DuckBricks

In other news, someone has gotten ahold of the retailer's catalogue and he says he will post descriptions throughout the week. (From the "Castle 2016?" Forum)

Would you PM people pics if they promised not to share? ;););)

Thanks so much for the descriptions. May I ask if you could (sorry, off topic) head over to the Bionicle 2016 thread in action figures and describe some sets? Pretty please? :)

I was aware of that, I was just wondering how he knew about it.

This I totally agree with. You can't generalize an entire fanbase based on one user's comment.

Have you found these pics online or do you have access to a retailer's catalogue? (If you don't mind my asking) I just want confirmation that if they are online I'll start looking for them myself, but it's useless to look if they aren't Oh, and do the golems have articulated heads?

Wait- I do the legs move then, or are they stable? Stable legs makes sense but would probably look pretty stupid (think about an ATAT with non-moving legs and wheels at the base of the legs) but moving legs would affect stability and it would probably buckle...

Yes, these are the correct names, except the cursed realm has been basically destroyed at this point.

Rhino looks so much better with those neat fists!

This may be one that only CCBS constraction fans can relate to, but breaking down Witch Doctor for parts. This.

I had a dream where I went to a toy store and discovered several vintage Lego sets new in the box for extremely good prices. Fast forward to post-purchase when I suddenly realize that they are cheap knockoffs. That was a frustrating dream....

Sitting on my couch designing Bionicle-themed 3-D models. Also discreetly setting loose my mutant lobsters to repel the stalker sitting on my windowsill typing about burnt toast.

Since the majority of realms revealed so far have been unique realms, and Chima was stated to mean nothing and just be a fun easter egg, it's relatively safe to assume that the other reals will be unique as well and not have anything to do with other themes...

I am one of those Ninjago fans that is the "exception" to most, as it seems. While I do have the capability of making a forum dedicated to Ninjago and have actually considered doing do, I really don't see a reason for doing that as Eurobricks already has threads with several consistently active members on them about Ninjago (Like Penkid and myself). Thus, I don't think that Ninjago really needs its own forum as Eurobricks already has a place for us fans to come together and discuss. Plus, as Aanchir mentions above, creating the site is hard enough - promoting the site and helping it succeed and thrive is even more challenging, and the only way for it to really be successful is a large fanbase with neither social media nor another preexisting forum to discuss - the ripe conditions for a budding forum, and the reasons of some of BZP's success.

finally

There was a DC SuperGirls theme announced that is rumored to have minidolls, so I guess it is feasible for a theme to share minidolls and Minifigs. Disney Princesses? I doubt it. But a new Disney line? I can see it sharing minidolls and Minifigs...

Wait... What is that and where is it from??

Mobile Castle..... Unfortunately that probably means castle-themed semi truck or something, and not a full-blown castle if Lego's previous mobile bases are anything to go by....

Eh, in my opinion Morro wasn't really a great villain. He was just kind of a spoiled brat with superpowers... All he did was whine about he was the best ninja and no one is better than him, etc. Allow me to rank my top pics: 1.) Pythor. Michael Dobson's voice acting made Pythor one of my favorite villains. Combined with a lack of silliness (a la Master Chen) and a lack of whining when things didn't work out (Chen, Morro) made Pythor one of the better villains. Combined with his intelligence and evil slyness, you have a great villain. The only downer was that his Serpentine army was a little less competent than, say, the Stone Armyor Nindroids. 2.) Garmadon. I think Garmadon was very much the "Darth Vader" character of his time, and while it was really cool to see the conflict inside of him, he even worked with the ninja at some point to save his son, which, while a great aspect of the character, wasn't very "villainy." 3.) Clouse. Clouse is so high on the list only because he had such a great potential to step up and put Master Chen's ridiculousness to an end. He was willing to cheat against the Ninja in the tournament and use his dark magic, and his pet serpent was extremely competent and frightening compared to Chen's cultists. The only shame is that, when Chen was mocking the death of his serpent, I wish Clouse had retaliated and struck out against Chen rather than remaining the meek servant. 4.) Overlord. For the big bad, he only really was threatening as the dragon in the final episode, and even then, he got defeated by attempting to eat Lloyd's dragon. All he really didnwas make Garmadon do stuff for him, which I guess was leading up to his possession of Garmadon, which was neat, but he had so little screen time as someone actually formidable. He was even weak in Rebooted and needed Nindroids to do his errands 5.) Chen. Nothing much to say except the entire Tournament was an excuse to watch people fight for fun. He made rash decisions against Clouse's better judgement and his plan to steal their powers could have been executed when the elemental masters first arrived at the island. Still, he was better than others for some reasons. 6.) Morro. Morro was certainly a formidable threat, especially after possessing Lloyd, but as I mentioned, all he really did, especially during the climax of Curseworld, was whine, whine, whine about how nobody is better than him. 7.) Cryptor. Didn't really have any defining character traits except for the fact that he was rather sexist, oftentimes mocking Nya for fighting "like a girl" and even making snide remarks about her perfume. 8.) Kozu. Not much to say except (to be honest) he looked really menacing and his army was extremely competent 9.) Samukai. He was more of Garmadon's servant and his army was goofy and incompetent.

The eBay listing says "custom," so he's basically admitting it's fake... Here's the full description: " This listing is exactly what it looks like. It is for a custom set containing rare GOLD Bionicle Mask of Jungle (as worn by Lewa), and a display pedestal/stand. It is likely not something you would see again! So get it while you can! This set is in great shape, but sold as is. It will be shipped in a box, protected as well as possible. Handling fees will include Insurance. I entered the Mask contest, didn't win. A few weeks later my friend gave me this saying I'd appreciate it more. But times are tough, and I need the money. Bid or not, just please don't ask questions. If I had more info, I'd post it for all to know."

Time to reverse-engineer this based on the skeleton pics... You wouldn't happen to have an LDD file laying around, would you? ;)

Fingers crossed for an Elemental master. Any of them! Please Lego!!

I was the original leaker of that GWP list and can confirm that an exclusive Ninjago Minifig was slated for September. However, things may have changed... Edit: in my original picture underneath its listing is "TBD" so perhaps it was considered but didn't actually happen... Edit 2: September's Tractor GWP was originally intended for August so I hope the Ninjago fig has just been pushed to November...

Because all CMFs have the same DCPI, I tried that and he just came with the older series. When I specified a black box he said that's all they have... :(
