Toy Fair 2016: Bionicle (Video)


Recommended Posts

While we were at Toy Fair 2016 we managed to shoot some video of the summer Bionicle sets, showing off their functions, construction, and new pieces. We've edited it all and added a voiceover track to help give you guys a better look at what you can expect this June. You can read on to watch the video or head over to our YouTube channel and

. Let us know what you think in the Talkback!

Great to see in-hand footage of the new sets. I think this is one of the first times we've had this right? Really liking the tail function on Storm Beast. Really cool

Thanks for the coverage! Those new functions are really creative. From studying the photos, it looks like Lava Beast's weapons just rotate, and the gears are only there to add friction. Can anyone confirm that to be the case?

 

Quake Beast remains my favorite from the whole wave, although Storm Beast's function is extremely impressive.

This is some really great coverage of the 2016 summer sets. Umarak is still my favorite of the group. And I noticed in this video that his Destroyer form still has the chain from his Hunter form on his left shoulder. That is a nice little detail to keep from Umarak's original form onto this one.

Everyone is one choice away from being the bad guy in another person's story.

Wow. I still can't say I dig the aesthetics of these sets but man they have some really cool, original functions. Its hard to be mad at a less cohesive design when the functions are this unique. Especially Storm Beast. Wow, does that ever look ugly, but someone had to design that! So cool. I'm warming up more and more to these sets the more I see them. Thanks for the video!
