The Alchemyst

They're Talking about NZ$. [-The Alchemyst-]

I'd get it, but I'd lose the money [and loads of time] by going to San Francisco. [-The Alchemyst-]

Kaxium looks pretty neat for its price, technically two vehicles and two Agori, and you can play with them separately or together. I think this is good for people on a budget [like me] But I'm not going to get it because it just doesn't wow me. :P Absolutely Loving Cendox though. And I thought Skopio was $99.99... o.o Good to see that it isn't. =/ [-The Alchemyst-]

Just Jetrax? XD Anyway, that sounds pretty awesome. What would be awesomer is if you took off all the armor and weapons and stuff, you'd get the Form we saw in the 08 animations. Doubt it'll happen, but I can dream. :P [-The Alchemyst-]

I'm not calling them bad, I like them, and the art, especially. But they were meant for little kids, and are cheesy. But they're supposed to be like that, and that's what I'm trying to say about the movie [albeit, the target audience of that is a bit older, I think] [-The Alchemyst-]

*Skims* Oh boy, I love waffle. :3 Anyway, A-S, stop pretending to be a mod and threatening Algernon emptily [or giving him empty threats, whatever]. [Wait, this is becoming Ironic in a sense; I'll stop here] And whatever, people have opinions. I do think there was some misunderstanding between people, and both people were right [and wrong]. And I learned that Analogies isn't the best way to prove one's point. :P But I do get what Algernon says by saying that it is giving a Cartoony feel, with all the purple, colors and etc. But I do think we should reserve most opinions until we hear some dialogue and see other characters. But I also think the narrator sucked megablocks. I'm pretty happy that the characters are closer to the sets. I always saw the Movie characters as unfitting and ugly. =/ And remember, for Bionicle, nothing can get cheesier than the Secret of Cervatus. EDIT: Oh yea, loving Stronius even more, it's a Hero Skrall. :3 [-The Alchemyst-]

XD Pine Baron. These are pretty funny little things, I'm surprised that the tree can hold something though. o.o And I also love that Top Hat piece, gives a villain a bit of class. :P [-The Alchemyst-]

He was saying it as a joke. :P It's definitely a Glatorian head. I don't see what people like in Vastus. Especially his mask, it's just so ugly. @_@ [-The Alchemyst-]

<3 I think the Agori has a Flip mask. and I'm now 100% sure that Baranus is an exclusive. The Agori has an orange version of the super ugly Thornatus Rider mask. D: The Teaser CGI looks pretty awesome. I hated the narrator though. ._. and Mata Nui was closer to set Form! And shiiiiny. And Vastus's canister is a bit different. o.o Looks so awesome though. TLG: Make each canister like that. Nao When I get Mata Nui, I'm definitely going to raise the Metru chest up a notch. And his upper legs are a Metru top leg, but his Arms are a Inika Top Leg. =/ And Scythe is smaller than I thought for Vastus. D: [-The Alchemyst-]

I like Stronius for how his armor and looks give off a sense of Character, and difference. Club, awesome armor, and mask. Gelu is a cookie cutter, and his looks don't emanate a character. =/ And I just hate Vastus. It seems that either people are undoubtedly in love with him, or absolutely hate him. He's so ugly. D: [-The Alchemyst-]

Nah, gotta say, sheer recolors and new joint design, and new parts, Summer pulls ahead. Hey! Let's all review each set with their winter counterpart! Skrall--Stronius: Stronius wins here I think. Strakk -- Gelu: IMO, this is a tough one, Gelu is pretty meh, but I never liked Strakk either. But what I like in each are the masks and Weapons, in which Gelu wins. Malum -- Ackar: Hands down Ackar. Mata Red + Orange + So many beautiful recolors. Gresh -- Vastus: Gresh, definitely. Although I do like Vastus's weapon a lot more. Tarix -- Kiina: Tough one. Tarix has gold [although it's the lame Brutaka gold], but Kiiina has Light Blue. Kiina definitely fits the water motif though. I'll go with Kiina. Vorox -- Mata Nui: Toughest one of all. Mata Nui has an awesome number of recolors in Keet, plus awesome new weapons. But Vorox has a better part selection of the recolors, I think, but no new weapon. D: This is a draw. Summer: 4-1-1 [lol] And the CGI for the movie is so shiiiny. @_@ [-The Alchemyst-]

Kiina would be so awesome if her torso didn't suck so much. So let's go down the set list. Kiina: Loooove the armor, mask and weapons, and especially the Light Blue. Body sucks so bad it's not funny. ._. Cover the Hordika necks please. Stronius: Most beautiful set ever. ._. Mask is amazing, armor is new and gives a large bulk, Club is two-part! It all gives him a lot of character! <3 I do dislike the Silver Inika body. =/ Ackar: ._. I was bashing him before, but now that we see the colors, I do like him a lot more. Although the build is simple a cookie cutter, the large flame, all the new recolors [Orange and Mata Red! <3] And a great use of the Mata Nui thing. I wish it was in Mata Red though, D: Sheer number of recolors is amazing though. o.o It's like the new Vorox [but the Vorox looks a lot cooler. :P ] Vastus: Eeew, eeeew, eeeeew. Mask is the ugliest thing ever. Arm armor is neat, but still looks pretty ugly. I like the blade and tubing, but other than that, this set is the worst of the bunch. Gelu: Cookie cutter build like Ackar, but he fails in the recolor area. Gotta say though, he has my favorite weapons [icy Tahu Nuva blades!] and mask [so awesome.] Mata Nui: I love Keet, I don't know about you guys, but I really do. I love the new huge Matoro Claws [there's some in Keet too! <3], and all the recolors. So lovely. My vehicle feelings haven't changed except for two: Skopio: What a compact Tank! I really like this. Cendox: More love. Mata Yellow! Treads! Samus Helmet! I adore this set. So my revised list of priorities: Stronius Mata Nui Cendox Ackar Kiina The others are probably ones I will not get. [-The Alchemyst-]

