Lenny7092 Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 (edited) Hi, guys! I have been wondering about something for a long time since the New York Comic Con 2014, when we witness the return of our beloved Bionicle, and that is this picture: http://biosector01.com/wiki/images/9/9d/CGI_2015_Quest_for_the_Mask.jpg When you look to the top right of the picture, there is a black face with red eyes. It looks like the Witch Doctor from Hero Factory, but it is black. When I look at it, I always wonder whose face is this. My guess is Makuta wearing his Mask of Ultimate Power (which would appear perhaps next year or two), Skull Grinder or Skull Warrior. It seems that mysterious face represents the main villain in this year's storyline. Do you have any guesses? Edited June 30, 2015 by Lenny7092 Quote I like Lego, Bionicle, and Hero Factory!

Infrared Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 (edited) It looks like Skull Warrior's mask to me what with the eyes, nose, and circle on the forehead. The eyebrows jut out a bit more on the promo image, but the model they used could be a prototype or it could just be off. Edit: And I guess Skull Grinder uses the same mask mold, so seeing as he (it?) fights Ekimu I think it's probably Skull Grinder instead.

Rooster Nui Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 I'm not sure who it belongs to, but it's the same mold as Skull Warrior and Skull Grinder's masks. Presumably it is Skull Grinder's, unless that is Makuta wearing it in black. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishers64 Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 It eez the MAWSK OF ULTIMATE POWUUUUH!!!! Yeah, I think it's probably Makuta's face, methinks. Either that or one of the Skull villains' faces, if that's merely meant to represent the year 2015. Of course, given that promotional posters in 2001 heavily foreshadowed the big twist in 2008, I'm more inclined to say that it's the MoUP. 2 Quote Hero Factory RPG | Bionicle Mafia XXIX: Storyline & Theories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSciFiGuy Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Looks like either Skull Grinder, or an extreme closeup of a skull spider/warrior mask Quote Bionicle: ANP aims to create narrated versions of all the Bionicle books, with voice actors for each character, and music taken from various media to enhance the story.

sydorack Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 It could be skull grinder for sure. There are every slight differences between the picture and the actual skull mask (around the eyebrows) but that wouldn't be the first time promo art and the final product differ slightly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tahu3.0 Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 (edited) Yea its skull grinder yep and if you have an eye for detail you can see a bit of the nose of skull grinder in that image.

Sergei Rahkmaninoff Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 I don't know, I thought it looked more like a closeup of a black Skull Spider than of Kulta's mask. Kulta has a small nose, while the mask in the picture has the ridge of a hollow - like a Skull Spider. And the eyes don't seem quite the same shape as Kulta's either, but again, closer to those of a Skull Spider. Which begs the question, why a black Skull Spider? Does Makuta wear one now or something? Or, more likely, it has no meaning whatsoever but is used merely because it looks ominous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nidhiki of the Shadows Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Always thought it was the Skull Spider mask design, but yeah, looks closer to Grinder/Warrior's. Great keyart regardless. -NotS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
