This is a revamp to the original Evo Breakout set. I made it as a tribute to how much I liked that set in it's semplicity. Honestly one of my favourite. The build is simple, but I tried to spice things up nonetheless with the leg design, arm cannon and entirely custom torso.

An original member of the Hand of Artahka, Strorenn is no great warrior but a reliable builder; a designer of grand complexes in the early days of Mata Nui. As time passed and the Hand eventually disbanded, he was one of a few not asked to join the succeeding group, the Order of Mata Nui. With his purpose gone, and the golden age of creation in the decline, Strorenn took to wandering the internal robotic world as a nomad.
Over the years he formed a bond with the culture of Po-Matoran and occasionally would help out around construction sites before moving on again. On one such occasion, disaster struck. Due to his large size, one act of clumsiness would level the entire work site, turning all carved works into dust. From this, a legend would arise from matoran rumors of a large rahi that comes once a year to destroy or steal their possessions.
Due to this bleak myth and an ill-chance encounter with the Toa Mangai, Strorenn was wrongly placed within the deep catacombs of the Metru Nui archives. It was during this time Strorenn looked to the future, realizing he must learn to defend himself, and honed his physical strength while imprisoned.
Years passed again and eventually he broke free with rest of the catalogued beasts during Teridax’s beginning reign of the city. Rumor says he was last seen trudging through the swamps of Karda Nui, looking to fulfill his destiny as the protector of Artahka’s Codrex.
Background art inspired by “Karda Nui Swamp concept” by Christian Faber
Slow and steady, a patient wanderer walks through the forest. Unsure of his destination he takes solace in the journey itself, knowing that the most precious of memories come from a simple life.

In a year of big leaps on my LEGO journey it’s perfect it should end on another bang!
While at BrickFairVA 2024, I was invited by ConnLUG to join their organization and join one of their biggest display events of the year; the Festival of Trees & Traditions at the Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art!
I was delighted! For such an auspicious event, and as a new member of ConnLUG, I was honored by their placement in the museum to display my creations, and knew I had to make something worthy of the event! Thus! The Soaring Eagle piece was chosen, and as its perfect display partner - the Golden Bull was revived! It had fallen to pieces since its debut in 2023 but had been patiently waiting for my attention once again, and so was rebuilt during the end of November, finishing only hours before the installation deadline on December 1st.
The Bull and the Eagle will be further on display for a while longer in 2025, alongside famous works of art from the historical to the modern. If you’re able to see it in person, I highly recommend you do so, and get lost in all the amazing art along the way!
My thanks goes to Nick Campbell for finding me at BrickFairVA and helping my every step to this next layer of LEGO life!
Thank you to Cam Panczak and the everyone in ConnLUG for welcoming me to their team and community!
And a big thank you to the Wadsworth Atheneum for giving my creations such an amazing and artful place of honor to display at!
5 years ago the crew of the Mantis found each other and formed a bond strong enough to hold back the forces of the Empire. But time has passed. Cal and NerD-1 find themselves desperate, alone, and on the run, as the wider galaxy only descends further into darkness. Only together will they just might keep themselves ahead of trouble.

Just like a bodybuilder, Buzzwole is often seen striking poses that show off its massive, abnormally swollen muscles. The creature’s body covered in red blood-like filled sacs with veins that are said to be as hard as steel. Buzzwole’s crushing power and unbridled rage give way to fearsome physical damage, and worst of all, a stabbing attack from its silver proboscis which can drain and steal opponents’ energy! This giant extra-dimensional anthropomorphic mosquito packs quite a pulverizing punch!

A life threatening, system crumbling cybernetic plague, VIROT is a virus designed on the bacteriophage of eons past. This computer devourer is able to infect a hero’s core and either reprogram them for evil or shut them down for good.
Type A, the infection type, is small, nearly undetectable, with an emphasis on its rapid replication. Type B phages are a larger mutation that carry microscopic incision equipment used to inject nanites. These nano machines either act as miniature explosives, irreversibly damaging the hero’s Quaza Core, or act to change the materials within core, turning it into ANTI-QUAZA and sending the hero into a downward spiral of evil.

