Zeb Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Wait? Onuas sleepy? What? "Onua is grounded and wise. He likes to spend his time alone meditating under the stars. Like an underground cave, receptive and silent. And... Snoring! Though Onua rarely says a word, the other heroes have come to respect this sleepy giant. They know that when he speaks, his crude voice caries guidance and wisdom."- Bionicle.com Onua character bio. EDIT: Sorta Kapura'd dang it! Anyway, while we've got Onua Golf I think we need Pohatu Soccer and Gali Swimming: Michael Phelps Edition. Don't forget Tahu Lava Surfing, Lewa Sky Gliding, & Kopaka Skiing! Anyone else feel like Lewas new mask looks rather reptilian? Not that that's a bad thing. To me, it kind of looks like a cross between Matau Hordika's headpiece and Iron Man's face plate. Though I also get a 'lizard' vibe from looking at the mask, so I guess I sort of see a reptilian look to it. It does look sort of reptillian, but do you know what looks even MORE reptillian? I decided to make a 2015 Takanuva in LDD!His armor is gold and trans-yellow, and the parts that look white are "white glow."His battle staffs can combine to create a halberd. The savage planet armor on his thighs is actually bionicle 2015 armor bits.His primary mask is gold, while his secondary mask is white glow with a trans yellow blending like the protector of fire.Cool! I really want to see this eventually in Gen 2 Bionicle. Especially if it has glow-in-the-dark bones. It makes him look like he's a pilot of... something. Possibly himself.What if all the new Toa are Exo-Toa being piloted by their original counterparts?Aha! I knew there would be a giant robot somewhere in G2. What if that winds up being Gen 2's big story engine? Get ready for 2022, everyone. It makes him look like he's a pilot of... something. Possibly himself.What if all the new Toa are Exo-Toa being piloted by their original counterparts? Actually, I bet all of the beings in Gen2 are just robots controlled by Nuparu, since he got bored one day. This reminds me of someone of the Lego Message Boards making a theory that the entire Hero Factory universe is a game being played by a Bionicle called Makuhero. Credit to Bfahome.I want to see a Creeper-fied Lewa mask now... [snip] Credit to Bfahome.Best thing since Lewa - Taster of Jungle. Before he can master it, first he must taste it. Perhaps I should commission someone to turn all the 2015 masks into minecraft animals. DO IT.

Blastcage Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 That's my plan. You mean buying after Christmas?

Klack Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 (edited) That's my plan. You mean buying after Christmas? I'm only waiting because my funds are a bit low at the moment...but such is the life of a gamer and Masterpiece Transformers collector! My original plan was to buy all the sets at once, but like you , there's a lot of games coming out so I gotta save at least 80$. So I'm going to buy all the Toa (maybe LoSS), wait for my pay check again, and buy the rest of the sets.

LegoSWfan Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 No games out for me right now, I only have one masterpiece (I usually stick with generations) and am simply waiting for the Toa to reach shelves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeb Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 (edited) Concerning the discussion of whether or not the Golden Mask of Skull Spiders = the Mask of Control or not, I would think not. The Mask of Control is hiding somewhere in the island, and if they're going the route of 2016: Find Mask of Control & 2017: Find Mask of Ultimate Power, then it doesn't make sense for the Mask of Control to have already been found. I seriously doubt the Lord of Skull Spiders found the Mask of Control, because then technically he could just use it to control the Toa. Also, what role do you think the Temple of Time will play in the story? They pretty much confirmed the existence of a Mask of Time at NYCC, and since the Temple of Time is in screenshots from the animations, it's going to show up pretty soon. Maybe it is the dimensional gate between Gen 1 & Gen 2 and the Mask of Time and Gen 1 Vahi are connected through a trans-time-and-dimensional link and they are 2 parts to a complete Time Mask that would have ultimate control over time. EDIT: My rank goes from Aquatic Guardian to Stalwart Defender. Is something ending with "Protector" coming next?

Nidhiki of the Shadows Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Just got back from TRU and couldn't help but notice the mountains of shipping boxes from LEGO on top of the shelves that weren't there last week... I do so wonder (read: hope) what could be in there. ~|ET|~Oh man! I went to TRU as well and saw some empty shelves... I can only wonder and hope.

NickonAquaMagna Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 (edited) Mata Nui... it's the promised land. I haven't seen it in years. I too have seen these boxes... Guys, they always have boxes like that. If you read the labels stamped on them, they're usually just more of the same sets that are already on the shelves to restock them with. Still... there is a chance. You could always ask if they have any sets in the back of the building. They'll just bring it out to you and you can pay for it on the spot.

They'll just bring it out to you and you can pay for it on the spot.In my experience, it's not that easy. If the sets are all in the back of the building, then chances are that they aren't allowed to be brought out yet. So unless the employee you are asking is inclined to bend the rules for you, he probably won't let you buy one of the sets in question.

Irrie Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 I dunno, I might go to Wal-Mart just for tradition's sake. I bought all of my first sets there, even though TRU will probably have a bigger stock of them. Meh, maybe I'll just go to TRU instead. I think that that would be appropriate for buying all thirteen of the sets at once. Quote bZpOwEr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adventurer Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Oh man those old displays got me hyped. Most of the stores I visit these days tend to have Lego sections smaller than that so the Bionicle section is relegated to one set of shelving. 1 Quote Credit to Pohuaki for the awesome banner!
