Or maybe even a Universe where there was no Order or the Order would be insufficient to stop her evil plans -- so it could be a mercy for that dimension. As for how they got that Tuyet to stay quiet, probably threats. Or... it's a prison, there's no reason to assume all the cells are within shouting range of others, and who would she tell except other prisoners who couldn't take the knowledge beyond their own cells anyways? In fact, who says she even knows she's in another universe? She might just know mysterious people kidnapped her and threw her in a cell. Plus, people in prison usually aren't trusted -- "That's what they all say." I agree - nobody gets out of the pit before the Cataclysm, and after, they're stuck in Karda Nui after being mutated by the waters of the Pit (which are the same as the waters of Aqua Magna, right?). Even if someone came and left, they would probably be a member of the Order (and know about the lie), but even if they weren't they'd be unlikely to believe Tuyet.

When things are cold, they contract, and when heated, they expand. This may have affected the flexibility of the plastic over time, but beyond that, I don't know.

The Order of Mata Nui is generally considered to be good, even if they're willing to go to the extremes they did with regards to the existence of Artakha. I suspect that they would have taken her from a universe of the sort in which she was planning on using the stone after informing the parallel Order.

I have bags by color for TECHNIC (excepting masks and heads, which have their own bags) and bins by part type for System.

Most of the Toa, Glatorian, and Rakshi built, as well as a Maxilos, Umbra, and Kardas, then a large mess of pieces in bags by color with a large number of Toa Nuva and others missing one or two key pieces. Spares of many Glatorian and Agori, a Skopio, two of Antroz' vehicle one gold one silver (but both only mostly complete), part of a Super Battle Droid, too many Huki and Onepu and not enough of the other McToran, various masks and krana but no misprints and nothing particularly rare. Oh, and five masks of time, plus partially complete duplicates of most Toa, Bohrok, and Bohrok-Kal.

I suspect it was simply an inconsistency caused by the creation of the red star -> rebirth story (unless that had been planned already, in which case it was of a lack of forethought).

Would he feel insecure about it? Probably. It depends whether the golden armor would still give him the powers of the Kraata he destroyed. If so, then he's more than made up for the weakness.

Are you serious? The first wave of Hero Factory was an army of clone sets with parts that were more specialized and less versatile than the parts of the Bionicle Stars. It was only after the new building system was introduced that Hero Factory started to come into its own, and I'd say that the new CCBS (Character and Creature Building System) has more building value than Roboriders, Slizers, or even Bionicle itself. Have you ever even used the new building system? Because I can't comprehend how anyone who had could see it as having less building value than Hero Factory 1.0. I am. Slizers and Roboriders were fairly limited themes. They were interesting, but strange and neither was amazing. The Heroes for the first wave of Hero Factory were no good, but the villains were okay. I didn't look for building much in BIONICLE outside of titans as anything smaller was generally quite simple. Von Nebula and Rotor at least had some building. After that, Hero Factory is just a modular building system. It's interesting to a point, and the parts do have some use when mixed with actual TECHNIC bricks, but alone they're next to useless - just look at the titans. False. Case in point: this MOC that was displayed at LEGO World in Copenhagen earlier this year. It uses SOME Technic, but not much more as a percentage of the build than you usually see in a small or medium Hero Factory set. I built it on LDD if you want to see how it goes together. It's quite brilliant, and was designed by an actual BIONICLE and Hero Factory designer, Christoffer Raundahl. I mentioned him earlier in this topic as well — he's been designing constraction sets since the Slizers, including the original Tahu, the original Kopaka, and the Bahrag. He's also one of the three inventors of the Hero Factory character and creature building system, so it's no surprise he knows how to use it to great effect.I have also built my own share of Hero Factory MOCs using Technic sparingly. One of my largest is Koboldon, which only uses a lot of Technic for the right forearm. Most of the rest, including the giant claw, the entire torso, and the custom feet, is constraction-based.The larger Hero Factory sets DO tend to be a lot smaller and simpler than that first MOC I linked because they need to meet certain price points (Christoffer Raundahl's impressive creation would probably cost at least $50, higher than any Hero Factory set has ever been priced). But the Hero Factory building system is far from useless if you know what you're doing with it. It's certainly not an "abomination" and has loads of building value at any scale. I find that MOCs with more of a focus on TECHNIC building augmented Hero Factory can be really cool, but I don't see a lot of good Hero Factory MOCs. There are some exceptions, of course, but that doesn't appear to be the rule. I'll admit that they're not abominations - I suppose that was over the top. I still very much dislike them and prefer Slizer/Throwbots and Roboriders to them.

