It definitely is. Look at Kiina. >_> Anyway, I bet Skopio is also $80, Cendox is $20, and the usual for the rest, for the titans, just kick it down to 08 prices. i.e. $20, 30, 40, 60, 80. Then the usual $12.99 It's Toywiz, they inflate their prices randomly. >_< If you want proof look here, lol. Oh and about your gallery BFA, I think like 5 people uploaded all the 09 pics from Kris Abel to B-shelf. XD [-The Alchemyst-]

I lol'd throughout the entire thing. XD No offense to anyone, of course. I just think EB has some pros and BZP as some pros. EB just isn't focused a lot on Bionicle, so there isn't a wide variety of many discussions. But then again, the topics do go off topic, and the BZP topics aren't all very discuss-ful. =/ But as I said, pros and cons, pros and cons. EB has a lot more system, and after joining here, I've been getting back into System. But in BZP it's a lot easier to find some Bionicle-related trades, availability news, and reviews.

Greg said that Gresh would have a level of 5 out of 10 on importance in the Summer. Which probably means not the major character. We don't even know the main basis of the movie, so I think it's pointless to speculate, I mean, 2009 is taking quite a turn from previous years, it's seen in the sets and in the characters themselves. I think I'll wait for some preliminary screens of them before I make an opinion about the movie. [-The Alchemyst-]

That could, unless they hitch onto the artificial gravity and become another Mata Nui universe? Thought the new serial was okay, like the turn with Vezon. Nothing better than an insane Skakdi that travels dimensions. :P Kaxium design is amazing, like I thought. I see a Pohatu Propeller Holder thing in silver, and possibly the Samus mask in silver as well? Baranus just sucks though, neat masks, and more chain, but colors are all over the places, the chariot is flimsy, and overall, it just doesn't look appealing to me. The only unique/hard to get MOCing pieces [excluding the mask] are the Gunmetal pieces, including Onua's shield, Black Mantax claw and the Gresh half-shield, but all are colors we've seen before. But wait, is Baranus confirmed to be an exclusive? Because that means we will see/have seen the masks elsewhere in August... [-The Alchemyst-]

Because Rahi would best be not gripping things? Still not getting either set though. :P I'm interested in the head build though, and it's relative size. If the size is not shrunk comapred to a Glatorian, I'm sure it'll be funny to see Strakk on top of a Sand Stalker. He'll probably crumple the poor little Rahi. ._. Anyway, got Axalara, but it's late, and I'm beat from finals, so I'll build it some other day. Oh, and if the worlds collide, that'd be so awesome for future stories. Everything we knew would mesh together and interact with each other or something. Matoran and Glatorian, with Vorox attacking Metrus or something. Unless it's something like War of the Worlds, and everyone dies because of some bacteria. :P [-The Alchemyst-]

Thanks for the link. And That is so awesome. It's like Plastic Surgery, except for battle. This allows some creativity I suppose. Oh, and Axalara for $44 at Target, last week it was $62. Should I wait and hope for up to 70% off [ $26! maybe next week], should I get, or just pass? [-The Alchemyst-]

Thought the Glatorian/Agori were Organic. Must be out of the loop. >_< I'm pretty sure the somewhere, either it was Greg, S@H or the AFG Rules, that classified it as a creature. My bets are that Skorpio is still a vehicle. [-The Alchemyst-]
-
They become Biomechanical? o.O Or became? ._. I'm lost.
-
I'm pretty sure Greg said "Vehicles in the Summer". I'm pretty sure Skopio = Vehicle. But Spikit? Ask him, who knows? Rahi could have been derived from Bara Maganese. [-The Alchemyst-]
-
Loving the 3 masks and the color of the Agori rider [Nuparu <3]. Is it a Metru green-Silver Piraka Foot or a normal black one? Overall, not liking the set though, looks like a MOC, cluttered with Silver too. [-The Alchemyst-]
-
Eh, Baranus is okay. That is the wimpiest Chariot ever though. If you're going to make it that small, make it an Agori. >_> Spikit is okay, disliking the colors, loving the 3 masks in one set though. But other than that, unappealing to me right now. I'll wait for clearer pics. Still... That is one wimpy chariot. [-The Alchemyst-]
-
Haven't even seen a Mazeka. I don't want to go to the Suburbs to go to a Walmart [but the prices are really tempting me]. And the Lego Store never seems to have 'em. But I don't find him too appealing. It's a neat set with a cool technic build, okay colors, but I just don't like how it looks. ._. It'd probably change if I ever see it out of the box and built... but... >_> Anyway, I'm going to be saving up for some of the Summer Sets anyways. [-The Alchemyst-]
-
But the Vehicles are fuuuuuuuun And since Rockoh was the cheapest, with a zhooting function, and it's pretty small, it was the best one. If it ever goes on clearance, [probably now/soon, especially the usual 50% off in Lego stores/S@H], I recommend it to anyone. A fun build, good piece assortment, best function, and a small wield-able size. Vultraz does not and will not ever count. And you can't swoosh a Swamp Strider. :P I do agree with your other points though, and I think the colors are what really set apart the Toa Mistika and the Phantoka. Depending on one's more hate/love for one of the colors it could change everything. Pieces and masks did it for me though. Oh, and I forgot to mention the most glorious set ever in 2008, Takanuva. Best Titan ever, such a good build, really posable, and spiffy, it's just awesome to put him on a desk and move him around with neat poses. Plus he had a bit of white technic parts and recolors, which are always nice. Only if he had a covered back. ;; [-The Alchemyst-]

