"Toa" Destrucus (Destro) V0.9

Reimagining of my previous Self-Moc (kinda still is), harbouring to his original form/s with the sleekness and the inclusion of purple. He’s basically almost done, with the exception of silver Vorox armour parts of which I still have yet to get. Onto the Moc!
Note: the upper body may seem to be larger than the lower half, but that was due to unintentionally taking the pictures at a higher angle, also, he ain’t technically a ‘Toa’ but he looks like one so yea.

Now for some close-ups


Lower legs. Basically it’s entirety was inspired by @Chro 's Toa Paxiad lower leg design. Works well here IMO.

Upper legs. Outside of the different shade of purple on the shell, I’m happy with it. The thin, sleekness fits well with his original concept.

Chest. His very first form was a Metru body, with the Bohrok Kal shield piece on the chest. Translated that here.

The head. It was also on the original form as well. Simple but I like it.

Upper arm. Basically stole Vulons entire arm desgin outside of the colour and other bits and pieces

Lower arm. Need that silver Vorox piece man.

Back shot of lower leg. Meh Technic.

Meh more Technic.

Back shot. Here you see what’s also most different about the arms. Meh. Now for some poses (that I suck at posing :smile: ) Trust me, he can do more stuff, but I’m not in the mood to do it.



Now his weapon.

His ‘Kolhii’ Scythe!

Story wise, it’s not really a Kohlii Scythe, but it has similar abilities to it of which I do not feel like explaining.


Looks really cool when posing.

Laziness is laziness.

Like dis one.

How the weapon attaches. Explaining more into the idea of this guy, I wanted to create whim to make him more reminiscent of his original, unseen forms with the thin build and purple. I was also going to make another alternate universe counterpart that resembles his later, black and silver larger forms representing him as a big bad, but so far…

Yea…

Final pic thing. Hope you enjoyed or somethin

Dang, those custom limbs look pretty great. Though something seems slightly off about the figure’s whole aesthetic… I can’t quite put my finger on it. I might be the abundance of different textures.

Also, the two different shades of purple clash. But I do love that head! :smiley:

It’s cool. But it feels like the toa version of the Shadowed One. Which I think it’s a plus.

That, back in 05’ was the original design of him :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: (And yes, he had remained nameless until 2013)

Thanks. Weirdly(If it’s considered so) I like the Jango Fett purple on him more than the CCBS purple, if only that was the shade of the shells :smiley:

Hello Adamus! Please give this topic a read. :slight_smile:

Vorox armor would look better flipped around.

But…that’s really it…this guy is really nice otherwise!

I love the armor layering on the legs with the 2015 pistons, the Inika pistons, and the pistons pistons!! :stuck_out_tongue:

Head is unique and cool looking.

Purple and silver is very nice.

Really like him!

Yes, like that. I mean, that’s just my preference, if you don’t like it you don’t have to do it! :wink:

Yea, IMO it looks better the other way, so I changed it back :smile: also, as soon as I get any of the new sets with 2 silver Vorox armour pieces, it will look amazing
@Diamondking Thanks. I think the hands look fine as they are and yeah, if he did have proper ones, he couldn’t do a lot with his Scythe. And the legs are good, though I like the torso most :smile:

This is a great MOC, might be better with proper hands IMO, but that might hinder the weapon (which I love BTW).
As others have said, that leg design is astounding, well done :slight_smile:

Those legs are great. Unlike legomaster, I like both shades of purple, and I don’t see too much clashing with them.

Great MOC, my biggest criticism is that the arms are a little short.

I’m really liking this MOC. From the well-built custom limbs to the awesome head design, it’s pretty darn good.
I feel like the purple shells on his lower arms and upper legs should be a different color, as there isn’t any noticeable purple on the rest of the MOC.

Overall a really awesome MOC, great job! :thumbsup:

Jango’s shade of purple is indeed pretty neat. Unfortunately, as I said, it sticks out a lot.

Besides the edgy name and the shades of purple, this moc looks freakin awesome! I love the head design, it sorta evokes a shadowed one look

Thanks. The name was literally thought up in 2013 with his first posted form on mocpages. Still want the ‘Des’ in his name, so how bout Destro? :wink:
