Eh, I'm probably the only one who doesn't think Stronius is super special. Don't get me wrong, he's a great canister set, but then again, so are all canister sets this year, IMHO. And I'm not one for clubs. Vastus is much more awesome with his SCYTHE and snake-themed armour. And I still think Mata Nui is the best out of all of em. Not because he's Mata Nui, but because he's a very well balanced set, great colour scheme and most of all, he resembles the character he has to resemble. The Ignika is still the Ignika, what can't be said of all the Nuva from last year, aside from Takanuva. I'm an Ignika fan, through and through, which is probably why I don't put Stronius on the top of my list. Well, that, and the fact that Stronius mistreats Vorox. I love Vorox. Mistreating them is a no-no. Bad Stronius.

He's 49,95 euros in Belgium, too.

You know, guys, it's really interesting (imho, of course), to watch Click closely in the new clip we got. It's kinda cute to see him watch the fight between Strakk and Ackar as if he understands what it is all about, and even more interesting is when Mata Nui talks. Click turns to listen to Mata Nui when he says Ackar has the courage of a true Toa, and when Mata Nui later says "He was clearly defeated!" Click can be seen nodding in agreement. What a smart bug, eh?

I'm gonna get him, too. Sure, the colour scheme is terrible, and some of the build looks funny, but... That golden 08 Ignika, I need it. And I've got money to spare, and I don't really like the vehicles, so, yeah.

It was interesting enough for me. At least we know more about the Element Lords now, and who they were.

In my opinion, the small crowd was better than the huge one in Mask of Light. It makes it clear that there aren't a lot of Agori, as Greg has said, instead of the hundreds of Matoran that suddenly pop up in Mask of Light that we never saw in any of the media before. I do agree that it's a bit of a dissapointed that they all look the same, especially when there are other Agori in set-form of the fire tribe that could provide different helmet shapes. But all that was made up by the quality of the fight. ^^

Raanu said: "We're just Agori, we're not gonna fight a Glatorian."

Man, what a great clip. The Ackar vs Strakk fight was fantastic.

Same here. After seeing Bara Magna, I don't like the MU anymore.

Get what exactly? I really need to order Raid on Vulcanus so I can read it...

Well, last year Greg wrote the Final Battle, which contained some pretty violent deaths for Bionicle, like Icarax's. So I don't think a not-obvious traitor would be too difficult for Bionicle.

I just thought of something I'd love to see in the movie: while Mata Nui takes on Tuma, Ackar, Kiina and Gresh face of against the Skrall, that Metus and Berix fight each other in an epic swordfight with either of them being the traitor. That way, the Agori get some action too! And it would be epic, to see Berix shout as he blocks Metus' Ice Axe: "Hmm, let me think about that for a second... Oh yeah, we TRUSTED you!" as he swipes at Metus with his sword, only to have Metus block it with his snowflake and... No? Alright, then not...

Well, it was still a better fight than any in the previous movies, IMHO. Only Matau vs Vakama came even close. Better than a certain game of kohli, at least. But hey, we probably have Mata Nui vs Tuma to look forward to.

I hope it'll be the same with Gresh. It probably will, but you never know...

Or perhaps the chapter that was included in Raid on Vulcanus.

Yes, I would, lol, but I wasn't thinking about how he acts to Mata Nui. It's just that his voice has something... sinister to it. But maybe I'm imagining things. What I am not imagining, however, is that the Vorox's lifecounter got moved up from the ankle to the lower back. Oh, and the Helmet's pincers can snap. I like that.

See, Bionicle 1, 2 and 3? Now that is how you do even a minor fight. Vakama vs Matau's got nothing on the Vorox fight. Awesome clip, awesome movie. Love how Mata Nui's Ignika works and how the Vorox was animated. Very good, all of it. Metus sounded very... traitory.

Well, it's the Ignika we're talking about... I wouldn't be surprised if it turned Tuma in the next part of Mata Nui's weapon arsenal, next to the Vorox tail and Click.

Well, Greg said it IS possible for the Ignika to give the Glatorian Toa powers, though it could "probably" not do it on its own. So yeah, enter Mata Nui to give the greatest and most loveable mask ever a hand in making the Glatorian powerhouses... And you know what I find LOL? That Tuma's model even shows that the green marks on his helmet are stickers. XD

Guys, the Legend Reborn now has its own section on Bionicle.com. We can get a better look at the models of some Glatorian now, as well as quotes of the Glatorian Legends of the movie. ^^

As obvious as it sounds, I'm thinking Metus is the traitor. I just don't see Raanu betraying his people to the Skrall, not after all we've seen him do for Vulcanus. And Berix is TOO obvious in my eyes to be the traitor. So Metus it is, I think. There really aren't a lot of options anymore.

Having got over my initial disapointment at the lack of Vorox today, here's my opinion on the voices: Berix: I agree with everybody who said that his first line is like he is confronting the traitor. I'm not sure about the voice, I'll need to hear it in-movie to know if it fits the water Agori or not. But it's not bad. Ackar: Great! Exactly how an old Glatorian who is beginning to feel his age should sound like, imho. Like his line of "armed with only a tail and... that thing". Kiina: Exactly how I imagined her, hyper, excited, boasting... Perfect fit. "Name's Kiina, a Glatorian and one of the best. And you just won me a lot of bets." Briliant line! Gresh: He's not bad at all, really. Sure, Gresh is the youngest of the Glatorian, doesn't mean he needed a teenage voice or so. This one suits him, and stresses the point that he tries hard to be serious all the time. All in all, sounds good. Now where's my Vorox?

I'm disapointed. I wanted to see a Vorox, not behind-the-scenes, no matter how cool it is to hear other voices. :(

Oh my god! No way! My dreams came true! Walking with Dinosaurs - Bionicle-style!

Perhaps, but frankly, I'm not interested in reading about failure after failure, or the death of some characters that I like (Tren Krom, White Teridax, they are doomed to die now).