I personally don't think his torso is High tech enough [it's the City Police in a Purple Mech! Ruuuun! :P] I wish I had gotten some Speed Racer sets or any sets that have High Tech Black suits. ._. Thanks though! Yea, I love Purple. :3 Too bad there aren't many Purple sets that I know of. ._. Yea, the spikes give it a lot of flair. The trans one is this one, found in a couple of 07-08 Bionicle sets. And I have a Tan Mech in the works. :D I'll be sure to post it here. Yea, always thought it'd look cool like this. I was initially going to make a Marine out of it though. ._.;; [-The Alchemyst-]

I don't think Zesk is that awesome at all. ._. [Gets run over by fanboys] Only set worth getting 20 of is... Well... Can't think of any. ._. Unless they were reaaaly cheap. :P [-The Alchemyst-]

Thanks to both of you, I'm wondering when the Sandstalker instructions are going to come out, I was assuming the next magazine. And I just realized why I hadn't recieved the January Issue at all... I forgot to renew. >_< [-The Alchemyst-]

So yea, first Minifig manned Mech I've posted here. I've always wanted to use the Bionicle Visor as a windshield of sorts, and I loved the Purple from Dark Panther [and some from the Mini Knights bus]. So I used both. Click for the Gallery: Story: A mass produced Mech for armies [Yes, very generic, I know], the Talon- Heavy Armor class, while slow, rushes in the front lines of battle, absorbing fire, as long ranged, hard-hitting Mechs attack from afar. The Talon- H.A. has its purposes though, other than being a shield; it rips up armor of large mechs and vehicles with its large claw. It's hand is used for grabbing limbs of large mechs that try to attack it, before stabbing them where it hurts. Yes, the Fig sucks. I have neither modern/high-tech Torsos nor that sort of hair. So sue me. Comments and Criticism are much appreciated. Thanks, [-The Alchemyst-]

Found a bunch for $19.99 at the Lego Store in Chicago, and probably at other Lego Stores as well. Heading back tomorrow, might pick it up, alhtough I'm not much of a Castle Fan. =/ [-The Alchemyst-]

Maybe next Brickmaster? Oh, and if anyone has the Voya Nui font posted a few weeks ago, could someone repost it or find me a link? I've searched up for it many times and yet I can't find it. ._. Thanks. [-The Alchemyst-]

Never fails to astound me. I really like how Tarix looks, less wimpy, more awesome. [-The Alchemyst-]

Just went today, and some good stuff on sale. Bionicle 2008 Canisters are all 50% off The Grand Prix set is 50% off as well, for $29.98 The other Speed Racer Set, with the Command Center Truck is selling for $19.98 Troll Warrior Impulse is $1.74 Street Sweeper is also $1.74 Grievous was $44, I think. And I think the UCS AT-ST [Not sure about the name, it's the walker in the jungles with the Ewoks. <_<;;] for $44 as well. Boeing plane was selling for $50 or so. Troll Battle Wheel for $19.98 Mars Mission base for $44. [-The Alchemyst-]

I remember reading his original topic, then PMing him about it, he never responded. He was blatantly insulting Greg, and all his questions were storyline based; he was whining why some questions weren't answered. Here's the funny part: All the questions were answered before. ._. Then he rants about "not getting the answers" because Greg was too busy eating a burrito or something/ That kid is not 16. [-The Alchemyst-]

Definitely just to resell, and the set number is 1349, I mixed myself up with the copter set. @_@ [-The Alchemyst-]

The Spielberg Directing one, with the camera, and the backdrop, the software and etc. I found one recently at a local toy store, and I was wondering what would be the estimate price for it, MISB. I'm thinking of buying it, since Bricklink seems to give be some awesome prices... But I'm not too sure about the demand, so I thought I'd ask the more educated people of EB here about it. Thanks, [-The Alchemyst-]

Kyry or Crotesius is on the Cendox, I think, and I also believe it's Crotesius, seeing he's already gotten some character in RotGB. It could also be an entirely new character, but I doubt it. ._. I don't think we know Scodonious's Tribe, but Kirbold is an Iconoxian [yay new word], so I'm guessing he's one of the Kaxium riders. Unless the Kaxium riders are Tajunian [Tajunese? o.O]. [-The Alchemyst-]

What, it's not like you aren't/weren't a child. >_> Anyway, I like the idea. I always saw the Matoran as little children, especially the Mctoran. Running around nearby the Toa, panicking, all small and stuff. [-The Alchemyst-]
