where?

To my knowledge, VK is a Russian equivalent of Facebook. It's either someone impersonating of being a Lego employee and doing pretty good job so far. But I'd say that is official, no one would really make that much stuff just for trolling. It seems He/she strated uploading this stuff before the new year. I'm more bummered by the fact that something like this hasn't been on the Facebook page. Nor did any Russian community member gave any shouout to this happening. Oh well. "Hello everyone! Cool news - now it is the official group of LEGO Bionicle! The legend is back! Maybe someone of you remember the legendary series of LEGO Bionicle? Incredibly popular and interesting history, adventure heroes who remembered around the world. We were lucky! LEGO restarts the series, and now we are waiting for something unforgettable! New characters, cool story, battle and research, in which we will participate. Six Toa: Fire, Water, Stone, Earth, Ice and Jungle - ready for feats and victories, determined to save the mythical island Okoto from the forces of evil, and to find the mask of the Elements! Connect to super-adventures in our group " 26 Dec at 12:32 pm

..what is happening in here. http://vk.com/newlegobionicle

I'm pretty sure these are light gray. White would clash too much and and normal grey wouldn't be bone-y enough.
-
It's really irritating to search for certain colors when they are not called the same across all Lego websites. Like... I really thought the color on NEX and XT4 were the light stone grey. I find this a large problem when using LDD. Is there a chart somewhere that describes these? sry for offtopic.
-
Well... people tend to confuse these names. Neat find tho!
-
Umm... I think you are mistaken here. As Grinder has no horns. It's Basher. 2 of these in purple. Which already appeared in said color on DC ultrabuild Joker. (I have no need for these, arleady bought two Jokers). Also. Comparing purple that appeared on Onua's prelimnary to Basher's prelimnary leads me to believe that those bones are indeed transparent pink and this size.

I know there's masses of text behind but I don't like to discuss something that has already been discussed and answered. The thing on his shield is used in the Battle for Ninjago city and Cinderella's carriages as wheels. I think it's a great looking piece. And seeing that it's already been in two completely different themes and seems to do just fine in the third (Bionicle) why would they change it? I see no point. I stated earlier I that I'm almost 100% sure how the hammer will be built. Well it looks like it was rather 20% :P Now I can't make heads or tails of the black centre of it. It's impossible to see but I'd guess there is a gear in the middle to turn the shooter. Also here is a screenshot of the Forge: http://i.imgur.com/6cRbJnv.jpg for whatever needs.

