-MOC: Toa Natur, Toa of Nature! Although I suppose these days he’d be the Master of Nature, wouldn’t he? :wink:
Natur was the star of two series I ran on YouTube back in 2008 - one on my first channel titled Toa Natur VS Makuta Pharex (which is still online, embarrassingly), and another series on my current channel which I regrettably deleted. Natur didn’t have much of a character past being a bit cocky.

This rebooted version of Natur not only uses parts from an XSZ Iron Man figure, but also has its own custom gearbox! I’m not sure what to name this one yet, though.

Simple, but nice! The gearbox is very well-constructed and not all all noticeable, which is what I assume you were going for. The color scheme is also great–I never thought about how well dark red and lime green actually go together.

Man, I am envious of those bootlegs–it’d be great to have more color variety in my collection, but I’m probably too paranoid to actually go for any of them.

Nice work!

I really like the way you designed that torso.

The torso is excellent for any Master moc with a g1 mask.

Well the name and the armoring are pretty bland, but it is a very solid figure, and goes together well.

I’ll be entirely honest. I cut Lego parts. I paint Lego parts. But something bugs me about bootleg parts combined with regular parts.

of what quality are those bootleg sets?

This a really nice MOC! It has a simple, but effective build with lots of solid points. The gearbox and head connection are stellar and well thought out. The color scheme is different from the norm, but works very well, with a nice strike of lime green to go with a darker maroon red. It’s also nice not to see any metallics, because it’s been a long time since I’ve seen many MOCs without.

Colour scheme is interesting, going to take a while to grow on me. Not so sure about the }

Iron Man chest piece, looks too recognisable for me to really value it as anything else, even though its a bootleg piece. Toa Araun is affected by this also to a slightly lesser extent.

Custom Gearbox is nice though :3