For me it's 2001, easily. What made BIONICLE special was the air of mystery and wonder - the magic of this island filled with dangerous beasts and cool villages. I think that Mata Nui is easily the best looking and most interesting of all the islands, and in 2001 it was totally new. Mata Nui Online Game I did a fantastic job of fleshing out the island and story. 2001 had some of the best comics - I'm a fan of the early style over the others. Likewise, for artwork and animations, I feel that 2001 was the best - the 2005 and 2006 animations don't come close to those of the first three years. The storyline was simple, with a lot of room for your imagination. Oh, and the Rahi are by far the best villains we've had. Lastly, they show ordinary Matoran being heroes, instead of letting Toa do the work for them. I enjoy the later storylines a lot, especially the serials, and I love the 2009 sets, but nothing beats 2001 for me. I enjoy the 2006 games a lot, and they beat any other year, but MNOG I tops them all for me.

Slizer and Roboriders are separate themes. The first wave of Hero Factory was better than Slizers and Roboriders as it was similar to BIONICLE. Anything after that is an abomination which doesn't have any real building value, so there Roboriders and Slizers win.

This is my first time playing. I'm glad you're doing this. Things I like: The Hafu scene. That's greatThe matoran life Feedback (a lot of this has to do with the text - cutting a lot of words and changing it to more active voice would make it sound better): In the opening scene, Jaller teleports in. If you make him slide in from below (so that he starts below the screen, instead of on it), it wouldn't look like he teleportedI doubt that Matoran would say "heh". Also, I'd put a comma between "worse" and "aren't" in the next sentence. If you get rid of "a month ago" ("Ever since that day a month ago"), it would sound a little better. "Whatever" doesn't seem much like a matoran thing to say, either. If you cut the "so" from "So there's nothing to fear", it's more affirmative and fits better. Same with "and" in "And that was the gate...". Later, Jaller says "Wait a miniute" (mispelling with two periods). I'd replace "Hmm" with "Well" and add a comma after "chased" and before "so".Basically, the opening cutscene is far too wordy. Speech is great but it takes too long to get through (and the sound of BIONICLE characters talking can grow tiresome).In what I assume is Jaller's room (or a guard room), there is a map. It would be awesome if you could view it by clicking on it.In the next conversation, I'd add "They are" to "Dangerous creatures...". Jaller would be more affirmative if he said "But they're trapped down there" (which fits with his character). Also, the first letters of their sentences in this conversation aren't all capitalized. "Rock layer" is two words. Vakama says "Perhaps you already hold the answer yourself", which should either be "Perhaps you hold the answer within yourself" or "Perhaps you already know the answer" (which sounds better, in my opinion). In "The Toa returned to the surface", you only have two periods. Likewise, in "then I was..chased", the first letter isn't capitalized and you only have two periods. Same in the next phrase. And the one after that. And the one after that. "I would say that is your answer then;" would be better as "You have your answer". Likewise, "if you were still able to get out" is better as "if you were able to escape". You use "than" in "than the seal must still be broken" when you mean "then", and it would be better if you changed it to "the seal is broken". In "Takua take this letter to all the other Turaga", it needs a comma after "Takua" and would be better without the "all". In "Where are you heading Takua", a comma is needed after "heading". In "Thanks Jaller your company is always welcome" needs a comma after "Jaller".When a Ga-Matoran says "Chronicler! is it really you? I heard about how you helped the Toa, wish I could've been there!", the "is" needs to be capitalized. It would also sound better as "Chronicler! Is that really you? I heard about your adventures