Right right. Time for a long-overdue comment.

Of the Toa I think Collerak stands out the most. I haven't been too keen on the earlier incarnations of the character, but I think it's safe to say this is the first legitimately solid version. I love the color scheme, love the Kanohi, the weapon looks excellent. The only fault I can find is the oversized Piraka feet, which look somewhat at odds with his Toa physique. Other than that, great stuff. Great use of armoring and the use of lime is wonderfully refreshing.

Kylerak and Viatra also stand out to me as characters who have emerged from the Toa construction process as successes. They both look adequately humanoid, have great armoring, and dedicated color schemes. I'd say that they look the most Toa-like, if that makes any sense at all. Kylerak looks pretty regal in his crimson armor and Viatra looks subtly feminine in the sense she is streamlined but appropriately so. Both are very impressive creations and great examples of the Inika build being used properly.

I also feel there's a certain charm behind Mikeku. I commend you for being able to fit brown armor into his build. That's a color that comes in short commodity these days. Better yet, you managed to give him a modified Kanoka disk launcher with the Kakama imprint on it. Excellent choice. Really brings back the '01 nostalgia. Overall, he's a smooth and slick Inika build. While he is a touch simple, he's simple in the sense that he actually accomplishes his intended purpose through a limited number of brown parts.

I'm always happy to see people make attempts to build Turaga. I'm happier still when I see people using something that isn't my Turaga design. But what pleases me the most is seeing it done well. I think you've definitely got the right proportions with these guys. Tolunga stands out as the pick of the bunch here with his fingers. I see the Arthron being used on Turaga all too infrequently so it's very refreshing to see that, plus I love his staff. Very original and modern. I feel that Letagh looks a touch too spiky to be a Turaga. He looks more like a warrior chieftain wearing the pelts of skinned Rahi than a delicate, old Turaga. Overall, the lack of noble Kanohi kinda bugs me here, especially with Nupui and Komatri just having random great masks, but that's a nitpick. Considering how few noble Kanohi are available to us as well, there aren't a great many ways to avoid it.

Still ongoing
