    I doubt they would miss the opportunity to give us more Star Wars sets, specifically given they made new pieces specifically for the line, though unable to find the source in the Star Wars rumors forum... Probably going to turn Vader into Gorm... xD

    Depending on if you can attach the hilt at either end of the lightsaber, i could see it being used as a trans-staff piece

    Most people dream of a Lego room like this... well, maybe just me :P But still this is some amazing craftmanship and probably a lot of time and effort that went into the room.

    Personally i associate them more with Gorm or Galidor, though you do bring up a good point. Not sure how they'd work either, but i do like that we have a shell piece that sticks close to the body and works as a good leg coverage piece. The legs on Obi-Wan Kenobi definitely feel like a more condensed version of what Kopaka's legs could be in the future, maybe if they printed detail on the shin guards then it'd fit the theme?

    All the new moulded pieces revealed in the 4 Star Wars Ultrabuilds (Not including heads/masks) For purposes of discussion of if they will be included in future Bionicle sets.

    True, thats why its 'rumored' Though yeah, i suppose it isnt much to go on, but it would make sense for them to announce a figure or details around near this time given the film release is around the corner :3

    Yeah, definitely seems to be good for providing some new unique pieces and recolors, i specifically like the black rib-piece, was worried we would'nt get that piece in black. Though i have'nt heard of a second wave of Star Wars... all i know is the following; Star Wars Jango Fett (75107) – £14.99 Star Wars Clone Commander (75108) – £14.99 Star Wars Obi-Wan Kenobi (75109) – £19.99 Star Wars Luke Skywalker (75110) – £19.99 Star Wars Darth Vader (75111) – £24.99 Star Wars General Grievous (75112) – £29.99 (Four of which have been revealed with Jango Fett and Clone Commander still unnacounted for) Source for prices; http://www.thebrickfan.com/lego-star-wars-constraction-ultrabuild-characters-revealed/ Personally i'd consider him a titan-sized set, despite my issue with the figure, his size and scale are what i'd consider a 2015 CCBS titan-sized set. Darth Vader i'd also maybe consider a titan set mostly due to coverage of parts and possible complexity of the body

    So the Marvel Avengers Video game figure is rumored to be Captain America; The winter Soldier's version of Falcon. Begin the hype.

    Words cannot express the disappointment that we have not seen more of these regions yet. Onua's Earth region for example is beautiful

    So by my count thats around 5 new CCBS pieces with the Star Wars Ultra Builds that could be reused with the 2016 Bionicle sets. The Galidor style leg shell piece definitely seems to be something we'll see, but wonder what else from those sets will pop-up in the 2016 sets. Personally not a fan of Grievous, especially given how 'filled in' Vader looked compared to him. Feel they could have done a better job. Though he seems good for tan pieces and the black rib-piece is definitely worth it. Will need to modify him though...

    Do you have a link to this thread? :L People keep talking about it, yet i've searched for it and not found it... :(
  13. Scarilian
    That exists? link? :3 Tempted to do the 3D midnight double bill on the 22nd xD Definitely could have been bigger, but then again, not sure i'd buy it if it cost any more even if it was a better set...
  14. Scarilian
    As shown by this image the stream of blue energy is still on the box art; (Linked due to size)
  15. Scarilian
    Ultron Prime scale
  16. Scarilian
    The Takanuva is impressive, but i feel the Makuta figure would need a little more if it ever became a set as it has really long arms and legs but a thin short middle.
  17. Scarilian
    Actually the clip emphasise how silly the scale is, in the trailer he's about 1 1/2 hulks tall. In the set form he is 2 hulks tall. o_o Thats a lot, what you planning :P
  18. Scarilian
    Yeah, the classic GG alternative face and legs kind of suck... Yay, more people interested in it :3 Would suggest checking out Elementary, its awesome
  19. Scarilian
    :P Thanks :3

    When are the summer sets out again?
  21. Scarilian
    I think people are comparing it because its our first instance of a 'villain fight' in Gen 2. Even if its not a main villain, it gives us a taste of what the animated fights will be like i guess?
  22. Scarilian
    Yeah, was confused by the original pic also, thought you were on about the thing behind Adam Jensen or part of his clothing. You mean something like how their are holes in the top such as this piece. If so that would definitely open up a lot of possibility for MOC'ing :3 What is up with the gold they have on Kopaka, why does it look better than the gold we got in the set form? Is a prototype? Yeah, i dont want the current ones fully replaced as i love the transparent variations and was hoping to get more of them, though a new unique piece added each wave will help with sales :3 Hopefully we do get that piece in gold at some stage, was hoping to use it for a MOC of Takanuva :/

