Ok but why do these two bits of VNOG concept art look so damn cool?
(also they kinda look like something from the cover of a late-'60s/early-'70s Prog Rock album cover)

The Tripod Scout
Another creature inspired by Pikmin 2 :)
It's sort of an autonomous bot similar to the Nektan from Voya Nui Online game. Still an inorganic living being.

Nailu, Toa of Psionics
Nailu was never going to have it easy. Inheriting a ruined land, following in the (metaphorical) footsteps of Cekaha, the leader of the last band of Toa on Pazu Nui. But add on top powerful telepathy that makes civilisation unbearably noisy as she is unable to tune out everybody’s thoughts, Nailu is a lone wolf of the Toa who doesn’t exactly work alone but isn’t looking for friends either. She excels at long-range support, her Scramble Rifle having an effective range of about 10 kios and allowing her to discharge a powerful psionic bolt that overloads the senses of its target, outright killing weaker-minded beings. She gets on better with Rahi, whose more simple and uncomplicated thoughts are more bearable to her, and she uses them as her protectors and messengers. Nailu wears the Kanohi Taninsha, the Mask of Foresight, to pre-empt her opponent’s moves and lead her shots with uncanny precision.
Autistic bonkles? Autistic bonkles. Nailu is an adaptation of the old trope of the psychic who can’t turn off their powers, so she lives in isolation, but the analogue to sensory overload was too good to pass up. I also wanted to make a Sniper Wolf-esque ranger character, to complement Bionicle’s usual melee fighters (for obvious reasons, given Lego’s anti-violence stance). I really got to play a lot with the metallic and sand blue colours here, using lots of System parts for the Scramble Rifle. Side note, that part for the barrel of the rifle is one of my favourite Lego parts ever, ever since I first saw it on Anakin’s podracer in the Star Wars Episode 1 sets.

Come. Watch me cry and suffer. This is going to be hell.
I have stuff to CELEBRATE!

Shoutout to the Voya-Nui online game for accidentally making Kazi and Dalu trans. Remember, it’s not a continuity error if you don’t want it to be.
Guess whose playing that again. What can I say, it was my first sort-of rpg, and my first big Bionicle game. Plus I got back into Bionicle in 2006, after being driven away by the whole Hordika saga. #notmyVakama.

Builds one (1) old Bionicle set:
“I have to spend 3 hours on the wiki, and buy all the books I don’t have and re-read the entire story and play the Voya-Nui Online Game or I will Die”

Headcanon that the Nuva-derived "great" masks from VNOG exist in canon, but they're made and sold by a snake-oil salesmatoran who advertises them as authentic Nuva masks despite them just being regular Great masks forged into forms based on vague descriptions of the Toa Nuva.

