I Fixed my favorite BIONICLE - Spinax Revamp

Welcome to Mitch-Builds, I’m Mitch and I like to build custom LEGO creations!
Today I'm upgrading one of my favourite BIONICLE creatures Spinax from the 2007 set Maxilos and Spinax! I even added some custom lighting to this revamp!

it's fascinating how this man both uses master builder level techniques, and yet also feels like he's never touched a lego set in his life.

[@MitchBuilds]

Guilty as charged

[@Goeatpie]

I died inside when I saw him using all those illegal techniques

[@clifisboring]

@@GoeatpieI only saw a few of them

[@SPYROSTSABOURIS]

That's because he didn't design the moc

[@jeddeane4359]

@@SPYROSTSABOURIShow??

[@The_Dinosaur_Heretic]

It's really interesting to me how a lot of high level moc making is just stuffing things places and hoping they stay. Absolutely brilliant

[@MitchBuilds]

Hahah so true

[@justinjacobs1501]

That's me building Gundam as well...

[@unleo1335]

what does moc mean?

[@davitdavid7165]

​@unleo1335 it is an acronym for "my original creation". It is a term used in the lego community for unoficial builds.

[@Slaking_]

Sometimes you just gotta rely on the innovative building technique of "fuck it, good enough"

[@Grundleburger]

I love rebuilds of Bionicle sets that make them actually appear more bio-mechanical like they are in the lore, this is fantastic!

[@MitchBuilds]

Thanks so much!!

[@TheDirvish]

I honestly would NOT mind if Bionicle Gen 3 focused on a more adult audience like a lot of Lego sets and themes are doing these days, and prioritized Bionicle characters as huge, complex, hyper detailed rebuilds of classic sets and characters. Shut up and take my money.

[@Slendytubbiesf4n]

you should make this a series where you remake your favorite bionicles, I’d like to see you remake more in the future!

[@MitchBuilds]

The plan is that and much more!!

[@kaistoffel92]

[@johannkeaton1452]

This is such a good build! Love all the organic shapes you managed to cram in there. Does justice to half of what I strongly believe is the best Bionicle set.

[@MitchBuilds]

It's such a great set!! Glad you liked this revamp :)

[@lifdohop]

Although I disagree with the "illegal" building moves, the end result is absolutely gorgeus!

[@MitchBuilds]

Thank you, it's only a matter of time till you join me on the dark side! Haha, kidding asside I'm probably not the channel for you if you don't want to see illigal building techniques!

[@darkhowling6425]

As a noob when it comes to lego... the term illegal building move strikes me as SUPER stupid. sorry, but if it fits it sits... the end result speaks for itself. The fact that builders thinking outside the box and using pieces creatively is considered somehow "beneath" others who cannot see outside the limits of the instructions is simply ridiculous.

[@Zilten_]

@@darkhowling6425 It's more to do with the fact that the parts are under stress, and will be damaged if left like that for an extended period of time.

[@darkhowling6425]

[@kiffy_is_spiffy]

I didnt even know people were still into bionicle stuff, let alone made really cool custom ones like this! im not even super into lego stuff, but this popped into my recommended and decided to give it a watch. I didn't even realize your subscriber count or anything! i thought this was a waaayy larger channel! props to you dude! this is super cool, and you deserve way more subs!

Wow thanks for much for the support! More of this to come!

[@Devalius]

There's a whole community still going, making things like this and so much more including art and stories as well!

[@vincentpey3929]

This is the most overly complicated, finanically irrisponsible and lore accurate Bionicle moc ive ever seen. Amazing. Would love to see something like the Kardas Dragon build with this level of detail.

[@leightonzink6686]

I wish Lego sold this as a set!! Awesome work

[@MitchBuilds]

I'd buy 2!

As a genuine Horizon Zero Dawn enjoyer, i can't express how much i love these. You nailed it! great attention to detail! i subscribed, pls do more of these, i feel like there are tons of options to go forth!

[@G31M1]

I‘ve never really been into BIONICLE but it’s just really fun to watch you build this model piece by piece.

