  1. I'd love to make a Makuta thats black and dark green since its such a fitting color scheme but i barely have any other dark green pieces and the ones i did have i used for another moc who is primarily green. I did make another thread where i showed I changed the head and the wings for Sinitrax all together
  2. it has it's charm. also some of those children-built dark hunter mocs are actually pretty good like Charger, Gladiator, Eliminator, Conjurer etc those are the kind of mocs that i wish i could make lol
  3. All the sets people have shown here, including the fanmade Dark Hunters, I still like them lol
  4. I'm pretty sure Lego in general is much less accessible in Latin America compared to the Anglosphere or Europe (high import tariffs and the like). Same reason Bionicle was never big among Middle Eastern kids either
  5. Really epic design and cool backstory! im always blown away by your work heh
  6. Pretty good design, haven't bought a Lego vehicle set in a very long time myself but I really miss Tiny Turbos and Lego Racers in general. It does look like a good synthesis between those and the vehicles you'd see in the older Lego City sets. Big enough to fit a minifig in there but still compact as a whole.
  7. Their cover of Poor Unfortunate Souls was really awesome tho
  8. I liked some of the prototype designs for the Phantoka Lewa and Tamna masks, because they kind of remind me of Halo Spartan helmets and it would've looked cool but maybe they didn't want to lean too far into that direction. But it would've made for some awesome MOCs. I also wish they released that black Skakdi head, that would've looked totally awesome on a figure, I can see it already
  9. On this note I always just assumed that Lego would settle on "gimmicks" or certain themes for the actual sets and then designed the toys and story around that in order to keep things fresh; Year 1 established the basic aesthetic of the biomechanical "tribal" Polynesian inspired beings on a tropical island (which itself conveniently had every kind of biome on it), around 2004 we go to a new "island" but this time its a highly advanced sci-fi city turned Orwellian dystopia, 2005 they bring out spiders just because, 2006 still stuck around the tropical island theme but now its an even more dangerous island with "gangster" villains and new young Toa, things get wayyy edgier than they already were (it was 2006 after all), 2007 we're now underwater and have sea creatures and villains inspired by sea creatures and aquatic Toa, 2008 we're up in the sky, Toa with jetpacks fighting flying bat and insect Makuta, 2009 we're on a totally new wasteland planet with a sword-and-sandals Greco-Roman type of vibe (Glatorian= Gladiator, duh), I believe they had plans for like dinosaurs or something afterwards as well. I think dino Bionicle would be very fitting for the brand. I like imagining where else it was gonna go had Bionicle lasted 20 years.
  10. That must've been equally hilarious and devastating at the same time.
  11. Bionicle lore is literally up there with actual mythology, Tolkien and religious theology. I ain't even joking
  12. they're so cute, i remember wanting those plushies when i saw them playing MNOG for the first time
  13. Tahu and his Hau are basically the symbol of the entire Bionicle brand/mythos IMO. also nice username
