Impressive. Must have been difficult designing the cables in a realistic design and a big arc/frame to hold it.
-
It probably got cleansed with from the energy needed to remake the planet pieces of aqua magna, bota magna and bara magna.

Personally i would want him to trade in those kraata powers and just be a Toa Nuva again. They were/are a team. Either all of them should stay as 6 nuva, 6 mata or 6 turaga. Not a odd one out. The only major odd one out is Matoro (he was sacrificed)
But since Mata Nui is safe inside the mask of life. Maybe let Matoro be reborn too ? -
It's unlikely we get updated games but Bionicle Heroes could deserve improvements like
Higher FPS frame ratio, the running speed and camera speed is very slow
Better accuracy to the sets
Colors should not look like they are faded and rusty
New cutscenes and subtitles with new character interactions to teach new fans about the 2006 lore
Option to turn off the Hero Mode music (It gets tiring fast since it overlaps with the slight different tune of the same main theme)
Matoro's sniper function needs zoom levels
All get characters have melee as a primary attack option with the weapon
Fixed weapons Lewa's axe as a shotgun was odd, and Hewkii and Nuparu were missing their real weapons
Not make Vezon overlap with the piraka skins and piraka areas can be unlocked by any piraka
More enemy variety than Bohrok and Vahki but don't make the new ones harder or easier to defeat -
Reminds me a lot of the central villain Gorm from the failed lego Galidor theme

Turaga Dume (metru matoran body)

The White Huna is also a prototype and never saw a mass release.

I made this mask as a raffle prize for Bionicle Day. My goal was to have it raffled on BZ-Power. However, the resin printer, I share died and it took a while to have an air-brush artist paint the one prototype I had. The mask only will attach to a Toa Mata head from the 2001 line, that’s wearing a Krana-Xa.
Have you tested a red krana Xa (Lehvak green bohrok)

It would’ve had g2 not been cancelled, and we have seen what it would’ve been like. It was a combiner iirc, and honestly a really awesome model, I’ve built it myself.
But isn't he very heavy 🤣
I have know G2 has some many flaws that is leaving beating a death horse. G2 had lot of problem including a lack of interest since kids are more interested in Star Wars, Marvel, DC, Ninjago, Monkey Kid, Dreamzz and Ninjago sets. That's a lot of rivals to fight for attention. But i think what really killed it it that people very tired of the ccbs system. CCBS had a lost of skeleton gaps depending on where you look at them and they lack features if they are lot printed of use stickers. True most bionicle sets have torsos and Inika system made sets look lazy. But if bionicle had used a brick and lego plates like Tahu and Takua set we have seen even maybe it could have been more interesting.
I both sets with minifigures in scenarios to show areas from the story and a brick/with ball figures, (with those have even option for the extra masks for the Toa) in their box similar to looking the Toa Mata had to look for them) That way people get great options similar to what Ninjago has been doing and it would be a less loss for the LEGO company. -

Has anyone been able to get Mask of Creation (downloadable on BioMediaProject) to work on their phone? I got it working on my computer, but the phone version (I tried both versions on the site) sits at a loading screen forever. Any ideas?
Did you test the minimum requirements for the app to work? Some phones can open apps but are barely able to progress. Did tryalternate methods by to googling it by adding .apk after the name? That's how i got into pokemon go and pokemon HOME since Android/App Store often have a region blocks and the Icelandic version says this app is not available in your country.
But downloading .apk files can bypass this dilemma and choose united kingdom as country and it works. Still Mask of Creation isn't that good, it can be unfair at times and the animations are slow. -
You don't see creators being able to use complex pieces that were originally designed for specific sets. But being able to craft something that actually makes good use of it deserves praise. The ammount of giant pieces like power drills, stronius plates, hero factory feet, panels from large vehicles, and the mask from tower of toa and other pieces is fantastic.

Opening the Piraka Brain Stalk to change the led battery is always a nightmare
I don't even think they were meant to be re-placed.

Ooh, you know? Heavily agreed. I know there's a degree to which I think the awakening of Mata Nui came earlier than they wanted to (I may be misremembering this), but I feel like it would have been simple to create an actual meaningful *thing* the Toa Nuva had to do to awaken Mata Nui.
I think in the end they could do what Ignika did, they were just under time duress and he did it faster. Toa Ignika was a weird character... not that BIONICLE's relatively quick year stories and necessity to throw in every set make character narratives easier. Just does feel important when it's the central characters.I think one thing is forgotten, couldn't it be implied that Toa Ignika also sped up the healing process that would repairing the healing process on the robots back. According to what i can figure out is the the Mahri Nui cord could be related to a some sort of spike that pierced the back causing internal energy that probably wasn't supposed to come into contact with anything organic (and that created the pit mutagen)
After all what else than a mythical mask could have repaired caused such a fatal injury from the crash (after makuta used the virus to knock the robot off orbit) that the Karda Nui core was be a process to re-energize a heart after difficult surgery ?
As for Toa Ignika doing the sacrifice? He was not a big name character. He was a Deus EX Machina new character who was impressed by Matoro's sacrifice. I also assume he was written that way since the writers probably didn't want to risk killing another Toa Mata/Nuva or Takanuva (aside from Matoro) that had been around for years. -

