VBBN Posted February 17, 2008 Author Posted February 17, 2008 (edited) Dang, antroz has radiaks mask. Lol, tahu has a korohk shiled with that shuriken! Takanuva is strange... Edit: Woah, I see an orange inika jaller chest armour on this guy!! Edited February 17, 2008 by ~VBBN~ Quote
Makuta'sdarkslave Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 Well call me the Lego critc, cause that's what I'm doing! Gorast: The mask looks kinda like a rubber Visorak body, with a needle coming out. I like the claws, but why are his wings square? Bitil: Av-Matoran body, strange floaty "wings", he only has red spikes on his right arm. He looks strangely a lot like Takadox... hmm.... Krika: She looks so... sweet. Krika just looks amazing, with spikes all over the place. She has an extra limb for her launcher. Phantoka Makuta body w/ new armor inside. Onua: Unfortunately, the photographer stood in bad positions and couldn't actually get his body in the shot, al I can say is he has a gun, and mask kind of like the Krahkaan. Gali: Let's hope that extra thing on her left eye can flip down. Her mask seemskind of rubbery, like Tahu's, and she is going to be a mater Marksman with a gun like that, and a perfect position. Tahu: Rubbery Knight's Kingdom head.... again, gun a shuriken, no surprise there. On this note, I must say, that according to records and some files I dug up online, Rockoh and Jetrax are both evil clones of Pohatu and Lewa, seeing as they have the same masks, I thought it might be clear. The records weren't actually official, but let's just say they are until we get more information, eh? Takanuva: He kidn of looks like his preliminary picture, but seems different, skinner, rubbery mask, Takadox shouder pads? I don't even WANT TO KNOW! I never noticed the slight amounts of gray they put on there. (I don't know what bley means, I just starting heaing it while on this site.). The staff could be a little longer, but we'll never know. TOYFAIR MIX-UPS: Vamprah's head is mostly white Gavla is all blue with just a tint of black Antroz is wearing Radiak's mask Chirox's arms on not set up right Kirop's arms are black and his legs are gray (If I'm not mistaken, they mixed up Radai's leg blades) That's all I found, until next time, ciao!

80 Dollar Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 (edited) I read on BZP that there was some info about Ts on Toy Fair saying that Rockoh T3 is being driven by special edition Pohatu, Jetrax T6 by shapeshifted Antroz,who has hijacked it (probably stole it from Kopaka) and Axalara T9 by special edition Lewa.

Zaktan of the Shadows Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 Whats with the Phantoka? Antroz has Radiak's mask... And some have added parts and prelimanary masks!Those Mistika look awesome!!! :o I love there designs, better than what I originally though. Mini-review time! Tahu Nuva: Silver limbs! Anyways, he looks cool. I like the mask. The design is pretty sweet too. B) Nice weapon. Gali Nuva: Uh... It's okay, but why another Piraka body? :( Anyways, the mask is ugly... the silver limbs are good though! And the Mata blue arm connectors could mean that the mata colours are returning and they are making them as we speak. Onua Nuva: Nice! This is a pretty sweet set. I like the mask - it looks cool! But no claws... :( The attachements and new body armor is also welcome to the peice family. :D Gorast: Um, not as bad as I thought - he actually looks pretty cool - but whats with the torso??? Krika: Bad. Just bad. The colours, the structure - bleh... :X Bitil: Now he's awesome! I love the design, and the Jala yellow rocks! B) I like the mask and weapons too... Takanuva: What happend to him? Why is he so big?! Anyways, custom legs, and an awesome design make up for it. :) Vultraz: Hmm... looks intresting... not the best... Rockoh T3, Jetrax T6, Axalara T9: Complex, to say the least. I like Axalara's vehicle. :) Where's Mazeka? There we go. My opinions. 80 Dollar - I have no words to express my anger... Why the hell would they release them again?! And will Kopaka die? I hope not... Makuta'sdarkslave - Uh, the reason the masks are rubbery and foamy is because they are still preliminary. They'll become plastic. ;-) -ZotS Quote
Zee toa of sonics Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 where on BZP 80 dollar? -zee *skull* Quote
VBBN Posted February 17, 2008 Author Posted February 17, 2008 Oh, Crap! Gali has a million eyes! Look at her left eye! Ugh.. :-X Quote
Zaktan of the Shadows Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 Oh, Crap! Gali has a million eyes! Look at her left eye! Ugh.. :-X So, people with visors like that have a million eyes? Oh! I bet it's an eyepatch! The Makuta who knocked out Krekka's eye probably knocked hers out! I get it... :-| -ZotS Quote

