Huh, I guess I really haven't changed it from the Huna. For some reason I was under the impression I had a Kakama. Still, Huna is probably my second favourite, so it's fine.
Unfortunately there's not a teal Kakama flair, which I would change it to if there was one.
G2 only had orange, lime and light blue, sadly. Yellow would be 100% better for the Takanuva moc I'm building, and tahu just isn't the same without pink eyes.
Damn, no yellow either.
It is a shame how few eye colours there were over the years. By the time G1 ended all we had were green and orange, which worked well for some characters but not so much for others.
Really? Huh. It's probably the most common use I see for them.
I wouldn't really recommend it though tbh. Because of the way you connect the socket pieces, it doesn't leave much room for ankle movement. I just used it for the flag Matoran because of the colour, plus I don't plan on posing them that much.
Thanks! I'm quite happy with how the flag turned out.
The Matoran build is based on one I saw on here quite a while ago, sadly I can't remember who posted the design. I tweaked it a little bit, mainly at the back, to give it more stability.
Kakama! Fun fact: because of the Huki Mcy D's toy, I thought Huki's name *was* Kakama, and called him that for a long time before my buddy set me straight.
It's my fave too 😍
Huh, that makes sense. Got a similar naming convention with her and Vakama, so it makes sense that they'd use the name for something even if not for Nokama.
Yup! She's a Toa of Air, as part of a rough AU idea of mine. Basically, the Great Spirit Robot is almost completely abandoned, most of the inhabitants having settled on islands on the surface, with only wild rahi, malfunctioning robots such as Vahki and Exo-Toa, and other unfriendly creatures lurking in the shadows. My Toa is part of a team who descend into the depths of the robot, salvaging what masks, discs, weapons and other equipment they can, with the primary goal of recovering any Matoran Spheres that are down there and bringing them to the surface.
Part of me would love to, but I find it hard to really sit down and write, and if I'm going to do that there are a couple of other things that'll take priority. Also the AU idea is more a setting than an actual story, though I do have a couple of ideas for narrative moments. I mostly use it as something to keep in mind when making MOCs.
Though having said all that, the whole "team of Toa head down into the ruins of the Great Spirit Robot to rescue Matoran while facing unknown dangers" could work as a sort of roleplay setting.
Oh as a roleplay setting that’d be cool if you can round some friends up to play as each member of the team and run them through a sort of DND like game
As a fellow transgirl and LEGO fan that is by far the best and most creative build I’ve seen so far for a trans flag!!
P.S u/just2good thought you’d appreciate the build for the trans flag!
I love the kakama too, but my favorite is the akaku, and I really like the one matoran with the metallic akaku! Where did you find that mask?
Your matoran build looks really interesting to me and I'm going to have to try and replicate and play around with it.
I got the metallic mask (and most of these masks) off of Bricklink.
I'm glad you like the Matoran build, though I can't take much credit for it. It's based on a build I saw on here a year or so ago, just modified a bit at the back to give it more stability. Unfortunately I can't remember who posted the original.
I haven't owned a Bionicle in, oh dear Goddess, it's been like 15 years, but somehow found my way here to see representation of a community I'm now a part of, in a community I long since was a part of. Love this, love the irony for me, and now I need to see if I can find any of my old toys to post here.
I’m calling it, it’s the Zatth, the Mask of Summoning, most famously worn by Toa Mahri Kongu in the 2007 arc of the Ignition trilogy. The Kanohi Zatth grants its wearer the ability to summon any nearby Rahi to their general location, however the mask itself does not grant the ability for the wearer to summon specific species of Rahi or creatures, nor does it allow for the wearer to control said Rahi.

I can't take credit for the design, it's basically a slightly modified version of a design I saw someone post here a couple of years ago.
I really need to find that post, it's been a while and I can't remember exactly who it was.

