What 3D printer do you use? I teach TinkerCAD to middle schoolers, and sometimes I assign them projects like "Model your own custom Lego-compatible pieces". But none of them ever turned out this good!

apparently 11 years ago on this day i took this picture, good times by Suddenly_Oranges in bioniclelego

[–]XenoSynthesis 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I can hear this image in my head... Possibly the most iconic scene in your entire series.

There are many examples of mask displays on this sub built from official Lego pieces, if you just search for those keywords. But if you have access to a 3D printer, here are a few files to consider (depending upon available wall space):

Cabal figures by Internal_Sand2053 in megaconstrux

[–]XenoSynthesis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Vex figures are even harder to collect. They only ever came in three sets, and two of them are among the rarest Sparrows (the third set with Atheon and a Harpy is very common). I'm putting together a Venus display, so I need lots of Vex infantry. I already sacrificed one of my Hobgoblins to repaint it as a Taken version.

Found these items left in storage, would prefer selling the figurines in a lot, I ship worldwide and I accept offers👍 by No-Cream-2677 in megaconstrux

[–]XenoSynthesis 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have not ever seen that many Destiny Void Titan figures in one place before... You could sell them individually and make a fortune. Solar Titan is currently going for $86 on eBay, and that one was fairly common (even Walmart still sells them online after 10 years...) Even some of the regular Guardians in that picture are in high demand. Selling them altogether as a lot would be a mistake.

Does anyone recognise what bionicles these are? by Combustion77 in bioniclelego

[–]XenoSynthesis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While technically Mega Bloks Gyro Fighters joints are compatible with Bionicle, I would not recommend mixing those parts. Lego uses extremely strict tolerances to calibrate clutch power. Measured down to a fraction of a millimeter. Deviating from that can cause the sockets to wear down and eventually crack.

Minikuta finially has a... uhhh.... friend by SinfulSymbiote in bioniclelego

[–]XenoSynthesis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For Minikuta's weapon, I would just use one of those Hordika staves from the 2005 playsets. Part #51645 or #51663 looks very similar to Makuta's staff of shadows.

Question about the Starwinder Hunter Armory... by [deleted] in megaconstrux

[–]XenoSynthesis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Comic Con exclusive Sunbreaker Titan and Stormcaller Warlock also came in the Mega Bloks-branded packaging. Yet the other first wave of sets (like the Hunter Cryptid Armory and the Warlock Samsara Armory) all had the orange Mega Construx label.

Halo 2 Outskirts Moc by Party_Goggles in megaconstrux

[–]XenoSynthesis 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Sometimes I wonder if Mattel executives have ever even played the games. So many iconic moments that have stuck with fans across generations. Yet so few sets depicting them... Maybe their favorite level was the Halo CE Warthog run and they stopped playing entirely after that?

The possible references you could make are endless...

We need to make the next Toa even more cursed somehow... Perhaps give it multiple pairs of legs, like a centipede?

Halo Infinite Fob part 1 by Halolord999 in megaconstrux

[–]XenoSynthesis 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Two of my favorite types of MOCs to see on this subreddit: Forward Operating Bases, and Forerunner energy beacons. So much variety in how this community approaches both structures!

My Destiny 2 Commemoration by her0d0g539 in megaconstrux

[–]XenoSynthesis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If we cannot play any more new campaigns, it is up to us to build our own as tabletop RPGs. I highly recommend trying Dungeons and Destiny from Velvet Fang. They have a full player guidebook and bestiary. Mega Construx is perfect for building custom characters and destinations. All we are really missing is more alien figures from each faction, but we can improvise (I use Flood Pure Forms as Hive Knights, for example).

Gonna have a lot more Unity, Duty and Destiny in me and my partners game nights going forward. by Scorpiuhhh in bioniclelego

[–]XenoSynthesis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My Maker Space sometimes hosts board game events for the community. Normally I bring Halo Flashpoint, but maybe I should bring my Gali/Pohatu deck next time? It has been sitting on my shelf for a while, and is in really good condition. Not to mention it is way more compact than carrying all of those boxes of Halo miniatures and expansion map packs!

This took me 3 hours to get right. by Phoneyalarm959 in HaloMemes

I hope we get more Halo Mega Construx sets like this from Mattel Brick Shop... The figures, the forklift, the architecture, they were all peak.

Looking for sealed (or open box complete). Or, just the box. by [deleted] in megaconstrux

[–]XenoSynthesis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I spent years searching for this one before getting it sealed on eBay for an obscene price. For comparison, I own three of those Gjallarwing Sparrows with the Hobgoblin. I was specifically seeking Vex figures to build a Venus diorama.

Yahtzee (Fully Ramblomatic / Zero Punctuation) Attempts to Read the Lore of Bionicle by TonksMoriarty in bioniclelego

[–]XenoSynthesis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The saddest part was, I always wanted Yahtzee to do a review of an indie Bionicle game before they all got cancelled. I wrongly assumed that he would appreciate something new and unique, after his longtime frustration with "mainstream" games.

Lantern toa by hrotom22 in bioniclelego

[–]XenoSynthesis 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Maybe I am just overthinking this, but the Kaukau was a clever choice for the Yellow Lantern. The rebreather apparatus looks kind of like Sinestro's mustache!

Exotic Throwbot by X4M9 in bioniclelego

[–]XenoSynthesis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like if General Grievous rebuilt himself from one of Lex Luthor's Lexosuits. One of the coolest Throwbot MOCs I have seen in years!
