Slumber Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 Hey guys. Ive been collecting the Bionicle comics for years from different countries regions and variants. Today i have finally completed the only documented complete US set of comics! If you have any questions please let me know. Below are all the US Bionicle comics pictured.

ToaDume Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 Well done! This is very impressive. Sorry to break it to you though. You're still missing at least one. There is the glatorian 4 issue with the red 2009 in the upper left hand corner. That issue has a few pages that the normal glatorian 4 doesnt have.

I had a few of those already in my collection. They are also not US released promos! It belongs to a completely different set of comics in another English speaking region 1 Quote Looking for rare Bionicle Promo Materials!

I will reveal all about that once I finish that set too! The yellow special editions came in various DC and Sports Illustrated for Kids comics/magazines during the time of releases. I cant remember the exact issue numbers. 1 Quote Looking for rare Bionicle Promo Materials!

Now I kind of regret trading the yellow ones I had =( 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humble_Matoran Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 Very impressive work! So cool to see them all displayed in the same place. How long did it take you?! Also, do you have a master list of sorts that you work off of? I've been working on my own comic collection lately, and while I don't have as many as you yet I'm steadily growing 13 hours ago, Slumber said: I will reveal all about that once I finish that set too! *leans on edge of seat* 1 Quote currently searching for ANY Gray Plastic Krana Kal (GPKK) If you were a member of Proto-squad, or know someone who was, please feel free to get in contact with me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But only got super serious with it maybe as the pandemic initially hit. Most of that was research and figuring out exactly where each promo came from. I dont currently have a list. But I will have to do one eventually. I hope to scan them all professionally and archive them on a website for all to see 5 hours ago, Bambi said: Impressive collection! Great job on this.
