    opinion: no, we DON'T need bionicle back

    in Bionicle Discussion

    Posted

    Throwing my few coins at the topic:

    As a fan of the story: It's fine if the official story doesn't continue. Some prefer their version of Bionicle over others. I have no problem with that in many cases.

    As a builder and fan of the sets: I'd like to see the sets return even if it's the pieces are updated. There are unique parts to Bionicle that other sets can't replace or replicate. There are sets that I find fun to build but I missed out on. There are even some sets I would like to rebuild but currently can't.

    Simply put I would like a set rerelease/update like they do with the Star Wars line, but don't really mind the story staying where it is.

    BBC #78: Matoro Inika Rebuilt 2.0

    MOC Upgrade from 2006 to 2021

    Six cannisters floating towards Voya Nui contain six Matoran.

    Each patiently waiting for their destination.

    However, from above, lightning from a mysterious Red Star strikes them.

    When they emerge, the will be known as the Toa Inika.

    Fifteen years later, one of them receives a makeover: Matoro Inika!

     

    Comparison Pictures:

    Fun Pictures:

    The Knighting of Matoro | Bring it! | Borrowing from Kopaka & Tahu | Fight Pose | Undefeated Brofist | Deep in thought

     

    I enjoyed making my first rebuilt Inika and considered improvements. I used both feedback and some ideas and made it simpler. It should help that Matoro doesn't have too much problems as Jaller.

    Side note: Linked pictures may be a bit big. I intend to upload smaller versions at a later time. Sorry if pictures look terrible.

    Thoughts, comments, and suggestions are appreciated.

    Fusions of the Same Individual

    in Bionicle Storyline & Theories

    Posted

    Considering that, in G1, there's a lot of things happening where x is y but sometimes z and not equal to q. Considering that Mata Nui's body was a robot and the life inside are nanomachines, how could fusion attempts, short of Energized Protodermis, result in an unliving fusion? Natural fusion requires the unification of willing and compatible beings with physical forms. Fusing a dead body to a living one with the Spear of Fusion... probably best not to think too much on it.

    Back to the original topic: I think that, in the unlikely event that it would happen, a fusion of the same individual would result in the formation of a being of a similar personality. It would either be enlightened or suffer some form of time disorientation. If wearing the same/similar mask, then I'd assume it would be slightly more powerful than its strongest version. Of course, fusing three of the same person tapping into the Mask of Time Duplication may create a functional temporal paradox.

    Fusions of the Same Individual

    in Bionicle Storyline & Theories

    Posted · Edited by tomdroidser

    It's been years since the introduction of Mask of Time Duplication and the alternate realities of the Olmak, but I recently had thoughts that probably won't have a confirmed answer:

    What would happen if three of the same individual (example: Toa Mata Tahu, Original Tahu Nuva,  and Toa Nuva Tahu Mistika) formed a Kaita fusion? (edit 1: looked back at old Greg Q&A stuff and said not possible for same element to Kaita fuse... although I wonder if it's still possible if there was one regular Tahu, a Fire/Shadow Toa Tahu, and a Shadow Toa Tahu) (edit 3: I know this isn't possible in the main universe, but what if another universe where this restriction didn't exist?)

    Would they still be the same person but with greater control over their (assuming that they have the same) element? (edit 2: same as the edit 1) 

    If fusion components have the same/similar Kanohi (such as Hau/Hau Nuva), would its power be enhanced?

    I would like to know what others think on this topic.

    Contributing News

    in BZPower Q&A

    Posted

    After looking for some time at old news stories, I was wondering if news contributions were still a thing. Does news@bzpower.com still work? Unless I missed something the last news story "source" was September 18, 2016 as a set review.

    Future of CCBS

    in Bionicle Discussion

    Posted

    As I looked at this topic, I had this sudden thought: How will CCBS continue? I don't mean that they will use it for something like Star Wars, but to actually continue as a core element to a theme like G2 Bionicle and Hero Factory. I would like to read other thoughts on this.

    Arkham Firefly

    Thanks for the observations. I currently have an idea of a more colorful model. Unfortunately, it also means I'll probably take apart my Master Tahu and Master Kopaka for certain parts.

    Arkham Firefly

    in Bionicle-Based Creations

    Posted

    Should've been more specific: I used the Arkham Origins Firefly as a inspiration for this design. Although it looks like a generic CCBS model with a custom winged jetpack, it's sorta like a combination of Bulk 3.0 and Brain Attack Surge... or just a modified Ultrabuild Batman. I'm only slightly dissatisfied with the "flamethrower." But that's my opinion on it.

    Are the Inika Actually Zombies?

    in Bionicle Storyline & Theories

    Posted

     

    Maybe the lightning killed then, and the Ignika revived them but made them ugly because the Ignika is an a-hole.

     

    The ignika makes everything it touches ungodly levels of ugly to compensate for how it's stuck being a flipping piece of metal for all eternity.

     

    Or the Red Star did them a favor and gave them the BIONICLE equivilant of Thor's power.

    Quiz Topic: Bionicle: The Legend Reborn

    in Games & Trivia

    Posted · Edited by tomdroidser

    Hello, I am Tomdroidser. You may know that in 2014 I made a quiz on The Lego Movie. As of now, it is currently the only quiz in the Lego catagory. However, that is not the reason I direct you to this topic. I recently devised a quiz based on BIONICLE: The Legend Reborn. I plan to fully put it up by 7/24/2015. I'm currently adding the last bits to it before placing it in the Bionicle quizzes catagory. Once I'm done, I'll link it to this topic and place the actual scores here in the topic. Until then, you can wait, study, create banners for this topic, or guess what might come up in the quiz. I hope you revisit this topic soon.

     

    Link to quiz.
