I recently got Legends 10: Swamp of Secrets and I will say it's a good book. Not exactly my favorite of the books but worth the read
I wouldn't say its a spoiler to reveal there is basically two stories going on in this book. It's interesting how it flows between the two stories but the final result feels like a book that's half as long as it should be and we only get a few fights and some secrets revealed. I believe both stories had the ability to carry two books, and had thy not been cramme
Well apperently the blog I made yesterday didnt get through, basically it was a rant about the new sets being the horribly deformed offspring of a rahkshi and a visorak. But I will never complain again about a bionicle set ( ok at least not fot a while, not after I saw this....

I finally chose the people that would be part of my podcast team today.
I opened up the poll where people can vote on what to name the podcast
I think I have 50 PMs in my mail box
I may haven broken BZP in the process
I haven't been this excited about...anything in a long time.
Here's hoping you'll be listening when its all said and done.
It looks like ToyWiz has the Mistika on pre-order
Now usually I would never suggest ordering from Toywiz as they have a tenancy to raise the price.
Interestingly enough they have all the Mistika available for $11.99, same price as the Phantoka, which is a dollar less then the price being shown at Toy Fair. So does this mean there may not be a price raise, did ToyWiz just not get the memo?
But of your one of those that have to get the new sets as soon as possible, you may want to check
I GOT A NEW LAPTOP!!! But the keyboard is a little different so if my writing is a little messy please bear with me till I get used to it.
I just got finished watching LoMN and thought of something, where's the vahi? Last time I checked Tahu Nuva had it, and isn't Tahu's mask hanging on a wall in the Piraka stronghold? So while the Piraka are off fighting the Inika there is a mask that is nearly as powerfull, if not as powerfull, as the Mask of Life they want so much hanging in their li
WAAAHH!!!! I've seen some crazy fuzzy pics of the Mahri..basically just enuff to make out names...WAAAHH!!! The descriptions sound good though, just when I thought I might get out of bionicle, they pull me back in!!
Please do not misuse the Spoiler Tags.

EDIT: Sorry, figured with all the stuff going around about the pics I should put them in tags.
EDIT...AGAIN: OK so I've seen cleaner picks...and they look scarier than the Barraki...in a bad way. And what happened to the bl
I keep having this itching fear about the future of Bionicle. I remeber Greg saying that they needed to come out with a new set of toa every year, since they sell the best, but this leads to a problem when you have one set of Toa that are suppose to be the main characters. I forsee a repeating pattern of the Toa Nuva going to a new island in search for Mata-Nui, then they find other toa (or make new one's as the case this year, but we have to run out of Mata Nui matoran to transform after a whil
Warning, the following blog may contain spoilers, random theories, and science.
OK, many people have been wondering if the Inika will transform in some way, and I say they have to. We know from Scholastic that the next place they go may be underwater (Power Play seems to suggest the part of Voya Nui that sunk into the sea), and what do the inika all have in common? lightning. What happens when you mix an underwater world with lightning? bad things. If everytime the Inika try to use their elem
So I'll try to keep out any spoilers and just tell you that Bionicle Legends 11 is an amazing book. Maybe just for the ending though. It's got some great battles but they don't seem to quite come across in print, even becoming slightly hard to follow at some points. Though the character interaction more than makes up for it between both the heroes and the villians. There's a bit of flying macguffin that seems to show up just to clean up the plot, though I'm not sure how you would have done it ot
Spoilers for stuff here, and a rant or two...so you might want to stop reading now.
So now that BZP has ran the story about the Mahri names I think I can talk about them comfortably.
I am not amused.

