It feels way too soon for another generation to happen, imo. Plus the toy market isn't really ripe for something like Bionicle to be a success again.

Personal Headcanon, this was the architectural style that was developing at the time. That way, it would line-up with being built around the same time as Metru Nui. Either as a response or predecessor to  Metru.

THE SASH-RINGING, FLASH-SINGING, THE BASH-PINGING...

But in the day; 12 years ago?  I had a dream that I received issue #11. In the dream, the cover looked like it was super bright and yellow and obviously something important was happening on the cover. A couple days past and guess what shows up in my mail box? YEAH. ISSUE #11.

Spoopy.

Another lame dream included finding strange knock-off Bionicle 2015 sets at a TRS near where I live.

That T-Rex is potential for nightmare fuel. 

Haha. I learn from the best, Pops.

Fishing for flies. Cyberpunk style.

 

 

The trash. We need to reboot the reboot.

 

I think the Toa would stay at Okoto for a while and find out more about it while unlocking new power, fighting new foes, and meeting new characters. I'd honestly be satisfied with that as long as it's good.

 

no. YOU"RE RIGHT. We need a reboot to the reboot! ...Vahi time sheningians? 

 

 

With an undercurrent of "time" playing an important role, I think it would be cool to stay on Okoto, but visit different time periods on the island - think of it: the Toa could go to prehistoric Okoto, and we'd finally get BIONICLE dinosaurs! Then they could travel to a Metru-Nui-esque future Okoto, and save it from an apocalypse or something. 

 

This would all happen after the Creation/Control/Ultimate-Power Mask "Trilogy".

 

It's something that's never been done before, and I think it would be a great way to get the most out Okoto.

 

Either that, or make an unknown BIONICLE mainland-continent the stage of conflict.

 

Or, maybe visit one of those moons in the sky. BIONICLE in space would be cool, just as long as they keep in in the solar system.

 

I feel like the reboot has a lot of room to play around in.

 

They wouldn't even need to travel back in time. What if they or someone brought Dinosaurs back from the past to the present?? or something similiar to the time stones in Skyward Sword.

 

Thank you! Curse this reboot. Seriously. Take this reboot out back and curse it. I hate this piece of crud reboot. I hate it with all the strength I can muster. The Vahi is most likely gonna appear soon, so cross your fingers!

 

If I remember correctly, if we didn't get BIONICLE Stars, we would have at least gotten a BIONICLE movie with dinosaurs. And let's not forget Skirmix!

 

The vahi will ultimately lead to Gen3. Gen1 and Gen2 won't be connect but Gen2 and Gen3 will.  :^y

Yeah, Skirmix! The foreshadow that never was. I'm surprised we didn't get more like him durring that year. Hopefully Gen 2 deciedes to include some dinos. Not within the first three years but maybe the years following that?

G2's story will probably be similar to G1's story. Lego knows how well it did the first time, so to change it too much would be too big of a risk, that being said, some things will change to keep is fresh and different from G1. I'd imagine we might see a 7th Toa, but the whole Metru Nui thing might be dropped.

It might be similair in structure. For example, Heroes are introduce. Find the masks. Badies intrduce. big fight. Finish Quest. Oh no, Another quest is actvated. starts all over again.

I totally agree with you about there being another 7th Toa. I always found this to be a plot-point with other toylines (Beast wars and Power Rangers) and it'll great for sales. Maybe Ekimo will "magically" turn himself into a Toa or some other guy will take up the role.

The story - from what I've read- is one of the reasons they decided to place the theme on hiatus and bring it back with a reboot. So I'm not sure if lego would want to follow it's exact foot steps. The creative team has also stated that they want to do new stuff with the line. You can even see that with the summer wave for this year with the Skulls.

That's cool. LEGO is saling towards those waters. This could lead to having more LEGO influence in educational facilities.

I wonder how expensive they'll be though... yikes. My wallet.

Currently it's this smiling T-Rex head. I drew it one day and the image kind of stuck. At that time, I was reading a load of Micheal Deforge and a friend bought me The Dinosaur Comic's Giant Plush.

