Nidhiki of the Shadows Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Hmm, well the line-up for sets has certainly changed since Hero Factory took Bionicle's spot, so its possible that a duo-set like that could surface. I honestly wouldn't be surprised, especially since this year has taken a drastically different approach compared to the G1 Bionicle set line-up. -NotS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ektris Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Huh, I hadn't entertained the thought of a two-pack... Ekimu is definitely coming at some point (that mask will see a release somehow), and I do hope we see that form of Makuta. But their implied implied size being between that of the Protectors and Toa would put them at an awkward spot in determining a price point. But throw them together and now it's its own thing. I could see something like that going for 25-30 USD. ~|ET|~ Quote E-T... Phone home. "He walks among us, but he is not one of us." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegoSWfan Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Ekimu would look a little more like Onua, i coulds see the hammer being a Gatling gunO_O that would be cool! Smash and perforate! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owlexander Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 I would love a special edition Mask Maker set. That'd be AWESOME just as a set as well as for building MOCs.

bioniclepluslotr Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 (edited) The animations show him being larger than the Protectors, about Toa sized, so maybe a canister set? Cause it seems they did away with the 6 color sets a wave with LoSS being a 7th misc one.

Toa Green Ninja Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 There's now some new things that could happen with an Ekimu set, due to the Prophecy of Heroes animation. Honestly, I wouldn't mind a gold and teal Protector mask, AS LONG AS we still get a Mask of Creation elsewhere. Quote "We didn't lose the battle.

Honestly, I wouldn't mind a gold and teal Protector mask, AS LONG AS we still get a Mask of Creation elsewhere.Considering Ekimu's still the most likely candidate to wear the Mask of Creation, I still think he's likely to be the subject of the set that includes it. Perhaps it could include both masks (like the Toa)? Also I'd be willing to bet that Ekimu uses Trans. Light Blue rather than any sort of "teal". 3 Quote Formerly Lyichir: Rachira of Influence Aanchir's and Meiko's brother Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wazdakka Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 I doubt we'd see an Ekimu set, considering he's dead before the story really begins. Quote Steam Name: Toa Hahli Mahri.

Daler99 Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 (edited) I doubt we'd see an Ekimu set, considering he's dead before the story really begins. I'm a bit confused about that, story wise. "Dead" Ekimu whispers to the Protectors about the Prophesy of Heroes? Maybe they described Ekimu as "lifeless" because he is in an eternal sleep?

Aanchir Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 I doubt we'd see an Ekimu set, considering he's dead before the story really begins.Is he really dead, though? I think it's more likely that he's merely comatose. Possibly reuniting him with the Mask of Creation might restore him to life. If we don't get an Ekimu set, the question becomes "how will the Mask of Creation be distributed?" Judging from the 14-karat gold version, a mold exists, so it HAS to appear in sets at some point. LEGO generally doesn't make new molds for parts that aren't going to be made available at retail. 2 Quote Latest MOC: PAIGE (Prototype Artificial Intelligence, Gynoid Expression) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toa Borox Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 It's entirely possible we'll get the Mask of Creation in a set that's not Ekimu, you know. Quote Political content removed. -B6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aanchir Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 It's entirely possible we'll get the Mask of Creation in a set that's not Ekimu, you know.Yes, but if it's not Ekimu, then it's a complete mystery who it might be. I personally think an Ekimu set is very likely, since he has a unique character design with built-in play value. 1 Quote Latest MOC: PAIGE (Prototype Artificial Intelligence, Gynoid Expression) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nescent Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 I really doubt that they would put so much emphasis on a character and not make a set for him. I know I would be disappointed if he doesn't show up in set form at some point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krana Ja Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 I think that, since Ekimu's dead now, it's pretty unlikely that we'll be getting him in set form. If we get a set that has the Mask of Creation, it's going to be either a new character or an upgraded form of one of the Toa. Of course, they could also just bring him back to life MoL style, but if they do that he'll probably look different so that his set can be larger.

All I remember hearing is that he fell into an "endless sleep." It's entirely possible that he will be awoken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bioniclepluslotr Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 The story's barely been revealed. There's probably many other characters that will come into play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
