Here is probably now my favorite creation to date(and also the only one that came to me right away), a giant mantis~ having the insect collection mantis practically on hand really helped a bit to really get that "mantis look" down. Heres a closeup and a side view, isn't it cute?
I spent an entire day looking through my collection of parts for a second grey ball joint before finally giving up and cracking open the silver ones but it actually stands out much more beautifully than i imagined..
Its actually quite a huge moc, and you can see this VERY clearly when compared to toa like the last one i showed off here, my pretty mermaid, and poor onua being absolutely dwarfed by the buggy beast
While shooting photos i actually realized that you can actually store a mask in each of its arms, making for honestly quite the gruesome scene..
Id say this big baby took me roughly a day or two to complete, completely on a whim while i was in the middle of another project i might not even finish now, i hope you enjoyed my crafts
In a bit of a creative frenzy now related to bionicle. The only way i can really say i feel right now is i am a star at the end of her own life finally burning up all her energy in a massive, wonderful explosion.
Though, at the same time being able to create so much suddenly has granted me a bit of confidence to really like. Talk about my hobby more with people id normally brush off as 'not caring/if i tell them about this theyre just gonna think im stupid'. If only it didnt take this long to feel that way..
I will have something to show off in the coming hours when i reawaken
Made some tweaks, filled out some gaps, added tubes, changed her trident as well as making her able to sit on it and also built a little stand for her. Very proud of this so far especially considering i havent made a new moc in like 2 years
Behold, my newest moc. I guess id kinda also consider her something of a selfmoc too but not sure, anyways last night i spent like 9 hours fucking about in the lego bin until 6 in the morning and came about with this thing after finishing up a different build. They shouldve totally done a mermaid for the toa mahri honestly that wouldve been sick
And heres one with her being held up by one of my much larger mocs, which i have named behemoth
Kinda shocked theyre able to stand like that but i guess its a testament to how i built him 3 years ago

i gotta say every bionicle moc i see loses me the minute it becomes apparent most of the build hinges on those ball joints with holes. like the build is still cool as hell its just then i think about how much of a pain in the ass it is to really like even move the figure around because they just fall out so, so often. of course i am at fault for this too by having a most precarious usage of that being the core of the torso in one of my own mocs but thats a core part of his design, being able to split apart. i have pictures coming up whenever i remember to take them of new builds i made
