I didn’t imagine them that way either, but it’s not that big of a stretch. The shape of the head/back plate and the spines do look pretty lizardy. And the way their shoulders move when you turn the gear is literally how lizards’ legs work.
Truly. I was thinking maybe it’s just nostalgia but honestly I have nostalgia for all those old BIONICLEs, but the Rahkshi were just so well designed. The lizard/snake-like body, the predator split jaws on the mouth, the spikes on the spine, the spear as a weapon… it’s pure gold. SO iconic.
Idc if the sets were multiple hundreds of dollars; if Lego put out throwback bionicle sets with this level of detail, creativity, and quality, I’d buy every single one of them.
I wish they’d do like advance statues of Bionicle figures. Best way I can explain this is you have the toy version. It can take a beating. The statue version is a bit more delicate and isn't a toy but has way more detail, way more complex and made for older more experienced Lego and technic crowds.
@@adtrlthegamer7449 Yeah. Bionicles that are more detailed and intricate and made for collectors. I'm imaginging a more detailed Takanuva from the first film and can see an eye watering price tag but it'd look so good.
Honestly, I'd just love for even the original Bionicle to make a return at some point. I lost my entire collection do to a fire, and trying to buy them again, will cost me an arm and a leg..
Honestly, if Bionicle came back, your mix of bionicle and "normal" parts is how I'd want it. The pure Technic/Constraction designs of official bionicles always feel unfinished because there's inevitably holes that you don't use. The System bits cover it up very well!
@@BackflipBrickfilms I think they're saying that these take a lot more pieces to make than "normal" bionicles and would cost a lot due to the very high piece count.
I love Lego, but Bionicles will always be their best product in my eyes. I don’t have many originals anymore, because I modified them like this guy did. There were many casualties in the process of remodeling the few survivors…😂
To be absolutely honest these things look amazing but they would absolutely not be good for kids to play with. And that's the main demographic for lego. So yeah. Don't get me wrong thia guy's creations absolutely slap.
thank you so much for not doing the dumb youtuber meta of blurring out the end result in the thumbnail. that's such a pet peeve of mine, and it's such a breath of fresh air to just _see_ what i'm gonna be watching up front
35 seconds in and, 'my god'... Explaining your thought process with the narrated directions is such a service to people interested in what you do but lack the knowledge and experience that you do. Very well done. This will be the impetus for me getting all my old sets out and trying to do what I'm seeing done here.
HELL YES ANOTHER MITCHBUILDS VIDEO Edit: I wish you could have managed to put a Kraata in there but it’s still beautiful! You should do a bohrok next!!!
Your Channel is easily one of my favorites on TH-cam, everything about it is amazing. It reminds me of a lego version of North of the Border while still being its own thing. Keep up the good work man.
I just wanna say I love your channel so much! I just finished my first year of college and your videos have been more than helpful with giving me something to focus on when things got stressful. Congratulations on the sponsor and I can’t wait to see what you do next!!
This straight up looks like it came out of the Mask of Light movie, it's absolutely gorgeous!~ Bionicle was my childhood and you've given me such a nostalgia boost that I didn't know I needed today. Keep up the fantastic work, you just earned a new subscriber!
I really love your videos and the style of your creations! It's great posting just the building process without a part list, as it allows us to carefully follow along with the video to build your creation, learn, and feel the skills and parts involved using Studio. Also, a small suggestion: some building steps in the video are so quick that they are hard to follow.
Yes!! this build is soooo fracking sweet!! I've watched a few of Mitchbuilds videos and in my opinion his only skill crutch is using the original masks of the characters he reimages. again only my opinion as the iconic masks are what make bionicles easily recognizable, but this! this is pure creative gold!
That is a very solid redesign! Wouldn't mind watching you take on the different Toa that have been around through the ages either. Giving each of them some more personality
You finally got a sponsor I’m so happy to see this because I remember when I thought you would get a sponsor every video (which you deserved) because of those high quality builds and the videos are just so great keep it up and I will watch every video
Oooooooo, oh I smile at seeing this creation. I vaguelly remember my first ever Bionicle set being the brown rahkshi, and seeing this amazing MOC is impressive.
yeah that looks sick, well done. Only thing i think could have been added is something to cap off the spine, right now it just kinda ends and looks like there is something more that was supposed to be there
The Rahkshi were my first Bionicle. My father, who passed away a few years ago, bought me Turahk and I couldn't help but collect all 6. They will always have a special place in my heart. The redesign you have done is incredible. I'm wondering: could you make a detailed list of the parts used? On bricklink or a similar site. I would LOVE to replicate your design, and I wouldn't mind paying for it. Perhaps it is an additional way to monetize your creations. Greetings and keep it up!
Man you put actual LEGO sets to shame with your builds; the level of detail is insane. You really captured that “bio-mechanical” look. Reminds of a xenomorph kinda.
