The Gang's All Here

I just happened to notice the other day that, with the exception of Vorox, the only 2009 sets I have are the heroes of the movie:

Interestingly, these (plus Vorox) are the sets from last year that come with the most recolored pieces. Which is a self-proclaimed trend in my taste, but it's interesting to see that Lego apparently feels similarly, by making these ones front-and-center in The Legend Reborn. Hmm.

 

Still looking to get Strakk and Metus. I'll check in on my Target later this week and see if they still have any; if not, I'll prolly just order them from Shop @Home, since they're on sale... But then, I also want to get little!Skrall over break, and there are other things I need to spend money on too, so we'll see how that all works out.

I think it had more to do with Mata Nui being the main character, Ackar at the front because red sells the best, and Kiina because they probably wanted a female somewhere in the front, for the sake of equality (I guess). As for Berix and Gresh, I dunno. But Gresh is my favorite canister set of the year, so I can accept it. :P

I tried making Kiina pilot the Thornatus, with Ackar on the back and Mata Nui on the front, but Kiina hardly fits and Mata Nui obstructs her view...

 

I <3 the 2009 sets. I hope I can grab Gresh and Skrall while they're on sale on Legoshop, and maybe Malum and Metus while I'm at it...

My Target finally sold out of Strakks two or three days ago. We had half a shelf of just him.

 

But, he was on clearance! So if you find him, he might be down to 9.99. That's what he was here.
