What was the worst construction set?
MakutaOfWar replied to Bigger Fish's topic in LEGO Action Figures
I don't see why people complain about the Inika builds being plain, they had more customizable options then ccbs has. -
You know what I just realised, the Protectors could have individual names deeper into the lore. Because Ekimu in the summer is only called Mask Maker in the set, so maybe the Protectors have more unique names? I hope they're the Turaga. :3
-
Ah, thanks guys. :P
-
Wait, what's the source of the rumors? I think I missed something...
-
I want more villains. [/._.]/ Or Rahi.

Tahu's blades would be awesome in a Gen 2 Vahki remake. :P -
Discontinuation of those colors for that piece most likely. Constraction doesn't get the budget like it use to, and I'm guessing technic doesn't either. I could ask the same about Tahu's hands and feet not corresponding with his armor, even though red existed doesn't mean they will still use it, sadly.

This Koro ain't big enough for the two of us...
-
I'm calling it now. I bet the central area of the MoUP resembles Teridax's mask.

I remember getting Mata Nui in May of 2009, best day ever.

It seems the more I try to make a point the more people want to argue. I suggest TLG show more fan love; "NO". I suggest find an equal appeal; "You're wrong." If you don't like my opinions then don't argue it. At the end of the day they're my opinions, though I can say I feel bad about this community and your accepting of under-appreciation. Again my opinions only, no need to argue now, is there?
-
I'm not the only one with my opinions, I'm pretty sure there are others who feel the same way. With that there is a possibility for a percentage loss instead of trying to fully appeal to both ends of chart. What would kids care if Tahu had actual red hands and feet instead of silver? They could probably overlook it, but I definitely have seen other people complain about it who are below this "target audience" which may or may not turn them away from the sets but there is still that chance, but I guess it's TLG's risk in that department. All I'm saying is I wish Bionicle had the same complete feel as it used to, which appeals to old fans while raking in new ones. It's not a sense of entitlement, just because a fan wishes times were like they were. It's not like I'm demanding TLG fork over the Gen 1 building system to feed my desires, or that of others who feel the way I do, I'm just stating they could have done more. Although it is only the first year, so there's that. And I said before, I still love the sets, as do many others, but TLG shouldn't focus on the "target audience" more then old fans, find an equal ground. Ranking a group higher then another is elitism, which sounds stupid since we are talking about action figures but it's true and not morally right. :P
-
Then they lose a customer. Not a very smart move on their part is it?
-
Okay, so as a fan I should accept the fact that I give love and receive none in return? Whatever.
-
If there is one I can't stand with ccbs it's how bland the regular armor is, and as much as I want to say it feels like Bionicle deep down it is still only HF, and it's cheaper then it should be. Sure the new piston add ons is an awesome addition, the weapons feel like Bionicle, the masks, even a more customized build(which is only really due to the gearbox), but take those away and what does that give you; Hero Factory. The fact that TLG only cares about the "profitable audience" is megablocks and it seems like almost everyone here is being, and allowing to be, whipped. I still love the sets, but lets face it, is TLG giving it all they can; NO. Edit: Why does it say megablocks where I put b.u.l.l.s.h.I.t?
-
So basically you all are saying that TLG is allowed to be cheap and un-dedicated to their fans "because they can" and that's alright?
-
What I'd like to know is why do we go crazy with every ccbs recolor we get? If TLG is more financially successful then ever why are they giving us so little compared to Gen 1? I think it's pretty sad, the sets are amazing don't think I don't think so but why don't we get unique bone colors like we did, or giving us more non-metalic armor? We used to get that kind of stuff all of the time, even in 2001, look how diverse things were then yet TLG was about to go bankrupt?
-
Is that official or just observation? Also I thought the documents that predicted Okoto and 5 summer sets said there would be a PC, Xbox, and ps4 game.
-
Awesome, especially the Nui Jaga, Rama, and Manas, those are my favs. And very nice and creative Rahkshi.
-
Oh, haha, I didn't know but that'd be fine. :P
-
^I only chose brown to fit the setting but my first thought was also purple, I love the purple.

I know this is kind of random but here is some 2016 speculation I came up with. What if next years first wave contains Rahi remakes with a Makuta in the summer? I thought about what Rahi's functions could be and what masks they could contain akin to the originals, with the exception of color differences, but useable with CCBS. Fly Rahi(Nui Rama): Lewa Apple green, 2 trans blue Hau's, 3 gear box fuction. Scorpion Rahi(Nui Jaga): Pohatu Brown/Orange, 2 Brown/Orange Mask of Earth's, regular trigger tail function. Bull Rahi(Muaka): Keetorange, 2 Gunmetal Hau's, complex trigger function. Serpent Rahi(Tarakava): Gali blue with one respective blue Mask of Stone, two complex trigger functions. Crab Rahi(Manas!): Red, with 2 Mask of Jungle's, again two complex trigger functions. Now to explain what I mean by "trigger functions". The regular Nui Jaga could have a more simple stinger tail while the complex triggers are more so whatever that thing is on the Magma Mechs right arm(collected those years ago). And the prices I figure the first 3 around medium sized sets while the latter 2 large. Just thought I'd share some speculation. Sorry.

Nobody's mentioned skull villain mask powers. Anybody think they'll have any? Also badass MoUP up there.
-
Totally with you on 08 Takanuva for build. That's probably the reason Witch Doctor is my favorite build of CCBS because I definately see similarities between the two.

Fallout Bionicle!!! So that's what Fallout 4 is...