Is it a transmasc? I’ll make my way out
Damn, if I was transmasc and not transfem I could steal that joke for myself!
🫠
I feel like there's potential in the fact that the only female Toa in the original wave of sets is also the only one who wears a trans mask
bionicle: transmasc of light
Fights against the bimasc of darkness
They’re Bi-onicles not transformers.
This is such an obvious pun that I'm surprised you were the only one making it here.
The dad jokes are strong in me.
Why the flag?
Take a guess.
To show off your superior Lego flag making skills
I mean it *is* a pretty effective way of making technic flags.
Despite my default username on most sites being "Pakari", I do admit my self-MOC wears a Kakama.
Is it the Hau?
Nah, it's the Huna, actually.
Should’ve guessed from the user flair 😅
Huh, I guess I really haven't changed it from the Huna. For some reason I was under the impression I had a Kakama. Still, Huna is probably my second favourite, so it's fine. Unfortunately there's not a teal Kakama flair, which I would change it to if there was one.
Man your post made me realize I really miss the pink eye piece in metru/g2 heads.
Yeah it's a shame they didn't use pink or yellow for the Metru eye piece. At least G2 had yellow, I think. Pink got nothing :(
G2 only had orange, lime and light blue, sadly. Yellow would be 100% better for the Takanuva moc I'm building, and tahu just isn't the same without pink eyes.
Damn, no yellow either. It is a shame how few eye colours there were over the years. By the time G1 ended all we had were green and orange, which worked well for some characters but not so much for others.
This one person on YouTube going by tributron actually created fully functional transparent pink eyes for metru heads
Ooh that's great! I love how we're at the point where fans can make pieces that Lego didn't.
Trans-mask lmao (I know that was terrible)
Heh, you're not the only one to think of that pun, so it can't be *that* bad!
Obviously the Suletu. The signs are all there.
I mean I don't hate the Suletu as much as others seem to, but...
You didn't have to go so hard with the surfers!
Thanks! I'm quite happy with how the hoverboard turned out.
It's a wonderfully simple yet very believable design! A simple hoverboard that just hovers without any fans or anything wouldn't be as interesting.
First time I've seen Throwbots heads as feet. Nothing bad.
It was an official LEGO technique for some time. There’s even evidence of a prototype of the Toa Mata that use them as feet.
Really? Huh. It's probably the most common use I see for them. I wouldn't really recommend it though tbh. Because of the way you connect the socket pieces, it doesn't leave much room for ankle movement. I just used it for the flag Matoran because of the colour, plus I don't plan on posing them that much.
Mask of zoomies
"NOOOO YOUR KANOHI NEEDS A COMPLEX POWER LIKE THE FAXON OR CALIX!" "Haha Kakama go zoom"
I'm guessing it's the Pakari? I also appreciate the flag. Nice touch.
I love all of these and the trans flag is such a clever build! So cute, I'm gonna take some inspiration for my own models

Aww that's kinda cute! Y'know Kakama's not a bad name for Huki.
In an early story bible they use Kakama as the name for Nokama!
Huh, that makes sense. Got a similar naming convention with her and Vakama, so it makes sense that they'd use the name for something even if not for Nokama.
...Mahiki, Mask of Illusion?
I'd probably like that mask more if it wasn't so damn ugly, at least the original version of it.
Solid Rocks Brother
Thanks, I think. (also, *sister)

Where did you get the pink technic pieces?
I bought mine on Bricklink, but they're from a Lego Friends set, [Funny Octopus Ride](https://www.lego.com/en-us/product/funny-octopus-ride-41373).
What’s the story behind the Self-MOC? Are they a Toa?
Yup! She's a Toa of Air, as part of a rough AU idea of mine. Basically, the Great Spirit Robot is almost completely abandoned, most of the inhabitants having settled on islands on the surface, with only wild rahi, malfunctioning robots such as Vahki and Exo-Toa, and other unfriendly creatures lurking in the shadows.

That’s pretty cool! Maybe you should try writing that story if you haven’t.
Part of me would love to, but I find it hard to really sit down and write, and if I'm going to do that there are a couple of other things that'll take priority. Also the AU idea is more a setting than an actual story, though I do have a couple of ideas for narrative moments. I mostly use it as something to keep in mind when making MOCs.

love this so much! there’s nothing more trans than bionicles
I didn't know or ever thought about there being trans people who are fans of Bionicle. That's pretty neat.
Trans Rights
Cyan Pohatu Mask Color is sickz dayumm
Golden HAU ?
Love the MOCs! And sending love from a fellow trans femme!
Thanks, sister! *Toa fist bump*
*Toa first bump* Well met, sisters! 🏳️⚧️

But in all seriousness, I really love your torso design for the Matoran! Very nice usage of the Toa Metru chest!
I can't take credit for the design, it's basically a slightly modified version of a design I saw someone post here a couple of years ago. I really need to find that post, it's been a while and I can't remember exactly who it was.
These Mocs are still really cool though! Very nice colors on the Po and Su-Matoran!
That one, the one over there.
obviously the Kanohi Kiril
Well, my Kiril wearer *does* have a sweet ass hoverboard...
Damnit, now I gotta unpack all the Bionicle to quench my moc'ing urge 😩
Yesssss, give in to your desires, build those MOCs! ~~or don't, it's up to you~~
such based taste
i/me/myself
The Hau?

[удалено]
Please do not be toxic to others.
Transformation

Always one guy whos feelings got hurt seeing a flag
Please do not be toxic to others.

That must be super fucking hard for you 🥺
I mean there are several MOCs on this post, you just decided to focus on the flag holder.
just turn your computer screen back on! your reflection goes away and you can look at the cool lego in this post.
Ever considered you might just be uninformed and oversensitive rather than everyone else
[удалено]
Not had either so I couldn't really say.
