Hapori Tohu Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 The official LEGO Bionicle Facebook page has released the second Bionicle 2016 character video, this time focusing on Lewa, Uniter of Jungle. In this 15-second video (made up of clips from LEGO Bionicle: The Journey to One), Lewa shows off his elemental Jungle abilities as well as his incredible agility and his ability to fly when united with Uxar, Creature of Jungle. We also see him fight some Skull Spiders, which are apparently not out of the picture just yet. Follow the link above to watch the video!

Rahkshi Lalonde Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 good to see more use of elemental powers, there's plenty of plant-slinging going on here. o: 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J46 Nui Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 (edited) So they are pronouncing Lewa differently than they used to (LEE-wah instead of LAY-wah). The change doesn't bother me at all, but it is weird that they changed it.

Toa Smoke Monster Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Its great to see some Skull Spiders in this. I'm glad that they are not out of the story just yet. And maybe, just maybe, this could mean that some of the Skull Villains could make an appearance as well. Like the Skull Warriors and Skull Scorpios, for example. I would really like to see them in this if possible. Oh, and I guess I should also say that Lewa looks great here. Quote Everyone is one choice away from being the bad guy in another person's story.

Aanchir Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 So they are pronouncing Lewa differently than they used to (LEE-wah instead of LAY-wah). The change doesn't bother me at all, but it is weird that they changed it. "LEE-wah" is how it was pronounced in last year's webisodes, as well as how it was pronounced in Bionicle: Mask of Light. Since those are the main places I'm used to hearing it out loud, it would probably be more jarring to me if they had used the official G1 pronunciation "LAY-wah". 1 Quote Latest MOC: PAIGE (Prototype Artificial Intelligence, Gynoid Expression) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could make it a running joke where LoSS shows up and gets defeated every year. 1 Quote The artist formerly known as ŜﮞρЄЯ־GЄNіﮞŜ־CЯЄ▲Ŧ۞Я BBC#69 Entry: Roodaka - Master of Manipulation BFTGM entries: Zigben · Ventox · Deflecto “Hail Denmark.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bfahome Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 This is a really cool video and it almost made me want to buy Lewa. I'll settle for being more excited for the series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has been a while since I have seen MoL, so I just assumed that the pronunciation found on BS01 was how it was said. Now I am confused as to why BS01's pronunciation is different from what it is usually pronounced as.

Lenny7092 Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Man, I love the animation! It's great to see Lewa using his Jungle powers. It's very amazing that he pushed a bunch of trees away from him and use roots from underground to surprise attack little enemies. Plus, I think I saw a Skull Spider, too. It's always great to see it return in 2016. Quote I like Lego, Bionicle, and Hero Factory! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishers64 Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 I hope they don't just repeat last years story in the new series...or devote a lot of the series to recaps. Quote Hero Factory RPG | Bionicle Mafia XXIX: Storyline & Theories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alyska Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Considering all the ways Lewa has been pronounced over the years... I recall in one of the set reveal videos, the designers from Denmark called him "Layva". So if their "w" sounds like a /v/, that means they now call him "Leeva"... which is exactly the same as how the narrator for the web series pronounces the word "lever"... So a Dane watching the English language web series would be very confused by this exchange: Lewa: What... happened?Onua: I hit the Lewa!Lewa: Without breaking anything?