Built for Hero February 2023
Made for Hero February over on Instagram.
Just a fun little build primarily for my own enjoyment, made with the goal of using only pieces I currently have in my collection and of course, finishing before the end of the month.
Nitroblast and the Fire Villains are definitely a soft spot for me in the HF Roster, with some very charming sets and interesting designs from the earliest days of CCBS. With this revamp I wanted to honor the most unique and iconic features from the original, while doing my best to balance a cleaner, sleeker design with the Fire Villain's signature style of spikes, flames and jet engines.
It was a lot of fun to tackle a weirder character and design, without the pressures of more humanoid proportions and techniques.
I hope you all enjoy!

I had a ton of fun with this build, mainly because I had the opportunity to work with talented builders that I respect and admire. This MOC is part of my very first collab, and it was put together by Ems Mocs, from our Italian Community.
We put on ourselves the limitation of building smaller scaled heroes, so that Ems' Villains would truly feel like intimidating foes for our MOCs. It was a fun build, I tried to experiment a little with custom thighs that feature multiple articulations. What inspired the build in the first place are her boomerangs. Overall a fun and enjoyable experience!

Behind every successful Hero model, there are others that weren’t quite as effective. Introducing Proto Team’s first member, Samson Buster 2.5. Designed before the 3.0 models, he was meant to go toe to toe with Quatros’ dangerous wildlife, but it quickly became apparent that building a full gorilla hexosuit would tear through the assigned budget. As a result, Buster was stuck with a giant mechanical arm and chronic back pain.

LORD OVERDEATH's "servants" Randall and Mudd. They'd do anything he says. After all, what other choice do they have...
LORD OVERDEATH's favored servant, Baron Mudd has been given the high honor of carrying LORD OVERDEATH's banner, much to Randall's envy. Mudd's hatred for LORD OVERDEATH is trumped only by his hatred for Randall. Despite his great skill with weapons, he dares not escape, for he knows that greater dangers lie in the world of BEDLAM...
Like LORD OVERDEATH, Randall and Mudd are collaborative creations between myself and Neal, though he had a much larger role in creating these two than I. Mudd was made first as a character for his upcoming comic, BEDLAM, and Randall was first sketched at this year's BFVA. I've posted the sketches of them in the album, so you can see how many artistic liberties I took with them.
Consider none of the flavor text I've written to be canon in BEDLAM.
Since I built Xplode, it seemed only a matter of time before I built his Arch-Nemesis (according to the back of the box) Good ol’ Dunkan Bulk.
Yeah this guy was...a challenge. A fun one, a really satisfying one, but a challenge nonetheless. Unlike Xplode, Bulk has had several sets, all of which interpret him in pretty different ways. I chose to hone in on those details that felt most true to the character, and his role in Alpha Team. So I decided to make something of a blend of his 1.0 and Breakout incarnations, with some light sprinklings of details from his other versions. His Core was lifted from his 3.0 set, to help bring out some more of the orange accents that became more prevalent with each design.
His overall color scheme is a return to his original set, with the black accents beneath heavy silver armor, and some orange to make it pop. I find it’s a much more clean and crisp combination, compared to the much muddier and bland colors of his later sets.
A big source of inspiration as I continued building was the look of some other “Big guy” characters, namely War Machine and Ironhide (the one from the WFC-FOC games) and those kinda helped bring some of his weapons and proportions into focus. I went with much slimmer, shorter legs, to really emphasize his large shoulders and chest. In some pictures they look a bit wonky, but in person I think they look pretty neat.
His main weapon is heavily inspired by the guns from the aforementioned Transformers games, even down to the way he holds it, felt appropriate for the big guy to be lugging around some massive cannon like that, so I went with it. Plus it works as a nice callback to Bulk’s previous arm-guns.
The biggest issue I personally have with this build is the articulation. It’s awful. In my efforts to make him as beefy as I could, a lot of joints were restricted. He looks fine just sorta...standing there, but compared to Xplode he’s practically a statue.
Overall I’m really happy with how this MOC turned out, and I’d love to continue doing HF revamps in the future (if I don’t run out of pieces first)
Thanks for checking out my stuff! Have a great day!