    Cant cover DC Stuff here i am afraid, their is a DC forum... might be best to ask their about that. As for Marvel stuff; - Helicarrier released - Avengers Age Of Ultron sets released - Winter Soldier was exclusive with the Helicarrier (UK) however other places may be getting it later in the year as a polybag with purchases over $75 - Ant-Man set revealed (Spoilers maybe...) June release - Carnage Shield Attack set revealed August release - Sandman & Rhino set revealed August Release - Spider-man hideout set revealed (Green Goblin comic based) August release - Electro polybag appearing and disappearing - Rumors of a figure with the Lego Marvels Avengers game - release believed to be September (?)

    Only mentioned the one as felt refrencing both was redundant, though thanks for the clarification :3 I just feel they are too sleek, i understand Gen 2 has a new design asthetic but the intention seems to be to mirror the style of the original Bionicle, so not going through with those changes to the shells also seems a bit odd. Chima and Hero Factory introduced a bunch of printed shell pieces and i understand its cost effective not to use them, however i feel adding one or two printed shells underneath would have helped add increased detail to the different sections. One of the reasons you should have really read before commenting is that i am not simply comparing Gen 1 to Gen 2, but going under the understanding that Gen 2 designers are trying to make the astethic similar to Gen 1. I dont expect it to be exactly the same, but with techno-organic creatures such as the toa i dont really view them as being as sleek as the factory made Hero Factory characters or the armour of Star Wars characters or the organic/sleek vibe of Superheroes. There are certain things i feel the plain undetailed shells work perfectly with, but when it comes to Bionicle it just seems odd when most the body is covered with undetailed shells and then we see a new piece that has piston pieces detailed on it or printed chains such as the summer sets. The overall astethic is inherently wrong when compared to what they have designed for the new generation sets. They spent so much time making the heavily detailed axe/fin pieces used on Lewa and Gali for example or the shoulder pads for Onua and these are pieces that are too detailed to match with the overall designs of the rest of the set in my view. Would be interested to see that appear in set form, i just hope we do end up getting more shell pieces as we got new bone pieces recently and they are re-doing the torso piece for summer so hopefully we get shells with Star Wars or 2016 Bionicle. Their is only so much you can do with really smooth sleek pieces... Ah, i was mostly referring to the current wave of sets when you pointed that out as i cant speak for the summer. As for the summer, they do actually fiddle with the CCBS system quite a bit with the new bones, shells and otherwise, hopefully they do more of that as it actually helps the sets look more of what i'd refer to as Bionicle. The torso's give off a 'Bionicle vibe' from the sheer spikeyness :P Its pieces like that which i hope we get more of because those are brand new pieces that are good for MOC'ing and help make the summer sets unique, even if i'm not a fan of the new bone pieces i still like that they have changed it up and it actually does work with the astethic by having less smooth pieces on what are essentially skeletons xD They already limited the number of shells in the summer sets, what originally had 8 or so shell pieces now has about half that many due to the new bone pieces. As for getting rid of them, i dont expect that. I just think that if they can introduce new torso armour for Bionicle's summer wave, new shell pieces for Star Wars and new bone pieces for Bionicle's summer then their is nothing stopping them introducing some more unique or specified pieces in 2016. After all as i've mentioned one of the main things people buy constraction sets for is new unique parts :3 I think you are confusing 'arguement' with just long posts/replies...
  25. Scarilian
    People seem to be getting this confused so should probably explain... the idea of CCBS is the interlocking method. Pegs to shells, shells to balljoints. It is the idea of a bare bones skeleton to which you can attach shells and attach armour pieces. The skeleton is the aspect that remains a constant, you can redesign it however you want but it remains the underlying thing. How those armour pieces and shells look is subject to change as demonstrated via the many years of adaptations and new shell pieces that have been introduced. Changing the shell pieces or armour does not mean a change from the CCBS system Do i want a change from CCBS to something else - no. Do i want a change from the simplistic shells and armour pieces - yes. Its not me asking for them to change the system, but their is nothing stopping them from slowly phasing in some shell pieces that actually have a bit more detail or slightly more varied designs so they fit with the astethic, especially if Bionicle is popular. I mean, i'm literally asking for the same as the other conversation going on at the moment, for more unique sizes and shapes of shell pieces... :L Still not 100% sure what you mean based on the image, any change you could draw it, might be easier. Though yeah, would love for more new shell pieces
