Toa Crex, the Ionic Recluse

The first Toa of Plasma created by the Great Beings and brother of the first Toa. Intelligent and determined, Crex made several self-mods that let him oversee hostile lands near the Southern Continent. Although committed to duty, Crex rarely spoke to those he protected, earning him the reputation of an aloof guardian. With none to watch over him, a pair of Skakdi easily set up an ambush and imprisoned him. His fate afterwards proved indescribable, and Crex was never seen or heard from again.

Ooh this moc looks quite good. The custom mask works pretty well with the overall technical/mechanical theme and I like the color blocking.

Very nice. It’s rare to see Toa of plasma MOCs, especially ones with this much character.

The mask looks like a fusion of a Hau and Kaukau. Did you model it yourself?

Love the color layering and the texturing with the ribbed elements (tubes and older Technic/early Bionicle parts)! He looks great, definitely has good cohesion with the modified Helryx, and the lore bit at the end gives a lot of life to the character knowing the story tidbit being referenced.

Nope. It’s a 3D model made by CreativeMechanics. I only printed/painted it.
