Hey, I wanted to get these out before the rules were posted. I fully expect the Hagah contest to be limited to just Metru builds, and I have no real qualms with that; I didn’t personally have too many ideas for that buildspace so I decided to experiment with a body type similar to the Metru, but with Inika-style flexibility. I think it’d be really cool if the Hagah didn’t all share a bodytype, as I don’t think it’s explicitly stated anywhere in the story. But Visorak years are my big gaping hole, so I could be wrong. I hope you guys find these interesting, and if the rules are only metru builds, I look forwards to seeing some cool ones!
Kualus first; He’s the more complete of the two.
Don’t mind that the Metru build is trash tier, I didn’t have any lying around.
This should give you the concept this model is built around; I’m using Metru (And Metru adjacent) shoulders on smaller joints to emulate the most difficult part of the metru build. These don’t have full range of motion, but I’m very happy with how much I got out of them. I’ll have more pics of Kualus at the bottom, but I’m going to slot in Bomonga before this gets bloated.
Bomonga is conceptually finished, just in a “hunt down parts” phase.
He’s using a different attachment system for the KK shoulders; I’ll put it down in the massdump of photos.
Cursed comparison…
In story, it’s stated that the Hagah weren’t originally paired, rather they were handpicked. Considering the very first Toa was Lesovikk, I think there’s space for different bodytypes amongst members. I’ll concede they gained new armor from Teridax though.
This design doesn’t completely fix the mobility, but I’m very happy with it. I was going to get all four remaining Hagah built but there’s not that much time before Artakha is done. Hopefully I’ve made an interesting enough case for differing bodytypes, but if not I hope you all just enjoy the Mocs! I hope you have a great day.
Below I’ll post the Dearth of extra positions and internals. The designs not too complex in bone structure; It’s metru hips with 2015 Gearbox.
(I’ve got all of two shields and seemingly zero Rhotuka launchers, so I’m fibbing a few.)
BTW, Sorry if this post looks awful. I’m fairly novice at forum work, and have mostly just been drawn in for the contest.
