Still waiting...

Ermahgerd. He looks BO$$ under blacklight.

Absolutely love it. I'll be making my official self-MOC soon. I must say, I originally was not a fan of the Hero Factory sets, but seeing the great works people have been posting using HF parts has altered my opinion. Though I do not care for the kits themselves, they do have some neat parts. Anyways, I cannot wait to see more of the amazing creations you've been constructing.

these are very good and i love the revamped antroz and krika sets they are awesome! i do have one question for you though yuri i was wondering if it wouldn't be to much trouble for you if you could do your version of my self moc ultimate rhagu he's viewable on my page i'm just kinda curious as how you would put a spin on him just i'd like him to keep his staff of power if you can just let me know

Incredible! The blacklight was very clever, because I would've never thought Bionicle pieces would glow like that. And the buzz saws for fingers are also interesting.

Ah if anyone could make it through it im certain you could among others of course. Cant say moving is the funnest thing to do but its better then not doing anything at all… ok mabey not… Zeiro…

Sorry, not for a few weeks. I'm currently moving to my new apartment.

Well, Mr. Yuri. I am proud to hae reminded you of something fairly amaising:) but there are much more important things to be reminded of in this world like the tachikoma or… halo 4… more importantly, where did i put my dinne plate???!?!… sory i gotta find that. Hope to see another peice from you! Zeiro…

Whoa. I'm gonna go ahead and guess that, while he looks simple, he's probably not.Very nice revamps of possibly the two coolest makuta of 2008/2009. Those were good times. And, If you have the time, you could do me a big favor and look at this: http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/346883

question... HOW the lights

My name starts with a Y, so why not :)

Why!?! Just, why! XD Awesome self moc with an awesome and unique design :) Great revamps too :)

Wow, this is very impressive! I love the black, grey, and trans-blue color scheme. The revamps are very nice. They have the essence of the original sets, but also looks unique and new. The use of black light to create that glow effect is very cool. Which reminds me...I have a black light. I may just have to use it, once I get around to finishing my first MOC for MOCPages. ;)

Incidentally, you just named another of my favorite sets. And the first where I found those cool neon blue pieces.

I love how eerie those green eyes made krika in the black light i dont nessecarally have a "favorite" bionicle. The one im working on revamping is Barraki takadox(thats right, the betrayer of the 6 kingdoms) but im also working on a gundam witch will take much longer Zeiro……

Great self-MOC. I'm still slightly surprised that you've made one, but I guess I'm not alone in that respect. Loved those revamps. Antroz is my favorite of the two though. Great work on all three, and I love the black light shots :)

No. I did consider making a group of 4 black Toas, each with a different Neon color, but I'm not that good at custom torsos, so I quit while I was ahead. lol I'm not.

Cool self moc so will you make a toa team which consist of what, when, where, who and how.

Awesome colors and great design. :D

Ooh, glowy... Er, I mean nice build, it's very "you" with all the glowing parts, as you're the only person I've ever seen put their MOCs under a blacklight. :)

Just was looking over your Flickr stream and noticed you're on Cracked. Love that website. XD

I only came By to say that you've unduly influenced me to consider building a Self-MOC (more on that later); then I saw your post below about DELETING your BATCH REPLY... *grits teeth* Ouch. ---I HAVE NEVER DONE THIS---. *looks shifty* --NEVER. NOT EVEN, um, TWICE... on the SAME MOC-- *darts nervous glance* --WITH THE SAME THREE PEOPLE's COMMENTS.-- *more shifty looks**edges off-stage, Zoidberg-style* /facepalm =D ~Cheers, Yuri~

See? That's exactly what I wanted to convey with those MOCs. Glad to see people saw it.

okay, I LOVE the self moc! The colors look fantastic, and I love the different techniques you used to bring this creation to life. The remakes also are amazing. Look like--- well remakes! Very true to the originals, while you still gave it your own flare.

Noooo! I was collecting all my replies in one comment, and then accidentally deleted that one too!

Ok, need to see this dude doing "Jazz hands" please. ~ Chris.

Nifty designs!

Wow those are sweat love the black light look on why. Krika should have a little more white but that's just a personal opinion type of thing. :)

I really like the color scheme, especially with the blacklight! Nice revamps, too. Well done!

Love the self-moc and Antroz is magnificent.

I love the final photo, where Toa Why glows with magical power in the black light but you can still his body. I like the plain black colour scheme that you've used, as it contrasts with the many multi-coloured Bionicle models that are normal.

That black light? effect, just looks so sinister. Ahh, one day, one day I'll try this bionical!

He's KILLER!

Doctor Who?

You've managed to take Bionicle, a topic and theme rarely respected on the Pages, and turned it into something truly wonderful, that everyone can enjoy. Fantastic work.

