Trionx

Hey, I found another set: (Couldn't resist, sorry. ) You know, Greg was saying the other day that the HF story was going to be "episodic". He also said that LEGO isn't going to have any comics for this new line, and that they're trying to separate it from the BIONICLE marketing plan. (Makes sense, otherwise we'd just have BIONICLE under a different name.)

The thing with EF was that it ended suddenly- They probably couldn't stop the early 2008 line so that's why we got tons of sets that year. (And yes, there are BIONICLE caps. I have I got with Brickmaster in 2005 that I still wear. )

Let me rephrase that: Compared to Revenge of the Fallen, AHM is good. (Seriously though, I thought it was a good series. Maybe it's just me. )

Really? I think they're the best thing to happen to BIONICLE in years. (And I liked AHM! )

Well, the people that know how to get there are the guys that were there last year or the people who are supposed to know where it is. I would be surprised if Artakha DIDN'T know where it is since he helped build the robot. (I think. ) Good to see Greg didn't forget about the Anti-Teridax and Takanuva(s?). He better wrap that one up soon, I waited an entire year for something to happen to them. And I just want him to tie up these loose ends before the main story is switched to the website. It's going to be 2 years since they started fighting in MN's head...

Seeing as I have Keetongu and half a dozen Avtoran I'm going to have to try a star of him. To be honest I was going to make the Stars full sized when I got them, but with all these Star MOCs floating around I'm going to probably make a few of those.

According to Wikipedia it does.

2008. The sets were good, we got the Nuva back, and the story revealed the MN robot. We should make this into a new topic though, and not spam this one up.

Now everyone has their hopes up, we are so going to be disappointed. Even if they have Minifigs, I'm going to have to make a MOC of a technic dropship. That's too cool to pass up.

Good point, now I'm really curious to see what this set is. That would be interesting, but I'm not sure if LEGO would want to try and make another mech line so soon after Exo-Force. (Though it would be welcome to me. )

It's possible, we'll have to wait and see. Has anyone made a good MOC of a BIONICLE ship? I wouldn't even know where to begin...

It's possible, but I don't think they were that far along in set design before they ended it. We don't even know if that was supposed to be a set. (Would be interesting if it was though.)

THAT would be cool. I'm still thinking that they'll be titans but that sounds like it your guess might be better. If they do that I wonder what Hasbro would think...

The way it's spelled (With a space between Drop and Ship) makes me think that it's the name of a character. I've also heard from Greg that the larger BIONICLE sets really haven't sold that well, and a dropship for even Matoran-sized figures would have to be really big. I would still love to see a set like that.

I'm looking forward to this shuttle, it'll be nice to see a remake of it. I'd like to see another set like the Imperial Inspection though, this set doesn't seem to come with enough interesting minifigs IMHO.

It's not the simplicity that I don't like, it's that we've had this design for four years as the main body. I'd just take anything that would give more variety to my MOCs. (I have 8 Inika sets, not counting all the sets that reused them so you could say I've had my fill of them. )

To be honest, I'll be happy if they're anything except Inika armor.

I think the sets are compatible with BIONICLE- Bink said so on BZP, and even then, it makes no sense for LEGO to make a new system that isn't compatible with their other brands.

The idea was that Greg could fit the HF sets into canon but just the sets. I'm sure he won't do that but I was saying it would be interesting.

Has anyone ever bought a LEGO set based on the age range on the box? Didn't some Creator sets have the ages 1-99 on their boxes? Why make this an issue?

They all fell in acid and turned into two-face?

I was just thinking- it would be interesting if Greg could work some of the "Hero Factory" sets into canon. What I mean is just the sets, not that I want a Toa William running around trying to defeat Makuta Xplode. I know it isn't very likely, but it's just a thought.

You're saying then Front, that these names are placeholders or the name of the theme is a placeholder? God I'm starting to sound obnoxious. Asking all these questions.

I don't think he'll be able to take pictures for this playtest. If it's LEGO, you know how secretive they are about upcoming releases.
