  1. I honestly would have to say i love the Tahu/Kopaka relationship this time around, which is funny cuz i found Gen1 Tahu and Kopaka to be really really forgettable outside Tahu being the angry and kopaka's famous "i work alone" line >o> so yeah, tie for Tahu and Kopaka, seriously, why did Jt1 not have more of this?
  2. Bionicle is honestly not the place i expected to find gen1 Elitisim to be prevelent in but here we are...

  3. hm, not to be too self-promoting but i did make some 2015-style Galidors in this dead topic., do w/ that info what you will? (note, i know nothing of the story, i jsut did that as a challenge >o> but it seems relevant[?] to what you mean. )
  4. generally a human being with a lot of talent and a lot of time produces thousands of virtual vertices to imitate life.
  5. yikes and a half, were we even reading the same Bionicle G1?
  6. i seen people hating on this for beign "too silly" or "lazy" it is kinda silly, but i see nothing lazy about the hulk driving a car.
  7. i missed the first 3-4 years of Bionicle so the ever coveted toa mata passed me by my family also did a lot of garage sale stuff tho so i got Pohatu Nuva (and his mata counterpart sans rock) which was p awesome. then both of em broke some bits cuz i was a kid and I had siblings. oops. but last year i had a DOUBLE-long-awaited-meeting in the form of a second out-of-box pohatu nuva!
  8. the Purple Glowy Thing is clearly a Vault Key, and Umarak is going to use it to open the Vault and claim the loot inside. all jokes aside he looks significantly demonic and destructive here, idk how the writing in jt1 is gonna hold up this time but we'll see?
  9. did somebody say F R E E B I O N I C L E???
  10. I think what people might prefer is something that feels more from nature. I mean, maybe there is a place for a mystical ethereal element, but it seems a bit strange to put it on the same footing as your bare bones elements like Fire and Water. And if so, i at least, feel "energy" or "aura" would possibly be a broader and easier to say fit than psionics, though this gen might fare better w/ psionics cuz my main grudge (duping mask powers) isn't rlly there. i still feel the word and powerset is too clunky when compared to "metal" and "gravity" or just "fire" and "ice" 0:
  11. Generally it depends on the source, usually i'll imagine em like the sets but w/ more "skin" or tissues (and better proportions/fingers/etc.) but sometimes i want more expression or simpler appearances so i can draw em faster or hair so i sorta go wild w/ dropping set accuracies while retaining visual cues. I guess basically, so long as it can still be called a "bionicle"?
  12. well it'd seem weird to continue past makuta dying since the plot kinda (unfortunately) went about the ways of showing how ALL the evils in the world were his doing all along (evil laugh muahahah) but if we want closure and if the line hadn't gone downhill n whatnot, three more years to throw velika in the ground, or at least back onto a shelf at a sale for $2.00 USD.
  13. TRANSFORM AND SELL OUT but yeah i don't quite see Bionicle as "ready" for the big screen, it's not as big w/ toy collectors as transformers is (yet), and though it has solid roots for a story, i feel it would become... unrecognizable, in the hands of the film industry.
  14. Not to start anything but i can say as someone who missed most of the G1 story (and still hasn't read a lot of it directly) because they couldn't afford most of the books, that is literally how G1 did it. 0:
  15. that's my secret cap, i'm always angry. actually i DO recall this event but it's not because bionicle was in it, a buncha people got mad that bionicle wasn't a larger part of the film, and that's probably what's being referred to here?
  16. The winter Toa will retire cuz it'll be two waves since they showed up, i assume "soon" means "when we roll out 2017 wave 1" aka, a few months (i mean it's hardly what i'd call "soon' but maybe they're big picture people...)
  17. Matoran wear little metal magnet masks cuz they are little metal islanders and that's just a thing they do, it's cultural. well i mean, it would have been if not for a lot of weird apparently "necessary" explanation of the matter. 0:
  18. aye. that makes sense, once LEGO has the IP licensed, they don't really need 10,000 people all trying to submit ideas for said IP, since that's just asking for overlap with what LEGO was already gonna do w/ it.
  19. Yeah maybe in hindsight i coulda shaved off the gunner arms or maybe reduced it to two arms and two guns, oops. to be honest if i could have i would have used my actual piraka weapons (but of course, they broke over time because huge flat pieces with lots of projections xox ) i also might've tried to make some custom weapons that looked better but i rlly didn't have enough small versatile technic bits for that, plus after "big bulky torso" the part that most screams G1 for me is those weird chronicle staff parts, bent and unbent.
  20. ^Gallery (when public)^ Front Side Pose Torso Construction (partial) Soooo yeah, when i think Gen1 i think piraka torso and spine pieces, and I had a pair of piraka torsos conjoined by an L-bracket in my bin already for who knows what reason. Pardon the bad photos, i could not find my camera in time and had to borrow someone else's, oops!
  21. Ugghhh No one wants a Han Solo spin-off Han Solo probably would?
  22. i am pretty sure even with training there is an upper limit to how strong or fast a particular being can be without aid, Pohatu is strong, with good leg muscles, he can probably run pretty well as is, but his mask of speed makes him the fastest. Onua is already fairly strong, but his mask of strength makes him the strongest. and idk bout the spare kanohi nuva but i thought the ones on their faces were unintentional protodermis-based upgrades like the rest of their nuva gear? the nuva fetch quest really was an awkward collectable insertion thing >_>
