This was a topic back then in bzpower, but I haven't seen it here, so I guess I'll bring it back. (if it was closed for a reason previously, I can't find that out because whatever links that remain don't work). So where have you seen BIONICLE sets in other media?

 

I guess the most recent one mostly everyone knows is the episode "To the Lighthouse" from Terminator: The Sarah Conner Chronicles.

I remember that there was a mention in a Maximum Ride book. "Look Iggy, they have a room full of legos and bionicle!"

That made me so happy! The guy even got some of the trivia right!

 

Let's see, I was reading an old Ultimate Spider-Man comic book and Spidey KO's this cyborg dude and he says something like, "OK, let's open this Bionicle up..." That made me happy too! :D

I remember seeing a Vahki in this one movie a while ago...trying to remember the name. I remember that scene had a group of dwarves entering into a modern boy's room...this sounds really weird, I'm going to have to look this up. I think it was that one with that huge cloud dog thing the boy befriends.

But that scene used 2009 sets. I guess BS01 didn't exist in that universe.

Oh and also in Divine Design, Candace remakes this boys room into something cooler than he had before. In the showing of the before, I saw a cool big poster of Kalmah there.

Probably going to tell how old I am here, but...

 

I forget what episode, but in "That's so Raven," Corey has some Bionicle canisters sitting on a shelf, I think of Gali and Tahu. Haven't seen the show in years. And then on this one channel, some talk show host guy asked "where are my Bionicles?" And then there was a movie sometime back that had some of the figures in them. I want to say it was the remake of "The Day the Earth Stood Still," but I might be so wrong. It might have come out the same year as that movie did. And I wanna say it was the Rahkshi that were featured, but again, it's been so long since I've seen much of anything. I'm lucky I even remember and of it.

 

(on an off note, I personally don't refer to the toys as "Bionicles" and as "Bionicle figures" or "Bionicle toys," so to those who don't like referring to the toys as the former, please don't get mad at me as I refer to them as the latter two terms)

well, it was the second movie, I'm pretty sure. and Gali is pretty foggy, I only saw it because someone paused it and I like to scan over the screen when it's paused, so...

In the same show, Dewey calls Gali 'Megeman' due to copyright.



Also in an episode of 'Friends', there is a Mata combiner on a table.