This is awesome, kudos for creating such a detailed build while staying true to the original design. Only thing missing is that it needs a place for the iconic Kraata to be held in the spine.
This is possibly my favourite build of yours so far! I've had the rahkshi head in my collection since I was a little kid :) I never could find the full model's parts sadly, but seeing you create such an amazing interpretation brings me so much joy! Beautiful as always!!
Wow, I love how menacing it looks and the armor pieces on the arms and legs. What you did with the spine and how those plate pieces interlock is awesome to look at. The Rahkshi were one of my favorites sets and the one I was the closest to having completed as a kid just because they look so cool. Really amazing job.
The brown Rahkshi was a gift I got in the early 2000's and the first Bionicle I ever saw. That one sparked an obession with the franchise that outlasted it by a country mile and persists to this day. Awesome to see it get such an amazing revamp! Edit: if you ever plan on making a Piraka revamp, that would be dope. Definately my favourite generation of Bionicle.
This is a lore accurate representation of how I tought my Rahkshis looked like when I was a child, playing with them. Thank you for this video. Amazing job :D
Man, you really did all the important features justice. The spines, the split faceplate, the KNEES. Just imagine if you managed to fit a kraata somewhere in there, then it'd really be definitive.
I love this. The Rakhshi was one of the first bionicle i got and this just brought me back so much. Goin with the villain theme would love to see a Barraki or Piraka build in the future. I always enjoyed the "villain" sets more than the Toa.
Maaaaan, I use to have so many Bionicles when I was a kid, I totally forgot about them, and somehow your video was recommended to me. Thanks for the nostalgia
Mitch PLEASE do a reimagining of a bionicle visorak. Those were always the most intimidating and badass bionicles growing up for me I think they deserve an upgrade with your interpretation of them!
Oh yeeee! Music of m childhood, this is nuts! Ao freaking cool! Edit: also huge congrats on the sponsor! That was the smoothest sponsor segment I've ever seen!
That is uncanny how similar the head shape and mouth look to the Mask of Light film, I can remember growing up sort of just having to imagine it as it was impossible to make a movie accurate head with the parts selection back then. Great job!
Truly inspiring. I need to get some ccbs and technic stuff next time I order parts. I usually build stuff that I feel like could have come in canisters back in the day, but man, if I had this as a kid, it would've been my favorite toy
I love to see these characters that you have build with your own style and I'd love to see Brutaka, Vezon and/or Kardas dragon get the spotlight sometime. Love your vids btw. Keep up the good work.
I would have thought the ankles would need more support, but it seems to have worked well. I guess that's what the friction extenders are for? I also love how the extra teeth assemblies mean the head can split open, like they did in the Mask of Light movie.
This video gave me so much nostalgia. My favorite bionicle was Krika from the 2008 mistika series. He was like a white insect creature with red accents. It would be awesome to see an updated version of him
Maan these are all fantastic! I hope one day you take on the challenge of remaking Kardas, one of my all time favourite combo sets that deserves the MitchBuilds treatment!
Love the builds! Your video structure is a pretty clear copy of Adam from north of the border, but you put your own twist on it and I love anything Lego so it’s a welcome overlap, keep up the good work!
By FAR my most favorite Bionicle villain type 🤩, and let me say, you've done this an absolute justice and then some! Let's be honest, the Toa Nuva would have stood NO chance against this beasty boy 😈 What I wouldn't give to see a full lineup of all 6 of them!
@@MitchBuilds I should have asked in my initial comment, but how much inspiration did you get from the Bionicle: Mask of Light movie? This looks like a pretty spot on build of the movie version of the Rahkshi! 💯
I used to think that I loved the Rahkshi the most from nostalgia, but then I realized I have nostalgia for all those old Bionicle sets. The Rahkshi simply had the best design. The spikes on the spine, the three part separating jaw reminiscent of Predator, the lizard/snake like body, the spear-like weapons, and last but certainly not least, the fact that the actual living piece is simply a slug like creature just controlling the Rahkshi body. Pure gold. A genius, SUPER iconic design. They actually used to scare me too like they have a real threatening factor to them. I like how they’re more animalistic than the rest of the bionicles
I've loved all of your reimagined sets, but this one is the best. The absolute best looking villains IMO. After them would be the Bohrok (love them rollie pollies), Vahki and Visorak. A parts list for this build would be fantastic, but thats gotta be so much work to compile.
I love the tongue. It feels like the movie with the worm things. I love the hunch and the tail too. But I don't know about the toenails. Makuta had certain beastly traits after his fusion but this was not some all emcompassing affect. He was still a bit humanoid. The toenails feel more Piraka or something. The toenails and the more slender shoulders with bulkier legs give less of a distorted knight and more of a demonic wyrm feeling, which subtracts from Makuta's own civilized insanity instead of complementing. Damn great.

