These are known to Matoran as 'Imperial Cargo - Motorised Transport' vehicles. The members of the IC refer to them as 'Inner Circle - Militarised Transport' vehicles, either way this is one monster you don’t want to get in the way of...
About this creation
After years of secret studies on electronics and engines, the Inner Circle has developed its first tank-like vehicle. Driven by specially chosen Matoran the IC - M Transport vehicle can be manoeuvred through most terrain, whether it be ice, mud, sand or dirt. Cargo will almost always get to where it's going.
Both speed and armour makes this vehicle respected by all who see it. Some Matoran have even been tempted to learn about 'Alethias' (a fake God made up by the Inner Circle to gain followers) when seeing the success of the IC - M Transport.
Numerous trade routes have been attacked by Toa to cut off the supplies to the IC. All have failed either because the Transport was fast enough to escape the ambush or strong enough to break through any obstacles put before it. That and the fact that Toa are too scared to get in the way :P
The Matoran that drive them all wear the same helmet, both to hide their identity, protect themselves from incoming fire and to show how high a rank they are. If you see a Matoran with one of those helmets on you are expected to show upmost respect. They are, after all, responsible for everything the others own, eat and wear.
Helmets are awarded to Matoran by a member of the IC. Because of the dangers involved with the job there is usually a large celebration on the Matorans first day on the job (think of a celebration on the day troops go to war).
The IC - M Transport uses a simple yet hardy cargo hold design.
(Some pics of how to open the cargo hold):
(It's actually really fun opening and closing the cargo hold. It makes a satisfying 'click, click' when you do...)
The 'shell' at the front also lifts up so you can get to the controls of the motors:
Spiked 'all terrain' treads:
Well armoured cargo hold:
This is a fellow IC - M Transport driver, helping out with unloading:
And the driver, also unloading the cargo:
Among the goods are more drivers’ masks and other equipment:
A quick experiment on a drone scout (decided not to add it with the rest because it's a little bit to advanced):
And some last pics of all of them together:
Unloading cargo:
Hope you all enjoyed looking at my MOC!

Very nice, if you don't mind my asking, how many of the Scorpio treds did you use for it because I'm making something of a mega moc with the same ones and they tend to run out very fast
I used 44 tread pieces in each side - 88 all up, hope this helps :) And good luck with your Moc! |

Wow, it's huge! And motorized too? I wish I had this level of building skill with Bionicle vehicles. |

Awesome MOC. You got a really great steampunkish look. The build is amazing and is great to see some functionality in Bionicle MOCs, remember me of the old times. |

Brilliant. It looks very medieval and perhaps a bit steampunk. (Medieval steam-engined vehicle?) Can't really say anything constructive =) |
