Kahgarak Posted May 26, 2006 Posted May 26, 2006 I certainly hope that the backs will not be ''naked'' like the Piraka (unless you count the spine) and that there will be a second piece of armor that covers the back,like the Hordika had.Maybe like that forest picture from the new game with Toa Jaller where you can see his back. What do you think that the Inika's backs will look and be like? Quote
Zane Posted May 26, 2006 Posted May 26, 2006 ... This is a weird topic. Anyways, since the body is a Piraka body with armour over the front, it'll be the same as the Piraka.... Quote
Kahgarak Posted May 26, 2006 Author Posted May 26, 2006 Who knows... And i could have made a more weird topic about the Inika's backHAIR. :-D j/k Quote
Shakar Posted June 7, 2006 Posted June 7, 2006 It definiatly isn't a Praka body.It 's different,looks longer.I think it will be similar to the one from the videogame.Maybe a tad different,game designs tend to vary a bit. Shakar Quote
JINZONINGEN73 Posted June 10, 2006 Posted June 10, 2006 From what I can see, the backs will probably go the way of "unpainted back" giant monster vinyl figures from Bandai in the 80's. (Translation: Most toy companies only care if a figure looks good from the front). ;-) Quote
bigfatslob Posted June 11, 2006 Posted June 11, 2006 JIZZZZZZZMOOOOOO I see you're alive ! Anyway, it seems from '03 Matoran, Piraka, and now Igniter Toas, TLC is dropping the ball and leaves incomplete models.....so sad :'-) bfs *n* Quote
JINZONINGEN73 Posted June 11, 2006 Posted June 11, 2006 STEEEEEEEEVE Actually, doesn't the name of the game with just about ANY Lego set (ESPECIALLY Technic) just scream "incomplete model" anyway? That's why I steered clear of Lego sets back in the early 80's... those ads on the back of comic books displaying a bare-bones Technic tractor. It was like, "Hmm... 5 Star Wars figures oooooor 1 stick-like tractor. Hmmmm." I guess the thinking is, one has to buy more sets to fill them out, etc etc... But unlike the 80's, Technic sets now gush with good stuff, completeness aside. Quote
Shakar Posted June 12, 2006 Posted June 12, 2006 We just got the answer: http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Archinto...cs/dsc02728.jpg A bit diaspponting.... Shakar Quote
Kahgarak Posted June 12, 2006 Author Posted June 12, 2006 Ah,thanks! The Inika heads (the back of them) are kind of dissapointing,though. I kind of like the Inika backs.I'm sure that there'll be a way to cover them,though.Ya can always MOC... Quote
Shakar Posted June 12, 2006 Posted June 12, 2006 You're right on that.Their backs have lots of holes,and therefore will be very MOCable. Shakar Quote
bigfatslob Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 I believe I'v solved the empty back problem w/ the Igniters ! Use Knights Kingdom capes on the Toa. Light gray, dark gray, and blue capes are available AND if your handy w/ a needle and thread (or scissors *wacko* hey, Eric !) the technic Darth Vader cape in black can be used. Capes are rather dashing, Don't you think ????? 8- Quote
prateek Posted June 16, 2006 Posted June 16, 2006 Capes make bionicle wierd-looking. If you got some chain lying around, make them gangsters or something. I did that with my Thok and my Bomonga *y* Quote
Kahgarak Posted July 5, 2006 Author Posted July 5, 2006 By the way,can someone tell me if the neck consists of a normal ball joint and a #4 axle,or the new Titan ball joint and the Titan leg piston axle,but in a #4 size? Quote
Deinonychus Posted July 5, 2006 Posted July 5, 2006 If my Hahli arrives before anyone else puts some pics and descriptions up for you guys I'll be sure to include an in-depth look at her back Quote
Lord Thrawn Posted July 6, 2006 Posted July 6, 2006 In case nobody saw in brickshelf of BZP, I'm the first to get a full set. I can answer your questions. The ball for the neck is a Titan ball, but the rod is just a plain 4 rod. The back is shown here. Rest of My Gallery. Hope I helped. Quote
Kahgarak Posted July 6, 2006 Author Posted July 6, 2006 YES!!!!I guess that means necks that won't fall out of the balls!!!!YAY! Thank you,Thrawn! *sweet* Deinonychus:I can't wait till you give us all details about the Inika's backs! *sweet* Quote
Kahgarak Posted July 11, 2006 Author Posted July 11, 2006 I like that the back goes back a little,so it actually looks (and probably feels) like extra armor. Preety cool! *sweet* *y* Quote
KingofLego456 Posted July 14, 2006 Posted July 14, 2006 The Inika backs look like this: Linked Picture I thought they would look like thin piraka backs... Quote
Kahgarak Posted July 14, 2006 Author Posted July 14, 2006 I thought that too.I am glad that the main body piece goes back a bit,so it feels like extra armor.I like that feel. Quote
Dino_Bot Posted July 14, 2006 Posted July 14, 2006 I think its pretty cool that the back is covered now. These might be the best Toa ever. I just can't wait to own and huggle one! Quote