This is a MOV of Ems' original design of Dennis Price, and my entry for his MOV Contest. Out of all his 2.5 Heroes, Dennis is definitely among my favourites because of his layered color scheme and shoulder cannons. I tried to replicate these aspects of the original design, giving him detailed custom built gloves and forearms, two weapons mounted on his back, a mostly accurate color scheme and a custom painted face. Had a ton of fun building him!
The swamps rest still, not a sound to be heard for miles except that of running water. The deadliest of predators lurks below the surface, motionless. Many believe the secret to hunting to be a matter of strength, or perhaps a display of endurance. Toa of Water Ihuroa knows it to be a test of patience, and when the moment is right she always strikes true.

I upgraded this guy a couple months back, but since everyone's doing new photoshoots for #nationalselfmocsday I figured now would be a good time to post him!
The updates are mainly to his proportions and stability, with a drone companion and arm-cannon added on for kicks and giggles. Oh yeah, energy cells on his back for powering his weapons.
Overall I'm really happy with where RT is right now, kinda feels like I've worked all of the kinks out of this particular iteration.

LORD OVERDEATH's "servants" Randall and Mudd. They'd do anything he says. After all, what other choice do they have...
Calm, collected, and intelligent. None of these words could describe Randall. The self-titled Technociraptor loves only destruction and LORD OVERDEATH. Despite LORD OVERDEATH's hatred for Randall, he keeps him around. It's difficult to find someone so eager and willing to serve in the world of BEDLAM...

“Where there is one, there will be more…”
Many ages ago a demonic ruler sent forth a terrible plague as a sign of the apocalypse. Damned souls led the charge, mutated into horrible creatures resembling the insects that flooded the land and choked the sky.
Time has passed and all that remains is this preserved husk, kept by a curiosity collector. But something still stirs. A terrible buzzing and clawing comes at night. The locust calls to its brethren…
A Po-Matoran who loves Kohli and once helped Takua along his journeys?… Or a secretive, all powerful, all knowing, Great Being in disguise?
The one who would choose to become known as Podu, was already reclusive compared to his fellow great beings. More concerned with the next technological project than associating or allying himself with others.
When the great cataclysm of Sphereus Magna came crashing down many great beings gave in to their fear and joined Velika in his plan to escape within the Great Spirit robot.
Podu quickly regretted his choice to throw in with the crazed Velika and parted ways with the mad being. He took up a simple life, using his advanced engineering skills as a stone carver in Metru Nui, and later again on the island of Mata Nui.
After the conjunction of the planets and Bara Magna bloomed, Podu moved into the Great Desert with the rest of the Po-Matoran, continuing to fool everyone.
Upon hearing of Velika’s path of destruction across the planet, Podu realized there would be no solace. The veneer of his false identity cracked, revealing the intelligent monster that had been waiting to strike all these many years. Leaving his hidden life, Podu plans to return to his ancient workshop and release his terrible creations upon the world so that he may be finally left alone in silent peace.

Built for the preliminary round of Bio-Cup 2022
Theme: Nature
I won't deny that I was stuck, looking for a concept, for as long as a full week. I really wanted to avoid making a whole moc designed around plants, trees or flowers, and didn't want to make a simple animal either.
The concept behind this build is quite straight-forward: what if Mother Nature was some kind of lovecraftian, outer space entity, instead of her typical motherly/human-like depiction?
The first things I designed were the torso and belly. I really wanted to keep the key mother nature symbolism (all the recalls to fertility and being a mother and whatnot) while adding an outerworldly feel to all of it. I also wanted her head to have a single eye that resembled a bright star.
The addition of tentacles at the vertical edges of the moc was a simple way to strengthen the cosmic horror feel of the build. The blue zamor represents, of course, a planet fit to inhabit life.
Huge thanks to @Dv_mocs and @Carecreations_ for helping me out both in defining the early concept and in the final edits!
When the brains attacked Makuhero City, preventing the heroes from being infected became of utmost priority for Hero Factory. As a result, in order to safeguard the precious Quaza Hero Cores many new pieces of armor were developed. One of these prototypes is proudly worn by Proto Team Leader Omar Cage and is said to be the most unbreachable and secure Quaza Core ever installed. It is so secure, in fact, that it requires a 40 minutes disassembly process every time it needs to be recharged. No matter how smart the enemy, no brain can get through three passwords, an armored padlock, a fingerprint scan and a captcha!
