Need to thin out duplicates before I get more now! My most recent acquisition was a sealed Muaka and Kane-Ra which I’ll open for YouTube and build on stream alongside the Bionicle GWP sometime soon. Nice! Older sealed sets are super neat to me - I don't have any older than 2003 (a Turahk I ended up getting for cheap). Would be a ton of fun to watch that opening! Which 2001-2002 sets are you missing now? 22 minutes ago, The Archivist said: I started in late Quarantine, after having played with Bionicles as a kid. I love the technical aspects of collecting. Anyway, it's financially ruined me. At least I got a few slick prototypes. Ah, quarantine was definitely a time to start. Prices are SO rough nowadays. Very curious about the prototypes, what ones have you gotten?

I can still tell you exactly where I was when I received and built Muaka and Kane-Ra at Christmas 2001, so it’s going to be a really special event! I’ll post somewhere here when that is happening. I’m missing the Manas, Nui-Jaga, Power Pack, and Master Builder set. But with the prices for the Master Builder set here, I’ll probably focus on the other three.

Taria Pakari Posted May 16, 2023 Share Posted May 16, 2023 Got a big box of parts from a local market a couple weeks back. I think there's a complete Axalara and Mata Nui in there. No instructions, so not really sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I feel that, I have spent way too much money, and now I’m trying to clean up after myself while stuff still catches my eye from time to time 😂 Edited June 1, 2023 by Tohunga Premium Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tourmalinex Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 The lot was going to be on ebay. However I would like to get it.I think the silver item on the lower right is a white metal krana. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could get hard plastic krana and gold,gray,yellow, light brown colored masks of shadows off sites that sell bootleg from CN. This command krana is not metal, it’s made of krana rubber and has metal paint/Shrink-wrap on it. Look up 9299 Star Soldier Wars and you will find a bootleg mata nui giant. These masks sometimes have the Lego lego and part numbers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolute score on the Kanohi. Not sure what you paid, but hey - that's some value there. And do I spot a Kane-ra torso in there?... My updates are relatively slow - been trying to cut down on spending. But... I did just finish my Krana-Kal collection (last couple of ones), got a few boxes (including the yellow Jetrax, sort of pumped about that), and am now down to 4 sets remaining. Just bought #5 - Toa Undersea Attack. A weirdly pricey one. Interestingly enough, found a sealed one for cheaper than people are trying to sell it opened and without the box... 2007 playsets aren't good enough for that kind of money. Oh, and I got a Chrome Rua finally! I bought a partial Powerpack from a BZPer back in the early 2000s. Was basically just the box and CD. Had a Hafu, finally last year found the instruction booklet (had to import from Germany...), and finally picked up the mask. I'm gonna pretend there's no plastic insert and try not to let that bother me. Slowly wanting to finish up my Kanohi Nuva as well and call it quits with mask collecting. Then I can pretend like I'll finish my Kraata collection ever!
