Rebuilding My Collection: The Journey Begins!

Hey all, hope you've had a great weekend.

So I decided that I'm going re-build my Bionicle collection from the ground up. Many sets are in pieces in my upper closet, I'm in the process of cleaning them one by one and rebuilding what I have on me. I'm going to have to buy new pieces for many of the sets due to their parts vanishing into the void.

Another thing is repairing broken pieces to my existing sets or ordering entirely new parts for those. Glatorian Mata Nui, poor guy fell off my TV I don't know how many times and his arms be wiggly!

Some sets that I owned vanished completely with the exception of a few parts. So, hunting for an entire set(s) is the third duty.

So, how do I start this giant journey? I had so many, so there's gotta be some prioritization.
 

I'm gonna start this journey by following my number one rule I've gone by when I was younger:

So before I start off with any other sets that were in my collection, I'm gonna make the Ga-Toa/Matoran,  and other "Blue character" sets I owned a priority first lol.

Nokama, Kahgarak, Gaaki, etc.

I started off with Toa Inika Hahli because she was the first one (that I can recall)  that vanished off the face of the Earth completely (with an exception of her one armor piece I used for my MOC, I'll have to put that on the new one I suppose). I recall many other Bionicle sets of mine have either vanished in Public Storage or in a hotel I stayed at for a while.
 

After I take care of Step One: "Blue"... (da ba dee)

.. then I'll gonna restore the entire Barraki (After Takadox). They were the only villains that I ever had a complete collection of (and also my favorites!). I know for sure I had like, two Mantax as a kid, so I should have spare parts haha.

I'll update again soon.

I'm gonna need this back, old MOC 'o mine....

Cheers!
