  1. "4 elements is not more confusing than 6 if the elements used make more sense. " And yet we're having a discussion on whether or not stone should "get the boot" and your telling me 4 can't be better than 6? Do we really want to see six giant titans beating one enemy to death? That's the "collect em all!" Spirit that no modern kid is a fan of. Video games are ruling out toys these days because they can't manage to occupy a child's imagination long enough for them to wonder about the toy they're playing with. And G2 Bionicle certainly did NOT appeal to kids of the modern age, only AFOL nerds like us were the only people to have actually considered G2 Bionicle a good line of toys. Bionicle G2 was made for BABIES. If you don't think so, then why was the advertisement so horrendous along with the cartoons, right along with the "simple story" aspect the main selling points of G2? It didn't challenge your imagination whatsoever. I'm waiting for Lego to create a new IP involving a mysterious creative world, filled with rich scenery and characters that actually make you WANT to follow the story. And it doesn't have to be BIONICLE either, it can be something completely new while remaining "bionicle feel"

    Pohatu, or any other Toa Mata, should never appear again as a bionicle set. All original characters and story only. This is what Lego messed up about G2, no one wanted a completely recycled theme.

    Then there's no point to labeling it as "Bionicle." If, at its core, it's not about the same iconic characters working toward the goal they were conceived to pursue, then it's not really a proper reboot/adaptation.
    Right, it would be something entirely new like a reboot of Bionicle but it would not be bionicle, a "spiritual successor" and while I love our Matas, I think they deserve a rest after their epic adventures and let new heroes take the stand. That's why Hero factory was at least somewhat interesting, only that each of the awesome looking heroes had a big "H" on their chest and it was all too childish, just as G2 was. Bionicle G1 was definitely not a babies tale!

     

    E: And plus, there would be no more "Stone" argument, it could truly be replaced with a better and more logical choice for an elemental character. But also, why do these characters need to be elemental?

    If it's not Bionicle. there's no point. The Toa Mata aren't real people and don't need a rest because they're fictional characters and can be employed in any reboot however Lego pleases. Hero Factory was only interesting in premise, and fell apart more and more throughout its lifetime. G2 was better than much of HF, even if it was inferior to G1. Neither was actually a "babies tale." The Toa need elemental powers because otherwise, it's like Transformers without the transforming or Star Wars without the Force.
    Oh right I'm sorry, we absolutely MUST copy Avatar the last airbender. And guess what? You can make a related bionicle constraction theme and it doesn't have to be Bionicle. What about "afterman" like people are trying to make? Oh and guess what, it doesn't matter if "they're not real" because I'm absolutely sick and TIRED of the matas every time. What I meant was I wanted a rest from them. Can we please start opening our minds?

     

    Don't think there can be a Bionicle sequel that's a spiritual successor?

    Are they stealing? Maybe, but they're also making something new with it.

    No, not maybe. It doesn't matter if they "make something new with it", its still illegal and none of you should really be praising these people for what they've done.

    We should be praising them because Lego is a company for what they've done. I welcome "WARRIORS"

    Be careful how you use that word "Dank" because believe me, people are associating bionicle with "drug culture" take that how you want it. Tuuli knows.

    Well that just wonderful.

    He said in a sarcastic manner.

    It is wonderful, because Bionicles are what we call "trippy"
  6. I love making recolors, in fact, Toa Tuuli is a recolor. He uses metru green limbs from 2005 and pieces from Lewa Mata, and wearing a mata green ruru to top it all off as the Wind Toa. I also made others using the 2005 metru colored mata limbs. This is why I wish they had made mask packs for Bionicle G2, masks are the center of it all.

  7. At the beginning I was unsure that the Toa were even heroes at all. I knew of course the matoran were good, and the turaga, yet the fearsome look of these characters also gave me a vibe that there was more to the plastic than I knew at that time. Also, I thought Metru nui was above Mata-nui (somehow?) And that there were several islands covering the giant robot, as shown on the map, yet I didn't know that the world was inside it.
