Blastcage Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 Found Protectors of fire, earth, water, and ice, and Tahu and Kopaka at Target today! Will build them soon.

Toa Green Ninja Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Oh nooooo... there's only one more Lewa in stock at my local Target. Won't be going until tomorrow... praying!

Blueblur21 Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 There aren't any Gali sets yet in Alaska but I'm hoping to see some anyway on the shelves sometime soon. Maybe tomorrow? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irrie Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 (edited) There aren't any Gali sets yet in Alaska but I'm hoping to see some anyway on the shelves sometime soon. Maybe tomorrow?It couldn't hurt to check, but I'd wait until after New Year's. They're probably going to get Gali by then, since that's the date Lego is going to start selling them on the website. Are anybody else's stores not carrying Gali and/or Onua? Odd how they are the only two that are missing.

Nescent Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 I've been handling Kopaka a lot, and his shield is pretty irritating. It looks cool, but when I want to move him around I just take the whole shield off. It's so big and kind of hard to position; the blades work much better as skis. The new head piece is pretty great. The brain stalk doesn't seem to light up as well as the Metru one, but I love how the mask fits on. There are indentations pointing towards the groove where the mask attaches, so if you blindly press the mask against the head, it is directed to the grooves. It's pretty satisfying to just slide the mask on, instead of sticking an axel in place. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegoSWfan Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 I'm passing on the new sets and getting a big haul of classic parts from eBay. Its a better use of money for me personally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blastcage Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Of the 4 Protectors I got, Earth is my favorite, no contest. Best build, and coolest looks IMO. Still need the stone and jungle Protectors though. As for Tahu and Kopaka...haven't built them yet, and may not until I've got the rest of the Toa. Guess I'm also kinda trying to savor this reboot as much as possible...Bionicle returning is a fantastic way to end 2014 and start 2015! 1 Quote @THE_Blastcage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdaptingChaos Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 (edited) Alright, I only need to build the Protectors of Water, Earth, and LOSS and I'll be finished. I can now definitively say that Bionicle 2015 has NO bad sets. 'Course I haven't finished them all, but I think that that will apply to the rest. Whooo! I have all the winter sets too!! I can honestly agree with you that no set was bad at all. I love the Protectors and its amazing to see the Toa on my shelf again! Now I cant wait for the Summer Wave! Hopefully its as good as this one! Edited December 27, 2014 by AdaptingChaos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nescent Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 I was cool with that ToaSalvus has to say, up until he said there was more value in buying the old sets.You can get a hundred 2015 parts for $20, or you can get 6 pounds of old parts for $40. I can understand someone going for the old parts, especially if they want to MoC and don't have a big collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toa Smoke Monster Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 I got Tahu, Kopaka, The Lord of Skull Spiders, and The Protector of Ice today. They are the first Lego sets I've bought since I got Tahu Stars back in 2010, and I'm really excited to see them in person. I won't be opening them tonight though. I want to save that experience for tomorrow. The next Toa I want to get are Onua and Gali. Then Lewa and Pohatu, and probably another Protector or two after that.

Xarok Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 I decided to check my local Toys R us, and oddly enough the only one there was Tahu, which happened to be one of the ones I was looking for. I'm really digging the new designs. It feels much brighter and more colorful than the sets from later on (2008 and on) which I really like. I also appreciate the use of gold which makes the golden mask less jarring. Overall, I really gotta say they did a really good job on the new sets, they're just really well put together. I love how they brought the gears back and it's sort of a return to the more tribal feel from the classic 2001 Bionicle.

LegoSWfan Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 I was cool with that ToaSalvus has to say, up until he said there was more value in buying the old sets.Yes, more value in buying them for me personally. As I do not care for CCBS and I see no point in paying $20 for a single CCBS figure when I can get several old style figures from ebay for the same price. I apologize for that post coming off as offensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regitnui Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Salvus, you obviously dislike 2015. Why do you keep hanging around the 2015 topics, then? We get you don't like it, but you don't have to keep reminding us. It's almost like if you stopped posting about your dislike of 2015, you'd start liking it. Please, let those of us who like the new sets&story enjoy it without having you constantly coming in and complaining. Thank you. In other news, I'm not likely to see 2015 sets for another two or three weeks! 3 Quote Elemental Rahi in Gen2, anyone? A write-up for an initial video for a G2 plot I really wish everyone would stop trying to play join the dots with Gen 1 and Gen 2 though,it seems there's a couple new threads everyday and often they're duplicates of already existing conversations! Or simply parallel them with a slightly new 'twist'! Gen 2 is NEW, it is NOT Gen 1 and it is NOT a continuation. Outside of the characters we already have I personally don't want to see ANY old characters return. I think it will cheapen the whole experience to those of us familiar with the original line...

re:Twilite Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Just picked up Pohatu and Tahu Pohatu has a really nice build. I like the added gear function because it adds depth to the figure.