at Kini-Nui! I wish I could have been there!". The same matoran says "I'm gunna catch a big one, I can feel it" - it should be "I'm gonna", but that would be better as "I'm going to". Also, there should either be an exclamation mark or a comma, but not both.When talking to Hahli, the question "How has Ga Koro been recently?" needs a dash in between "Ga" and "Koro". It would be better as "How is Ga-Koro?" In her reply to "What have you been up to?", there is an unneeded space within the word "I've". I don't recall boat designs changing between MNOG I and II - did they? "It has been quite peaceful...", it would be better with a period instead of a comma. "Repairs to the docks..." would be better if you cut the "after that Tarakava attacked." I'd replace "common tasks" with "everday work". "I hear the you" should be "I hear that you" and there should be a comma after "hard work".If Ga-Matoran said "Makuta is finally defeated" instead of "dead" it would fit more with the universe.You can ask the astrologer the question "What are seeing in the stars", which makes no sense whatsoever. He says "a new celestial body has aligned", which doesn't make sense either.Meeting with Nokama...Nokama refers to Jaller as "Captian of the Guard" (should be "Captain"). I would cut the "so far" in "What is being done about this so far?" Jaller says "villiges", but it should be "villages". "Hmm" should be capitalized, and "the bridge heading inland from here is still broken" would be better as "the inland bridge is still broken". "Thanks for the help Turaga Nokama" needs a comma after "help"."Fishtank" is actually two words.At the Ga-Koro beach, Jaller says "Takua what are those marks on the beach", which needs a comma after "Takua". In the following cutscene..."Look at these marks Takua" needs a comma after "marks". In "yeah, It seems like a boat was here", "yeah" should be capitalized", "it" should not and it would read better as "Yeah, it appears that a boat was here." A number of sentences aren't properly capitalized here. "well I think we can assume that..." would be better as "I think we can assume that Maku is no longer at the village."When Nokama says "Hello again", you are missing a period. "Again" should be capitalized in "WHAT! again?" "Maku sneaks out of the village quite often..." would be better as "Maku sneaks out of the village quite often. It appears that she has left again, despite my warnings." "if" should be capitalized and I would cut the sentence to "If you want her help you will have to find her. I apologize for any wasted time this may cause." The question "do you know where..." should have "do" capitalized. "sometimes she goes exploring inland" would be better as "She likes to explore inland, particularly around the Hura Mara river" (also, "river" shouldn't be capitalized and the first word should be). "other times..." would be better as "At other times she sneaks out of the village to meet with Huki, the Koli champion. She claims she is just practicing sailing, but I know the truth" (meet with is better than spy on).I'm not sure if matoran say "gah" - I would change Maku's exclamation to "You scared me!" "Relax Jaller" needs a comma after "Relax". "Some creatures beneath the island..." would make more sense as "I found some creatures beneath the island, and they have the Turaga very worried., and there needs to be a comma after "very dangerous creatures" in Jaller's sentence. "Do you know a fast way across..." should be "Do you know a shortcut across..." "Hmm" and "yes" should be capitalized. "lets" should be "let's". "by the way Maku" should be "By the way, Maku". "We need to get moving Takua" should be "We need to get moving, Takua". "right, sorry, lets get going" should be "Right, sorry, let's get going." "take" in "Take care Jaller" should not be capitalized. "make sure you keep..." would be better as "Keep Maku safe." "Don't worry Takua..." needs a comma after "Takua". "You use caution too..." would be better as "Be careful, Takua" and "these monsters could appear anytime" would be better as "these monsters could appear at any time." "Uh.." needs another period, "you should