Zaktan of the Shadows Posted November 21, 2009 New Gresh looks decent. New Skrall looks bleh. The Gold BIONICLE is cool. I also got Mata Nui today! Amazing set... he should have had a Star form. :P -ZotS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ShaddowCroc Posted November 21, 2009 Wow. These Stars are so damn sexy. I don't think there's a single one I dislike. That said, I want Tahu and Skrall first. I really hope they come around here soooooooooon. D: (Golden Tahu doesn't really impress me as much as I thought he would though. So that's a definite disappointment. As far as I'm concerned though, I'm just going to call Golden Tahu Lhikan and be happy.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phantoka Kopaka Nuva Posted November 21, 2009 (edited) Golden Tahu doesn't really impress me as much as I thought he would though. So that's a definite disappointment. As far as I'm concerned though, I'm just going to call Golden Tahu Lhikan and be happy. That's a great way to have Lhikan as a Stars set to represent 2004, the first year we have projectile weapons and canister sets with almost full articulation. All we need left are his 2 giant swords/shield/hoverboard. And golden feet. Edited November 21, 2009 by Phantoka Kopaka Nuva Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
80 Dollar Posted November 21, 2009 Gresh really does look awesome. :) Übber Tahu is awesome as well ...now I can tell that the silver nuva armor is there only because they ran out of pieces they could remake in gold... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zaktan of the Shadows Posted November 21, 2009 Seeing that Gresh review on BZP, he doesn't look bad at all! -ZotS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brickthing Posted November 22, 2009 Speaking of reviews, when are we going to get some Stars reviewed here eh? I'll definitely be getting Gresh as soon as I can for the character and the recoloured blades+helmet. Those recolours should look good on a Gresh MOC I've made, which I'll upload as soon as somebody resuscitates Brickshelf . Gresh is also the Star set that provides the most new Star-specific moulds, with would make it a good set for taste-testing the Stars line, along with Tahu. Also, this is sweet, and I hope the giant Hau is another location : I find Tahu's pose quite amusing, because it's both nostalgic in memory and in reawakening the bending-Toa-limb problem.

Second. A Hau location would be awesome. Also. The arm isn't actually bent, just angled funny. I think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nope, following the direction of the upper arm and it's armor compared to the lower arm, it's definitely bent. The Rahkshi's closest arm and Gresh and Takanuva's blade arms are also bent as well.

ShaddowCroc Posted November 22, 2009 If I get a Star anytime soon, I'll undoubtedly make a review of it post-haste. Anyway, that poster is win. It really satiates my nostalgia. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ShaddowCroc Posted November 22, 2009 So hey, do you guys know anything about the Stars being a store other than Toys 'R' Us? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Alchemyst Posted November 23, 2009 Saw all the Stars minus Tahu at a Toys R Us somewhere in Tennessee. I don't think I'll be getting any time soon with a price like that. =/ Plus System will be eating up my money. >.> @ShaddowCroc: TRU is the only one seen with the '10 sets right now, and probably will be until mid December. They usually release sets early. [-TA-] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brickthing Posted November 23, 2009 Which is kind of ironic, considering it was Target that showed us the high-quality pictures so far ahead of time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Holy Diver Posted November 24, 2009 I knew it had to happen sooner or later. I planned on quitting Bionicle this year after getting the Rahkshi Star, regardless of wheter it continued or not. But I still can't help but feel some pangs of sorrow for losing one of the key aspects of my childhood. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't quit - although the sets are finished, the storyline will continue for most likely as long as there's interest, which means the storyline will only get better without the restrictions of showing sets, and there will be less financial cost for us to follow it.

ShaddowCroc Posted November 24, 2009 Gee, that really kinda sucks. I had hoped these rumors of BIONICLE's end were just that, rumors. :( I hope the new line is at least tangetically related to the BIONICLE Universe. :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That doesn't sound to bad, at least it will still be around in some incarnation. I just still don't understand why TLC chose to do this now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trionx Posted November 24, 2009 (edited) Wow... Just, Wow... >_> <_< (Sells Toa Mata sets for $500 each on eBay.) *cough* Anyway, this is really shocking news. I'll be neat to see how the story plays out with no restrictions from the sets. But I really haven't come to terms with this yet. (If you hear a scream later today, that'll be me.) It'll also be interesting to see if the graphic novels will continue after this. I'd like to see them take the road that the IDW Transformers comics did. RIP BIONICLE: 2001-2010 I feel like a f**king fanboy for posting that but I guess I am. :P Edited November 24, 2009 by Darth Bionics Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
