Kopekemaster Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 I like the Rahkshi canisters, and I liked the look of the Barraki canisters, although I can't remember how good they actually were. I also liked the Piraka canisters, because they had the cool little Piraka mask thing on them. The Inika canisters were cool because they had all the Zamor spheres visible from the top. I most certainly did not like the Mistika canisters, because they were practically impossible to open. I would get it open, and, in the process, break apart my Krika.

DeLaSouth Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 The Karda Nui Matoran containers were so difficult to put the lids on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiakor Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Least favorite: The Mahri...they weren't even canisters in my opinion!Favorite: I did like the creativity of the hanging a Bohrok down in its canister. Seems legit. Who wants to play Kolhii? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dwanny Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 I gotta give credit to the bohrok canisters. the barraki canisters were cool too.I DID hate the toa Metru canisters. so... drab. Find me over here! http://danielvangele.tumblr.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeatherDragon Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 The Mistika Canisters are my favorite. They are completely epic. They are symbolic and reflect the story.But least favorite....? Hm, from what I know...the Piraka's are not too special...The Mahri are too hard to put back together (though they look epic).

Indigogeek Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Loved the mata canisters, as they could be used for storyline, and of course, the bohrok. Loved the hang in the canister aspect. Least favorite would be 08-09. They were all the same, and ugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WORT WORT WORT Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Hmm, those ones we had starting with the Inika, ending with the Legends, i dislike them because of their size... . ...<--- kfghdjkfhdgmn; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toa Of Virtues Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 I just liked it when the canister fit in with the storyline, maybe the toa metru canisters were the best. And the epicness of the Barraki sets goes without saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nomad Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 My favorite canisters have to be a tie between the Bohrok canisters and the Inika canisters. The Metru canisters weren't that great in my opinion. Signature Guidelines: Avatar and signature total file size may not exceed 100 KB! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Guard Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Title should just about say it all. Not sure if this is allowed, but I remember there was a topic on the old forums just like it that was okay.My favorites are probably the '07 Barraki and Mahri canisters. The Mahri canisters seemed to have an expanded amount of playability, like the barrier things or whatever where you could mount the Cordak Blaster on the canister exterior. There were a lot of other ways to use it - a similar way with the Metru canisters, where you could take the tops of the canisters and make Matoran spheres.Least favorite would have to be the Mistika canisters - they were so hard to open, honestly. >_<See the obvious section? Didnt know that. You sir, are awesome.Also, I like the mistika cans. Free mask of life doohikey. Loved the design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overlord Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 My favorite was definitely the Toa Metru canister design. The lid was quite easily the best BIONICLE canister lid ever made, and the canister itself was compact and utilitarian. Shame that it was one of the few canister designs they didn't really reuse.My least favorite, if I think of them all as canisters, was the Toa Mahri box thing. Its rim was acceptable as a piece to build with, but... not a canister, really.~~ "YOU'D THINK, FOR BEING A DEAD MAN, I'D BE MORE TRIUMPHANT THAN I AM."

Rani Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 My favorite would be the Toa Mata canisters, least favorite the Inika ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ballom Nom Nom Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 My favorite canister design would be that of the Toa Metru, which I even used for a decent MOC, seen here. My least favorite would probably be the Mahri ones, due to their odd shape, which did not provide anything useful. You couldn't even store them, unlike most of the other sets.~B~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metrunui955 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 (edited) I don't like the Barraki, Inika, and the Phantoka Canisters. The canisters I like are the Mahri, Mistika, and the Toa Metru canisters. Edited July 20, 2012 by metrunui955 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toa Turing Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 My Favorite would probably be the round canisters of old. My least favorite would probably be the Phantoka canisters. Instead of a real lid they had a cheesy front cover. I really need a better signature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kopaka25 Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 I think the best ones were the Toa Mata canisters, for story significance, the twisting feature and you could store your collected masks on it. I didn't actually mind the Mahri canisters (it that's the right word). I think the worst were the Mistika canisters. "Where wisdom and valor fail, all that remains is faith.

Terra Nuva Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 The Bohrok hanging was pretty cool. As was the Piraka with the light up piece in the canister.I hated the second wave in the Karda Nui series because I needed the jaws of life to open them.

