Posted February 3, 200817 yr This is the Sonic Boom. My personal giant robot. See all 41 pics in the gallery: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=299112 The Sonic Boom stands 15 inches tall and is the only one of my MOCs to utilize crossover techniques. His arms and torso are Bionicle, as is his neck and face. His crotch is also brand new (The only time I will ever use that sentance in my life), because it kinda layers on the Technic brick, whatever doing that is called. Each of his fingers move, and he can fit my sigfig in his chest. He has seldom and very small balance issues, and his lover half at time seperates from his upper half. The Technic brick layering is strong, but it needs to be a little stronger, and his front hip plates are light grey, but not the some light grey. Also, everyting above his shoulder needs to be popped off to remove or put in a minifig. Other than that,he's perfect. He has 29 points of articulation, and is weaponless because I see no point in giving him any. There! Look! A tree! Mabye jumping? Doing some form of the robot Hello. Ah my eyeballs! Morning stretch. Looking out. Edited February 3, 200817 yr by UFO
February 3, 200817 yr Hahah I like the last one. It's like he is going out of his mind and ripping his hair out. Also, kudos for bringing it outside for natural lighting. It really highlights the color choices. Considering you used a lot of greyscale, this made a huge difference. Overall I really like it, especially the thoraxish area. It looks realistic, like there is a functioning mechanism in it, as opposed to these over humanized robots with exact proportions.
February 3, 200817 yr When i sow the first pic i think " Wtf is that a ship?" then i sow the second :P Cool
February 3, 200817 yr A wonderful use of different elements with an astounding range of expression and articulation. Very detailed and interestingly structured, a cool thing that is! *y*
February 8, 200817 yr Author So then, you guys like it? Cool Beans. Hm, I should try more System/Bionicle hybrids. I'm thinking of tying something moster-ish shaped next time.
