Drowning in the sorrow of not being able to just walk out to the store and get me some Bionicle, I began thinking of the time I attempted to complete my G1 collection. My very first buy after the Glatorians, one set I desired from the very year I started to like Bionicle: This set was Keetongu. When the 2005 titans came out I didn't have money to buy them. I got both Sidorak and Roodaka for Día de Reyes and my birthday respectively, but Keetongu always stood as the first of my ever growing list of sets I couldn't get at the time. It was only two years ago, searching for Bionicle in MercadoLibre, that I finally came across him: withouth it's box or booklet, but in near perfect condition. I immediatly bought him. When it finally arrived it was disassembled, so with the help of online instruction I experienced a mix of past and future, the joy and nostalgia of putting together a new set and the relief that comes with the closing of a long cycle. Have you guys experienced something like this? Do you have a set you wanted but couldn't get at the time of its release and got later?

I was wondering what do you guys think the winter 2017 sets will be. If LEGO follows their current pattern it should be "heroes". I can't think of a good reason for the Toa getting new armor again in the story. If they continue to reflect g1 we should get new Toa in 2017. However, if the rumors are true and Bionicle is ending next year I don't see LEGO taking this route. So what will they be? Please share your thoughts. Edit: Thank you everyone for sharing your thoughts. Most of the comments seem to be a general outline of next year's sets but I was really wondering what you guys thought the sets would look like, for example: Tahu will look similar to g1 MN Vakama with a sleeker technical looking design or the villains will resemble the Bohrok and have firing weapons. Thank you all again.

The Mask of Ultimate Power was forged using all the elements. The creatures of Okoto were formed using an element for each. So when Mukuta created the MOUP in his anger, the mask became alive and fed off his dark thoughts. Upon wearing the mask it seized control of Mukuta and took over his body. After Ekimu managed to knock the MOUP off his brother's face, releasing Mukuta from it's control, the brothers were knocked into a deep sleep and the MOUP was "lost" to the shadows... The MOUP has summoned Umurak to find the Mask of Control and capture all the creatures. Succeeding the MOUP fuses them all together (Umurak, creatures, and beasts) to form it's own extremely overpowered body. Ekimu realizing they are no match for the "Master of Ultimate Power", comes up with a plan to unmake the MOUP. He connot do it on his own however, so Ekimu and the Toa go in search for Mukuta. Awakening Mukuta, Ekimu reveals his plan to use the Mask of Time. The Mask Makers will each use a half of the mask to trap the MOUP in a time paradox to dimensionally fragment it. Meanwhile the Toa use there combined power to contain him. Some other ideas: During the final battle with the MOUP, Ekimu and Mukuta are fused, because of a time anomaly caused by the Mask of Time. In the final battle the Toa are joined by other incarnations of themselves to take down the MOUP (this could connect G1 and G2). After the final battle the Toa remember who they are. They are the "formers" of the island of Okoto.Potential Sets: Ekimu and Mukuta (each wearing a half of the Mask of Time) combiner set. Both halves of the Mask of Time can be connected to form one mask.Master of Ultimate Power titian set. Colors black and trans. red. (Biggest Bionicle set ever released)Alternate Toa sets (possibly based off some G1 sets). I just wanted to share my thoughts. Please share your thoughts in the comments below.

