Toa Gaaki (BIONICLE Canon Contest #3: Honor Guard)

And I repeat my point that my family has women with very similar body builds. Are they sexualized?

They do, and would the GB’s not make the Toa at least similar to themselves? At the very least, they would at least use themselves as templates for how to build a humanoid.

again people are not toa

No but what does humans being sexualized or not have to do with Biomechanical robot wizards?

No. Is that was constitutes a feminine body to you?

Glatorians do sexually reproduce, so could’ve reach sexualized shapes by natural evolution, and Toa are based on Glatorians, Great Beings might’ve made such shaping possible option

Indeed, that’s why Gaaki can have pixar mom butt.I don’t think anywhere in the lore it is stated that Gaaki wasn’t thicc, therefore she can be thicc.

there is also nowhere stated that she is thicc

also nowhere stated she can’t be pretty fat

My point is that the human body comes in many different shapes and sizes, and assuming that something is sexualized can lead down a very bad road of debates, especially since what is normal and is not is different to too many people.

I guess what I’m trying to get at here is don’t assume something is sexualized without some way to prove intent.

Artists base their work on the world around them after all.

Counter point don’t build mocs with features of humans, robots logically wouldn’t have

Perhaps, perhaps. I’m just of the mind that, like any other sapient, the GB’s would project what they see as standard for humanoids on their own creations.

Agree-to-disagree?

there is again such thing as decency and common sense and that if lego made sets of all 6 hagah in 05 there is no way they would make gaaki look remotely similar to this, as it goes against the lego groups brand values

Agree but we have no reference or precedent that the GBs have all our human features. We know they have some due to Kiina but beyond how Kiina looks we have no idea.

These are all fair points.

My issue is that the OP says “I made her look feminine by giving her a big butt”, implying that he equates the two, and apparently so do a lot of people.

The majority of people supporting this MOC aren’t doing because they think it’s realistic.

There’s no way to justify it canonically, because frankly, BIONICLE isn’t that well thought out

Anyways, I don’t even know why I took part in this conversation. Everything I want to say was said in my first couple posts.

This whole thing is grotesquely off topic and half of it’s going to be deleted, so I’m stepping out before I get more annoyed than I am and get a second warning this week.

That’s not an unfair critique, my sole counterpoint is that, as a moccist, about the only way to distinguish, especially with the restriction to the Metru Torso/waist, is that. Though that may be my own limitations speaking.

Fair enough, I apologize if I annoyed you.

but it didnt have to be distinguished at all in the first place, and probably shouldnt be

Matter of opinion there, but i’ll respect that.

really i feel like anything norik and iruni have similar should for the most part be similar to the other hagah within some minor deviation. this deviation isnt minor at all. either way eljay said ditch the nuva cheeks lol
