Just me or are the summer 2016 sets absolutely disgusting?
>>
>>5425907
Eh they look pretty bad at first, though I personally like Ekimu and Storm Beast quite a bit, how it generally works with these things is that they end up looking awful in prelims but once we get the actual sets in hand they are fine (Hell I ended up liking skull scorpio last year), so we will see. I would say that these prelims definitely dont look as bad as the skull villain prelims did.
>>

As long as you think the current UtD is disgusting, then you're fine in my books.

This. I'm fairly certain Ekimu's transblue is supposed to be dual injected with gold and the HF Torso on Storm Beast may be a placeholder.

Lava Beast is a cool dragon. He looks dumb because Lego decided to pose him to display functionality rather than to look cool. But he has neat looking sword-wings and I can forgive the lower legs. Probably my favourite along with Quake Beast.

Storm Beast will be the function over form set of the wave and might be cool because of it, but as of now he can go suck dick.

Gantigar is fucking amazing.
Oh man.
T-Rex Kulta with a thigh bone instead of a neck is the greatest idea I've ever heard, and those blue arms are the cherry on top.
>>
>>5425964
What's really gonna make or break these sets for me is how the head works, I can see a bunch of shit behind the head piece and really hope there isnt some weird function that locks the jaw in an open position, because I think the new upper jaw piece at least looks really cool and if the lower jaw can close over that and also look good I will be quite happy.

I really like the thin look of storm beast with the big claws, some people have complained that they are foot pieces but I feel like that doesnt really matter to me (hell maybe you could pose storm beast as a quadruped if you REALLY wanted to)

Quake beast looks fine, I just have never been a big fan of the bulky sets, I have to wonder if his right arm is some giant hulking purple crystal arm or if its just the angle of the picture.

Wait really it's using the feet? Oh god, that's terrible.

Another poor choice are the 2 joints to UtD's feet, having them move perpendicular to each othe means he literally won't be able to move his feet.

I do want to reuse pieces from the Beasts, the Creatures and other sets to make a small group of elemental monsters, but they won't work for Umarak.

In my canon, Umarak is The Shadowed One, and said monsters work for themselves, for they are [toyspoiler]the Element Lords.[toyspoiler]. Difference being that they're in the Mataverse because my canon skips Bara Magna altogether.

I had a clear view of all 6 of them, except the Lord of Air, and I realized that making him/her into a creature similar to Quetzalcoatl instead of some generic bird monster would be great.

I actually built UtD's lower legs and honestly they don't look too bad from a design standpoint, but are awful from a poseability standpoint, the feet can hardly move back or forward at all (the knee is actually as far forward as it possibly can be in this image, and the technic beams tend to pull apart constantly so I'm not sure how this made it past Lego quality control.

naw i'm still guessing they will never be connected, just like the two halves of the mask are in separate universes.
We'll see the new mask of time (the top half of the mask) but we probably won't see the full mask (both pieces connected)
but it would make sense to have the pieces connect considering they've decided that the new one is the top half, and the old one is the bottom

>>5426394
I've tried washes with various things... water, Pledge with Future, rubbing alcohol... I haven't tried an alcohol wash in resin, but water doesn't work (makes the resin bubble up like hell) and Future doesn't work (doesn't mix). So far the only thing available to me that actually does work is oil paint.

I have seen some experiments people have done with other things, and imitation stained glass paint looks like it's the best option. But I can't find any of that shit in retail stores around me, so I'll have to order it from Dick Blick or some place next time I can buy some stuff.

I'm pretty excited to see where they'll be going with this. Also, the second chapter book mentions reliefs older than even the mask makers that show the temple of time, the elemental creatures, and "unfamiliar writing". Leaving the implications of that last point aside, we already know that the creatures play an important role in the creation of Okoto, so it stands to reason that the temple and mask of time are somehow involved as well.

So, would Kylo Ren be worth it if I picked up a half price Darth Vader too?

I was thinking of just grabbing a Vader and Brickling the head/torso for Kylo, but that is $8-9 without shipping, and I'd think at that point it'd be better to buy the full Kylo and just use the rest for parts.

If the world ended up operating on "dream logic," then the lack of names from the first couple of waves gets wrapped up in a nice little bow.
When you encounter people or creatures in your dreams, do you remember (or even find out) what their names were? No, but you sure as hell remember their attributes and describe them in those terms.

