  1. Yeah you can't just go by number of sets, you have to take into account price and size. Heck, the Toa we got this year are almost Titan-sized sets compared to most of G1 and the Protectors are about the size and price of G1 Toa. So in G1 terms, we got 7 Titans(Including LoSS) and 6 Canister-sized sets for the first half of the year.
  2. I'm sad the new sets will have less trans colors it seems. I'm hoping Onua is still quite bulky and I like the sound of those drills. I'm also very happy to hear Lewa uses trans apple green in place of keetongorange.
  3. That was a good one and it happened just like we all predicted. Also I love how Onua is so OP and also how Pohatu told him to bash, just like Captain America telling Hulk to smash in the Avengers. I'm sure we haven't seen the last of Slicer but I'm kinda sad that scene didn't last another episode. Also I dig his maniacal cackling. Finally an episode that kinda puts Onua front and center!
  4. But dat glorious trans apple green doe, I can't wait to get my hands on a bunch of those bones for some black and green mocs.
  5. I totally dig how those Star Wars shin guards look on Gali. I would also love to see that shoulder armor piece in the new line if it's printed. I could see there being some really cool metallic tribal designs like the chestplates from this year.
  6. Wow very nicely done! The character choices were a bit odd, but perfect use of the clips and timing of the delivery.
  7. I love the idea of a black and green character and these sound great aside from the possibility of ANOTHER spider and scorpion, I mean seriously!?! Surely LEGO wouldn't do something that stupid. I'll take these with a grain of salt until we get more credible sources/pics.
  8. I'm hoping for some new creatures that haven't been done before. I'd love a Chameleon, Tree Frog, Lemur or Tucan for Uxar, an Ankylosaurus, Armadillo, Kangaroo or Thorny Devil for Ketar, a Shark, Lobster, Squid or Dolphin for Akida, a Turtle, Snake, Monitor Lizard or Salamander for Ikir, a Mole, Triceratops or Boar for Terak, and a wolf, Sabertooth Tiger, Mammoth/Mastodon or Elk for Melum. Mythical creatures would be really cool too, like a Griffin, Hydra, Cerberus, Dragon, Chimera, Sphinx, etc. Or better yet, completely unique creatures that are amalgams of various ideas, just NO MORE INSECTS OR ARACHNIDS. I get sick of those easily. I also want some quadrupeds and unique builds, I don't want anything like the Brain Attack bipedal beasts, I'd rather have something like Savage Planet. Some Dinosaurs on the other hand... Imagine if they took the scrapped concept for 2011 and are doing it now! Highly unlikely, but it'd be great! After all, the sets kind of sound like what 2011 was going to be, assuming the Toa are going on a romp through the jungle. However in order to to some good dinos the sets would have to be quite large, which would not fit the $15-$20 price range of 'canister' sets. One can dream.
  9. These are awesome! Well done. I particularly like how you included the sholes on the Turaga.
  10. They are all very nicely done but Mantax was my favorite of the Barraki so I went with him.
  11. I hope so too. I think Kopaka's creature should be a pet wolf.
  12. Well Ekimu might be from the Ice Tribe while Makuta might be from the Earth Tribe. I'd rather they were a different, more ancient species compared to the villagers though.
  13. I really like that they actually have names and that we are getting creatures. I just hope they are like rahi and not like the brain attack monsters. I really hope that kopaka rumor is false, I mean he's a super popular character. Even if it is true, I've always been a Toa of Earth fanboy, especially Onua. A combo set of Kopaka And a creature would be awesome. I'm picturing Jaller Mahri
  14. I would love some titan sets although I can understand if that doesn't happen given the size of the sets now. Heck, G2 Tahu is the size of many G1 titans. I would love to see some CCBS titans in the vein of Witch Doctor(who I regret not purchasing when he was out) or General Grievous who appears to be quite large from some of the pictures we've seen.
  15. My guess is we'll get a Batman set that happens to have several members of the Suicide Squad that look kind of similar to their movie incarnations. That's the most likely IMO.
  16. I am totally digging the new names and alphabet. This is the world building I was waiting for! It seems Korgot might be the female Protector which is interesting. By the way, has anyone else in the US been getting the commercial for the Skull Villains while watching Youtube? Because I have and it's exciting. Granted, the sets come out for us in about two weeks.
  17. I really look forward to using the new ribcage torso armor for shin guards-- ah la Tahu. I bet it would look really sweet, although I would like 2 of the gunmetal ones from Grievous for that purpose.
  18. That Batmobile looks amazing! Instant buy for me, I don't even need to see the rest of the set lol.
  19. I really like the new info we got and the fact that Skull Grinder has a name, Kulta, which is cool and seems to be based on the term 'occult'. I really like that commercial and I too would very much like to see more cgi videos for gen 2, they were one of my favorite things in gen1.
  20. I totally dig the new commercial, the organ music is cool and I really like Tahu's spinning jump slash at the end.
  21. Now I want to use this piece as a gauntlet for a moc of War from Darksiders! These combiners look amazing and I hope they are featured in story. They are very well designed and it makes me hope that we get titan sets in the future.
  22. That Stormtrooper looks fantastic! An instant buy for me for sure. I'm surprised at how much they put into making the blaster, I like it!
  23. So the New Order Stormtrooper that was revealed has a new gun piece that utilizes the spring loaded shooter for CCBS... am I the only one that thinks this lends just a bit more credence to the rumors from awhile back about shooters with legs that use the spring-loaded shooter?
  24. That would be an awesome homage, especially if Onua is the one to save him, as well he should.
  25. I would also love it if they used the Robo-Dinos in the near future. Also, nothing says that they would have to be horde enemies. Not to mention there could be a dino tribe of sorts that ride the dinos or the dinosaurs could be Barraki-like monsters that are still very intelligent and deadly.
