  1. Mine was Lewa Mata. I almost immediately ripped off the plastic cover to see all the pictures that were revealed when you spun the can. Kinda regret that now. And that was followed pretty quickly by the rest of the Toa.

    Quick Idea

    I vote we start calling the water planet Mata Nui crashed on Ocea Magna the barren desert planet is called Barra Magna so Ocea Magna just sounds about right
  3. so now that I've started seeing Agori popping up on shelves I guess 2009 has begun for Bionicle anyway. 2008 was a great year, one of the best. Lets see if 2009 can beat it. I like the idea that we are going back to the "super advanced robots living as villagers in simple society" thing like in 2001. There's something about that contrast I always loved. I've seen all the new sets (even some I shouldn't have) and I like them all quite alot. That being said I probably won't be buying any this year. I decided last year that I came in with Tahu and the gang and it seemed fitting that I stop with them too. My money keeps going else where like gas and school and I'm sure my girlfriend will love me buying her a meal once in awhile instead of buying "those rainbow colored robots". Plus I found my self more and more getting into the story and less into the sets. I'm more excited now to get the next book than the next canister. Those toys will always be a part of my life and I'm sure I'll be digging them out and playing with them for years to come. But I think 50 toa are enough for any man. But enough about that lets go onto the wild theories I have about 2009. Just hit the fancy spoiler tags » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «The theory going around about Bara Magna having a crashed Great Spirit robot makes alot of sense. I would guess all the current inhabitants of Bara Magna are the survivors of the crash. The scarcity of resource comes from there being basically none on that planet except what came in the Great Spirit. Now it's possible this Great Spirit was a either an earlier model of Mata Nui. This is supported by the idea that the Agori are early versions of Matoran. And it would explain why Mata Nui would come there (I have money riding on Mata Nui being the question mark on the Bara Magna). Wouldn't that just be Mata Nui's luck if he ran to his older brother when he was in trouble on to find that brother in worse shape then he's in? My crazy idea though that has no basis in fact and proof though is that maybe that wrecked robot is what happens when you let a Makuta behind the wheel. Could it be that we've jumped ahead in time a few thousand years. We've seen it before where matoran have devolved and forgotten where they came from, and that was after only 1,000 years. just imagine how far they could fall after 100,000 with no great spirit to guide them. Of course this would mean there's a different reason for Mata Nui to arrive on Bara Magna. He's returned just as he said to clean up the mess. I wonder what the Great Beings think of all this as they look down from their little red star. Have two of their greatest creations failed them? Of course it sounds like they have bigger problems to worry about as well Of course my little theories tend to be way off so dont expect much out of them. I remember the first big one I had way back when the Rahkshi first came out that just was crazy. Had something to do with protodermis being alive and the island of Mata Nui actually being the Great Spirit Mata Nui... pure crazy talk.
  4. nice.. named youreself after a volcano. a bad one , too.

  5. Sounds great, will we get to hear your voice by any chance on the podcast? Haven't heard your voice sine the BZPowercast days. Will the podcasts be released on bioniclestory.com?
  6. So I'll try to keep out any spoilers and just tell you that Bionicle Legends 11 is an amazing book. Maybe just for the ending though. It's got some great battles but they don't seem to quite come across in print, even becoming slightly hard to follow at some points. Though the character interaction more than makes up for it between both the heroes and the villians. There's a bit of flying macguffin that seems to show up just to clean up the plot, though I'm not sure how you would have done it otherwise. While the ending wasn't a complete shock if you've been paying attention for a few years, it is surprising that they actually did it. Just reminds me how deep this story for a kid's toy line can get. Once we can post spoilers I might talk about a few metaphors that the story seemed to have, so be sure to go grab the book so you can follow along.
  7. Lol, I like your name. :D

  8. I recently got Legends 10: Swamp of Secrets and I will say it's a good book. Not exactly my favorite of the books but worth the read I wouldn't say its a spoiler to reveal there is basically two stories going on in this book. It's interesting how it flows between the two stories but the final result feels like a book that's half as long as it should be and we only get a few fights and some secrets revealed. I believe both stories had the ability to carry two books, and had thy not been crammed together they would have been great individual stories. And if your new to Bionicle world be sure to bone up on the old stories, this book wouldn't have been near as interesting if I didn't know the history of the Toa Mata from 2001. The Kingdom is also really good, better than the book in my opinion. The idea of parallel universes has alot of potential and its good to see this idea used in such a way to tell a "what if?" story.
  9. What time is today's show?

  10. It looks like ToyWiz has the Mistika on pre-order Now usually I would never suggest ordering from Toywiz as they have a tenancy to raise the price. Interestingly enough they have all the Mistika available for $11.99, same price as the Phantoka, which is a dollar less then the price being shown at Toy Fair. So does this mean there may not be a price raise, did ToyWiz just not get the memo? But of your one of those that have to get the new sets as soon as possible, you may want to check ToyWiz out. It's only a dollar cheaper for each which wont cover the cost of shipping, but its better than paying full price. Cross your fingers for no price raise. Or cause some sort of economic shift, whichever is easier for you.
  11. Awesome personal photo!

  12. I finally chose the people that would be part of my podcast team today. I opened up the poll where people can vote on what to name the podcast I think I have 50 PMs in my mail box I may haven broken BZP in the process I haven't been this excited about...anything in a long time. Here's hoping you'll be listening when its all said and done.
  13. So now onto my next crazy theory, the Great Spirit Mata Nui himself. I have a theory that seems to come more from Transformers then Bionicle...but it might work. Mata Nui's body is literally the world under the great sea. Think of it kinda like Unicron or actually Primus from Transformers. That is why the island of Voya Nui had to be returned to help revive him, it was part of him, thats why the Staff had ot be used to repair the world, to repair Mata Nui. That is why the core needed to be healed, it was the core of Mata Nui..the heart of the world. Thats something I was always curious about during the Great Cataclysm. Why did so many bad things happen all over the planet? Was it because Mata Nui could no longer keep it in check. If so why didn't more things begin falling apart. Perhaps the Great Cataclysm wasn't cause by Mata Nui's slumber...perhaps he fell asleep because of it. Causing so much damage to ones body would definitely cause one to become comatose, and if such damage was not treated then death would be certain. The only way Mata Nui could be awoken is if everything is returned to the way it was before his fall. If Mata Nui is not the actual body of the world, then at least his life and existence is directly connected to the health of the world. What better person to care for a world then one who feels it's pain. next time...why the matoran matter. and yes, i am kracked