Green dude who defends a jungle-dwelling tribe? Protector of Jungle.
Giant skeletal smashy guy? Skull Basher.
Giant hunter guy with shadow powers? Shadow Hunter the Hunter.

And as dream it stays. They have trashed most of the old molds.

But I really hope that when the Mask of Time becomes essential for the plot they make the toa nostalgia powerhouses, basically updated and CCBS version of their 2001 ones with changes to correspond with their G2 forms more. (Onua having trans purple instead of green for example).

Even if that is the case, there is no denying it attaches to the foot in that image via one of those elbow/knee joint bones, which is extremely limiting in one direction either way. I want to believe its different, but I just don't know yet.

Thanks, hopefully UtD turns out surprising us for the better. I feel like his torso looks odd just because its leaned over so far making it look squat, and the lack of chest printing/stickers (which final will likely have) make it look rather bear.

The head might be good but the choices for the boxart there (bland eye glow with head tilted, mouth agape, and possible everything slightly enlarged) makes it look rather comical when it may look more threatening in person.

That just leaves the legs, which are hopefully some kind of error since clearly the design as they appear on the box does not work at all.

Lava, Storm, and Quake beast use the same upper jaw mold in different colors (gunmetal, Blue, and Purple respectively), Umarak has his own upper jaw piece which is just the mask of control turned into a beastly shape.

They all share a lower jaw.

So Storm Beast and Quake Beast have a different leg construction to Lava Beast. I can't tell if QBs is slightly different to SBs or not so I did a mockup of both potential designs.

Look closer
I think Quake Beast might be using Hordika necks instead of Glatorian necks in his legs.

or there may be a one half version, and a full version, or just a full version, or a totally new design that uses elements of the vahi design

Anyone else actually like the silver blends on the masks? I really like it along with the trans colors on the gold ones, it really hammers in the concept that the masks aren't complete on their own, design-wise, even if they detract from the aesthetics a little bit.

Lewa, Pohatu, Gali, and Kopaka are all covered in silver so it actually works, and it works on Onua because, like black, isn't really a color. Tahu's covered in gold though, so it sticks out like a sore thumb.

For similar reasons, I don't understand why everyone was bitching about the silver "clashing". If anything, the gold masks clash WAY more because only half the toa are actually gold themed.

>>5427518
The way the bohrok eye interacts with the upper leg shell should work the same as it did on Umarak and they interface completely fine for him, you may have some limitation in getting the leg COMPLETELY straight but the lower leg design clearly is going for a more bent, digitigrade stance, and given the general look of quake beast combined with that, there will never really be much of a reason you need him standing perfectly straight.

>>5426851
I thought that only the shitty moulds like the ones containing out-of-date sockets were scrapped once the Glatorian armour was rereleased. Not entirely related, but I'm really glad that the new masks are made off hard plastic unlike the softer ones from 2003 onwards. They used to get damaged very easily, which was a pain as I buy a lot of second-hand Bonkles.

Same here anon. For some reason, the parts that clip onto the ball joints will crack and eventually break over time. It happens to me a few times, but perhaps the best thing to do is just go on ebay and by bins of parts for replacement.

experiment with more parts to adjust the shape and thickness of the torso, and give the poor unbalanced theropod a longer tail.
perhaps replace his eyes with a backwards pointing glatorian neck, that you can give him a more dinosaur-like neck thickness.
>>
>>5428716
Yes good.

I can't help feeling that whatever you do though, you will just be making dinosaur Kulta

Wasn't even that, it was where you put the axle at the opposite side of the socket.

That's pretty good.

I feel like the color scheme back there might look more consistent if you use the two trans-orange shells from LoSS rather than the black ones.

So with Makuta not being the whole Shadow element thing this gen, I guess Umarak is the one filling that role in G2? All of his powers are shadow-related (except firing poison arrows I guess), and his name means Shadow Hunter.

glatorian necks are what LOSS uses to connect his feet to his legs, and what your kulta-rex uses to do the same, they're the short structural piece that have the ball joint sticking out the end. In retrospect though, I don't believe the piece will fit where I suggested you put it, so disregard. Still, longer tail, thicker body. Consider hiving him a more bestial hunch by filling out his back with some of the trans orange structural pieces from LOSS currently not in use. Additionally, I'd recommend reversing the position of the torso skeletal piece, for a more theropodal build, by having the hips wider apart than the shoulders.

