Voxumo Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 I must say i am not very impressed. Yes it is the ultimate collectors piece but i feel ever since you started collecting for it you have practically bragged about it which just puts me off.. However here is my question. How do we know you actually took that picture and just did not take it off of some various site and what not? Pictures can easily be faked and stolen. 3 Banner made by Onaku BZPRPG CHARACTERS Syvra-Tivanu If you interact with one of my characters and I don't respond or acknowledge the interaction within a day, send me a PM.

I didn't for sure have it secured yet so I was doing everything I could to get it. You can tell it's mine because that is my solid gold hau and the display in the picture, but if you don't believe me, you will soon enough, this us just the teaser topic after all.

Great Being Velika Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 (edited) OMG!!! It's amazing! I visit the old owner's store pretty frequently and he told me that someone was pretty close to buying it, but I didn't know it was you. He posted on facebook that he would be displaying it at his store before he sold it yesterday, but I was out of town. On topic, That is completely amazing that you have it, and my most true congratulations on sticking to your ambition and fulfilling your goal of buying that mask. I hope you treasure it for years to come. Edited February 18, 2014 by Great Being Velika I like BZP so much, I named my Minecraft account Dimensioneer.

Pupwa21 Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Do you mind if you took a pic of the back? Just want to see its glory from all possible angles.

Kopekemaster Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 (edited) I'm just waiting for LEGO to see this and be like "Oh, you wanted a complete collection? Well, we have a Tuyet set, but only one was made, and we get to keep it. Oh, you want it? Uh, nope." Congrats, though. Great to see that you stuck with your goal and have seen it completed. also i'd just like to point out that the news article described the mask as being "of the character Avohkii"XD I noticed that too.

There are actually five Avohkii masks besides the Platinum one. 2003 Takanuva came with a gold mask and a sparkling crystal mask, Makuta came with silver masks, 2008 Takanuva had a large grey mask, and 2010 Takanuva had his own silver mask.

How do we know you actually took that picture and just did not take it off of some various site and what not? Pictures can easily be faked and stolen. I think I have to agree with this guy, I don't think that you could have made 15,000$ from selling your Bionicle collection that fast.

Also the gold Hau really means nothing to me, even if it is another one time only thing, you could always have made your own, or photo shopped it in !!!. This really turns me off, what is an 20 year old doing buying a mask for $15,000? You would think that someone that old would spend their money more wisely. "Copy and paste me into your sig!

This really turns me off, what is an 20 year old doing buying a mask for $15,000? You would think that someone that old would spend their money more wisely.Well, like i said, you'll believe it is me and that i really own it once you see my video, and if you don't then that is fine as well. You can't replicate something like that, not just for the mask, but for the documents, the cases, and the history. I got my SGH from a guy named Phillip, who got it from Kelly, the original BZP Creator and editor. the PA has all the correct items to come with it as well, and like i said, i didn't mean to brag about my getting the PA, i was just trying to advertise my Topic so that people would be more interested in helping out my cause, and getting some of the Bionicle Items that they wanted as well, i saw it as beneficial to both parties. Also about the 15K and my age, Not all 15K came from Selling my Bionicle collection. I got some money from my Tax Return, setting aside some spare funds, and selling other Non-Bionicle related items i had no use for any longer. I am already doing almost everything i want to do with my life currently, I love Teaching Parkour and Freerunning, my Current job as an Auto Glass tech isn't bad, But I'm working towards just teaching full time, and besides, I got a good amount of money from selling my collection to help fund this project, luckily for the both of us, It's my money and i wanted it bad enough that i was willing to pay the price for it. If you think it was a bad decision, that is completely fine, and it is your opinion, but i don't think you should be judging me for my decisions when you know nothing of my personal life or the way i view my goals. Please don't take offense or get mad, it is just my opinion as well But like i said, after my video is done and uploaded. you will see i have provided the correct information proving that i am the owner of the real and official Platinum Avohkii and the Solid Gold Hau, and if the video isn't enough, then you'll just have to come see my Bionicle Gallery in a few years to believe me! Thanks again guys! I couldn't have done it without you!MC PS: In the article where it says the "of the character Avohkii" The write of the article asked me what the item was officially called, i told him "The Bionicle Platinum Kanohi Avohkii, The Mask Of Light" So yeah, but on the plus side, i will be posting pictures with everything I got along with some other goodies as well, so Stay tuned!
