Did this work?
After a whole lot of struggling, I managed to get this picture off my phone from about 3 years ago.
I remade Skull Scorpio from the original set, plus both G2 Pohatus, Ketar, the Protector of Stone, and Umarak the Destroyer.
Alternate view with a better view of the torso:
Every joint in the tail is a double or triple joint (even the blade joints):

I found some more unposted old combination models while looking through archived files.
This first one I think combines 30253 The Joker Battle Training and 70362 Battle Suit Clay , just a Jokerised version of the set really.
The second combines 8573 Nuhvok Kal , 8577 Pahrak Kal and 8574 Tahnok Kal , presumably as a sort of customised version of Bohrok Kal Kaita Za . If I remember right, I’d just gotten Tahnok Kal off Bricklink at the time so was playing with the pieces.
Here’s an image too of an apparently customised Ultimate Dume next to New Horizons II for some reason.

Here’s a combo of all 6 voyatoran. I might try to find a way to put some masks on the shoulders one day (and maybe make the feet a different color), but I don’t feel like doing it now. It was kind of a hassle to get all of the voyatorans’ pieces in a group.
Also, as with any future Combo Models I make, it’s intended to look llike something that Lego could’ve released
Here’s my made up in-story explanation for it:
This is a Voya Nui Resistence drone. They were invented by Velika, and are comprised of the bodies of the matoran who were killed by the Piraka.

I wondered what an 2001 phantoka/mistika kaita would be, so I built this. Apologies for the poor photo.

Here are some combo models I recently made, and one I posted a while ago:
Scissor Mantis (Matau Metru + Matau Hordika):
The Scissor Mantis is an imposing insect rahi, a distant relative of the Metru Mantis. Bipedal, it stands about a head taller than most toa. Hunting by stealth and ambush, it uses its two giant pincers to seize prey. Highly intelligent and vicious, they are known to target matoran and even other mantis.

[20210331_193543]
Each member of the species possesses a natural rhotuka launcher, positioned on their backs. They can launch spinners that slow down prey. The effectiveness of the rhotuka increases with age, the attack from a mature mantis may be so severe the target is left completely immobile.

Solitary and aggressive creatures they mostly live among the tangled chute networks of Le-Metru, using the confusing urban environment to their advantage…
FireFlyer (Vakama Metru + Vakama Hordika + Visorak Vohtarak):
Dark Hunter, codename: Fireflyer.
[20210331_194345]
[20210331_195317]
Description:
Agile and fiery, Fireflyer is equipped with twin rotors for aeriel combat, aided also by jets at his waist for quick mid-air adjustments. He wields two swords, lined with tiny serrations, used to rip through his opponents armor.
[20210331_195134]
Story:
Proud and boastful, he often taunts his enemies, flying near for fake-out attacks, yet also flying just out of reach. Having abandoned his home colony, who he felt did not appreciate his talents, he joined the Dark Hunters to exercise his fighting abilities. He seeks the recognition and approval of the ranks. The Shadowed One sees him as useful in stoking healthy competition among the hunters.

Zyglak Toa Mata Combiner (Tahu + Gali + Kopaka + Onua):
“Although they were allowed to live in the Matoran universe, they had no role to play, no place to call home, and no reason for being. Over time, they grew bitter and hostile and became a danger to all who lived.”
— Makuta Teridax, Makuta’s Guide to the Universe
There have been rumors of large creatures on the outskirts of Mata Nui, in the southern archipelagos of Le-Wahi and eastern islands of Ga-Wahi. A few mysterious disappearances over the years have made the matoran wary of straying too far from their respective Koros. Some Le matoran have reported seeing large tracks in the jungle, left by apparently bipedal creatures. Large swaths of the underbrush have been cleared out along with the tracks, with a lingering scent like rotting fish. Matoran on night watch have heard eerie calls a…

How did I miss that Zyglak when you first posted it? This is glorious.
The head shape is awesome, and there are plenty of features brought over form the original model. Great job.

Where do you start with the combo model?

Do you mean how I get my ideas? or do you mean something else.
If the first, I kind of just picked a few sets I had, disassembled them, and tried to find interesting part combinations. Like the Mantis I saw the blade pieces and noticed a claw shape I could use, emulating an insect. For the Fireflyer, I was trying shaping with the orange V on the torso. I had built those two around the same time so they are pretty similar. For the Zyglak it was a combination of the colors and the head shape that made me see a similarity to the original combiner, and then try an execute that with the parts I had. Hopefully that answers your question.

I suppose I should add this:
it should be noted that one of the tan 90 degree connectors should be black (one from Pohatu got mixed in somehow)

I recently picked up 2 of the Ninjago polybag 30591 Titanium Mini Mech and built this guy out of the pieces. He kinda looks like a mix of Matoro Mahri and Pohatu Phantoka.

Gonna drop this lad here. This one uses lehvak, lehvak va, and lehvak kal.
So I was lookin at those japanese bohrok combiners and the fact that someone looked at those ball lads and said imma make it into an anime robot inspired me.
And thus I made this lad using all three lehvaks (regular, va and kal).

It’s a combo of the lehvaks but really you could make it from any 2 bohrok and a va. If anyone wants to build one using different bohrok then go right ahead, I’d love to see how they turn out.

This build was inspired by this official combo model:

I looked at this combo and said to myself “what if I used all three bohrok variants instead of just the two regulars?”