Acquired Pohatu + Ketar. Let's start with Ketar. Ketar is... Ketar. A bit awkward constructed, if anything. Especially compared to the other creatures. Its back does not look pretty, which is bad since that's what you see from the sides and from the top. I don't understand why the glatorian necks that hold the arms have the axles of the gear pieces poking out through them. Why not use one of those Ikir uses to prevent the y-joints from having the axle pieces poke through them? It's just two small pieces and an incredibly simple solution that would go some way to improving Ketar's appearance. There's no reason not to have them. Then there's the tail. This really highlights why CCBS needs an equivalent of that y-joint variant that was common titan sets 2004-2006. Or instead of that, instead of the angled dual-connector thing, why not use one of the ordinary non-angled dual-connector and add one of those singular ball joints onto the end, then the CCBS bone portion of the tail? Along with some more bones to make the tail longer. Gives the tail articulation without sacrificing the function. And why the random gunmetal piece of unification? Ketar already has silver, Pohatu has silver, the only set that does have a gunmetal piece of unification is Umarak so there is really no reason for the piece of unification to be gunmetal instead of silver. As it is, it's one of the two colours really taking away from Ketar's colour scheme. The other is the dark brown. It would be fine if they were tan like the vorox armour piece and Pohatu's torso. or even silver. Also, I don't think the dark brown works well with the transparent neon green, not as much as burnt orange or dark tan do. I think the nicest thing I can say about Ketar is that Ketar looks fine as long as you look away from the torso. Pohatu, thankfully, is much better. He's the Toa of Stone. The silver works decently well. Though I'm not sure if the transparent neon green armour on the transparent green bones work. Transparent-on-transparent worked on Onua because transparent purple isn't as eye-blinding and only noticeable in bright light, but transparent neon green is very noticeable except in dim or no light. So it's a huge mass of bright in a set with otherwise dark colours. The shells should be dark tan or burnt orange rather than what they are. Preferably burnt orange. On a more positive note, I like the shoulders. Out of Kopaka, Lewa, and Pohatu, I think Pohatu makes the best use of Voroxiculus Scapulosis (commonly known as 'Vorox Shoulder Syndrome). It makes his shoulders look either wider than they are or narrower than they are, I can't really tell. But it does help carry a desert feel, especially with the lower part of the glatorian neck exposed and the bohrok teeth. He's got a pretty nice weapon. Simple, but it works. It's not a spear (spears have shorter blades, I think) and the rock is nice. Strangely, the crystal piece Pohatu uses seems to be blended between silver and a very odd shade of transparent green. It's not quite transparent neon green, as in some lights it resembles the transparent regular green Uxar and Umarak use. But it's not transparent regular green either. So I don't know what colour it is exactly, but it's a weird colour. I like the new mask of Pohatu. If only because the top has more detailing on it. Last year, Pohatu looked a bit bald (especially with the drained version of the mask) after a while and that bothered me. Unification: ...I don't even know. Pohatu gains... not armour. Not wings. Something. It's something. It doesn't really look as good as the other unifications. Nor does it look good. Nor does it give Pohatu anything useful. Ketar's just a weight on Pohatu's back that doesn't add anything useful. Ketar's blade-claw-things aren't useful since they have extremely limited articulation while not having that great a reach while on Pohatu's back, and the tail's too short to give Pohatu a stinger tail. The legs are too short to wrap around Pohatu's torso to give him extra armour, and it just ends up looking odd if you try. I totally get why Pohatu hates scorpios now - they make him carry then on his back, and give nothing useful. If anyone can make sense of Pohatu's useless unification, it's not me. Ketar, Ketar. Worst creature, worst unification.

So I went to my Barnes and Noble today, in the hopes of getting both Bionicle: Gathering of the Toa and Bionicle: Revenge of the Skull Spiders. They didn't have the latter yet, so I was only able to get Gathering of the Toa. At least they had it on the shelves, unlike when I went there to get Island of Lost Masks. For that one I had to ask for it, and they had to go to the back to get it for me. To compensate for not getting Revenge of the Skull Spiders, I decided to see if they had any 2016 Bionicle sets, and as it turned out they did. They only had a few of them, and they were mixed in with 2015 Bionicle sets. But I did find the one I was looking for: Umarak the Hunter. The store only had one on the shelf, and he was hidden behind other sets. But I did find him and now he's mine. Though it may be a while before I build him. I still haven't built my Skull Warrior and General Grievous sets, and I kind of want to build them first before getting to Umarak. But I'll post my thoughts on all of them, including the graphic novel, when I finally build or read them. Sometime in the future.

What sets do you think are overrated? Those sets that everyone loved, but you never really caught on to the hype for? Why?

So, hey guys, I was just pondering the deep thoughts. What really makes G2 Bionicle BIONICLE? I mean, they could've called it Stommicle or something like that (though they wouldn't of, because, y'know marketing). What makes this reboot the Bonkle we all know and love? I mean, yes, there are similar concepts and characters with the same names and powers, but what is the inherent Bionicle-ness of G2?

What LEGO Ninjago sets or minifigures would you like to see in the future? They can be characters and costumes from Ninjago media like the TV show and graphic novels, or new characters and costumes you dream up! In this topic, you don't have to limit yourself to what's realistic. Yes, I know characters like Seliel from the LEGO Ninjago graphic novels aren't likely to ever appear as figs. But if that's a fig you'd like released, you're welcome to suggest it here! I'll start off. I'd love to see "Airjitzu Nya Flier" and "Airjitzu Lloyd Flier" sets, similar to this year's Airjitzu fliers. They would come with brand-new Airjitzu Nya and Airjitzu Lloyd minifigures. I don't know if there's ever any chance of this happening, but we know Lloyd already officially has Airjitzu in the story from when he was possessed by Morro, and I think Nya should get the opportunity to learn Airjitzu as well! The Airjitzu minifigures are very stylish and it would be exciting to see what they would look like for Nya and Lloyd's elements. I'd also like to see stone armor versions of Jay and Cole (from Episode 34 "The Titanium Ninja"). We got stone armor versions of Zane and Lloyd in set 70728 Battle for Ninjago City and a stone armor version of Kai will be appearing in this year's Target-exclusive minifigure cube (one of which was somehow obtained and auctioned off at BrickFair Virginia). But Jay and Cole are still left out. I'm not sure what would be a good opportunity to release those figs, but I would like an opportunity to add them to my collection! And as silly as it is, I'd like a Kendo Lloyd minifigure. Last year's minifigure cube included a Lloyd DX minifigure, a costume Lloyd has never officially worn. He wasn't even a ninja when that costume was current! But it still looked awesome. And the nice thing about a Kendo Lloyd minifigure is that it'd have a 2011-style costume for Lloyd underneath! So together with Lloyd DX's hood, it'd be like getting two new costumes in one!