That was such a slick transition to the ad read lol
WHERE'S THE RUBBER PART?
It would be great if Lego saw this and made it real
I dare you to make a Godzilla
This is the terrifying humanoid lizard the kids in us saw all those years ago. What a reimagining. Absolutely fckin gorgeous.
Exactly what I was going for, thanks :)
Lizard? The rakshi look nothing like lizards, nor are they lizards.
I didn’t imagine them that way either, but it’s not that big of a stretch. The shape of the head/back plate and the spines do look pretty lizardy. And the way their shoulders move when you turn the gear is literally how lizards’ legs work.
@@joshrobinson2409 I thought they looked like lizards.
I mean
It's a fantasy thing-
Does it really matter if people say they look like Lizards ooorr?
I like lizards :D
"to build the head of this robot, I used a burnt hot dog to provide structural support"
*MIT engineers furiously write notes*
Rahkshi was PEAK Bionicle for me. The Rahkshi-Toa fights on the basement playroom carpet were LEGENDARY.
Yeah I still have my red Rakshi somewhere, was an absolute blast when I was a kid
Truly. I was thinking maybe it’s just nostalgia but honestly I have nostalgia for all those old BIONICLEs, but the Rahkshi were just so well designed. The lizard/snake-like body, the predator split jaws on the mouth, the spikes on the spine, the spear as a weapon… it’s pure gold. SO iconic.
Idc if the sets were multiple hundreds of dollars; if Lego put out throwback bionicle sets with this level of detail, creativity, and quality, I’d buy every single one of them.
You and me both!
I wish they’d do like advance statues of Bionicle figures.
Best way I can explain this is you have the toy version. It can take a beating.
The statue version is a bit more delicate and isn't a toy but has way more detail, way more complex and made for older more experienced Lego and technic crowds.
@@unorthodoxbox Like Bionicle figures made for collectors?
IF yes, I would love that.
@@adtrlthegamer7449 Yeah. Bionicles that are more detailed and intricate and made for collectors.
I'm imaginging a more detailed Takanuva from the first film and can see an eye watering price tag but it'd look so good.
Honestly, I'd just love for even the original Bionicle to make a return at some point. I lost my entire collection do to a fire, and trying to buy them again, will cost me an arm and a leg..
Honestly, if Bionicle came back, your mix of bionicle and "normal" parts is how I'd want it. The pure Technic/Constraction designs of official bionicles always feel unfinished because there's inevitably holes that you don't use. The System bits cover it up very well!
Cheers, yeah I find the mix to be really fun
only issue is that it would cost a lot to make sets like that
@@frank_calvert It would cost a lot to make any set, no? They already make both technic and system sets, just put pieces from both in one box.
@@BackflipBrickfilms I think they're saying that these take a lot more pieces to make than "normal" bionicles and would cost a lot due to the very high piece count.
@@ilikevideogames4331 Fair point.
Every Bionicle is this man's favorite Bionicle
Yes
@@MitchBuilds I respect that
@@MitchBuilds respectable, have a nice day
Based, honestly.
LEGO needs to hire you and put you in charge of bringing back Bionicles!
I love Lego, but Bionicles will always be their best product in my eyes. I don’t have many originals anymore, because I modified them like this guy did. There were many casualties in the process of remodeling the few survivors…😂
I agree!
To be absolutely honest these things look amazing but they would absolutely not be good for kids to play with. And that's the main demographic for lego. So yeah. Don't get me wrong thia guy's creations absolutely slap.
@@BootlegGremlin also with the piece count, one would set you back a few hundred bucks 😅
As much as I would love that, I feel with Legos prices that they would way over price them and lose more money and end up like last time
the sponsor transition was so funny I'm not even gonna skip it. it feels like those out of context game theory clips lmfao
This is the first time i saw a person create bionic mechs with generic lego pieces
Thanks!
It just takes imagination, and a lot of spare parts. 😂
@@Adventist1997 And INSANE talent
Yes love dezz vids
@@williamthamrinand patience
“Let’s build a CW21” was so thrown off haha
Perfection.
It looks so much more like the nightmare slugs that appeared in the movie.
Especially the head, the movie ones had that three way split.
thank you so much for not doing the dumb youtuber meta of blurring out the end result in the thumbnail. that's such a pet peeve of mine, and it's such a breath of fresh air to just _see_ what i'm gonna be watching up front

