Toa Tahu Spherus Magna form

This is my vision/revamp of Tahu, post Golden Armor, adapted to the environment of Spherus Magna. I was heavily inspired by his original form, obviously, but added a few subtle designs to help him fit in the desert ecosystem. Lots of tread grips were fitted into the liftarms to close gaps, and I added two little ‘hydration packs’ that his Adaptive Armor would have fitted him out with to aid him in the harsher climate.

He features the classic gear function, but like his G2 counterpart, is also very poseable. Yes, he features some CCBS, but I still think he looks like Tahu of G1, and is ready to take on the challenges facing the merged society he is leading. Plus, he needs to be ready: Marendar is coming.

As an FYI, I did try using a Mata head, but it looked worse than the Metru head and shortened brain-stalk.

Enjoy, and please leave any thoughts or critiques below!

This looks awesome! I love how similar it looks to the 2001 and 2010 sets while having its differences.

@Rukah Thanks a lot! I felt compelled to incorporate both ‘01 and ‘10 elements, and I think the right amount of both came together well. Thrilled you like it, and thank you for the nice feedback!

@Enbeanie Thank you! The build continuity was a bit tricky, so thanks for noticing.

Looks pretty nice overall. The one thing I’m not sure about is the Bohrok eye on the hilt of the sword. It doesn’t really look right.
