Pohatu:master of... being stuck behind stones apparently? can he only control stone while his hands are free? or  is this heavier/denser rock "earth"?

This episode is the first time ANY of the Toa have channeled their elemental powers directly through their hands instead of their weapons, and I'm sure having your hands free makes that easier.

 

Uh, Lewa during ep. 11? Didn't he use his hand to move the plants?

Also:

Makuta looks different.

That neck and shoulders...

That definitely isn't his protector form, implying that isn't just some random silhouette they made for him.

Also...

"This is ridiculous. I didn't sign up for this."

Ep. 13 in Russian. Seems to be a flashback episode.

Can't stop laughing at Pohatu's position.

"Without breaking anything?" *crumbles*

 

Though it just occurs to me we didn't see the Masters leave before the arena folded in in itself. Perhaps the next video opens with Onua and Pohatman holding the wall up for the others to escape.

Or maybe that's where we see the scene from the trailer(the one with purple light then an explosion)?

I can't stop laughing at it.

They're gonna need new pants shells.

Also, the Sun comes out when Pohatu draws his weapons.

Pohatu confirmed to be the true master of light.

...Ok.

Not sure what to think of it, since it's a very unusual casting choice.

Is it confirmed that Will Arnett is cast as Batman?

Here it is; the first use of the Okoto Alphabet in properly released media:

 

The Okoto letter "Y" is written on a building during a scene in which Skull Warriors are rising from the ground. It is not on the building later.

 

I haven't spotted a Vahi yet, so this may be what they are doing for Easter eggs from now on. Assuming this is true and we didn't miss any letters in earlier videos, I look forward to seeing what the completed nine-letter word says.

 

Edit:

(I hope this is right; it's my first time with magical image linking. )

That honestly looks like a Nuva symbol (I don't remember which one because I never got to memorize them, it's not like I'm the master of symbols), not a letter.

 

 

Those Skull Warriors can't aim. 

 

Skull Warriors confirmed for undead stormtroopers, Bionicle G2 confirmed to take place in the SW universe

 

(that would explain why Kulta looks a bit like Darth Vader)

 

Dude, great minds think alike. The post above yours.

 

Well I got ninja'd.

Also, it's weird the fact that Kopaka's mask wasn't stolen (while we know that Lewa's and Onua's were instead).

Those Skull Warriors can't aim.

"We're under fire!"

 "I hate fire."

These episodes just keep getting better and better. Onua accidentally destroying the bridge was funny too.

Also,

"There is no way out"

Man, Pohatu is a pessimist.

I, as said when Biosector01 posted this on their facebook page, must question the legitimacy of this supposed concept art. Take a look at the picture below.

Notice anything? That is the exact same makuta, in the exact same pose, featured in the image that is supposedly concept art... except wait, this makuta was built in 2013, and Web of shadows came out in 2005. How did the artist manage time travel? He truly must share his secrets.

 

But really sarcasm aside, this really makes me question whether that art is to be trusted. 

Same goes for the pic with movie megatron as a placeholder for Makuta.

WoS came out in 2005, the TF movie came out in 2007.

What if the actual placeholders were makuta set prototypes (or something like that) and LEGO didn't want to show them?

Sidorak is sick of your excuses.

 

Has anyone noticed that there are four skull villains to the six heroes?  And that Pohatu, Lewa, Kopaka and Onua get recolored (infected?) masks but Gali and Tahu don't?

 

Make of that what you will... I think that there might be a few more skeletons that we haven't seen yet.

 

 but I've never known a theme to get a big D2C set in the same year it is launched. 

The Haunted house from Monster Fighters?

They tried making skull warrior and Kulta's face look different but they ended up making him look like Zurg from Buzz Lightyear.

You can't deny that his mouth/front grill (?) looks a bit like Darth Vader.

Ekimu, I am your father!

Hmm..

Dark (and possibly underground) cave, pile of rocks (some of these look like the pillars from the arena), purple energy followed by an explosion...

Three theories:

-Makuta at the end of the last episode reawakens.

-skull basher awakens ( doesn't make sense if we consider 0:19 - 0:20 as his resurrection in the trailer).

-Onua.

I don't think it could be onua (why would he be glowing? I don't think we're going to see the toa's next forms so early.), so maybe it's Makuta reawakening as a 2016 teaser.

Maybe we have not yet seen Skull Grinder in any of the promos, is because he does not exist.

Plot twist: That isn't Kulta in the trailer, that's his brother

Has anyone noticed that in the final scene (where Kopaka activates his shield) Lewa is missing?

Well the clips look quite interesting and actually seem to put some focus on the other toa. On another note what did they do to Kulta? 

Now he's not anymore the skull grinder...

He's Kulta, the Chin grinder.

I'll wait until we see the sets & the other birds.

Who knows, maybe we'll get a new slingshot piece?

Hm, Kulta aims to "Destroy all masks of power." I was under the impression they wanted to steal the masks for themselves. I guess he wants to destroy the MoCr after all? Curious.

 

Edit: So Slicer is controlled by LoSS, but Grinder's description says he controls all Skull Creatures...huh?

I'm not sure about this, but Slicer's description says he was an arena champion...not a skull creature (too bad, I was expecting Skull Squad instead).

Maybe that's why Kulta doesn't control him?

Awesome!

 

 

 run through all the early material that went into creating not only Bionicle but everything that came before including the early test concept “Cybots”,

Cybots?

Have we ever heard of that name?

nice to know that we beat the record. 

I happily participated in creating the Mask of creation on one of the sections.

Not really news, but it's related to bionicle 2015.

Yesterday I went to the "torre da record" event in Milan, where they're building the tallest LEGO tower in the world.

People took turns (which lasted 10 minutes) and built sections of the tower.

Obviously, I decided to build the Mask of creation.

http://i.imgur.com/JcZuqpH.jpg?1

It's the best I could do in 10 minutes, but in the end I had one of the LEGO engineers help me.

(and yes, the bricks had to be put like that, for stability reasons)

I guess you can now say bionicle G2 is part of the world's tallest LEGO tower.

They can or Can't? How else would you fit them in there if not sitting? Remove the legs first or something? Or do you just mean they cannot sit up straight and have to lean back in comfort to ride? I noticed there was a large gap between the 4 pegs in the driver seat photo and the back of the alleged seat.

I guess I should ask how this was created/rendered. Was it in LDD first or was it another program?

 

Yes, they can be put in the car, but they have to lean.

And yes, it was created in LDD. I'm also currently working on making the instructions.

Now make it turn into a robot.

My first thought was Sunstreaker.

this is absolutely gorgeous!

Thanks!

WOW, How did this get featured already? I have no idea what this car is but I like it. It doesn't look complicated to build and fits 2 mini-figures you said? Even better. I don't really like the car sets that are designed after passenger cars but only fit one mini-figure. Maybe next you'll post a picture of the figures checking out this sweet ride and maybe going all GTA and jacking it for some joyriding? Be kind of cool to see.

I'm still working on the minifigs for the Kung Fury (30 min movie on you tube, it's supposed to imitate the typical 80's action movies) versions.

Sadly, minifigs can't be put in a sitting position (with legs at 90 degrees), but it's better than nothing I suppose.