25K Now! Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 I loved the Toa Metru canisters, just for the fact that they were twistable, the covers could be connected with each other, and could stick disks to the top.I rather disliked the Barraki canisters though. You could not imagine how long it took for me to open one. http://vimeo.com/198967785 BZPRPG Profiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meiko Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 I liked the Toa Metru canisters feature-wise, but I've always liked the classic Mata canisters. My least favorite would have to be the Barraki canisters, since they were all tilted and annoying to store. -- Meiko - @georgebarnick LUG Ambassador and administrator at Brickipedia News reporter and database administrator at Brickset Administrator at BIONICLEsector01 DISCLAIMER: All opinions and contributions made under this account are based solely on my own personal thoughts and opinions, and in no way represent any of the above groups/entities.

LQ1998 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 My favorite was the original toa mata design. Barraki was my least favorite, I couldn't fit them with my others. "Not luck. It's what you do that makes you a hero." -Toa Kopaka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowBionics Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 My favorite... To this day, I still really like the Inika canisters. The first time I saw one and got one, I was just amazed at the size and how awesome it was that the weapon and zamor spheres were there. They weren't awesome of course when you had the possibility of someone who "tried" the light up feature too much. The original Toa Mata Canisters were also very cool. While I've lost most of them, I still have Tahu's canister. I remember first time I saw one of them, I liked the look of them and how you could slide the label thing around and you got to see a glimpse at the story, the gear function, the mask codes, etc.I like how the canisters from the old days used to play a part in the story, like the Toa canisters were supposed to be the ones they arrived in, the Bohrok ones were where they slept, the Rahkshi ones were where like those tubes where Makuta had them, and so on. Too bad that sort of stopped after 2006 or so.My least favorites would probably be the Phantok and Mistika. The Mistika because they were nearly impossible to open. I almost hit something because of the knock-back from the first time I opened Gorast. The Phantoka because I didn't like how the colored plastic part didn't stay all that well, especially after the tape keeping it in place would wear off. The colored plastic part looked cool, though.

The First Speaker Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 My favorites would have to be the Bohrok/Kal canisters. The funtion that allowed you to put them in 'sleep mode' was just uberly cool.As for least favorites, probably any of the post-Barrakki ones. Too much plastic and hard to open sometimes.

~ShadowBolt~ Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Best were the og Toa Mata canisters while the worst were the Mahri ones. You could barely use them for storage. Thanks to Argetlam for the Banner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fauxname Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 The best were the Bohrok canisters, because of the way they are able to store the set. The Metru canisters looked cool with the two lids=sphere function, but I never owned the canister, as my only Metru was found loose in a box of Lego sets my cousin gave me. The worst were the Barraki and the Mahri. Even though though the Barraki looked great, and the Mahri had a function I used maybe once, they were too hard to store. I'm a dinosaur! Rawr.

Solaris Magnus Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Bohrok/Toa Mata/Toa Nuva/Bohrok-Kal. ALl of those canisters had a secondary purpose, and the Hanging Bohrok was really cool back in the day. So was the suva feature of the Toa Mata.The worst is a tie between the Mahri and the Av-Toran/Agori. They were paper with a small piece of plastic that could be a display or a stand, but was not well executed. They also could not function at all as storage.-Star Solaris Magnus. Formerly Starparu.

Rama~Swarm Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 (edited) While I was never a big fan of the Bohrok, I always loved how their canisters.I can't say I ever had a least favorite since I more or less stopped buying after the Kal were released and never experienced the other canisters.

dee.3x3 Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 The Toa Mata canisters were pretty cool, as they could be used as a Suva as well as Toa Canisters. The Bohrok canister were very cool too, in the way that you could display your Bohrok in themAs for least favourite, probably the Hordika/Visorak. I thought they were a little boring, and they didn't have any story significance. At least the Toa Metru lids could become the Matoran ball things.

northmarch Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Mata and Bohrok. Story significance, easy storage, displays kanohi/ displays hanging set. Basically they were unquestionably the best. Oh, and metallic lids! Least favorite, probably the barraki, they look awesome but... Tough to stack, no collectables display, and you can't fit the sets in them without tearing the set in half :(I would say the piraka, cos the spine geta all twisted, but that's not really the cans folt.

Great Being Velika Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 I Really liked the Bohrok cans. I like how you could hang them up and then peel off the back sticker and see them hanging from the lid. I like BZP so much, I named my Minecraft account Dimensioneer.

AlchemistMayCry Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 Gotta go with the classic Toa/Toa Nuva canisters. Though I did like the Bohrok canisters because of how you could store the Bohrok from the little lid piece. It was very clever. Under this flag, I fly in freedom.
