   Hi all,

This MOC started as an attempt to make a car using the Nuhvok canopy. I realised early on that I was just surrounding the canopy with regular bricks when there were plenty of other interesting parts from the Nuhvok lying around too. So I ditched the first attempt and started again.

As I built I realised the transforming possibilities of these parts, and I’ve been thinking about building a transforming model, what with all the other great ones popping up lately. I was also inspired by Purple Dave to look at my Bionicle bin a bit more closely.

The end result came together relatively quickly for me (one evening’s building) and I’m pretty pleased with it, so I present for your perusal the Nohvok-Ka transforming car/biomecha.

Enjoy, and as usual PLMKWYT.

LEGO > Racers
so much while still being able to pull off the transformation.

Keep up the great work!