I'd be surprised if they haven't chosen a composer yet. The movie is coming out in the fall, and all the voice acting has been done since like October. I bet the soundtracks are done. But I'm not sure if the "leaked" ones are it, I just find it hard to believe. ._. And a bunch of it sounds semi-trance. [-The Alchemyst-]
-
Eh, VBBN's are higher quality. And Rayg, I have to say, I think the Summer 08 was better than winter. I mean the Toa were all simple and covered in nasty bley. They carried clunky Midak Skyblasters and were overall disappointing. The Makuta were better [<3 Vamprah], but overall the best set, IMO is Toa Ignika. Then in the summer we have the other Three Toa. I have Tahu and Onua, and with a few mods [aka shrinking Onua], without any extra pieces, I enjoy them a lot more than the other Toa. They have the new jets, they have sleek, neat masks. And the silver > bley. Then the Makuta are different. While I do think the Phankuta are better than the Mistika Makuta, it did reintroduce Mata Yellow, bring some interesting designs, and summer brought the return of complex sets. It also brought the best set of 08, Rockoh [Completely my opinion]. 07 Winter also had the Barraki... but the Mahri were awesome... But they had Cordak Blasters... Hmmm... I'm split on this. 07 was a pretty weak year for me. [-The Alchemyst-]
-
Guessing that was pointed to me? It's because I don't like some of them :P Maybe I'll get a Yetrax for like $30 [yay sales] Then... A couple of Vorox. ._. And Skrall. And a Malum. Heck, one of each Canister, except Skrall and Vorox. [-The Alchemyst-]
-
Lot of these are really good. @_@ Good thing it's a raffle. I have to remember to make a MOC by tomorrow. I want a change to earn some rare bricks. [-The Alchemyst-]
-
Eh, it's your/your dad's money, do whatever you want with it. With that money I would have gotten... Dwarve's Mine - $60 A Sansa [iPod that's just a lot cheaper] $50 2 Vorox, a Skrall, Berix, and Gresh. $60 And I can't think of another way to spend the remaining $90 ._. Or I would have just gotten a Laptop on sale. :P [-The Alchemyst-]

XD So yea, Three Guesses on who I am. >_> [-The Alchemyst-]

^^^ At the GB Post: Lol wut? And that's what I meant BFA, thanks for catching that. XP Rubbing Alcohol removes Sharpie marks easily. I'm mad they have a NXT 2.0. I have 1.0, and now they come out with this like 2 years later?! And it looks so much better. ;; [-The Alchemyst-]
-
Ackar's Flame sword? Take one MAta Nui Weapon piece. Add a Flame. Ta-da! And i think two of Vastus's Shoulder armor make up Kiina's Body Armor. Personally, it looks like the Ignika is Keet. D: Looks like I'll be getting Vastus, Kiina and MN, maybe Gelu. And Cendox. I'm the only guy who like the set it seems. ._. [-The Alchemyst-]
-
Legends? How'd Mata Nui fit though, this storyline takes place in a month, and He just popped into BM out of nowhere. If Mata Nui is gold, that would make it the best set ever. All those recolors? In Gold? Awesome, but I doubt it. D: And Thornatus Rider Mask Fails. Hard. It's like taking a Piraka face and ripping off the eyes. [-The Alchemyst-]
-
In <3 with Cendox. Great for MOCing it looks like, with the pieces and Mata Yellow and I just like the shape. Plus Samus Helmet and $20. <3 EDIT: Kaxium has a great design, but nothing outstanding in the part choice. Thornatus has loads of tan, but meh, I won't get it. Skorpio: I'd so get it if I could. [-The Alchemyst-]
-
Thanks! It was Legends! I still be it's the Movie Tie-in thing. Kiina = Mata Blue Spiked Feet! New armor everywhere, Epic weapon. Loving the Chset armor though, and how the shoulders rise up like Jaller Mahri. And Crystal Blue. Gelu= Seems like he just has two halves of a Snowflake on each side. =/ And other than that, his weapon and neat mask, it's a simple set. He looks really cool though. MN = Recolors win. Still can't tell if it's Keet or Orange. It doesn't look like Mata Yellow or Tan at all. ;; Armor is nice, weapons are... new Hahli Mahri Style Claws? D: Vastus: New armor, cool blade, Awesome mask, and it looks like Metru Green Krika Armor. Ackar: Confirmed that it's an Inika leg with an attachment, looks like it can be useful though. Is that Marbled Inika armor on his legs? :O 4 Red Mahritoran blades, that's nice, and he has a cool sword. Stronius: Still can't tell anything yet. ._. Club, some strange Shoulder armor, and some black Hewkii Mahri Armor it looks like. To Toyfair! [-The Alchemyst-]

I saw something like that a few months ago. The "Welcome theme" sounds like Spiderman. ._.
