    How does Takadox stack up to my other undersea Bionicle Revamps? Spinax: ua-cam.com/video/IaYATqnTnQc/v-deo.html and Maxilos: ua-cam.com/video/NSF-59kGUSM/v-deo.html And who do you want to see next?

      Carapar!! Takadox is all alone in the shelf.. he certainly could use a [pawn] fellow Barraki with whom he's been buddies for so long, compared to the rest!
      Also crab 🦀

    The Baraki line was the first I ever bought the six characters and it cemented even more my passion for Bionicles. I really liked this line, being the first where the six were completely different from one another.
    Great job on this one Mitch !

    I'm gonna be honest when i first saw how you decided to revamp the eyes i wasnt sure if they would really fit the character as a whole, but seeing it all put together i realized that they harmonize perfectly with your design!
    I also LOVE how you use unconventional pieces like the dino limbs and make them look completely natural!
    I hope someday you'll get around to reimagine Ehlek as he was my favourite Barraki along with Carapar. Anyhow, whatever build you're doing next I'm Already lookin forward to it as your videos are always a big highlight and really entertaining!
    Keep up the good work!!

    You've quickly become one of my favourite channels on UA-cam. I've been reminiscing unto my assemblies as a child, combining all the Lego bionicles with traditional pieces to create my own creations. Just making me feel like starting my collection now and giving this a crack. Wholesome and awesome content as always, Mitch

  • @antroz66
    @antroz66 2 місяці тому +1

    You make some of the most incredible and unbelievable Bionicle models I've ever seen, perfectly blending organic and mechanical aesthetics with wild parts usage. I would die and/or kill to see you revamp Karzahni (the actual set, not pre-mutation), Kalmah, and/or Krika (my favourite sets after Antroz-your Antroz revamp is maybe my favourite Bionicle MOC of all time). Short of them specifically, any villain from the Ignition Trilogy would be awesome. I think 2006-2008 was Bionicle's best run and your takes on sets from that era have been so inspiring

  • @_Sascha_
    @_Sascha_ 2 місяці тому +26

    A video would be interesting where you could explain your thought-process when planing/building one of your projects. Doesn't need to be about the whole build, maybe just an arm or the head. I would find that very entertaining because I watch your videos and always wonder "How the heck did he come up with that build!?"

    • @Antraxx997
      @Antraxx997 2 місяці тому +1

      Mmh, honestly I don’t think there is much « process » apart building , especially a revamp cause you already know what global appearance you want . I don’t know if you build or how, but every builder got his preference, we can see Mitch like SW figures armor and Bar, small details and cable, smooth surfaces, and he train his built skills in this direction . The process is mainly choosing pieces you want to see together after all and when you try to assemble them sometimes an astonishing design pop in your head , a way of assemble these , etc it’s the magic of Lego

    I think this is my favorite of your mocs. It still uses some of your- *ahem* -“interesting” techniques (which I don’t mind personally but I’d be lying if I said there wasn’t some part of my ocd brain cringing) but like, in a way I could almost see Lego themselves doing. The design itself forces you to work simple and skinny, and you did it beautifully. And the way you incorporated the ratchet joint to create the thigh swivel without needing to use the other ratchet parts is inspired, I definitely have to borrow that for my own builds.

    • @SKJ_Kara
      @SKJ_Kara 2 місяці тому +4

      Usually breaking, over-stressing or modifying parts makes me cringe, but these MOCs are such pieces of art that the worth of the designs surpasses the worth of the individual pieces to a point where in my honest opinion the world would be a slightly worse place without the MOCs but with the parts intact.

    For me the issue is that when takadox is introduced in the books, he is described as skeletal, a pale shell of a person with two ruby eyes that mesmerize and bore into you.
    Essentially, he's little more then an aquatic skeleton with hypnotic powers.
    Which is also why I think his OG design works so well.

    Barraki are my absolute favorite. Maybe that's sacrilege to say, however they offered the brightest colors, _and_ most varied builds since the Toa Mata.
    The feeling I got when I saw them released, was the _exact same_ feeling I got seeing Bionicle for the first time as a kid, and by then I was well and older.
    I forget what age exactly, but I'm 25 now so run the math on that