It only comes in green. Sorta adds a kinda poisonous flair, venom always comes in handy.

The main guy looks so cool in the black lights. Nifty creation sir!

Exceptional build. As always, I love the blacklight shots. Great stuff!

Gunmetal? Actually I think it's just black.

I like the upperbody of the moc

Why :) did you have to make such a great MOC? On a more serious note, I absolutely love the buzz-saw hand, along with the effect created by mixing trans light blue with gunmetal.

Extraordinary! Why is an original and very well balanced design with an outstanding feature. In my eyes he has a slight touch of steampunk, i like very much. Using three different types of armor on one MOC of this size is just terrific! Antroz should have looked like that right from the beginning, looks more powerful. Mistika-villain-sets aren't my favourite, but the revamps are great. I knew that the trans-neon parts glow if exposed to blacklight, but i'm surprised that the trans-blue are also glowing..

An excellent and carefully-crafted SelfMOC at last, eh? But of course! =) Yuri, the slate-&-blue trans is a tasteful choice. I appreciated your thematic choices in the Build and Backstory, and TOTALLY empathize with your reasons for putting it off so long. *blinks* I suppose I'll have to come up with one someday, too. SEE WHAT YOU'VE DONE!!! (And to boot, NOW I'm going to be set back the expense of a Blacklight (due to your shamelessly Epic Use thereof!)) CONFOUND IT!!! You should NEVER hit a man in his WALLET! BOOOO! =) The MOC's a proportional beauty, with nice greeble accents, and Cheers on the use (if I'm guessing correctly) of the blacklight PLUS some fainter ambient lighting for the latter group shots - the combination is VERY nice. As said: now I hafta go try it myself. *stomps off to E-Bay in a huff*... ;D

Very cool looking Self-MOC. I like those trans-light blue details. They are very evenly distributed and the pop so nicely against that black. Did you use some photo editting to get the illuminating effect?

A spellcaster indeed! So, this is how you 'see' yourself! Hmmm... most intriguing build! Love the blacklight pix! :)

All of these are simply amazing, but I have a secret pertaining to Krika... The Gresh stars armor detail fits in his mouth perfectly.

Most excellent self-MOC! Very unique, and fantastic armor. The revamps are very cool as well.

Haha, yeah, it's pretty complex. The Makuta were indeed one of the oldest species in the Matoran Universe- still not as old as the Glatorian and Agori, though (then again, they weren't even in the Matoran Universe in the first place).

cool stuff

Nice self MOC! Would hate to bump into him on a dark night :P

Toa Why looks excellent. He looks like the perfect blend of bulky in some places and not-so-bulky in others. The Stronius armor fits very well and makes him even more awesome! I would expect nothing less from a master builder.

Interesting design for Why.It just so happens that you also revamped my two fav Bionicles.Nice combinations of HF and Bio.

Awesome! I love the details and the chrome colour

Nice self-MOC, Yuri! By the way, Antroz and Krika did know each other- in fact they were both fighting the Nuva in Karda Nui together (along with five or six other Makuta). After that they all died, too- the antidermis of the Makuta species was contained by suits of armor (because if it dispersed they'd die) but their armor and antidermis was all destroyed by the massive energy surge of Mata Nui's heart reigniting. Antroz was somewhat interesting- the "honorable murderer" type- but personally I like Krika better; he had so much wasted potential as a character. Krika actually didn't agree with Teridax and The Plan; he knew it would destroy them all. He essentially joined the Makuta rebellion undercover, and worked against them in various ways over the years such as saving Miserix and warning Gali.

Wow! The blacklight is a really cool effect!

My, my! Quite an impressive V1 Self-MOC! Can't say I'm surprised, though. In the rut I'm in, it brings a nostalgic sigh to see some quality bio-MOCing; I've been doing a lot of system practice and such for my magnus opus. It's not giving me much spare time to post, but it'll be worth it...

Nice MOC!

Looks pretty awesome yuri...like the ice chainsaw blade things..... and the poseable waist;)

Why is very cool. The buzz claws are very nice looking, and his armor is well done too. The head protection idea is original. Antroz and Krika look pretty cool in black light too.

Wow, you made a Self-MOC... of all people, I wouldn't expect you to make one. Is this a sign that I may have to make one myself some day? Oh, my... (BTW, prepare for the humungus amount of Self-MOc requests and versions of it that may follow) Now, speaking of the MOC, this is very nice. Specially with the blacklight (what doesn't look good with it anyway?) I'm impressed at how the shades of black appear so different on camera...

Epic selfmoc and epic revamps!

very nice dude!

Sweet work! I love the guy on stilts, and the black light work is fabulous! -Ultra
