Guardian Legend

I never completely got into G2, but after G1 ended, I went even further into the Pokemon and Ben 10 fandom. Since Ben 10 died, that turned into Doctor Who. Also, in grad school now. 

I was unaware of this. But in practical terms, as already mentioned, it would have equaled less money for Lego. As for the story, I assume Earth would end up controlling stone as well, and Water encompassing ice. I'm glad they added Kopaka and Pohatu though. Kopaka adds a much need rivalry and competition forTahu, and Pohatu comradery for all. 

The first two are actually really amazing. To bad these weren't official or didn't make it into the canon to some degree. Glad we have them now though! 

It was around 2003, when my cousin gave me his spare Tahu Mata set, brand new. After that, I quickly got into it, reading all the books and going back and buying all the previous sets. Catching up on the sets did take some time though, as I was only 9 years old I believe.

Kanohi-Garai. I feel gravity control is over powered and wearing this mask practically grants one two elemental powers. 

Looks-Arthron. Even with the tubes, I still think it's one of the best looking masks thus far.

Hmm, this is a tough one, and I usually find something I like in every set at least...but, I'd have to say Gadunka. It was the last and final 2007 set I needed to complete that collection and I actually got it that Christmas, along with all the Phantoka. I had initially held out because I just didn't like the design, and it wasn't an important character. After building it however, I found out I did indeed like it, and I think it is a unique set.  

Well Krekka is the obvious answer to me at least. I'd also say that a lot of characters did many stupid things, but that didn't make them stupid overall. What Mata Nui did was ignorant and stupid, but he wasn't dumb. Now if this was an ignorance contest, Mata Nui, hands down. 

Well I finally got around to reading it. Without spoilers, I enjoyed it for what it was worth. I think it could have been longer, specifically for each journey with the Toa finding there masks. The ending was also very rushed, as has been stated. Overall it got the job done of fleshing out characters, especially the protectors, which I appreciate. Hopefully they only get better from here. It was very nice being able to buy BIONICLE book. It's been a long time. 

In the case of Jaller, Takutanuva used a part of his own lifeforce to trigger Jaller's restoration. With Takanuva, there was no such instance, so we go by the book description and say that he survived by splitting the fusion and leaping out of the way while Teridax got crushed--hence, Takanuva needed no reviving, since there was no other means by which to do so.

That's how I always saw it too. I just figured the Takutanuva using up some of his life force to revive Jaller ended up  weakening him to the point where the fusion split. Takanuva shot out in one direction, and Teridax under the door that crushed his armor. 

*Tries not to read any comments* Well, I just bought my first BIONICLE book in what, 6 years is it? Looking forward to reading it once I finish my other book.

 

The prices.

Really, you think so? Bionicle has always been one of the lowest-priced LEGO series, all things considered, and that hasn't changed a bit with the reboot. Out of over 250 Bionicle sets released to date, only 40 were priced higher than $20, and only ten were priced higher than $50. No Bionicle set has EVER cost more than $90 at retail. Contrast LEGO City, one of the LEGO Group's current top-selling brands, which since its launch in 2005 has had thirty sets priced at $90 or higher, and seven this year alone!

 

Eh, for him, maybe it's expensive. Price is always a subjective topic, and while you have your facts straight, that doesn't make it less expensive to him. To me and you, it might not be so bad. But him, maybe. 

Well I guess maybe we don't know for sure that they are uninhibited, but I'd guess they would be uninhabited by matoran if they were so dangerous? 

The Codrex, like everybody is saying. I'd also venture to say that possibly the uninhabited islands from the MU's southern areas (Mata Nui's legs). If they were just rocky islands, then there really isn't anything to really destroy, is there?. As for what we know is certainly destroyed, Metru Nui. Metru Nui is beyond a doubt, gone. 

Am I the ONLY one who likes the Inika build? It was used so much because it's effective and simple for people to understand. If you're just looking for a quick build, it's there, and you don't have to use 20 pieces on a single joint.

No, I had no problem with the build, or similar ones, such as the Piraka one. 

I'm going to go with no, not because it logically makes sense, but actually because it's already happened with Toa of Stone not being able to control sand. Also, a lightning element already exists, thus adding to much overlap. 

There are a lot, but if I had to guess, launchers in general, Inika molds being recycled, the serials not being finished, the change to yellow/orange from brown, and personally I never liked the BIONICLE Stars line.

Probably dead, but since I'd want to be a Toa of  Magmatism, wearing a Garai, I'd like to think that maybe I could be a useful, and possibly over powered member, of the anti-Tuyet resistance. 

Back in the day, I didn't really hide that I liked BIONICLE, because I honestly didn't care what others thought about my liking it. Then it ended when I was halfway through High School, and I fell out of LEGO until G2 came out. Now I have a select number of close friends that I actually care what they think , and even if they do judge my collections/hobbies, they do not say anything, and that's perfectly fine. They are not into it, thus we do not discuss it, such as how I'm not into somethings they like, and we don't talk about them either. 

I am so bored of these threads.

 

It's a reboot. End of.

So don't post in them.

Yeah I just checked and there is. 

No, I completely understand. At least if this thread manages to contain all theories, it won't seem as if these types of threads are everywhere. 

Guys! Here's my connection theory:

 

There IS NO connection! 

I know, right? It's kind of outrageous, but maybe we can headcannon it and ask Greg to canonize it!!1!1!!1

This is the story line and theories thread... I've noticed you like to constantly point out there is no connection, and we all already know that. We just like to speculate and theorize. No need to get angry. Also, Greg F has already confirmed there is no connection, so there will be no need to go running to him. 

Congratz, OP, this is the best cohesion theory i have read thus far. 

Thanks! It popped into my head one day while I was at the gym and then before I knew it, I was done working out and instantly had to go to my computer to type it out. 

Also, I think that maybe there should be an official G1-G2 thread where everybody can post their theories like mine. It might make the forum a bit less cluttered.  

Most of the older G1 sets I have taken apart for various reasons, but some of the my favorites ares still stored away in a tub in my closet. My room is filled with my other collectibles and right now, the G2 Toa and Kulta are on a shelf. 

2008. The 2006-2008 story has always been my favorite and who could forget the ending with Teridax forming the Kraahkan in the stars over Metru Nui and proclaiming that he won, and he's banished Mata Nui?! Even though I know what happens afterwards, I still love that scene in the comics.
