Pohatu Okoto and Tahnok Bohrok

[B2Nine]

Protector sized G2 Pohatu and a G2-ish Tahnok Bohrok. I wanted to emulate the smaller scale of the 2001 sets but with G2. Ultimately, they became a mix of Bionicle, Technic, CCBS, and a bit of system.

Pohatu is a bit of a blend of his G1 and G2 sets. I tried to add elements from each, such as the hunched over posture and bulky armored feet of his Mata set but with his G2 color scheme and arm spikes. The Metru chest cover was also inspired by 0nuku’s excellent Nilkuu Revamp (over on Flickr).

I’m pretty happy with how he turned out. Simple and clean.

Tahnok mostly relies on its Bionicle pieces to make the head, but the structure is custom and based on LoganMcOwen’s brilliant REBOOT: Tahnok, Fire Burrower, so it also still has its head striking function.

No Krana but it can fit one. However, I chose to just add a sort-of brain stalk instead, since the Krana masks are not compatible with G2 heads.

It can also roll-up into a ball, which is mostly for aesthetics but it can technically roll.

I wanted to keep the builds small, simple, and for them to share a design language. Ultimately, I’m really happy with how they turned out.

Let me know what you guys think and have an excellent day.

I think you did a great job with Pohatu, the shaping and color blocking is excellent and I like the big toes you built in place of his G1 steeltoes. I also think the Tahnok is well built, I’m impressed with the head function but mostly by the fact that such a stumpy little guy can still make a clean ball

I love the proportions on these guys they’re perfect

How does the Bohrok fit, and yet it doesn’t at the same time.
Awesome conversion overall.
Curious: does the Krana-hood attachment hold well with the bashing function (also neat)?

I like how you did Pohatu’s armoured feet.

It’s also impressive that the Bohrok rolls up as well as it does, considering that none of the pieces were made for it.

I decided to do some small touch ups to add more burnt orange. I also gave him some fingers akin to his Mata set.

The feet are a little big for his size but I like how bulky they look. It’s an awkward fit but I think it works.

The MOCs look so cool. I really like the Tahnok Bohrok you revamped.

The Bohrok is super clean!
