I UPGRADED the new LEGO BIONICLE

That small inclusion of Technic connectors, balljoints, and sockets really gives the set a more Bionicle look, which makes sense cause all constraction sets stem from Technic build system modified for buildable characters (as oppose to vehicles).

I thought Lego did a pretty good job, but this is even cooler. It really looks like Tahu in the body shape now

I miss the classic Lego themes from the early 2000’s. They were just so unique and had story. Now all we get is batcaves and police stations. Back then we got power miners, space police, agents, bionicles, etc. glad they are starting to bring back some of there better ideas in some sort of way.

[bodhigoh]

You really have to make more bioncle Mocs in this style.

The missing link between system and technic versions
Looks great, I especially love how the piece on top of his head has a semblance of the vent present on the OG's mask!

[calciumguy]

I like the look of Lego’s recreation better, but yours is definitely more accurate, and it looks amazing!

[chrisv]

Leave it to Lego fans to take something already good and make it so much better. That’s friken awesome

[thebiggerfish]

As much as I love the big chunky MegaMan-ness of the official set and the passion of the designers behind it to make it a reality, I genuinely love your take a lot as well. It's such a nice blending of the best of both worlds and I love how you translated the textured style of early Bionicle into bricks.

ALso Googly Eyes Tahu still reigns supreme no matter what. That's just scientific fact.

[HanesAnimates]

Very interesting take! I love alot of these building techniques that you used. I always thought in my head that the technic pieces could've worked better than the system built segments, but now I actually prefer the official system a bit more. Really nice work tho!

[stevenfreebairn]

Also, I love how you mostly used currently-available parts.

[spectoestis]

This is probably closer to what the wanted to do, but it would probably crank the GWP up to $200-ish dollars.

[ShikiKiryu]

Now this takes me back...gosh I miss Bionicles...bring them back Lego!

[OlegFantik]

YES! I think that this gift set should have been just that, but maybe a little redone, because the feet show uncovered sticks, the hands look small and thin, the left ankle is too big, and the fire sword is too small for him (but this is already a lego problem, because they still haven't made a part of the fire bigger than this). It's cool that you added sockets and more tech parts, and now it doesn't look like a pathetic mixel, but more like a new Bionicle)

[Chrisspru]

with a small modification this tahu build can have knees and elbows. i would also use a 3 pin instead of a 2 pin for the thigh to balljoint connection(room for decoration and slightly longer legs)

[thecringeslayer]

Don't upgrade him, he's already the perfect boi.

[avocadomasher]

It is much closer to what classic Bionicle look is. Really good job! Sometimes I wonder why Lego doesn't get opinions from creators like you before finalising their product. Especially in this case of Bionicle in 2023.

[lloydmartel]

you'd think lego would give more tribute to the franchise that arguably single handedly saved them from bankruptcy

[JNYRAII]

this is nice, but the original is better, all it needs is ankle joints and sturdier arms.

[thewoollyviking]

This looks absolutely amazing! Major kudos!

[brenopaiva]

This is what it should have looked like!! Brilliant!!
