    my and bruce's mask :ahhh:

  6. And there goes the last review for the Toa of 2015!  :D 

     

    First off, the new Mask of Jungle. Among all the new Toa I had the hardest time getting used to this mask. I used to think that Lewa's new mask looks like a hybrid between Toa Matau Hordika's face and Toa Kongu Mahri's mask  :blink: Now thanks to this review I noticed a bit of resemblance to the Miru and Miru Nuva (e.g. the "cheek holes"), but my mind still struggles to relate the Mask of Jungle to Miru and Miru Nuva, unlike the case with the other 2015 Toa. Bummer :( Other than that, the design of the new mask is fairly ok (after all I have gotten used to it :P ).

     

    Similar to the Protector of Jungle, I like Lewa's new color scheme with bright green and Keetongu orange which gives of a "lush tropical jungle" impression.

     

    Didn't expect Lewa's whole body proportions to be a highlight (IMO) of this set. It opens possibilities to some really nice-looking poses (just look at Lewa's poses in the review). The amount of armor on the Toa is just about the right amount for our agile, tree-swinging, air-swinging and tree-speach-speaking hero. On the other hand, previously I haven't pay much attention to the silver claw pieces around Lewa's neck. It appears as if Lewa is wearing a fur trim or neck pad around his neck  ^_^ Looks interesting but will pose some limitations to Lewa's head movement. Looking forward to see how Aanchir gets around this constraint (and if possible, the gear axle colliding with the head... ouch!).

     

    His new Toa tools look neat. I don't mind the axe/X-glider pieces being of a darker color than the twin blades. They depict some cool, aerodynamic-inspired design details. And it's use as Lewa's "flight/gliding apparatus" is an improvement over Lewa Nuva's flight mode. It's a downer that this weapon piece is also used for Gali (interesting how the air glider pieces also look fitting as swimming fins), but at least they form unique style of weapons for each of those two Toa (dual axes vs one long staff/"trident"). Same case with the weapons of Tahu and Kopaka, in case you haven't notice.

     

    On a side note, it may be just me (or just Lewa's poses in the review), but even when Lewa engages in a fight, I find that making him fight in Adrenaline Mode might make him look cooler than using Battle Mode. In conclusion, I still find Lewa to be a decent set. His mask hopefully won't overshadow his pros too much.

     

    The whole line of Toa of the coming year overall certainly impressed me  B-) I have my favorites among them, but even my least favorite are not shabby either IMO. I am really happy to see this set of Toa starring the revival of Bionicle. THANK YOU LEGO!  :D 

    same here about the mask to me it looked more like Matua Hordika's mask mixed with something more hero factory, but in the end i got used to it and now it kind of ( bad pun alert :alert: ) "grows" on me :ahhh: also im still going to buy him first :D

    A Russian news channel reporting on Bionicle at Comic Con. Some BZPers appear as well!

     

    -NotS

    0:52-1:10 -- "Finding out about this, followers of Bionicle from all different countries flocked to New York for the Comic Con show to sate their sensory-emotional deprivation, as the desire to see, briefly touch, or even just smell fresh Lego plastic is what makes up the dreams of a true Bionicle fan"

     

    This is both the funniest and most painfully truthful assessment of the Bionicle situation, Russian news is amazing :P

     

    It sounds like something my dad would say.

     

    also u c Three people from TheThreeVirtues taking a picture in front of the mask of creation  while one of them is holding the poster.