I thought we might actually get some rubbery masks. They wouldn't be half bad. |-/ >:-( Quote
Ikki o' Moopyville Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 We got that with the Inika, and that wasn't half bad, that was hideous. ;-) -Ikk Quote
Icesaber Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 Tahu looks better to me now. His mask looks a little better, so does his shuriken. The placements of his jets are weird, and I wish they had used some armor to cover his chest. I don't mind backward Piraka armor as long as there is good armor covering it. Gali looks a lot worse. I think she takes the new spot for worse canister. Why does she have jets on her feet?! What happened to her mask? And more backwards Piraka torso :-X . Onua looks slapped together. Weird red jets, a shield thrown on. His mask has potential, though. Looks sort of like the Ultimate Dume's helm. Krika looks cool to me, even if she uses Kardatoran limbs and the Phantoka Makuta torso. Her launcher looks slapped on, though. Probably my fave. Gorast also looks better. His pose reminds me of a hunched, four-armed monster. Looks sort of nice. Bitil looks nice. However, I'm disappointed that none of the Mistika Makuta have Metru-head-compatible masks :(. Takanuva looks great! His body, armor, weapon, everything looks very nice. His mask is sort of remniscient of the Avohkii, too. A big *y* . The vehicles look nice. I'm a Bionicle completist, so I'll get them all, but probably not all at full price. I really like the blue one (Jetrax T6, right?) and the red one (Axalara T9, correct?). Also, I think Mazeka will be a Matoran with vehicle like Vultrax. Quote
Zarkan Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 We got that with the Inika, and that wasn't half bad, that was hideous. -Ikk Agreed, which is why I'm glad they are at least back to plastic masks. :-/ But MAN, some of these new masks are just AWFUL! Gali has the worst blue mask since Hahli Inika, Tahu's doesn't look anything like a Hau, and Onua's... er, I still can't tell what it looks like. :-| Even worse, Tahu is the only toa with a weapon BESIDES a crappy launcher. Gali and Onua both are stuck with the same unfortunate situation as Kopaka. :-X Still, it's at least good to see that they are recoloring a lot of old pieces into new, awesome colors. Orange Inika chest armor? Lime Inika shoulder armor? Silver legs? Mmmm, don't you just love it.... :-) If there's one kit here I truly can say I like, it would have to be Takanuva. Despite not having any gold, he is seriously kick butt! And his "new" mask is just awesome! *wub* 80 Dollar - I have no words to express my anger... Why the hell would they release them again?! And will Kopaka die? I hope not... I don't think so. Greg said that no major characters would die in 2008, since the shocking conclusion to the year would not include character deaths, but something else.... :-/ Still, this is crud that they are re-releasing canisters sets in the SAME year. Looks like they are running out of ideas.... :-| Quote
Makuta'sdarkslave Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 We got that with the Inika, and that wasn't half bad, that was hideous. ;-) -Ikk Says you! I loved the Inika, they brought something new nto the bionicle world! unfrotunely, we do have soem pretty crappy sets, none the less, i will proably get them all, just because Im a huge fan. my friend will most likely get them casue he's such a great MoC-ist. he has over 50 MoCs to date. cool.

Zaktan of the Shadows Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 "Oh shit! Lewa, Pohatu, and Antroz have new forms! I need to get them!!" Poor Lewa Phantoka and Pohatu Phantoka (and Antroz). Being better though ignored due to them having vehicles now... :'-( -ZotS Quote
VBBN Posted February 17, 2008 Author Posted February 17, 2008 (edited) Hah, I TOLD you those would be lewa and pohuatu. :-| Boy, Lego is changing these guys for the fourth time. :-/ And antroz has been demoted. :-D Edit: DANG!!!!! BZP just announced to toa nuva weapons are Nynrah Ghost Blasters! Lego is losing their minds! Edited February 17, 2008 by ~VBBN~ Quote

dviddy Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 By the by, Gorast is the chickuta. GregF confirmed and approved! Quote
Clonie Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 Oh crap. *has lost bet* :-P Also... 2)Lewa and Pohatu on the T Vehicles are adapted to the swamp since they look a bit different than their Phantoka forms right?2) Actually they are adapted to using the vehicles, not the swamp. Gorast, ruler of the Tren Krom peninsula, conqueror of the Visorak, and mistress of the acid falls. 7. Takanuva seems to be the only Summer Titan without a vehicle, will Mazeka also have a vehicle?7) Yes. 6. Do you have any idea why the Mistika are $12.99USD?6) I will be going into more detail on this in my blog but in a nutshell there are a few reasons -- first, the spike in oil prices means a spike in the cost of plastic, energy to make sets, and energy to transport sets; second, BIONICLE sets generally have more new pieces than other LEGO sets, which means more new molds, which means the need to buy steel to make the molds, and the price of steel has shot up; and the decision was made in Denmark that of all our lines, BIONICLE was best positioned to be able to survive a price increase because of its strength and longevity. Wtf on that last. Quote
Jetrax99 Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 (edited) I just read on BZP that lego hasn't released the names of the vehicle riders yet. I really hope it's not antroz, lewa, and pohatu :-( Where's my attachment? Edited February 18, 2008 by Jetrax99 Quote
JINZONINGEN73 Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 http://toyfair08.asmzine.com/gallery/lego/...s/IMG_9292.html I'll be Bricklinkin' those lime green parts. Unfortunately... that might be it but for one or two of the bad guys sets. To be fair though, if this were 2002, I'd be totally freaked at how cool all these sets are. BUT... it is in fact 2008. Which is too late. Glow in the dark, yes?

Nako Nuva Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 Oh good.Tahu: Hey, Onua, check out these new Ghost Blasters. They may condemn wandering souls to eternal suffering in the fiery bowels of hell when used, but hey we all have to make sacrifices! Onua: There's rockets in mah legs foo! :-| I love that exchange, I really do. There's rockets in mah legs . . . That made me happy. Seriously, is anyone else irked that Kopaka doesn't get a new form? What the snot is all that about? I don't want another Antroz, especially not a bastardized one like that. Winter Antroz is just fine, but new Antroz is the suck. Kopaka would have looked a million times more awesome on a vehicle. And am I the only one who thinks that Gali looks like a Piraka with that mask? I swear they just took the Vezon head part and filled in an eye and the teeth. Hideous, absolutely hideous. I can't help but think that Lego really hates the Toa Nuva, and are determined to make them horrible so we never ask for them again. Well it isn't gonna work, you hear me! I waited too long for this, you horrible jerks! UGH, and the price is going up? That's just WRONG. I remember when a set cost me 7 bucks, man. Take a good long look at the 30 dollar price for Takanuva, because someday, that's how much Matoran sets are going to cost you. Quote
