Favorite Constraction boxart?

Recommended Posts

This should be something everyone on this forum can contribute to, be it Slizers, Roboriders, Bionicle, Hero Factory, or anything else related to the best customizable and buildable action figures out there, what is/are your favorite Constraction boxart/s?

I would say a decent number of the Mata canister art, maybe it's the nostalgia. The one's that strike me are Tahu's, Gali's, and Lewa's. I especially love the backround environment on Gali's.

Most of the G1 boxarts were just splashes of energy and a shallow outline of the background itself, or even something more pathetic like the Mahri.

But just to name a few, While I liked the 01 and 02 they were kinda... stale, In 2004 we got pretty nice boxarts for every set, usually Villains had to with some obscure thing resembling the years main theme.

2005 was... well even that was aesthetically bad, 2006 had a nice theme going on but not really that interesting, 2007 seven followed the same pattern, expect everything was blue and Mahri had the laziest boxarts of the whole G1. Phantoka started well, kinda stale again but I really liked the Mistika boxart, same can be said for winter glatorian and the titans as well, summer ones were just splashes of energy with the giant maze map and weak outlines of the surroundings, I hate how Stars Takanuva had snow in the boxart, rest worked just fine.

Hero Factory had some really nice boxart actually most of the time after the first wave. But I gotta say, while 2015 has it awesome

Umarak's prelimnary box art has won me already, there's just so much detail, different characters and structures seem really interesting.

Gotta say Invasion from Below. The artwork at the top of the bag way great.

I also really like the 2015 Bionicle box art just due to the variety of colors and how bright they are.

It may just be a failure to recall anything better, but I really adore the Skull Villain boxart from this year. While the overall setting (the ancient city) is the same, the specific locales are different and varied enough to really make the Toa's trek to the Mask Forge feel like a gauntlet. I had already wanted playsets before the Skull Villains were released just for the minifigures, but the amazing architecture on the summer boxes made me want them even more for the fantastic and unique architecture.

Me too.

I'm also like all the Breakout boxart.(Except Stormer Xl boxart)

Tahu mata's iconic lava surfing has to be up there (impossible limb bending not withstanding), and I always liked the glatorian ones too. not sure why, probably the nice elemental backgrounds.

The box art that really caught my eye for as far back as I can remember to now...would be Kopaka, Master of Ice. I love it...Kopaka looks amazing, the setting is in a mountain in the middle of a snow storm with some ruins behind Kopaka, who is about to skewer a skull spider. It's pretty epic and my favourite one to date.
