Introduction
Summary
It’s better I enter this contest late than never at all. I’ve never entered a canon contest until now and I thought why not try?
I’ve had these MOC’s finished for a couple of weeks since the contest started and have honestly not looked at anyone’s submissions. This is mostly for me to work on my vision and not attempt to copy someone else’s work. With that said, let me move to my mindset for designing my Toa Hagah.
Mindset/Design Decisions
Summary
When designing these other four Toa Hagah, I restricted myself to what was available at the time when Toa Iruini and Norik were released. They didn’t really incorporate any Hordika specific body parts, so I excluded those from my parts pool. I wanted to build the Toa Hagah as if they could’ve realistically released alongside the other two had they been manufactured. With that in mind, they might not be the most complex or wild compared to others. However, I wanted to present them as believable sets.
Group Photos - The following photos are of my four remaining Hagah (group shots and solo photos), as well as Toa Iruini being used as a measurement of their overall height.
Breakdown
All of my Toa Hagah use either the Iruini or Norik main body build. The only different are the legs use to differ their height.
Toa Gaaki
Toa Pouks
Toa Bomonga
Toa Kualus

Consent To Change Stuff
Summary
I give consent for my mask to be altered in the final group art if the artist chooses: NO
I give consent for my metallic color choice to be altered in the final group art if the artist chooses: NO
I give consent for my spear tip to be altered in the final group art if the artist chooses: NO unless to shorten Gaaki’s spear tip because it’s a little longer than Norik’s spear tip.
Hope you all enjoy them!