HELL YES ANOTHER MITCHBUILDS VIDEO
Edit: I wish you could have managed to put a Kraata in there but it’s still beautiful! You should do a bohrok next!!!
Yeah that would have been a great addtion!

Thanks so much and good luck with your studies!
i love how he goes from saying the full correct names of each part to "this silver spiky bit"
The feet are so cool! Love the blend of pieces from across the years!
Cheers :)
Lego needs to sale this. I would buy it in a heartbeat.
If they did it would cost a kidney
@winniethexiping1062 then I can buy 2!
Easily the best Lego channel on TH-cam!! All your build are so creative and the editing is so satisfying 😌
Thank you so much :)
wow, i really love that custom head design.
Cheers!

Yessss I'm glad you stopped spoiling the final build at the beginning! Looks amazing as always🔥
Yeah took me long ehough eh? Thanks :)
So proud of my boy getting a sponsor‼️
Thanks!!! Huge day for the channel :)
And integration was gorgeous
S.A.N.D.A.S.

Oh this is so cool! And I love you went with such a ALIEN look for the lower jaw! It reminds me of the ELITES from HALO.

Haha thanks :)
dude this unlocked such deep memories for me, thank you for your stuff!
Dude! That's sick, Bionicle was my jam, and this brought it to life in such an awesome way! Great work!
I have no clue how Lego hasn’t hired you yet. You could single handedly bringing Bionicle back

This is a lore accurate representation of how I tought my Rahkshis looked like when I was a child, playing with them. Thank you for this video. Amazing job :D
Your videos are genius, the red Rahkshi was my first bionicle, and if you ever decide to do some of the 2006 bionicle sets I will love you!
Man, you really did all the important features justice. The spines, the split faceplate, the KNEES. Just imagine if you managed to fit a kraata somewhere in there, then it'd really be definitive.

