Turaga Dlakii Posted August 21, 2008 Hear, hear. They'll be really lucky if I buy at least one set next year. And I have no idea what the deal is yet. Quote Link to comment
Shurtgal Posted August 21, 2008 Would this be a bad time to say I like them They're not that bad :/ ~Shurt Quote Link to comment
Phyoohrii Posted August 21, 2008 I would elaborate my thoughts, but I can't. Rightly so probably, there might be lots of hateful words thrown around if that wasn't so. Quote Link to comment

Shurtgal Posted August 21, 2008 So they're a little different? Whats wrong with difference? yes, some of them are awful But most of them are good ~Shurt Quote Link to comment
Phyoohrii Posted August 21, 2008 It's a mix of aspects that are too different and aspects that are not different enough. And besides, I never said the sets were bad. But the theme my as well have a different name. Would actually make sense, really, considering the shift. :/ Quote Link to comment
Nara Posted August 21, 2008 I agree. With Shurtgal. They acctually have 2009 Set Spoiler Removed. -Nara! I could use those pieces. and, they use enough 2009 Set Spoiler Removed. -Nara to still look like BIONICLE. Of, corse, they use lots of 2009 Set Spoiler Removed. -Nara, but in a creative way. I like 'em. They aren't that bad. Cept' 2009 Set Spoiler Removed. -Nara, a Titan. I HATE him. Quote Link to comment
Phyoohrii Posted August 21, 2008 I suspect there are ways where not only they could have kept similar BIONICLE-esque-ness but also a nice totally new look which I would have accepted. But I believe they've accomplished neither. The wrong things were kept, and anything new just doesn't feel like it belongs to me. But hey, LEGO will succeed in this, and what I say will matter little. Clearly so far the general concensus has been good towards them. As I said in another blog entry, the roles have interchanged, cause usually I'm one of the few that likes the sets at first glance. Well, that's not entirely true. Quote Link to comment
Xaeraz Posted August 21, 2008 I hated thr mistika at first, and now I love them. Hopefully you'll come around to these new sets. Plus, there's alway Summer, too. Quote Link to comment
Bundalings Posted August 21, 2008 Funny, I'm absolutely in love with them. They seem more "Bionicle" to me than anything since 2003. BtB Quote Link to comment
Black Storm Posted August 23, 2008 Xaeras, for us, THAT is Summer. The later year sets are Winter sets, technically. Some people like them, some don't. I don't like more than a few things with them, really. I was hoping we'd go back to the 2001 feel, but I suppose not. I mean, new setting and all... Why not bring back some of the old ideas?

MayFall Posted August 25, 2008 I was hoping we'd go back to the 2001 feel, but I suppose not. I mean, new setting and all... Why not bring back some of the old ideas? Hear hear. But really they aren't all that bad. They do bring back a bunch of stuff that should have not returned, but the new editions are pretty cool. Quote Link to comment
Phyoohrii Posted August 26, 2008 As cool as they may be, it doesn't mean that feel like BIONICLE. Quote Link to comment
MayFall Posted August 28, 2008 True enough, I suppose. But that being said, you can't really judge all future set. Who knows, they may improve in the future. Quote Link to comment
Phyoohrii Posted August 28, 2008 They might. But why jump back on once you've jumped off? Quote Link to comment
MayFall Posted August 30, 2008 But wouldn't you stick around if you still like the story? Quote Link to comment
Phyoohrii Posted August 31, 2008 Mmm...I'm not so confident about what I've heard about the story, either, but I have to reserve my judgement, since I and all of us have heard so little. Quote Link to comment
MayFall Posted August 31, 2008 Yeah, I'm slightly apprehensive on that subject myself, to be quite honest. Have to wait and see though, like you said. Quote Link to comment
