The Kingdom Toa MOCs

“His destiny achieved, Takanuva had sacrificed his power to bring a new generation of Toa into being. These included Toa Kapura, Toa Balta, Toa Dalu, Toa Velika, Toa Defilak, and a new Toa of Light,Tanma”

About a year a go, I purchased a mask that I liked from DriftingFarandWide from Etsy and made a MOC with it using a custom torso. Looking at the color scheme (copper and silver), I was thinking he kind of looked like a Toa and Light and the only other Toa of Light that was mentioned in the story was Tanma in the Kingdom Universe and I thought it would be cool to build the team using custom masks I would think it’s possible that they could’ve received brand new masks and color scheme when becoming Toa, we’ve seen characters change masks of colors in the story before (McToran to Inika for example). So I went and got 5 other masks from DriftingFarand Wide that could be used for the rest of the team and started working on them. For each of them I wanted to give them weapons that looked like they came from the weapons they had as Matoran. All masks of and light up eye stalks are from DriftingFarnadWide on etsy and they all look amazing.

This is a really exciting batch of characters. Their wild colors and overall cohesion really sell them as a Toa team. I could honestly see them as a line of canister sets.

However I’m not seeing a ton of resemblance to the original characters in some of these. Most of it’s probably the masks. Not a huge deal though since most Bionicle characters change drastically.

Thanks I was going for some cool color schemes after I decided to get the mask.

And yes I know there isn’t much semblance to the matoran forms but I tried to incorporate their weapons some how. Kapura was the only one who’s weapon is something new as he was never shown with a weapon

Ooh these mocs look pretty cool. Even though they look quite a bit different from what I originally imagined the Kingdom Toa to look like these are still really good. Nice job

Yep I was thinking we never expected the mctoran to look like they did as the toa inika, the turaga to look like they did as Toa metru, and the toa nuva to look like they did after getting the adaptive armor. I just figured it’s not unusual if a characters appearance and color schemes change so much

Some of the torso shaping is weird- but these are pretty cool. Nice mocs.

The color schemes for Dalu and Velika are really neat.

How are the torsos constructed? I’d like to use that design myself!

I could show break downs of each of them at some point when I get the time