Once again… you are secretly the creator of all my favourite Mocs I’ve seen randomly
Man i love your build style, always creative, grotesque and detailed so well, keep doing this man!
Thank you!!
Oh yeeee! Music of m childhood, this is nuts! Ao freaking cool!
Edit: also huge congrats on the sponsor! That was the smoothest sponsor segment I've ever seen!
That is uncanny how similar the head shape and mouth look to the Mask of Light film, I can remember growing up sort of just having to imagine it as it was impossible to make a movie accurate head with the parts selection back then. Great job!
that so cool man. Rahkshi was my favorite series, you make it greater than before.
Rahkshi have always been my favorite Bionicle. You did an amazing job with this one!
I check every day for new vids from mitch and holy cow this one was fantastic as usual! never fails to blow my mind
Glad you enjoy it!
Beautiful. New video, i hwve been waiting all month for this to drop. Love this editing style, keep it up 👍
Thanks so much! More to come :)
Love this build it looks a lot like how the mask of light versions looked, with their heads opening up and just she sheer size of it.
Truly inspiring. I need to get some ccbs and technic stuff next time I order parts. I usually build stuff that I feel like could have come in canisters back in the day, but man, if I had this as a kid, it would've been my favorite toy
I love to see these characters that you have build with your own style and I'd love to see Brutaka, Vezon and/or Kardas dragon get the spotlight sometime. Love your vids btw. Keep up the good work.
Dexter's lab, Radio Shack, Metal Arm Glitch in the system and Bionicle are what made me love robots.
The Segue into the ad was crazy good, well done!
This is amazing. Lego needs to get you a contract for a Rahkshi line revival!!
I would have thought the ankles would need more support, but it seems to have worked well. I guess that's what the friction extenders are for? I also love how the extra teeth assemblies mean the head can split open, like they did in the Mask of Light movie.
This video gave me so much nostalgia. My favorite bionicle was Krika from the 2008 mistika series. He was like a white insect creature with red accents. It would be awesome to see an updated version of him
I cannot believe you do this as a job, my kid-self is sooo jealous and in awe of you, that's awesome
I love your mix of old and new bionicle!
I have no relationship with Bionicle but man do I love these videos! Keep up the good work dude they keep getting better
Im 40 seconds in and I already respect the hell out of this build- a fine use of all kinda lego. I tip my hat to you sir
My favourite villain built by my favourite builder. Can I ask for better?
You are a legend my friend! ❤
Alongsode The Toa Metru, the Rahkshi were my favorite set of Bionicle. I enjoyed em all, but those two sets were my all time top
The film accurate rakshi. I love it! Tried to make one back in the day
All of your builds are amazing. I agree with another commenter I saw: Lego should hire you. I’d love to see your stuff turned into official sets.
You're the type of Lego builder I aspire to be, I love your channel and I love your creations! :D
Maan these are all fantastic! I hope one day you take on the challenge of remaking Kardas, one of my all time favourite combo sets that deserves the MitchBuilds treatment!
Love the builds! Your video structure is a pretty clear copy of Adam from north of the border, but you put your own twist on it and I love anything Lego so it’s a welcome overlap, keep up the good work!
Cheers! North of the boarder is a big inspo forsure, amongst others like studson studios (great channel if you haven’t checked them out)
It is good day when MitchBuilds uploads
this is so cool!!!, really love the arms and the torso
Out of all the Biological villains. Only the Rahkshi are worthy of my respect!!! What???
It’s magnificent but in my opinion what could make it better was to make the tail longer in my opinion but it’s very cool and sick to see
You weren’t messing around cuz this looks absolutely “INCREDIBLE” 😮😮😮 love the channel, builds, and content. Keep this AWESOME stuff coming 🙏✌️
This is sick. The one thing I would've changed is keeping the orginal head as the top jaw, but I can understand if it was too small for this build.
By FAR my most favorite Bionicle villain type 🤩, and let me say, you've done this an absolute justice and then some! Let's be honest, the Toa Nuva would have stood NO chance against this beasty boy 😈
What I wouldn't give to see a full lineup of all 6 of them!
Would be very cool to see, that's for sure
@@MitchBuilds I should have asked in my initial comment, but how much inspiration did you get from the Bionicle: Mask of Light movie? This looks like a pretty spot on build of the movie version of the Rahkshi! 💯

I've loved all of your reimagined sets, but this one is the best. The absolute best looking villains IMO. After them would be the Bohrok (love them rollie pollies), Vahki and Visorak.
A parts list for this build would be fantastic, but thats gotta be so much work to compile.
Your builds are always so fun and satisfying to see come together, keep it up man!
I absolutely love how bug-like you made the rahkashi look
Congrats on getting a sponsor, and that Rahkshi is just so sick!