get going...." has one too many.When Jaller says "I thought you said were were going to Ga-Koro, the cable car will take us to Ko-Koro", that should be two sentences or a two phrases separated by a dash.When talking to the merchant in Po-Wahi..."Its busier because..." should be "It's busier because the Toa defeated Makuta." In his response, "thats" should be "that's". I think that the pile of rubble beneath Onua's mask in the canyon should still be there.I'm not sure that Matoran would say "callin'", I think they'd say "calling". "But, your brave stand was nonetheless..." would be better as "But your brave stand was nonetheless vital to the Toa's defeat of Makuta, and your company's fame has spread throughout Mata Nui."When Hafu says "or should I say "Chronicler" or "Hero", it would be better as "Or should I say "Chronicler"? How about "hero"?" "Showing off a little Huki" should be "Showing off a little, Huki" (otherwise you're saying that he's showing off a small Huki, which would be funny albeit incorrect). "So what ya up to" seems totally out of character - Huki would say something like "So what are you up to"? "Well I'm trying to sell my statues" would be better as "I'm selling statues" (less passive) "but for some reason nobody is buying." His next phrase should be "I can't understand why - after all, *I* made them." "They're.... all statues of you" has one too many periods. "why dont you..." should be "Why don't you make statues of the Toa?" In "Wait, There's only one", "There's" should not be capitalized. In "Ha Ha! First come, First serve," the second "ha" should not be capitalized, nor should the second "first." In "they obviously don't understand Art," "Art" should not be capitalized. "whatever you say Hafu my friend," should be "Whatever you say, Hafu, my friend." "I better" should be "I had better" in both instances. I love the cutscene, by the way.In Hafu's dialogue, "but now that you mention it...", the "but" should be capitalized, and "overlook" isn't a thing - do you mean lookout tower? In "behind you there are...", "behind" should be capitalized, "Right" should not be, and "that should lead you to it, no guarantees though" would be a lot better if you got rid of "no guarantees, though."In Onewa's dialogue, "actually he just left," would be better as "He just left. Pohatu has been visiting the village more frequently now that Makuta is defeated." "sometimes he even..." would be better without the "heh" (per above) and it would be better as "Sometimes he even jumps in the Koli ring with the matoran. They found that the only way to make it remotely fair is a Toa vs. all match." The next sentence would be better as "Even then, he still wins, but it's fun to watch."There shouldn't be an apostrophe in "Thank's".Various dialogue boxes have text in the wrong places - it should always be the top left, then top right, then bottom left, then bottom right.I may be wrong about this, but didn't the naming ceremony happen after the Bohrok-Kal (at the same time that the Matoran were made larger)? If so, then Jaller should be Jala. If not, then Huki should be Hewkii and Koli should be Kolhii. I'm done for now. To summarize: you have a lot of capitalization issues, with words not capitalized or capitalized when they should not be. You have a lot of instances in which a comma is necessary but is left out (particularly when someone is addressing a character - a comma is necessary there), and quite a few where there are too few periods. You also leave out a few apostrophes. The cutscenes are also a bit long; as much as I like listening to just about any sound from MNOG, the sound of heads moving can get really tedious if it goes on for too long. Whoever is doing the dialogue could probably use some help with writing it. If you want, I'd be more than happy to directly help whoever is doing dialogue write it. Edit:I'm taking a look at the second chapter. It's interesting, but I don't think that Takua knows how to fight (even as a Toa it seems like he usually just uses his elemental powers). It would make more sense if Jaller jump-kicked him as he almost certainly has combat training.