Hello /biog/. I did a little bit of heresy just to see if this worked. From left to right: A standard G1 hand piece, a hand piece with a broken axle hole and the solution to the Uniters' shitty knees. It still needs a bit of cleaning up.

Aight, so:
I know you feel the urge to stagger the types of ccbs limbs in the tail, but I recommend you avoid doing so and keep the longer ones near the base and the shorter ones without shells near the tip, dinosaur tails get thinner the farther along they are, even in cases of weaponized tails.

Angle the arms so that the upper arms are perpendicular with the body, but the forearms are parallel with it, and have the hands pointing down.

Replace the armor on the upper legs with chest armor plates, probably black like the one you are using for his back, replace his back plate with the trans orange ribcage of kulta that you are using for his chest, replace the chest armor with a thinner armor piece, and if you can, try to expand the torso vertically with smaller pieces rather than horizontally as might be implied by one saying "make it thicker".

With all thses mods, you might have yourself a decent looking kulta-rex

I myself use a pair of toenail clippers for the more precise stuff. A clean pair obviously. Don't use the same ones you use to cut your toes, that's fucken gross. And a small pair of wire cutters for the bulkier stuff.

Though as far as I can tell you've done a better job than what I usually do, so what do I know? My heresy hands are all pretty dodgy.
>>
>>5429162
Thanks. I'll grab a nail file from somewhere. The clipper sounds like a good idea. I think I once used a small pair of wire cutters to trim down a System flagpole piece with a chewed-up stud.
>>
>>5426798
oh yeah? fuck off
>>
>>5426798
The mata are iconic as hell, but yeah their builds are kinda meh and most of all their pose-ability is terrible (even ignoring the lack of knee, elbow, and hand articulation, they cant spread their arms apart from their bodies very far and their legs cant go forward and back very far at all either)

Rahi were really cool, wish they would have release more big technic monsters like them but with ball joints for some actual pose-ability.
>>
>>5429154
They're pretty impressive at first glance, sure, but the sheer amount of pieces being used undermines the 'talent' angle.

Actual talent would be building something grand and impressive with a limited number of pieces, or at least not ordering half of bricklink for each MOC.

I still don't understand why the hell Lego actually went out of their way to give Gali classic black 2m axles instead of the bright red ones they've had since 2006, but then neglected to do it for any of the other Toa who really suffer for them (Kopaka, Lewa, and Pohatu), why make a change like that if you're not going to follow through?

Because Lego knows that we'll all buy Gali just to throw some Jango tits on her. Rather than listen to the complaints of a hundred neckbeards, they gave us what we wanted.

You're realling coming along with that thing, I'm impressed. Though is it just me, or have you stopped using pieces from just LoSS and Kulta (I see 6 long black bones on that whereas the sets only have 4 total), if you have broken said rule I would definitely add trans-orange toes to the feet and the black spike pieces along the spine, but either way this has come along really nice.

Thanks for the kind words anon. I stopped being strictly LoSS + MMvSG when I changed the tail from trans blue to black. I'm still trying to keep it to just those pieces as much as possible. Mind you, I only have g2 sets.

You opted out of using torso plates for the leg armor? They were suggested to give it the large thigh shape theropods are usually depicted having, and would fill out his rear a bit more. Things I never thought I'd say. If you wish not to do that, maybe move the shoulder armor addons onto his leg armor, for the same effect. I would also suggest posing him more parallel with the ground, and posing his neck so that his eye stalk/brain is nearly touching his neck.
experiment with some other poses, and maybe post some more forward facing pics.
>>
>>5429331
I only have one black chest armor piece so your alternative will have to do. Also I don't have enough black spikes, are white ones ok?

Because the original Mata have kickass designs, but they're static as fuck. I could MOC more articulated renditions, but then the accuracy of the original parts isn't preserved. I just want super posable high quality action figures that look exactly like the originals, but have actual joints and pistons in place of the solidly molded fake details. Die-cast in the feet and jointwork would just be the cherry on top.

This is coming from a spoiled high-end toy collector who also collects bonkles as action figures, and not for their MOCing potential.

Toss head for something long and Zyglak-like. That would look awesome, the Kulta head looks off on that velociraptor body.

>>
>>5429361
>>5429365
guy with the walls of text here, the spikes are actually a surprising nice touch.
you have yourself a pretty fine looking dinosaur with a dopey skull face now. How do you feel.

