Tyranide

That's my fraggin' video! Well, this theory about Mata Nui body is very, very good for me. Well, if Metru Nui is really brain, then it makes sense why the civil war put his life in such danger - this city in work done by its Matoran is thoughts of Mata Nui, yeah. And Makuta wanted to eat his brain. Oh, yeah, supposedly I can go to my local office next week and MAYBE get some cool stuff... I've got information that they got big box of special promo things that will only begin selling in September.

I'll try. I haven't got personal scanner, but I'll try to use my friend's. Maybe even next week... I can't even use cell phone camera.

Well, today I got one of these books... For some reason there was very small number in the shop, so I got only one copy. So. Let me talk about Bitil, whose picture is covered by thumb. First of all, HE'S GOT VISORAK EYES. So - no mask, it seems that it's Hordika-styled head. Awful. And, as I can see, Krika too. Very strange for me.

That's not MY thumb... I think that this one is Makuta too. Judging by masks, two Mistika in the right corner are Tahu and Krika (the ones who I'll buy), and, I think, also silhouette of Gali can be found on the background. At least I think so.

But it can act as a handle! :) You're right, I must admit. That fraggin' "target audience" is younger that many of... us (ha) and they LIKE GUNS. Frag. But... Lookie here, what people in shop gave to my friend... This is a short book that contains pictures and descriptions of all BIONICLE sets and is labeled"BIONICLE History". But, wait.. let's take a look at last page... Text - "Follow new BIONICLE heroes. Mistika will become hit in August 2008". Something like this. I'm now trying to get one copy for me - this friend lives in another city.

That's handle. See, this things are hand-held weapons...

Yesterday at last bought Kopaka, Lewa, Antroz, Tanma and Radiak. You'd never believe me, but I really like Spiriah! ;-) And also I managed to get a look into this 2008 catalogue... cannot say very much about Mistika - pictures are really, REALLY small - but I can point some things. First, all Makuta have really new masks (not Kopaka's on Krika!) but these masks aren't really looks like, well, masks. Especially Gorast's - it isn't Pridak's head, but something very close to it. Secong, Gali really has those awful elf ears and she's, well, not "she" by the look of the set. And third (and most important!) - Onua really hasbn't any close combat weapon, like Kopaka. He just holds that strange gun, and that's all. But the thing ON his left arm is really Takanuva's chest armor (or the things that are placed on Jetrax T6 turbines). He looks... strange, but he really resembles old Onua in some way.

Well, then release date is month before the date listed in this catalogue. I think so because Phantoka release date here is February (I really, really will be one of the first Russians to get'em... jst go to the shop on 1st February morning...)

No, I think "lesovikk" is closer to "wood-goblin" or "spirit of forest". And Larisa (without "k") is female name... Catalogue was scanned by our biggest LEGO shop for its forum. I just made it available for English-speaking people here. I think if I go to this shop I'll try to ask to give this catalogue to have a close look at sets.. but can't promise anything. First I wanted to go here on February 1st (release date of Phantoka in Russia), but then decided that it'll take too much time. But sometime in near future I'll go there.

For all of you to knowm Mistika is clearly Russian word... just as Lariska and Lesovikk :) That means "mysticism", as my dictionary says. Why they are using my language??! Tell me what you wanna see... catalogue is available in another topic, and picures that I show you already are all that I have.

All hail me, people! :D Well. I also can't say anything useful about these pictures... just because I don't have better ones! I will agree with one of previous speakers - sets are good. Let's use simple example. Take this Tahu and rename this set into Toa Niggayo, as Ikki joked earlier. See how it changes your mind? Sets are rather good. Don't judge them by their names. At least in books we'll never see their appearance!

Well. This catalogue is the one distributed in Russia... but that doesn't explain why there's Indy pics, since there'll be no Indy in our country. One of the biggest LEGO shops on my city scanned this one, not me, so I can't take bigger or better pictures. I'll try, of coursse, but I can't promise anything.

Well, full catalogue was uploaded. I have only one better pic of Tahu, from catalogue's cover... Is it really Kanohi Hau? I. Don't. Think. So. For me it looks more like old Knights' Kingdom helmets...

Well, today I managed to get catalogue scans. They're not very big and detailed, but still looks good. Here we go. Instead of looking at al these Brickshelf pictures, I'll recommend you to simply download this catalogue here.

Yes, I'm now uploading pictures on Brickshelf... then I'll show you all of it!

Well, now I have full scans of 2008 catalogue. Here we go! I'm now uploading all catalogue on Brickshelf. Stay tuned :)

Well, no. "Makuta" is the secies name, not only character name. There's whole organization names Brotherhood of Makuta, and Makuta of Metru Nui (that's how he's called) is its leader.

Yeah. So, Takanuva is really now both Shadow and Light energy wielder. Funny, but that means that that 'strange' white and black set is real :) I love 1984! :D

And if he'll continue persisting and'll never show these pictures?..

Well, as I see, I've missed all fun here... does anybody knows that Russians have been asleep and couln't see pictures of new canister sets? Oh frag.

...And I'm already here to help! Pohatu Nuva 'Silver' reward - OPO612 'Gold' reward - OAU867 Vamprah 'Silver' reward - AVG825 'Gold' reward - PRA628

Hate it. Every time I think that something will be good thing... happens something VERY BAD that spoils everything. Hate it. Won't buy those "Weapons". Not at all. Other sets - let's see their pics (when they'll be released or leaked). Maybe sets will change my mind.

And I posted it two hours before...

Woah. I need the drugs Bionicle Story Team use!
