Difference in bricks color

Hello everyone. I ordered Takadox’s shields and his mask to complete the set. If you look at the mask (photo is'not great) you can see that one of them is darker than the other (irl it's very remarkable). Also check glowing shield on the back on 2nd photo - it's definitely darker then others. Both are not faded: they’re brand‑new Lego originals. Did these parts have been produced on different factories or what? When they're glowing - they have same color.

Same thing with 1 shield. Connected Dark blue mask and shield on the back so that they don 't differ too much.

As a child, I was very impressed by how beautiful parts glowing in the dark; now, with all additional glowing shields, it’s even more impressive.

I'm going to change black claws on his original weapons and replace black shorts socket ball connectors on crystal one, I guess that will fit him better.

Some progress on Roodaka

Rebuilded legs closer to  u/-Akumetsu- MOC. Ordered wrong bricks unfortunately (11211 instead of 52107) so some mirror parts on the knees is missed.

Still didnt't find a solution how connect central torso socket to the legs (https://youtube.com/shorts/r-GbIELMa_0?si=EfLO4kRDg4D0FaMO here is what it looks like)

Mostly I comprehend which parts is needed so I'll order them next month, hope I'll finish her this time without: "oh, fuck i missed that little brick and cannot connect anything because of this".

Advice for connectors

Hi guys. I'm currently trying to recreate Akumetsu Roodaka (1-3 screens or check his post https://www.reddit.com/r/bioniclelego/comments/1pzsegy/perfected\_my\_roodaka\_moc\_excuse\_the\_giant\_images/) and got some problems with connecting:

In original torso connected to the legs with 2 tubes and 1 sockets with tire (as we identified). But is central "tire" connector really connected to the legs? I tried to understand how it could be connected, but got only headache. Rn all top body is held only by the black tubes, and the ponytail's leverage greatly overweighs, causing the central, unсonnected part to detach (4-5 screens). Does anyone have any ideas how to do it without ruining view?

Reconstructed Takadox and turned him into MOC

Hello guys. I've been able to reconstruct my Takadox finally. Didn't find his weapons sadly so desided to create him custom hands. Added supporting tubes cause fists are very heavy, on the legs too. Of course they cutting articulation but that's nice for the first MOC, I guess.

I spent all my red spikes on him but still need to add some on hands and back. Also I will try hide tubes under his magnificent glowing parts when order more of them.

Advise needed

Tried to build some stuff today and got some troubles:

  1. Is there a way to do hands for Takadox more "estetique", idk. I don't like how bars (to which side fingers connect), stick out and don't know what can close it.

  2. What do you think about this thick hair for Roodaka (not pipes, ponytail) . I somehow like how it look, but only from the front and back view, side view is kinda... hmm...controversial. I'll try to close the gaps using visorak foot (in waiting for package), but maybe there is another way to build it thinner (or no need?).

  3. What do you think about Roodaka weapon? I know it isn't lore/movie accurate but looks pretty for me.

P. S. Takadox in this terrible condition, cause his sockets have been deadly cracked, some parts have been lost. Ordered replacement, maybe will get it this week.

What brick is this?

Hello. I'm trying collect all parts to make Roodaka MOC (this one: https://www.reddit.com/r/bioniclelego/s/2uXeQSIzMe), but cannot find this cylinder brick connecting to the socket. Does anyone know what is this? Or which brick can replace it? I searched Lego shops, but couldn't find anything look alike.

*It's a goddam tire. Thank you guys!

Old "Final Fighter" robots

Thanks to @dralcax managed to rebuilt old "Final Fighter" robots. Some parts missed or cracked, I'll try search them later. For blue tall women for sure.

I like how they looks like even though they don't have many parts. Problem with cracking sockets even worse then in Bionicle since they used cheaper plastic.

All of them have arms rotating mechanism with "gear wheels" like in 1 bionicle.

They even had their own Roodaka and Keetongu, lol. Amazing.

What is this? Google didn't find anything other than original bionicle

Found my 15-20 y.o. bionicle like robots. Does anyone know what is this? I wanted to construct it again but couldn't even find instructions or even name.
