Toa Kohron Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 (edited) I believe mine was one of the McToran/Tohunga...can't remember which. It may have been Hewkii, but I might just be saying that cuz I have a thousand of him. First set that wasn't a promo? OG Tahu Mata. My favorite Toa, favorite set, and ONE OF my favorite characters. He's one of the only permanent sets not put away in the closet 24/7. Yup, fan since the beginning, fan for life. Even the new Gen 2 hasn't stopped me (although it almost did...it took some convincing). EDIT: First of G2 was (of course!) Tahu Master of Fire. I experienced that same "ooh, new set! New pieces! Idk how to put this together!" high that I feel like Bionicle lost once sets became (build-wise) predictable. Didn't stop me though.

W0bblez Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 I started out in 2001 with Onua, then once the Nuva came out I switched over to Lewa as I wasn't a real big fan of Onua Nuva. Now with the 2015 sets I'm getting everything Kopaka. I was going to get Lewa but I have not found it in stock in stores yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poxnixles Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 (edited) First sets were Turaga Whenua and Nokama in summer-ish of 2001, got something with the first comic along with them I think.

Evergrey: Toa of Music Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 I can't recall if I received the 2003 Makuta as a gift first or acquired Gali Nuva first...either one of those is 1st and the other is 2nd, then the rest...lol Quote Other great bands: Iron Maiden Journey Mercenary The Unguided Trivium Boston Stratovarius Symphony X Epica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Shadow Makuta Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Onua, actually. Back then I didn't even snap the eyepiece to the eye right. It fell off and was lost somewhere. Fortunately, I also bought the Kanohi pack so I got light green one for replacement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prowl Nightwolf Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 My first ever Bionicle was either The Po-McToran Huki, or Toa-Mata Onua. The First I got from as expected McDonalds kids meal the later I got for my Birthday at the end of June. Since I don't remember when McDonalds had their release I cannot say for sure but these two were my first. Followed closely by Lewa and Gali.

StoaxTheHistorian Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 One upon a time in the land of Duloc, it was Christmas of 2006 and my uncle gave me my first BIONICLE set, Brutaka. I didn't know anything about the story and who this character was, but I still build a majority of him. The rest I never finished, and a majority of his parts disappeared (even his awesome gold Olmak ). A year later I received the Po-Matoran, Dekar, and I manage to complete him and got somewhat into the story. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tremah Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 My first was Kopaka Mata. Loved him a lot. Alas, he's in awful condition now. Quote [flickr] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makuta Miras Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Dekar and Defilak were my first G1 sets, from a friend for my 6th birthday. They were quickly followed by Tahu and Kopaka Mata (Both missing masks), Nuparu Inika and Kongu Mahri. By 2008, I was hooked on the story (Bioniclestory was an excellent resource) and so I was completely ready to get completely over-hyped with Lewa Phantoka.

boston100 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Vakama hordika. It was in zellers and I was stuck between vakama and whenua but there were a ton of vakamas and only 1 whenua so I decided to go with vakama Quote As long as there is one bionicle fan out there there is still hope for bionicle to return. Keep faith. Bionicle is amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordvad3r95 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 (edited) I received my first ever Bionicle set that wasn't a McDonald's promotion during Christmas 2002, when I got Tahu Nuva. Fell in love instantly, played with him all the time, and I would eventually go on to get Hordika Matau and Inika Jaller, and I eventually got both Tahu and Lewa Mata. Through the course of many, many moves I lost most of the pieces and just recently found a Tahu Nuva set for $20. Of course, with G2 coming out, I bought the new Tahu and Kopaka. Kopaka is arriving today, while Tahu came yesterday. Already fell in love again. <3 Edited February 21, 2015 by lordvad3r95 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Millennium Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 In the distant 2002, a Pahrak. I remember I once folded it into the ball form and launched it, as if it was a baseball. Ah, silly me. Bought Pohatu Nuva and Pahrak Va almost immediately after Pahrak. Had a short-lasting love for brown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biff Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Mine was Tehutti. You know, the black 2004 matoran? My brother and I got all the matoran eventually in 2004 after starting with Ahkmou and Tehutti. We thought they were the coolest things ever! Then, two years later, I got Brutaka. Bye bye matoran.

steelviper77 Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 My first was Hewkii Inika, if I remember correctly. I'm a youngin so I joined in late, it was a present for a lost tooth since I had been begging my parents for it for ages. I had loved all of my brothers bionicles but he never let me play with them so when I finally got him I was so happy. Quote In honor of the anniversary, I'm making a signature. Neat.

Grungemeister Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I think I got into Lego a little bit late compared to many people, so my first set was Takadox. I thought it was so cool that he looked like a praying mantis. Then I got the other Barraki and the Mahri Nui Matoran.

KittehWubbins Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 The Piraka Avak set. It was actually my brother who got it for Christmas, I was more interested in the classic Lego. If we get technical, my personal first set was the new Lewa Nuva, the one from 2008. I now have all the classic Nuva, multiple Rahi and loads more old sets. If it weren't for my brother's interest in action figures, I probably wouldn't be here Quote DON'T MESS WITH US! NOTHING GETS PAST US! UNLESS WE WISH IT!
