That video has uncovered a new purpose for the '08/'09 vehicles and Wave 2. SKELETON WARRIORS! AWAY!

Call me boring, I'd be hesitant to join any of those factions, really, so I'd go with Metru Nui. The Hand and the Order are frequently morally questionable. The Brotherhood, the League and the DHs are all morally bankrupt. Also, anybody have a clue what the salary's like for any of these groups?

They'd be fantastic leading men for a great police procedural. The world's greatest detectives investigating the mysterious death of Mata Nui. And they're running out of time.

The best ship that never happened is Shadow Takanuva and Light Makuta. Seriously, why isn't this a thing? These two deserve their own spin-off.

Nothing will deter the Macku/Hewkii shippers. Not even Greg.

Yeah, I was curious about this too. Since the announcement was made a few days ago, I'm just assuming there's some kind of approval process going on or they haven't got round to it.

Oh wow. Didn't notice this announcement post! Well done to everyone who entered and congratulations to everyone those who won! Big hand to to bonesii in particular, for his consistent dedication to seeing this contest through over the years (years!!!). It now feels really odd to accept that this contest is over.

So, when'll the final official announcement be made?

And so on this day, the destiny of the human race changed forever.

Whilst HF never really grew on me the same way BIONICLE did, I think it did a very good job in surviving for as long as it did. Considering the immense backlash it got from BIONICLE fans when it was first introduced, I think it proved itself to be a good toyline. It was even substantially innovative with the new building system it introduced, which I don't think any MOCcist would complain about.

Huh, never thought of it that way. Makes sense though if that was their intention.

Welp, I've tried to incorporate that banner to the best of my (very limited) abilities. I'll just leave it as it is at this point, not worth fussing over.

I voted 4 for the reasons cited by the SkeletonMan939.

"Not this time," I said as I took a seat in one of my armchairs. "This old Gukko's wings can only stretch so far – and you certainly strained them.” --- "I've been poached for one or two projects. Many value my comprehensive knowledge on the prophecies, so I haven't run out of interesting work just yet. Though I have found myself drawn to a range of smaller ventures that I have in the works.” ---- "Your most prized intellectual properties are not present on your desks. Implication: They have been stored somewhere. Your telescope has also been completely shut down. Most Ko-Matoran only power them down to recharge as opposed to deactivating entirely, should they be needed at a moment's notice. Also, the door to your office was locked; fortunately, I know the code. You really must change that." ---- "That deduction is invalid. You used an eyepiece to get all that. It would be more impressive if deduced without that microscope in your eye, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt." Nuju smiled. “But indeed, you are correct. A group of Archivists want me to sit as a guest speaker in a public lecture. I'm to talk about the relevance the past has on determining the future." Nuju’s grin disappeared at that news. "Typical. The Onu-Matoran's work gets more attention than it deserves, especially with all those constant expansions to their Archives. One day, I'll make sure they come to understand the importance of our research." --- I peered outside the window and stared at the suns, noting how low they hung in the ginger sky. --- "Best of luck with your lecture, Ihu," he began, his voice filled with genuine emotion. Warmth even. In that moment, the line between friend and mentor blurred. "I’d be curious to hear what those narrow-minded Onu-Matoran will have to say on your comments. Perhaps you can convince them to pluck their heads from the ground. In any case, have a safe trip." ---- And this concludes my memoirs for the moment. Being a Ko-Matoran, I feel the act of putting chisel to stone both irksome and unnecessarily tedious, so I have devised a better way to amass my thoughts. Indeed, many will question my use of this Memory Crystal for such purposes, or even brand me as downright selfish for trying to leave some small imprint of myself upon this world in such a manner, but I do not see any better way. ---- Until then, I leave you with a small statement I gave to Nuju in Ga-Metru, one that had him thinking for days: Life is a puzzle that cannot easily be solved, the bane of every philosopher's existence. It takes time and patience to piece its intricacies together, and then to understand its meaning in a global vernacular. If these mysteries frustrate or confuse you, look to the skies above and keep an open mind. Your future is not a series of events set in stone; pre-determined by the forces of chance. We may each have a destiny, but even those can be resisted, and in the most extreme cases, averted. Our future is determined not with solid certainty, but with careful consideration of variables. The slightest of miscalculations, shifts in temperature, even impulsive actions can throw the entire natural order out of balance. And such a world is something worth revelling in.

Right, I think I've just about done my last revision. All changes have been highlighted in red. The tooth debate is also over in this one. Thank you ball boys and thank you umpires. ----
