Obsessionist Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Way back when it was first released, my parents got me the Official Guide to Bionicle. As you can see, it had a Levahk Va picure where a Pahrak Va picure should be. Is this a rare thing, or are there others? Is the book worth anything? It's in decent condition, but not perfect. No big blemishes, just a crease or small tear here and there. Would it be even worth anything in mint condition? I'm really curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Xemnas~ Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 I think all of those books have it. Even mine does. Quote BZPRPG Profiles Ghosts of Bara Magna Profile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vulpelibrorum Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 Although I don't own this book in praticular, those "Official Bionicle Guides" all seem to be a bit screwy as far as connecting the pictures to the correct information. There are a number of mistakes like this in the Bionicle Encyclopedia, none of them of vital importance but still irritating.Maybe the error was fixed in a later release or something?

ZippyWharrgarbl Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 Actually, there are many books with such mistakes. I have several books that have the pictures messed up. It's probably not worth much more than its usual price; in fact, one that is totally correct would probably be worth more.

Just A Dot Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 Well, mine is completely perfect, and many years ago, I briefly flipped through a friends copy, and didn't notice any flaws. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obsessionist Posted January 1, 2012 Author Share Posted January 1, 2012 All I know is that one of my two Official Guides to Bionicle has the misprint mentioned, one is perfect. I also have the updated Bionicle Encyclopedia, and my copy is definitely mixed up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZippyWharrgarbl Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 Actually, I'm not really sure if we have a hard-core enough fanbase for anyone to pay a higher price for it. We're mostly docile creatures compared to some of the more angry fanbases. Quote Memoirs of the Dead entry: The Unknown Turaga, a tale from the late Chronicler Kodan's journal.

XP Still, the non-updated version may have some appeal, with the story at the end of it. Quote Memoirs of the Dead entry: The Unknown Turaga, a tale from the late Chronicler Kodan's journal.