Nektanns
(Not to be confused with the Skakdi Warlord of the same name, who was specificially named after these terrifying war machines.)
Nektanns are a deceptively simple design, yet incredibly terrifying in execution. What they lack in the general eccentricities, quirks, and gimmicks of other infamous war machines and weapons of Xia’s industries, they make up for in one vital asset; Pure precision. Armed with advanced, state-of-the-art AI, each Nektann is essentially equipped with a powerful aim-bot that can deduce and calculate the movements and trajectory of its targets in a split-second, before firing a powerful and precise laser with the same level of skill as a trained sniper. Unlike a living and breathing sniper however, Nektanns are always cold, precise, and methodical. Every shot they fire is meant to count, no lasers are wasted as they frequently aim for weak points.
Nektanns take the simplistic shape of a sphere, consisting of an upper and lower half. The lower-half has four mechanical legs protruding from the sides, stubby yet effective in transporting the machine at a reasonable speed. The upper half of a Nektann has four laser-cannons equally distributed around its perimeter. Each cannon can swivel around, enabling a Nektann to criss-cross fire with two of its lasers; Never three, and only four when a target is directly above the Nektann. Above the cannons is a ring-visor continuously built around the Nektann’s perimeter, enabling constant, 360-degree vision.
A Nektann’s upper half can rotate and swivel in rapid yet precise movements, capable of turning a full 360 degrees. To minimize such movement (which would take up a precious split-second to re-orient a cannon to move a target within range), multiple cannons were installed instead of just one, precisely for this purpose. Upon detecting any number of hostile intruders or targets, the Nektann’s upper-half accordingly swivels and reorients its cannons as each one individually swivels around, locks onto an enemy, and fires. A Nektann can fire up to four lasers at once- But the more lasers it fires at a time, the weaker they are. As a result, a Nektann may choose to rapidly fire between each laser, fire two on one side, and then the other two, etc. Nektanns are, in essence, the ultimate turret due to their incredible accuracy.
Immobile Nektanns function as traditional, stationary turrets. Rooted into the ground as a dome above a miniature tower, Fixed Nektanns are typically connected to a larger energy source, enabling the usage of far more powerful and destructive lasers. Additionally, they are equipped with an additional row of cannons above their primary four, consisting of three; And a final one sticking directly off the top of the Nektann. Like their Mobile brethren, the Fixed Nektann can divert power and divide it across its multiple cannons, or focus it into fewer ones; However, it better compensates with access to a more proficient energy-source.
The earliest models of Nektann used to have only one turret, only for the numbers to increase from two, to three, and finally four. Initially, Nektanns only came in the Fixed variety; But as technology and efficient designs improved, eventually the Mobile variant was brought into the picture. Mobile Nektanns initially had longer, spindly legs that curved upwards before bending down; This led to an initial, hilarious issue of the legs occasionally getting in the way of a cannon and being shot off.
Engineers immediately remedied this error by programming subsequent Nektanns to avoid firing whenever their legs got in the way; But just as quickly afterwards, someone suggested bypassing the issue altogether, by redesigning the legs so they wouldn’t go above the Nektann’s ‘equator’. The solution was happily and readily implemented, to the dismay of anyone who had to deal with these horrifying machines.
Similarly, the efficiency and accuracy of Nektann AI has increased over time, resulting in faster processing power, better aim, split-second calculations of target trajectories and paths, etc. Nektanns gained the ability to fire from multiple cannons, before all four; And their original, Fixed predecessors were improved upon.
Despite their devastating speed and accuracy, the Nektann is thankfully not invincible. The Mobile variant only has four cannons, and thus can only focus on four targets at a time; Groups of enemies above this number can cleverly outmaneuver the Nektann by hiding behind cover while constantly moving back and forth to disorient the machine’s programming. Like any AI, it is also not perfect, and liable to mistakes in programming, or choosing the most likely option only to fail due to bad luck. A Nektann may predict a target to head one way, only for them to suddenly take a different path, either by their own volition or even from accidentally tripping. Additionally, their lasers, while powerful, can’t penetrate and completely destroy all obstacles. Generally speaking, the smaller and faster the target, the more likely the Nektann is to miss.
Fixed Nektanns bypass most of these issues thanks to their additional cannons and stronge fire-power, but unfortunately they can’t move around. Their fixed-position and reliance on underground cables connecting them to other energy-sources can make them vulnerable to subterranean sabotage as well. Some models of Fixed Nektann run on an independent power source, enabling them to bypass this weakness; But at the cost of fire-power that, while more powerful than that of its Mobile variety, is weaker than the typical Fixed Nektann.
Due to the incredibly complex and advanced programming behind each Nektann, the prices for models are incredibly high, rivalled by those of Exo-Toa. Whenever a Nektann is spotted, be it on the Zakaz battlefield, or as a security machine in other districts of Xia, terror will often strike the hearts of its potential targets. Mobile Nektanns can support an entire squad, or else operate independently; They can be programmed to deliberately ignore allies, and in some cases, shoot through them anyway if a target is right behind. Nektanns make for incredible guard, turrets, and sentries, and have been employed by multiple organizations to safe-guard key areas across Xia.
For example, the Archives’ above-ground entrance is guarded by a number of Super Nektanns; A more armored, efficient, and powerful variety of Nektann, custom-made. These Super Nektanns have AI that can snipe a scurrying rat from a distance, with lasers powerful enough to sear through most metal. Warden Rorze has even considered commissioning models of Super Nektann that could even incorporate Exo-Toa technology; And after the Okotan Expedition’s legendary break-in and retrieval of the Fragment of Earth, Rorze has begun to arrange deals with Vortixx Industries.
Nektanns are feared, legendary, and reputable on the battlefields of Zakaz. For their reputation, the eventual Skakdi warlord Nektann was named after these terrifying machines. They have seen increased production in use as of Xian-Okotan War, being utilized en masse by the Barraki to overwhelm the Okotan Alliance and gain ground in their invasions, while safe-guarding important locations; Especially from Okotans, Xian rebels, and Order of Mata Nui agents as well.
The Brotherhood of Makuta has also begun to make use of a few models, and Makuta may even have access to the safely-guarded plans and schematics behind the Nektann AI… Despite reservations by some, both the Okotan Alliance and Xian Rebellion have taken to uiziling Nektanns as well; However, the Barraki control the primary sources for these machines, as well as key manufacturing centers in Artidax and Tametru- Thereby allowing them to own the largest army of Nektanns in existence.

(Okay, I’m going to be level here; These things are basically IG-11 from The Mandalorian, but orb-shaped and more akin to their appearance in the Voya Nui Online Game. The earliest models looked nearly identical to their G1 counterparts, hence the detail of legs having once gotten in the way of lasers. As of now, I’m retconning the description for Nektanns that I had with my Xia weaponry post, and this is the official one; No more self-repairing abilities, alas!
And similarly, the Nektanns are no longer mass-swarm robots as initially envisioned in RaE, but more akin to select, specialized units that make an occasional appearance on the battlefield. They also don’t self-repair anymore; I’m thinking of isolating this feature as an entirely separate Xian invention, specifically individual swarms of nano-machines that can be assigned to various machines to ‘repair’ them everytime damage is taken.)

What, exactly, is your favorite Bionicle memory? If you don't mind my asking.
To be fair, I have a few favorites,
When I first saw Bionicle figures for the first time up on my aunt’s shelf, and was so amazed and was introduced to the world and lore of bionicle, I was immediately sold, soon after, my dad got me my first figure, Pohatu.
My second favorite moment was when the first movie was starting to get advertised, then spending time writing while listening to the second movie in french and listening to its soundtrack on the various menus.
my third was when I was defeated the lava ape for the first time in the Voya Nui Online Game, was live blogging about it to my brother, he kept warning me to not do it, but I was like “I’M GONNA DO IT >:U” and then a tense few minutes later I was like “I DID IT!! :’D” and I had to take a screenshot to prove I did do it, because he didn’t believe me.
My fourth was when the Barraki were teasered, in that official display, submerged in water. For some reason that stood out to me, and I knew from there that it’d be one of my favorite years.
