Boidoh Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 How stable is he? As in, does he fall over easily, seeing as his feet are two of those hand pieces? I will buy the parts to build him(besides the Hau, THE HAU IS ON DAXIA!!!), since that is way cheaper. Now I want to know how stable is he? Does he fall over a lot? 3 Quote Add me on 3DS: 0516-7750-0068Add me on Wii U: Boidoh "I am Lloyd Garmadon, son of Lord Garmadon." - Lloyd, Episode 4: Never Trust a Snake"I am Lloyd Garmadon, son of Lord Garmadon." - Lloyd, Episode 44: Corridor of EldersLike, Comment, And Subscribe for Nintendo Content - NinBoidoh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuuli Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 He can if you don't know how to pose your turaga but also you can use his staff to help him stand. Also scroo daxia what about the red star? Ooooo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boidoh Posted September 28, 2014 Author Share Posted September 28, 2014 Lhikan's Hau, which was given to Jaller, who replaced his Kanohi on Karzahni, which was found by Gali after decimating the entire realm with a nova blast, which was given to Tahu, who left the mask on Daxia, is on Daxia... The red star probably gave him some other random kanohi, of which Gregory doesn't want to share...

Master Inika Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 I have the set, and he can stand reasonable well using his staff, but you have to hunch him over a little bit.

Tuuli Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 But clearly in the set he has his old hau back. What, can nothing be right in the story unless "Greg" says so? I got a story for you.

I got a story for you. Greg isn't doing Bionicle 2015. Where is your Greg now? The set is from when he was alive, though. It's his/her choice if he wants his/her sets to be story-accurate. Greg still did B1 even if he's not doing B2. Edited September 28, 2014 by Toa of Gallifrey 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got a story for you. Greg isn't doing Bionicle 2015. Where is your Greg now?It is obviously from when he is alive, because the old Hau is on DAXIA... And yes, nothing can be right in the story unless "Greg" says so. And even if Greg isn't going BIONICLE 2015, whoever is in charge of the story will be the new 'Greg'. Plus, in 2001 Greg wasn't anything but the person writing the comics, then after around 2004 he started writing the novels and comics, until his every word became canon. So even if he isn't doing anything now, that wont stop him from doing so in the future. He even said that he doesn't know who will write the novels for BIONICLE 2015.

Art Vandelay Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 All. For a set as insignificant as Gold Good Guy, 100% canonical authenticity seems trivial, especially when it was canonized as Turaga Lhikan by Greg saying "Sure, go ahead." You're not going to find out what mask he's wearing on the RS, if any, so just use your imagination. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Element Lord of Milk Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Why not get the Hau? Then you could have a pre-dead Turaga Lhikan. He would look super ugly without it too since his head is just a y-joint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boidoh Posted September 28, 2014 Author Share Posted September 28, 2014 (edited) I know, like Kazi. I'll add some other mask. Plus, the seller on BrickLink did not have the Lhikan Hau in his store, and I already have a yellow Hau, which I bought to be fore all intents and purposes to be Lhikan's Hau.

Shadow Destroyer Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 I will buy the parts to build him(besides the Hau, THE HAU IS ON DAXIA!!!), since that is way cheaper.

Lyichir Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 Wait, so why do promo sets have such limited parts?Because they're often released free or at a low price, and in a limited release. Making recolors or new molds for a set that can't possibly make any profits and is only available in specially-marked packs of batteries would be stupid. So would making the sets larger than they have to be to offer a taste of the building system.
