Toa Nidhiki, The Betrayer

[Kutorakh]

" You are so trusting, so convinced of the purity of Toa. I don’t think Nidhiki even trusts himself. Better keep an eye on him, Lhikan, he’ll come to no good. "
— Tuyet, The Many Deaths of Toa Tuyet

Hi guys! This is my interpretation of a version of Nidhiki!

About his coloring, I focused on the colors that appear in his DH set.

Despite it being stated that the Toa Nidhiki’s armor is 100% green, I ended up keeping armor with black and silver parts.

The reason? it’s just that I don’t really like painting original LEGO parts and I want to keep Gahlok’s bohrok shield on Nidhiki’s torso .

About the armor, I used the visorakh paws for two reasons: it adds an insectoid characteristic to the armor and its stripes match those of the bohrok shield, including the direction of the stripes.

About the Air Scythe, I based it on the original DH set and the movie. The idea of ​​the lower blade is that it was a small claw.

About the torso, I kept to the basic metru set but trying to fix the main problem which is the gap between the hips and the upper torso.

One thing I noticed when working on my own Nidhiki is that the large Piraka foot (which comes in Dark Green) has a very similar pattern to the Bohrok shield:

Of course, I ran into an issue where using this part made him look a bit chunky, but maybe you can figure something out that I couldn’t.

Using the ninjago spinner blades on the back of the scythe is

[Rhyla416]

ah cool, this looks great!

[Droconis]

I like the scythe’s details that you put into it.

[MakutaOisli]

I like the scythe, but the forearms are a bit sparse.

[Atobe_Brick]

The inika minifigure arms are a nice detail! Subtle but very effective

[Frogbomb518]

Now THAT is a scythe. Outstanding moc all around!

i tried to use this part once, but i had exactly this problem .

[WorldTraveller]

I dunno how, I dunno why, but it feels pretty legit to me, like if it was the OG set for Nidhiki !

[ToaKebaka]

The scythe is very well designed.

[Kutorakh]

hey guys, i made a small change to my nidhiki. (just the scythe to be exact )

I’m already subscribed to the duckbricks fanoncontest, when the voting links come out I’ll share them here

[Willess12]

That’s a pretty solid shythe design.

The red bits make it look like he has shards of the Nui Stone embedded in his armour. What if he did and just never realized it?
