Quiet a while ago I made some MOCs of what I thought the Chronicler’s company would look like as Toa. I thought it’d be nice to share some pics of them here.
I know brown and black tend to clash. But I wanted to somewhat keep Hafu’s original color scheme, I didn’t have too many tan pieces. Thought the color scheme is not the best, I was very happy with the results. I was able to give him a great Ruru as a hat tip to his original Ruru, and I thought the stone piece on his chest looked neat.
Kapura is probably one of these MOCs that I’m most proud of. I managed to use pieces in a variety of different ways and the end result seemed to fit together very well together. I also was able to use a red Pakari like original Kapura. Making him more identifiable.
I’d honestly categorize this MOC as a fail. The bulky look I was going for just ended up looking disproportionate and very much like mistoka Onua. However, I was able to keep the Kanohi consistent again.
Looking back it’s strange how much he looks like the new Kopaka now. Not a very exciting MOC, some of the interesting things I tried failed. But I think it looks nice-ish still. Again I was happy for him to have the same Kanohi.
I am very happy with how he turned out. I used a Metru torso for the lower half of his body and it actually turned out really well! His weapon looks nice too, IMO. Much like something a Toa of air would use. Sady, I was not able to keep consistent with his Kanohi.
I really like this idea of recreating some old Bionicle Matoran and making them Toa. I’d say you did pretty good although I don’t really like the chest pieces Taipu has as armour for his arms. Kopeke I really like but he looks a little simple. Kapura is pretty sweet. I love to see orange and red clash, it’s such a great colour scheme. By the way Kapura’s weapons are genius. Hafu honestly is pretty interesting. I love his weapon and although the colour scheme is weird he still feels natural and not completely different. Tamaru has got to be my favourite. Just the way you put his armour and his weapon which looks sick give him a sort of leader feel. I don’t know, I’m crazy. Macku from what I can see looks a little like Kopeke although she has the larger chest piece. Anyway, yeah, overall pretty nice team although some of them could use a little work. Keep mocin’.
Yeah like I said Taipu was kind of a fail. Had I had more motivation at the time I would have fixed him and Hali up, and made Kopeke a bit more interesting. Sadly I don’t have the chance now since parts from these guys are now being used for other MOCs.