This is something I've been thinking about ever since I saw a review for the First Order Threepio figure. I was very impressed with the amount of detail put into the figure, but I started to think: is this too detailed? Is it less of a minifigure and more... something else? Looking through recent sets, I've seen the frequent use of smooth slope pieces to get better shapes. Now that's cool and all, but sometimes sets feel less like Lego and more like a scale replica. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying everything needs to be 2x4s, but I do feel that there is a line Lego has started to wander on the wrong side of. So what are your thoughts? Should things be a bit simpler? Should they continue to make things smoother and add more printing to figures? Or something else?
-
Do not hate me, but personally, I really liked the playsets back in '05-'07. I wish they did it back in '08 so I can get to see minifigures of Ouna, Lewa, Tahu, and many many more. But then again, Weren't the playsets not that popular?
-
This is sort of an odd topic, but it's something that interests me. So obviously all LEGO pieces have their official names, and some have commonly used fan names. But are there any names you use for certain pieces? For example, I refer to the "Agori Head" as the "Hero Factory Head" because it was used on 1.0 Heroes which I knew about before Bara Magna. The same goes for "Bohrok eyes", I call them "Trifighter eyes", because I got the Star Wars trifighter set before I knew of the Bohrok.
-
What do you guys think were the best LEGO themes? Personally, I think that Agents (2008) Power Miners, and Exo-Force were great because of their originality and play value.
-
Do you guys know of any sets or pieces that were recalled for any reason? The only ones I can think of are WALL-E (neck strength issue) and the Ant-Man Final Battle (wrong leg pieces or something)
-
What things do you think a set could have included to be better? Another figure or mask, a certain function or whatever else? Also, please don't post ideas for entirely new sets. We already have that here: http://www.bzpower.com/board/topic/19741-what-bionicle-set-would-you-include/ Personally, I think LoSS would have been the perfect place for the last two Skull Spider variants.

I've noticed many of my golden pieces from 2003-2006 turned dark in time, and I really wish I could do sometthing about it. When my Avohkii went dark I bought another one but soon enough the new one went dark as well. Has anyone else experienced this problem? I believe it's because my house is quite humid. Is there a solution, a way to revert the process? My Lhikan mask turned dark, but years later it went back to its original color without explaination. So far I've tried bicarbonate, lemon juice, ammonia, peroxide, soap, salt, leaving the piece in the sun for a couple of hours, casting the piece in boiling water, putting it in a peroxide glass and leaving it in the sun. No results at all. Here are some pictures of the pieces: 1 2 3 4 So, what do you think?

What is your favorite BIONICLE animation, not counting movies? Mine would have to be the Phantoka short. It just means a lot to me. Although a close second is the Barakki one. I love how they fight over the Ignika and then Dekar's like "lol okay my turn" and then all the Barakki team up on him.

Does anyone know why Kopeke's appearance changed so drastically from the MNOG to his 03 toy? I would like to know if there is an explanation.
-
What is your favorite year of Bionicle, taking into account sets, comics, and other media? Please answer the poll and explain why in a reply. Mine personally would be 2008. The Adaptive Armor is my favorite design for any Toa, and finding out that the Makuta were a species was cool. There were also a lot of cool sets released in 2008.
-
What is your ultimate dream in terms of BIONICLE sets or collectibles? It can be anything, big or small. Personally, I would like to get every set from 2008. That is the year of BIONICLE I remember most vividly, and, unlike most people, I REALLY like the Adaptive Armor. I hope the title doesn't count as religious discussion.
-
This could definitely be considered a general LEGO discussion, but I'm talking specifically in terms of Bionicle. Which system do you like better? I like the pistons-and-gears look of the old pieces, but CCBS is really great and provides a more universal building choice. Sometimes I like to use 'old school' pieces on my MOCs, but generally I prefer CCBS. Have fun and take the nostalgia goggles off if you can.
-
I can't stop making these topics. Can I get banned for that? Anyways, what is the rarest BIONICLE set or collectible that you own? Honestly, I have nothing at all that I would consider rare. I have yet to get any special items, although I do have three Hero Packs on the way. Have fun and don't flame or attack anyone please!
-
This is a topic for you to share your latest Bionicle purchase. Did you get a good deal? Find something rare? Let everyone know! Also, please don't attack/flame anyone. Some people have better luck than the rest of us! Just today I got three of the 2015 Hero Pack for 8 USD shipped.

What is your favorite group of Bionicle sets? By that I mean like the Toa Inika, or the the Piraka, or anything like that. Why is it your favorite? Personally, my favorite would be the Toa Mahri. I really liked watching the team develop from the beginning, and the Mahri designs were awesome. They were able to look like a unified group but still have unique designs.