What? First time I've heard about this.
I think he means the 5 length ball sockets on the hind legs in gunmetal balljoints on Fenrakk's back legs. Mine did crack after 2008.
Fenrakk is a solid build but **** HE TAKES UP A LOT OF SPACE. -
The title says is all. Since we only got 3 villain Crystal/Elemental villain Beasts... If we disregard Magma Beast possibly controlling representing molten stones, Storm Beast probably uses Water and possibly Ice and and Quake Beast is the Ground element.
What kind of body function or weapon would you wanted to see on them ?
Glacier Beast: Ice probably massive translucent claw, turntable waist and stud launcher for left fist. Hero corrupted mask: Gali
White Trans dark-blue and black
Wild Beast (Jungle) : Twin Axes with a gear function to swing them arms. hero corrupted mask: Pohatu
Dark Green and Trans Bright Green and Black
Sand Beast: Hammer and turntable waist to swing it. corrupted mask: Lewa
Colors: Tan and Black -
Was it based on the these bats by any chance. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honduran_white_bat the feet do make the wings a bit thick

I prefer the originals that were designed for the bara magna. But the Skrall being stronger along with their military focus and need to win in fights to earn names.
Also it was odd that we never found out what ruined the Sand Tribe and they essentially devolved. -

Bionicle G1 was not a financial loss - but it was heading straight towards it), and again in 2015 for the exact same reason. In fact, constraction sales so mediocre that Lego just gave up on the whole things.
Yep but it was killed off quickly. Another example was Exo-Force, it survived 2 years and the first Jungle wave. That was longer than Bionicle G2. Most of the time lego offers 3 years.
Galidor was lucky to release the sets that had already been made but the tv show probably killed the budget for future waves. Lego Znap (a bad clone of the Knex building toys) was also a really odd series that came and went.
Spybots also had great designs if they weren't so expensive. -

remember the kanoka club? they totally did
IN FAIRNESS i think those were just meant to be replacements for when you inevitably lost the originals rather than proper collectables, since there were only three colors and each box included all of them
Yes but they had no color variety, just the three armor colors. Squid box made the same thing, instead of yellow/orange you get blue colors which only really fit with Takadox, Nocturn and Gadunka (if you actually used the launcher on him)
The Rhotuka Spinner boxes did this too but it had more variety since 2005 had a lot of characters like Rahage and Keetongu had their unique Rhotuka colors. -
Kazi (No real head)
Good Guy Lhikan is a just a Kazi clone with no bohrok feet to keep him steady
The Duracell and Magazine gifts sets with Rahkshi Head/Mask heads were just terrible stick figures (so they could use a rhotuka spinner)
Solek...his limbs look bulky and look like they are about to explode
Mata Nui Titan set that has the golden mask mask is just terrible too, way too many yellow colors. -
oops didn't notice my earlier post,moderators delete this -
I'm retired buyer but not a builder. I did modify certain sets such as adding a axle that fixed a fatal flaw in Kopaka Uniter shoulders. The https://brickset.com/parts/4121667/double-cross-block double cross block that connects the shoulders to the body does not have any support. I have seen the things crack often and by design those on kopaka will crack from friction.
You need a
2x Half technic bushings (those thin things)
2x 3 length axles
1x 5 length axle
Step 1- open kopaka's uniter's by detaching his chest
Step 2- Slide the both sockets shoulders off his body, replace the upper red axles with a 3 length axles and half bushings. Then slide each should onto the back pieces. The sockets axleholes should both be lined up with the unused axle hole on the unity piece and have a fraction of the 3 length axles sticking out for support and wont slide off
Step 3- Close the chest
However i dont have one of these for added support https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=11478#T=C- 1

Personally i think it was absurd to release all to have all those 300 kraata. The original 6 along with the purple shadow and the translucent orange kraata in the bionicle shoes should have been enough.
3 Kraata in 1 canister isn't a good value either. Should have been 5.- 1

Plasma should not mean hotter than fire or better protection. However being more resistant to bright light is fine.
what does lego think about bionicle? (warning: long)

There is one thing for sure. I saw it in a youtube video that back in 2003 lego were still not all ok with allowing violent toys except star wars. And yet Lego seemed to take a issue with Bionicle a main theme made by lego which was action themed and had violence and many supervisors and directors wanted to get rid of bionicle. The team that were responsible with bionicle designs had to defend their theme several times.
