Wow. Most of the upcoming Mixels seem rather disappointing.

I'm not gonna lie. This is really underwhelming for a UCS set, especially after the SHIELD Helicarrier was revealed ~2 weeks ago.

It looks like the Mixels are back in stock.

I guess I'm buying a million separate orders in March.

Sweeeet. I've been waiting for an official announcement on a Helicarrer set. Can't wait to get it! Which is why the said it would cost an arm and a leg. The US price is right there in the teaser and the rest of them are in the press release:

Toa Mata Lewa followed shortly by Toa Mata Kopaka. I don't remember the rest of the order though.

Either way it will be in a color that most people haven't owned before!

I wonder when the US will get this promotion and how much you would have to spend to get it online. I guess I'd just buy some Protectors.

Since when was Pohatu all dark and grim? It was nice to see that skeletal hand at the end of it arc!

Where are Daphne and Velma?!?

Just saw the new wave at Target and decided to get one from each of the tribes. I can tell you right now that, aside from Vampos (as revealed in the BZP review), Flamzer definitely comes with one of the Nixels. UPDATE: Rokit has the third Nixel. Lucky me!

You're not really modding the parts. It's considered more of a "repair" since you're just replenishing layers of plastic/acrylic to help tighten the joints and increase friction.

Aside from given them articulated fingers, I've tweaked most of them. - Gali and Kopaka are untouched - Modded Lewa so that he has full movement in his neck/head - Still tweaking Tahu. I wanted to make some changes to his legs because they look pretty bad, bland, and extremely hollow in the back. >>> Removed one pair of extensions on his legs (the ones that connect to his hips) >>> I used this Chima piece I found online to replace the gold armor on his shoulders and hips: http://brickset.com/parts/6075042 >>> Took one pair of these (http://brickset.com/parts/design-19087) and added them to the front on his shins. >>> I plan to fill out the cavities behind his shins with either red or trans orange shells Doing a configuration similar to Metalbeard's hand to give Onua claws. I'm still waiting for the parts, but here's what Metalbeard's hand looks like on Onua's arm. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Xia-Nui/Bionicle-Pics/onua_prototype.jpg Still messing around with Pohatu. I couldn't find a way to replicate his original geared kick/bottom heaviness without the design looking atrocious. http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=6214042

If the friction pin's lose, just brush on a few layers of this stuff (wait 24 hours in between each application). Ah-mazing. Wait 24 hours for the final coat the fully cure and it'll be super durable.
