Why styles/themes would you like to see in sets?

By themes I mean like how Barraki/Mahri was underwater, Phantoka was in the sky.

By style, I mean characters' and sets' appearance, like how Visorak are bugs and Pirakas used the rubber spine thing, which is pretty unique.

I'd like to see some more Rahi sets. We really didn't get very many past the original Nui Jagas and others from the really early series. It would be a nice change in design style to get a four legged creature besides all the humanoid characters we have. I had thought it would be cool to have a canister wave if being just different sorts of Rahi though those are usually reserved for major characters.

On Faber's blog, he showed a concept of Metru Nui being an underground city, as if it was in a cave.

 

That would be cool. More Rahi sets would be nice, too. And I don't mean Hydruka minifigs. Or Rahi titans that become 'enlarged' versions of their species like every Rahi titan past 2006 (original Greg is original). Canister-sized Rahi would be very interesting.

As far as style goes, I'd like a return to more detailed pieces. There can still be sets with the more streamlined Hero Factory style, but I've always thought the highly-detailed pieces really made Bionicle stand out. It makes sets look more...well, not "realistic," but believable in the context of their universe. This line of thought comes from something I read about the models used in the original Star Wars movies: the more minute details the designers added to them, the more convincing they looked on camera.

Knight-Based sets. That way we could get ordinary Toa sets with them wielding different weapons such as Maces, Swords, Bows and other things, and if this was the Toa Nuva we could have a titan set with Takanuva on a rahi mount or something which would be amazing.

I'm not sure how a knight-based theme would work tbh. :P

 

I would like to see Bota Magna explored and some Mayna influences there. Maybe a prisonbreak side-story?

What else what else...

Oh oh oh maybe a theme in the core of SM where the EP originated from? I'md imagine to see some gnarly monsters down there.

because it still be cursin' like a sailor is why. :b

 

anyway,

 

I'd like to see some more animal-inspired monstrosities like the Barraki. Just that sort of creepy eeriness would be nice. Whether it be actual Rahi or characters, I just want more weird stuff like that.

 

Yes, all for this. The Barraki and Makuta were my favorites theme-wise. because who's gonna walk down a toy aisle and not immediately run for the one that glows and is shaped like a crustacean?

I'd like it to be Incan themed, stylistically. The Mask of Creation kind of looks that way anyway, so maybe I'm an oracle this has already been integrated into the 2015 plans.

A flying city theme would be amazing. Maybe a lost world theme, with deadly Rahi and forgotten civilizations, or an extradimensional theme.

As for designs, I hope they bring back sets with the squishy organic-ness of the Barraki.

I would like to see another Underwater theme, like the Mahri and Barraki because I thought that was a really good year for BIONICLE and I'd love to see that theme resurrected for the new BIONICLE