Teehee, the mask actually is a placeholder. It's not even black, of course it's the same mask. It's one of these things they print out to test the design. Final version will be made from better material and will be black. It would be nift if all of the skullguys didn't have red eyes. But I guess the teaser speaks for itself that the phosp green one on grinder is just a placeholder for red.
-
Well Im expecting for them to put a new mask on slicer. Some armor placement may change a little. (In prelimnary pics Gali's thigs were upside down). The new addon piece (also mistaken as Lewa's mask) will see a final version. The chest pieces get better printing. Some minor color changes. Really the plastic looks cheap, but when it hasn't in prelimnary pics? These things are not even the CGI we will see in the boxes, just a quick photo of a model put together with old pieces and a 3d printer.. The hands towards masks certainly look interesting. It could actually be that the golden masks are included in the sets too. Which is downright cheap so I don't see it happening. It's for sure something they have stolen though.
-
Some of the bone pieces are indeed kinda unuseful for experienced MOCing. But the the new longer ones... not sure about it but look at the white ones on Scorpio's tail... is that a pinhole?
-
I'd believe they are all around the net, cough... TTV... gouch.
-
Okay, I admit I was wrong with the hammer, mainly thinking it would rise it's prize more. But darn I'm glad I was wrong. As I kinda feared these things don't really have much armor, but thanks to the new bones they don't expose that much ballsockets. I don't know what they thought when making scorpio's tail. It looks horrible. Really most of these look really unfinished and kinda dissapointing, I'm liking the new pieces but the sets really aren't that great. Ekimu is awesome. What are your guesses for the placeholder masks? Some kind of artifacts? Golden version of their skulls(?) It seems they possibly abandoned the conflict idea. At least the sets are not including skullspiders. I definetly hope what I'm seeing on slicer is not a large torso (used on Onua) and only the upper arms on gearbox. I know these are only prelimnary, but so far not so good.
-
The idea of using the shooters on the hammer could work, but Ekimu already has a gearbox to make up to that. Besides, a hammer with 10 pieces and 12 studs + 7 extra compared to a hammer with 8 pieces. It's not extremely easy to play with and you'd have to hold from the handle of the hammer, not the shooter on the opposite side because while doing you'd be shooting on with sides. I sure hope Ekimu will have a hammer but descriptions from toyfair say otherwise. If Ekimu/maskmaker has a normal hammer, I'm almost 100% certain it uses this build If he has a shooter it will be built something like this to prevent it being too wide. The shooters aren't really tight on the pole and are secured in place only with half yellow axleholepins. If the shooter turns out to be the case, I don't at least see them doing a recolor of the shooter itself, and that is one more thing why I'm leaning towards the first option because the "hammer part" of the hammer was completely translucent in the animation. PoF also had a half yellow axleholepin in the shooter which there was no sign of with Ekimu's or Makuta's hammer. If it is supposed to be a shooter, it would would look like one.
-
I wonder how they ended up on imgur. from tumblr http://gk733-bonkles.tumblr.com/post/105435152661/some-golden-recolors-for-the-mask-makers Those were some rather messy edits, but it was enough for me at the moment.
-
Well, it's still hundread euros less than what first wave cost. And 4 titan class sets and one versus set with a titan would be niche. But I'd say we shouldn't take the conversion in account, rather compare official prizes by Lego. http://shop.lego.com...Listing=listing Aaand Gali is 13 pounds and 15 dollars. Yep, figured. All four will be 15$ sets if they didn't do mistake in Toy Fair. EDIT: I got ninja'd, TWICE
-
So the chima body armor is not dead? interesting. I really don't believe that the chest he mentioned would be the oneseen on every toa and LOSS. I just can't see it used as transparent, while it would certainly look cool.
-
I guess he meant that he will put golden mask of fire (Kanohi Hau 2015) on the stars Tahu.
-
Pieces already clash on some of the toas' arms, it's just realistic they can't twist them to 360. try the four armed gearbox yourself and secure the pin of the lower arms with 0,5 techinc axleholething... whatever it's called. It works fairly well.
-
We have yet to see the toa meet eachother (possibly getting back some memories?) The game is not excatly story focused but my guess is that they all meet on the gates of the ancient city. As the game suggests there are six paths, one from each region. It sure bugs me that Makuta travelled to the stone region just to put the mask on but made it at the forge of the ancient city.
-
You have no love for basher? Possible new purple parts? The other two guys doesn't really seem that interesting. But I got to admit I'm waiting mostly for Ekimu and Grinder too.
-
Didn't Risgrysngrot (sorry if I misspelleld, but it really is not easy to write he's name) that basher had a hammer or either a battleaxe? I choose battleaxe because it would give him difference to Onua. And about the scorpion, yes it might look squashed but it's mostly due to the perspective. Edit: I completely forgot the horns, oops. Anyways, not going to redo these before Toy Fair.
-
That's the exact thing why I gave it two skullmasks, hoping that this thing is an homage to Nui-Jaga. It would also give us some change to see wildlife on Okoto... because we haven't seen a single fish or bird yet.
-
Thanks guys, really appreciate! I'm trying to think the sets like a designer would. And I'm becoming worried that these may not include much of new parts or even recolors. Possibly couple of new recolored transbones, but basicly I feel the new we are getting are just masks and 1 or 2 new weapons. Instead of new molds the budget is rather used to include more parts. Of course I'm open for surprises. Can't really wait for Toy Fair.