The othe day i finished Hyperion. A Sci-fi story of Six Pilgrims traveling the planet Hyperion to find the Time Tombs.  The story is built from Six short stories that each of the pilgrims tale to each other. Surprise surpirse, all of the stories are related to the vary planet that they'll traversing. It was an interesting read. Some of the stories I felt fell flat but that could be me. The shrike was cool. I is some kind of killer robot that might be from the future? It's made up of spikes.

Early today I started a novella called the Talking Man. It's about a car wizard from the end of time. It's gonna be so zangy!

That green guy

At the simplest level, the Toa will continue to fight Makuta's minions, and eventually Makuta.

 

Location-wise, I would expect at least the whole initial three years to be on Okoto. They could take a leaf out of Ninjago's book, which keeps the same islands but just adds in new locations (which BIONICLE can do because there isn't a game like MNOG pinning down exactly what is on the island). G1's fast location switching meant they sometimes lacked detail and ended up as 2D backdrops.

 

And anyway, there are ruined cities in all the regions that could be explored (and there are multiple villages in each region yet to be visited by the Toa). We could even have a story arc to do with the Ancient City's repopulation. Windham stated in an interview that Okoto is big enough to take weeks for a villager to cross, so there is plenty of room for new surface locations.

 

Toa-wise, I hope that in the future they are fused with their Golden Mask powers, so that they cannot lose their elemental abilities so easily. Seeing as the Golden Masks function more like Nuva Symbols, it would be like a "reverse-Nuva" transformation but with power boost. (It seemed odd in G1 that the Nuva upgrade meant the Toa needed an extra item to function; perhaps G2 will have the transformation the more sensible way round, of needing an extra item to not needing an item.)

There shouldn't be a reason for them to leave this location for a couple years. Okoto is huge and it's been said that there is a muiltiutde of villages. Now if that is what it implies, We could have settings that take place in villages that are oddities. Places that have altered Villagers, ruins of strange cultures-besides the mask maker city-  just give us a world to explore. Having said that, I don't thinking going underground would be a good solution to a new location, unless of course we are going to visit Onu-koto.

It would interesting to see the story team expand on these Toa/Glatorian-ish denziens that LEGO has been throwing at us with the Skulls. Were they another race besides the villages? Where did they go? Are they all dead? If this is the case, these beings will become a larger role in the future.

In regards to our mighty heroes. I can see them growing into the characters that they are in Gen1 by the end of this run. Tahu and Kopaka espiecally, I can see them maturing into a partnership that's similair to Gen1's Kopaka and Pohatu.  Pohatu could become someone that is more relax and free-spirit than his current angsty attitude. The Toa just have a long way to, character development-wise.

I've read somewhere, and a bunch of other places, that people are thinking that Makuta may be possessed by the MoUP. yeah. that works. It would make for an interesting twist.

This guy looks crazy! The helmet looks awesome, colour scheme looks great and a lot of useful pieces for MOCing.Probably getting him.

Bulk looks pretty decent. I really like the design on his torso piece. It sort of resembles a gear, which is pretty sweet!

This is impressive.I really like the idea with the strings and that if you were to move the minifig joint stick it will actually change the flappers(I forget the name for them). It's actually so sick, I could probably just play around with that little feature a lot. Maybe make some sounds effects of my own. :3The color scheme is also nice.Unfortunately I am really cheat and this set is $129.99 Cdn. This scares me and my wallet!

Lord of the Rings for sure!!

" I HAVE THE POWERS! All OF THEM!" Haha this part made my day. Just wondering, was it a Homestuck reference? ;)This is cool stuff thought! the colors and shading is nicely done. Keep up the good work.

So apparently updates are going to resume as normal on the 11th? There also may be an intermission?

81%! ALMOST THERE!

I'm super excited for the EoA5 flash, I'll tell you.

Yes, it will be beautiful.

I got both Tahu and Kopaka Mata as my first Bionicle sets.

I read a webcomic called Homestuck...waiting for the EOA5 Flash. I also played a bunch of REACH and Minecraft.

The third choice is of course is the best one, Minecraft for the win! But seriously it should be called the Forum Downtime (FDT)
