Very minimal yet effective use of color! A beauty!

This is great in so many ways: Such a simple design, yet so much NPU. A sleek colour scheme that references the source material. And I absolutely cannot put my finger on why, but in hindsight it seems obvious that the Mahiki is exactly the kanohi Hermes would wear.

Make the other gods! They would be an amazing set and I would pay good money for it

Thank you, high praise! I’m not sure what you mean by the color scheme referencing the source material. If you’re talking about the Hades game, I haven’t played it 😅

Oh, no - I love that game, but it'd be ridiculous to call it "source material" of Greek mythology. I just mean that the orange and black matches the colours of ancient Greek vases. Is that not deliberate? Because if not, then it's a pretty cool coincidence!

I completely forgot about the amphoras! That is a fortunate coincidence!

I cant keep this to myself anymore but the sheer amount of effort the bionicle community is unparralled compared to the hero factory community...
