  1. I don't mind you using my photos, but please give credit where credit is due.
  2. I've had them all since the 16th thanks to Amazon.de, and they're out in the UK LEGO brand stores now anyway.
  3. If you guys want some pictures of Breez, go to my Brickshelf gallery here. (Second page.)
  4. Hey guys, I just wanted to let you all know I received all 10 sets in the mail a couple of days ago, so I'll be able to post pictures of Splitface, Breez, Thornraxx, Furno and whoever else you desire very soon, once I've finished some Christmas-related duties. (I got the sets from amazon.de, before anyone asks.)P.S. Black Phantom...doesn't sound French, nor German, actually. Has anyone ever been to France? I go to France every year, and no one I've ever met there sounded like him, exaggerated or not.
  5. This is what I think Surge should look like. Notice that I have left some green.
  6. All of this different terminology is confusing! :DAnyway, I think LEGO's producing enough as it is, I don't see the point of making, let's say a size 5 yellow shell, because the size 4 version does the job just as well.
  7. ...What do you think the community's general reaction will be? Will it be "NOOO! BRING IT BACK NOWZZZ!!1!11!1", "Aw, that's a bummer", or "OKAYZ HF IS GONE NOW BRING BACK BIONICLEZZZ!!1!11!1"? Will people be weeping, will most be raging or will everyone have grown up?
  8. They're supposed to represent handcuffs, if that is what I think you're talking about.Huh... I thought they looked like Handcuffs. Kind of obvious if you think about it really.Especially since the line's name is "Breakout: Catch 'Em and Cuff 'Em". It is? Either I'm ignorant or that was a recent thing.Erm... We knew that since September.
  9. Actually, the horn pieces used for Black Phantom (if they're the same ones as on the 3.0 villain sets) aren't Mata Red or Metru Red. They're actually transparent red, although with their rubber material and rough texture they're more translucent than transparent and do indeed resemble Mata Red more than Metru Red.I'm pretty sure that's what he was referring to; putting all official names and textures aside, the horns indeed resemble Mata Red over Metru red, or just red and dark red as I like to call them. They're supposed to represent handcuffs, if that is what I think you're talking about.Huh... I thought they looked like Handcuffs.

  10. New avatar and sig: James Galaxy 3.0.

  11. The US November-December 2007 magazine had a pull-out poster of a BIONICLE timeline leading up to a full-page teaser for the Phantoka.Wonder when the sets will show up at shop.LEGO.com. They do previews like that from time to time (the Piraka come to mind; they tried to promote the heck out of them), though it has been a while since we've gotten something like that this far in advance. It just shows that they're working on the marketing aspect; I do feel like they've trailed on that a little bit since the beginning of this year, but it's good to see it pick back up. Think you could get a scan of that teaser?Anyway, I like the plastic bags idea. My parents will like it too, considering the space it saves XP. It's a fresh new idea, and makes more sense considering the size change-ups.Toxic Reapa still doesn't look too bad, but there will be some gaps on him. Evo looks a lot more pimp than his package pose, believe it or not. And Rocka just looks great.Evo doesn't have a right hand, though, it seems, which is odd.Thanks for the information on the past guys, I think the lack of early promotion for OoF last year threw me off. :PAnyway, here's the image. It's small like I said, but at least it's something.
  12. I got the latest UK LEGO Club Magazine today and saw that on the "next issue" page there was a small picture of "Breakout" Furno in the Hero Factory bubble. This just seemed odd to me as I've never seen LEGO advertise future sets in picture form this early for Bionicle or Hero Factory, preview or not.
  13. He can call them "Bionicles" if he wishes, not doing so is only your perspective; there's no need to be snide.Anyway, I don't wash my sets, Bionicle or not, I usually just dust them, otherwise they get really disgusting.
  14. I just recycle most of them; I don't feel the need to keep them.
  15. To be honest, I don't really care when the US got them, they were released in 2000 first, period. I don't know if July 1st 2001 is correct for America anyway; I have some friends from the States who say they got their first sets around March, it seems pretty unwise to pin an exact month on it, let alone a day.
  16. Good review, but I disagree about Scorpio being lame; he has been the best titan-scale set so far at utilising the new building system.
  17. I would say Toxic Reapa, but he hasn't been released yet so there may be some flaws I haven't noticed, thus I'll go with Scorpio; great colour scheme, great design and some fabulous parts.
  18. I would at least like a reason WHY they don't want to name him and end the confusion, since it would be so frickin' easy to do so in both respects.Or they saw the many posts affirming it from young/gullible fans. (Regarding the credits)
  19. What I don't understand is why they didn't give him a name in the first place. It's not like it's going to take them a day to come up with something, more like a minute.Anyway, I will continue to call him "Daniel" because it sounds cool, as the story team seem to be oblivious to the fact that it would take them a minuscule amount of time to come up with a canon name.
