Description I wanted to recreate the six original, giving them the same treatment as the Transformers of the '80s.
Instead of looking like mere playthings, they are now works of art, much larger and leaps and bounds more posable than their predecessors.

This is the Toa of Ice, weilding the original sword, but an enhanced shield. And yes, he now dons a cape.

what sets did you use? is there like a generic parts set one can get. I jumped in late in the game, started collecting them. . . for. . . my. . . . son, yah that's it, started collecting them for my son with this new movie, so all I got’s is the Glatorian stuff, and some of last years vehicles. and the deluxe collector yadayada mata nui. I wanted to build a beefed up Akar.

This figure in particular, and most of the other models of mine, are from older pieces. I'm not too impressed with the most recent sets myself, but gettting in late is better than not at all, haha.

Anyway, this is mostly made from two old Kopaka sets, a Kopaka Nuva, a Nuju, and a lot of generic white parts.
If you're serious about catching up with bionicle parts, you may want to consider sites such as brickshelf.com, where people sell lots of spare parts. I haven't done it myself, but I've heard of many other people do so.

Good luck in your ventures in bionicle.

I really like your Legend Editions How you made Gali more feminine with the Nuva Shoulder Pads as chests. And that you kind of made Pohatu's body look turned upside down like the original. And The cape you added to Kopaka, awesome. Does he only have 1 shoulder pad? Incase he does it really suits him

Nice work on all of these! The cape on Kopaka is a nice touch. Though perhaps you should try to add something to the feet; they look a little small on all of them.

Wow, thanks mate!
Hehe, you know, I thought about that...
It's really bad on Tahu.
Thanks for pointing that out.
I tried to get closer to human proportions than the usual Bionicle figures, which have feet gigantic in comparison to the body.