[@deka_99]

It's crazy how unbelievable cool and complex it looks, and yet it has all the essence of the original build. Great job on this one Mitch!

[@MitchBuilds]

Cheers!

[@grimdarkAngel]

As a fellow bionicle collector, it warms my heart seeing that the franchise hasn’t been forgotten.

[@cindyxie8077]

not sure how I ended up here but what a cool video! the creativity and complexity here is mind-blowing. video editing is top notch too.

Dude I’m so happy to see this on my feed. Knowing that there are still people out there who care enough and love Bionicle and Lego enough to rework characters and make content is so awesome. And this was SUPER well made!! I love being able to get your thoughts on what you’re making and follow along with you! You’ve now got a new subscriber and I can’t wait to see what you do next!!

Nah that's 👌🍝toby kadachi🍝👌

[@blargofallblargs3939]

This is so good! The wires, the clever parts usage, the sculpting to get the wolf proportions to be so strong and ferocious! You made Spinox the selling point of a two part Bionicle set from 2007! Top notch! The only way you could top it is... ...A certain Robot with Vezon's mask for shoulders

[@MitchBuilds]

Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it :)

[@emenefer]

I think this video is a good one to show non-lego fans and lego fans who never got into Bionicle. It illustrates the joyful process of making a character with these pieces.

[@MitchBuilds]

I'm honoured :)

[@mathewalexandercabingao9203]

Just this already has a ton of lore. The fact you used other spinaxes' parts for the legs really inspires a behemoth built using others of its own kind only for fighting.

[@Protoxdub]

went from cool spinax from my childhood to dead space kind of monstruous horror beast real fast . Amazing build technic too . I want this moc right now .

[@notthisguyagain5908]

I strongly recommend you keep Doing this with multiple builds. People would love to see re designs from a nearly endless catalog of bionicles!

[@BodiDelgrosse]

Yes the moc is amazing. But what I like even more is the video itself. The narration as you build and explain your thought process through out the video is exactly what I needed for bionicle moc content more like this please. 👍

[@MitchBuilds]

Thanks so much!!

[@pietrx6893]

OMFG i got it when i was yooouunnggg and i thought it looked kinda thin and weird, yet today, maybe 18 years later this video pops up out of nowhere in my feed

[@FetteKuh93]

I haven't done anything with Lego since I was a child but this is awesome and I totaly understand why adults love it too!

[@DivineEnclave22]

Today kids will never know how dope bionicles were

[@KompetenteEnte]

Great video, editing, humor and most important, great build! What I like the most is that it hasn't any empty or see-through spots like the original bionicles. I think that's very hard to do, to fill all those tiny gaps with yet functional and good looking pieces. It makes it seem like it really has a body

[@MitchBuilds]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@der.kommentierende.komment5275]

I wish you would do miniature photography. With a small smoke machine and some techniques and a bit of editing you could really bring these creations to life 🥺

[@Ruffle_potato]

My partner remembered I liked bionicle and sent this to me, really cool build! I always loved spinax

[@Talarkas]

Yessss, I loved dabbling with Spinax's design too, never anything to quite that degree, and still using legal build techniques (not a complaints, I have no issues with em lmao). This is easily one of the coolest renditions of the beastie I've ever seen. God I miss having my bionicle stuff, RIP to wherever it ended up over the years :(

[@MitchBuilds]

Thanks for the support!! And good luck with your revamp :)

Unf, the biomechanical look of this build is just gourmet. Chef's kiss.

[@gone9820]

You're the Bionicle MOC role model!! Most people just show the complete build for "inspiration" and don't teach how they did it, or the basic techniques for bionicle. Please keep up the good work! Also, because you're such a skilled buinicle builder: you don't need to, but it would be cool to see bionicle pieces be used for a more organic character (that doesn't look like a machine). I wanted to do a Cragger constraction, and use forest green bionicle pieces to give a cool scaley effect, but it always looks robotic. It would be cool to see bionicle pieces be used for more organic beings, and I think you would do a good job with that!
