Well folks, I had the dream last night myself.

It definitely wasn't the stereotypical dream at the retail store, it actually took place at a Brickfair, a vendor was selling tubs and tubs of used bionicle sets (mostly 06 and forward) but they had so many there were crowds of people getting these used sets and there was still so many left for those who wanted them.

The vendor was about to let me buy the Thornatus for 30% off when I awoke.

While all those things you mentioned are definitely a big part of Bionicle, I'd have to say the story. Bionicle is essentially a collection of the legends and stories of many characters. 

It is the Biological Chronicle after all It's name literally states that it's a story told about living things/characters. So I'd 100% agree with Bambi on this.

When, someone in BS01 had edited the thing, so that’s why I asked. It’s weird for how the BS01 page had worded it.
 

When I am thinking about it, the Kestora were never named in Journey of Takanuva, so there is a possibility that these people in the Journey of Takanuva book in 2008 are not exactly Kestora, but a species that conincidentally looks very much like them, but sort of doesn’t behave like them. Not only that, but the pocket dimension has a city-building creature that looks like an Archives Mole and an entity that looks like a Kanohi mask. I get that they are reused models in the book, but yes. It’s basically how the nature of the pocket dimension does.

Greg has confirmed that the beings in the pocket dimension are the same as in the red star, namely Kestora.

He also hinted that while they're the same species, they were created at different times under different circumstances, which is why the City of SIlver Kestora are more warriorlike rather than repair workers.

All these are stated in the Greg quotes linked to biosector01.

I'd go to that party!

Happy birthday @confused piraka!

I like how this has devolved into hf propaganda 😃

Well, Furno's and Speeda Demon's bikes are pretty sweet as well

Are those glow in the dark? They look super cool!

A very important update. We had another pic of Tahu, Olivia from Friends, Jack Stone, Nick Bluetooth from Galidor, Emily from Elves, and Furno from Hero Factory. :3

 (ignore that this is at least an hour late for April Fools depending on where you live lol)

G3 Confirmed!  They're very cute, well done!

I think I've got to give my pick to Mazeka's Swamp Strider.

I confess I actually forgot about that one lol that one is quite cool.

Jetrax T6 for me for the flying ones.

I'd love to say that Thornatus V9 is my fav for the land ones, but I don't own it yet, so I can't say that for certain (though it looks sick!) I only own the Cendox V1 currently (though I did at different times have the Scopio and Baranus, both of those are really cool!

I see you flexing that Trans-Dark Blue Mask of Water

Great build though, love the fabric usage, and those new hooks fit her rather well!

At this point, I'm not even sure if I'm going to buy it after it's fixed. Aspyr got caught allegedly using someone's mods in the game, though it seems they removed it.

I believe Star Wars HQ on youtube reported on that, and I think it was confirmed that they used the "borrowed" mod in early advertising but the actual game uses all original stuff.

Has anyone dared to try the Battlefront Classic Collection?

I was really tempted to grab it as I never got a chance to play it when it originally came out, but with all the reviews about it, I'm going to wait until they fix the multiplayer and possibly go on sale

Makes me really glad I finished my collection in 2020

Yeah a bit ago I told myself I was going to collect everything from 2001-02 and then my official collection would be done. I succeeded, so then I just keep an eye out for certain sets that I still want, but not necessarily trying to get everything from one year.

makes me want to open a store was it hard to do so?

Not to hard, the hardest part is just proving that you're you, and then uploading the individual pieces gets a little monotonous Personally I prefer selling full sets to pieces.

Wow it has been a hot minute since I looked at prices, this is insane (nothing against the seller, I'm sure this is market price)

Don't I know it... I actually put my price at the lowest listing in the US, it only goes up from here (the only bricklink stores that go lower are in Germany for some reason lol)

Very well designed, I like how you made him look more like his movie model rather than just reusing Orkahm's torso.

It arrived!

WOW for real? That's amazing thank you!

@confused piraka fixed it I think, can you try it out and see?  Thanks!

I do actually support shipping to California.

I have shipping set up, no clue why that banner is there.

I'm working with customer service to fix this, will send an update once it's fixed.

Thanks for bringing this to my attention

I tried playing LEGO Xbox LOTR with my brother at Christmas which was glorious! But sadly sickness has struck me with slowness and senility-it was so hard I could barely play and just trotted along after him haha. We switched to Mario Party 8 Wii which suited my pseudograndma brain cells better but I was still zoning out on autopilot, forgetting to play & kept falling asleep. Hope tis temporary, learning my tired, toddler-level thinking abilities was a bit terrifying for us all. 😂🙈 

I have Lego LOTR on PS3, it is definitely glorious!

Sorry that you're sick though, that's no fun. Hope you get to back to 100% very soon!

I'm working on something! Just taking my time lol

After viewing a bit of your past work, I get the feeling you'll blow the competition right out of the water lol

So I just read that last entry and I'm rather surprised I hadn't found it earlier! Now I need to go back and read it from the beginning

I always love fan made comedy stories, thanks for giving the Kal some much needed love. A job well done!

I'd love the light blue kaukau, but most I could offer for any one kanohi would be $50 or so. I know it goes for way more so I'll just look longingly from afar. Hope you get some good offers for these.