I'm a studious seeker of knowledge who does not enjoy talking and likes solitude. Oh, and I enjoy colder temperatures. The signs clearly point to Ko-Koro for me. My only problem there would be a fear of heights. I think I'd have the Mask of Telekinesis or Mind Control if I were a Toa or Turaga and Ice elemental powers if I were a Toa.

Axonn's axe, hands down.

I think that the Great Beings would have originally been 100% organic, but they would have outfitted themselves with some of the technology they used to create their robots, if only for their own protection (after all, their creations have gone rogue before). I see them as being scientist/engineers, like the Makuta. I think that they're native to the world, personally.

Easily the Toa Mata form, for a few reasons. First is childhood nostalgia - I absolutely loved them as a kid, and I liked the Nuva too, but these hold more memories for me. Second is the design - the simplistic elemental-based design was great and made each one memorable. The Nuva Armor makes them all a little less distinguishable from each other. Third, I find the Karda Nui forms to be too strange. They're kind of cool, but not what I look for in a Toa.

The Bara Magna background wouldn't have made the movie more interesting to most people, and the Bohrok-Kal had no reason to be in Mask of Light - the story is everything directly after that. I do believe that the Morbuzakh would have been great in a movie, but not in Legends of Metru Nui. It would reduce the significance of the storyline afterward. The Morbuzakh would require a significant portion of the movie, which would segment it - you'd have the first third, fighting the Morbuzakh, then the rest. It would downplay the significance of Makuta, who is the most important character in the story (due to his role on Mata Nui - the movie is the story being told by Turaga Vakama).

I think I prefer movies to TV shows as the structure of TV shows would shorten any drawn out story - unless the TV shows were 45-50 minutes long each, in which case I think they would better showcase all that went on in this period. A TV show is definitely better for showing side stories than a movie, and would allow for more of the detail that was left out of the comics during these years.

It would depend on the team. The tight-knit teams like the Toa Mata and Toa Ignika/Mahri probably wouldn't. Matoro hasn't been replaced (and I doubt that he ever will/would be). I suspect that if the Mata were to reunite, Tahu would be more than welcome among their ranks, plus, even if he lost a great deal of power, he still has the golden armor (right?). Takanuva is sort of a Toa Nuva, but not exactly. I think he's powerful enough to go around on his own. I could actually see him replacing Matoro, as he had a very strong connection with Jaller (and he wasn't unfamiliar with numerous other members of the team from his adventures as Takua). Lesovikk, on the other hand, seems destined to forever wander alone. Maybe he'd get some closure if his dead teammates come down from the Red Star (assuming they're alive up there), but I don't think he could handle being on a team. He's also pretty powerful, considering how well he fought against Karzanhi. I can't see Varian partnering with Norik, as Norik is a member of the Toa Hagah, which is a clearly defined team of elite Toa, and all the members are alive. I think Varian, like Orrde and Zaria, is more likely join expeditions and groups as needed.

Personally, I see BZPower/BS01 (and BMP) as the last real homes of the BIONICLE fanbase online. I can see why you'd want that, but as long as BZPower can run without others, I think it would be best to preserve that. If you make it a hub for everything, it's loses that special aspect.

The image of the LEGO Store is the one in Minneapolis at the MOA, not of the headquarters. That space at the Denmark LEGO store looks pretty nice...

This is really cool. Very authentic looking. Did you use files from the original game? I have one major problem - the spelling and grammar are off. I highly recommend that you capitalize the first letter of every line (because it looks better in this sort of thing) and check the apostrophes. There's some miscellaneous spelling and grammar errors too. This is cool, and it makes me nostalgic. If those spelling errors were fixed, and the sound files for talking were a little quieter, it would be even better.

As you may know I'm not good at sarcasm....But I'm assuming that this is a joke, not a final game, right?

I agree about the characters - they really lack depth and are unexplored by comics and stories. I forgot about LEGO Island, in my opinion that was one of TLC's greatest creations (within the System and Video Game categories).As for price, the sets are more expensive, however they contain more parts. A lot more parts. They're far more detailed as well. I'd like to point out that most of the 1998-2004 (around that time) were mainly built out of large, specialized pieces which took away from the variety of creations. Nowadays we have tons of parts which are very flexible and easier to use.