You know what? Today is a good day. Do you know why today is a good day? Because I believe it is. And I believe today is a good day for you too. That's all it takes, beleive that it is good and it will be.
"Look for the light and you will find it in yourself, don't look and only find darkness"
Dude, I just realized that the Mask of light spinner thing goes in the opposite direction as the other masks, and I think every 5th spin of Vakama's mask is faster....
Two matoran walk up to a protodermis pub. One says to the other "Hey what happened to your mask?", the other matoran answers back "I got attacked by a rahi". The first matoran answers back "And here I thought you were just ugly"

should I do it?
should I take the plunge?
Should I follow my dream?
Should I risk it all blowing up in my face?
Should I face the fear of failure?
Should I go out in a blaze of glory?
Why Shouldn't I?
It's time for one of my theories..so sit back, relax, and enjoy the crazy.
It's actually an idea I had a long time ago, but due to recent evidence it just seems to get more and more true.
I'm just going to go ahead and say it, that way you wont have to read.
The Great Beings are people. Like you and me.
Now for those of you still here I'll try and clarify it.
When the mystery of the Great Beings first came about it more or less just hit me. What would be the perfect creator of the
Yah.....
and thats all I'm going to say about that (at least until we are allowed to)
EDIT: Now with twice the judgement
Im just going to go ahead and use spoiler tags for all of this, in case no one even wants to have the new sets vividly described to them
First of all, lets just look at the sets

You know what would make a great birthday present for BZP? an RSS feed for the main page for the news section.
For those of you that don't know, an RSS feed is a little function that allows you to quickly load news stories from websites without loading the entire site.
So Bink, get on that.
I mean....please ol great and honorable Binkmeister grant one of your humble disciples a small request on this most happy of times....please
Actually now that I think of it I have no idea how
so now that I've started seeing Agori popping up on shelves I guess 2009 has begun for Bionicle anyway.
2008 was a great year, one of the best. Lets see if 2009 can beat it. I like the idea that we are going back to the "super advanced robots living as villagers in simple society" thing like in 2001. There's something about that contrast I always loved.
I've seen all the new sets (even some I shouldn't have) and I like them all quite alot. That being said I probably won't be buying any th
I just started auditions for the new BZPowercast (though currently looking for a new name) that I've been talking about.
Go HERE, read the rules and be sure to send in your sound clips so we can get this thing going, I wouldn't be able to do it without you.
So now onto my next crazy theory, the Great Spirit Mata Nui himself.
I have a theory that seems to come more from Transformers then Bionicle...but it might work.
Mata Nui's body is literally the world under the great sea. Think of it kinda like Unicron or actually Primus from Transformers.
That is why the island of Voya Nui had to be returned to help revive him, it was part of him, thats why the Staff had ot be used to repair the world, to repair Mata Nui. That is why the core needed to
You know what holds Bionicle back the most?
The sets.
I say that after catching up on bioniclestory.com. Those stories are amazing (though the biocast has all the production values of a elementary school play) and while I know most of my glee from it is pure fandom (Toa Hagah? Yes please) I know that's also because the story is free to just be a story. There is no need to try and explain a whole set of new characters every six months, they can just have new characters when they want to.
no, this is not about a boat, or movies about ancient Greeks, it's about this years Titans sets. The main three anyway.
Titans have always had a special place in my heart. To me they seemed to be amde just for the fans. While the cans and smaller sets were designed to atrack the casual buyer, the titans were designed for the peolpe that were already fans of the toy line. But enough of that, on to the review
First we will start with Axxon. Your going to hear this alot with these titans but
I vote we start calling the water planet Mata Nui crashed on Ocea Magna
the barren desert planet is called Barra Magna so Ocea Magna just sounds about right
Well, thanks to the birthday money I recently recieved I am now a premier member and thus have a spiffy new blog to paly with. This make's my third or forth blog but I've never really had a blog where I really thought I could talk about bionicle or many of my other toy time thoughts. So mostly this blog will be about bionicle, but if I occasionaly start talking about Optimus Prime or why Robot Chicken is the best show ever, I hope you will understand...
I'll do a true new blog soon, but righ
Well now that BZP has released the pics for the some of the new sets I feel free to talk about them.
I'm just going to be talking about the new titans here, I never really cared much for the construction sets.
Aright lets start with Maxilos & Spinaz. I like this set alot. From what I've seen of Maxilos he looks well designed and is probably the only set where I think that new rocket launcher thing actually works. Plus we get Spinaz who is about as complicated as a toa, but the parts