As an aside, I'd recommend experimenting with masks other than kulta's, but if the plan was "dinosaur kulta" feel free to stop now, you succeeded.
>>
>>5429365
That actually looks REALLY cool. I've been meaning to say since you started posting that I really like what you've done with the claws. Using them gears like that is pretty clever.

I have to agree with >>5429368 though. The humanoid skeleton face looks a little out of place now. Unless uncanny valley is what you're going for.
>>
>>5429365
Is the bottom half of the tail attached to the top section in any way? If not, it seems kind of flimsy around there. Maybe try experimenting in connecting the two halves more.

Also, there's quite a few exposed balljoints in the torso and I'd attempt finding a way to cover or tidy those up.
>>
>>5429369
I wanted to make a custom torso, but due to my severe lack of parts, the result was BA Stormer.

>>5429368
I don't have any g1 parts. Do you know any g2 parts that would make for a better head?

Thanks again for all your help.

>>5429379
Thanks, but I totally stole that gear claw idea from another MOC. I hope the original guy doesn't mind. :/
>>
>>5429394
Yes the tail is flimsy as fuck, I have no idea how to connect the top and bottom parts. I also have no clue on what to put on those empty ball joints without adding unnecessary bulk. Any ideas?

so I blew about $65 on the 2016 Pohatu and Lewa, plus their and Onua's creatures.

how much am I going to need to fix? because Gali needed longer limbs. are the other two going to be just as bad? or worse?
>>
>>5429430
Gali is the worst set of the wave, Onua really doesnt require any fixes at all, Pohatu is more or less perfect from a build standpoint and only has issues with color scheme so swap out shells if need be, Lewa has a nice consistent color scheme but short upper arms you might need to find a fix for.
>>
>>5429430
Onua and Terak are pretty much perfect.
Can't say same about the rest.

The gray one had a knee/elbow ball bone, that type of joint connection isn't as easy to pose as the one used on his other arm (which makes posing very easy, albeit unrealistic), but it is a lot stronger and better able to hold a pose, they put it the arm that has to be near the beefy end up his weapon to support the weight, and then in order to make posing not a complete nightmare, gave him the other type of connection for his other arm.

This is honestly fine, but I think they should have swapped that gray bone out for a purple one from Korgot / Onua 2015 so that it didnt look as out of place.

I'm still annoyed that I lost one of Korgot's studs while trying to pose her. When I was building Ekimu today, I heard a stud fly past my ear. While I could replace Ekimu's studs if they got lost, my Korgot didn't come with spare studs.

Heresy, I must admit. Couldn't quite tell how you did it, so I found this weird lego rod. It didn't have a peg end or plus end or anything, it was just a smooth rod. I cut it into 4 smaller pieces, all of which fit perfectly into the holes in the armor piece already attached to the leg, then the other end fit into the gray pegs you see showing in the holes of the armor add on. Wouldn't have been heresy if I had that size of rod to begin with.

So, anon,what'd you learn in this process? You went from something that was panned as terrible into something that now receives little other than praise. I believe there are two other guys that frequent here who are new to moccing, what have you taken from this 27 hour journey that could be of use to them?

Looks freakin' sweet, dude. Seeing a cool MOC on the internet is one thing, but watching genuine step-by-step improvement in real time is something else. You did good.

Glad you didn't fuck off forever and kill yourself after that first guy put you down, mate.

What I learned:
What looks good to you might be objectively awful. If you have to use your imagination instead of it being instantly recognizable then its probably not good. Look at other MOCs and see what parts work and customize them for your own needs. Be polite when asking for help, and try to ask specific questions. Many of the problems you come into when trying to make something can be solved with persistence. Parts you find hardest will be most rewarding when you solve them.

Also, if someone says what you did is the best thing ever, and they post a laughing gif with it, don't take them seriously or else you out yourself as literally autistic.

Thanks, I'm glad I stuck it out. I'm happy I was able to get as much help as I did.

Nice dude. I feel like this was a nice thing, for once seeing the process of MOCing. It was very patchy at first, but now I think it looks great.

I'm glad to have been among the helpers, you really turned that guys around into something pretty rad. What moc do you think you'll be working on next?

Thanks again. For my next MOC I'll try to build a rider for my raptor. Skull Scorpio-Man gets to hop on until then.
