I believe it was already confirmed the Nuva were reappearing in '08 when the list was discovered . . .
-
Y'know, you guys can hate me for saying this, but if this takes place in Vezon's alternate reality, I think it'll be SO AWESOME. (Mostly becuase I want a new Vezon set badly.) Anyway, maybe this is kinda like an ultimate battle-thing where old good guys come back and mesh with the new ones while Mata Nui and Makuta fight in the background and their sets aen't released until summer or something?

Hahah, call me crazy, but I actually really like that idea. xD A new Vezon set would be totally awesome . . . About this list though, it seems completely fake. I don't think I can come up with a single good storyline reason for all of these characters to be mashed together in a single wave. (But the idea of an updated Tahu, Takanuva, and Rahkshi actually sounds pretty cool . . . ) EDIT: Maybe they're gonna re-release the main iconic characters just to rerelease them without any storyline reason? (Transformers does it all the frikken' time.)

Meh, vaguely interesting update. Good to know Greg had something to do with the writing of the movie. (Even though I think we already knew that.) What wories me is her line about teamwork . . . I really hope this movie doesn't have an umpteen-hundred friendship speeches. Because that would ruin a lot of the movie IMO . . . -

I dunno why there's all this Mata Nui hate going on. I think that he's a really good set. And damn protportions! These aren't Humans, dammit! They're robot-fleshy-armored-muscle-things. And they don't need to look exactly like a Human. I really like his color scheme. It works much better than Ignika did. And not to mention he IS Mata Nui. I mean, he's like, the BIONICLE character. >_> My favorite Legends figure is Kiina, though. (Even though I don't have her yet.) She's really cool-lookin', and I really like her vaguely feminine design. -

Grrrr. They gave Strakk an accent. That makes me totally angry. D:< Aside from that, Raanu's voice was also disappointing. The Agori all being sets also made me mad. But the action was really cool and comparatively super violent compared to the first three movies, so that might make up for the rest . . . -
Man, the more and more I look at the Toy Story figs, the more and more I get psyched! I remember one of the first things I did when I was allowed to play with actual minifigs was pretend that two of them were Buzz and Woody. They didn't look anything like Buzz or Woody (I think Woody was actually a Timmy figure.), but I still had so much fun pretending they were! And now I can get that feeling back and then some with these figures! I can't wait!!! (Also, I know it's been said to DEATH before, but LEGO WALL-E needs to happen NOW. NOWNOWNOW.)

I guess I'm a vague purist. I used to allow Mega-Bloks and generic brands into MOCs, but then I snapped and attempted to throw most of those away. I will however use fan-created pieces (Like BrickForge, etc.) if they look close enough to actual LEGO.

I thought the movie is when the GB lab would be revealed/come into the story? -

So, I finally got Mata Nui. He's totally awesome. Should I do a review of him, or were Front's/BZP's reviews good enough? Anyway, Mata Nui is a really great set IMO. His color scheme flows together very nicely, and the sheer fact that it's Mata Nui makes me not care that he's keetorange. I wanna get another one of these Ignikas, and cut it's mouthplate so it can be more movie-accurate. I'm also hunting for a lego piece that accurately recreates the 'loincloth' and Click. I'm using a scorpion piece now for click, but . . . I dunno. It just doesn't look right. :/ -

I just got/finished reading Raid On Vulcanus, and it was really good. The level of violence make me happy, since I could canonicaly picture blood eveywhere in this one. Not to mention the characterization is really great. I'm really sad that this is the last actual BIONICLE novel . . . -

Of course, because after all the Glatorian feel friendship and compassion with each other, they can combine their powers and create some kind of battery for a vehicle or something! Also, Kiina has to put aside her fights with Ackar (Which have never been mentioned before.) and has to get over the adversity of being the female Glatorian! And then Mata Nui won't fight Tuma, they'll play the BIONICLE action figure game! Though I think Vezon showing up on Bara Magna would be pretty epical . . . (Waits to be murdered by Vezon/MU/Awesomeness-haters.) -
MOC: What good is a town without a LEGO store...
ShaddowCroc replied to Modulex Guy's topic in LEGO Town
Hahah, totally awesome! You put a lot of detail into this, and it looks really nice! I especially enjoy the Pick-A-Brick wall and storage area, details that even an official LEGO set would probably not put in. :D -
I'd suggest starting off with a relatively low bidding price. (10-30$, I guess) Eventually people will take notice of it, and you might get dozens trying to outbid each other. Then in the battle to outbid eachother I'm sure the figure will reach a high enough price for you to make quite a significant profit. :D

Yeah, I'm not sure how much I can believe this . . . It doesn't hold up much water. Or sense . . . And I'd be uber ticked if we went back to the Matoran Universe. All of the characterization and awesome that's been built up in Bara Magna would be all for naught. D: -

I've recieved replacements from LEGO really fast and easily in the past. (Unsurprisingly they were all ball joints from 2008, which seem to break if you look at them funny.) -

So far Raanu's left hand is broken, as is his head. My Strakk is holding up fine, but I'm reluctant to do anything uber-violent with him in fears that he'll break. But I thought Mata Nui's most glaing character flaw was that he didn't explicitly care about what was going on inside him. (Not to mention he's been unconscious and probably has no idea what the toa/Matoran/turaga have done for him while he was asleep/dying . . . ) -

I dunno, I kinda like how there are multiples of the same weapon. And it's toy-accurate because I'm pretty sure everyone who's been collecting BIONICLE stuff since '07 has a million of those swords. -

Damn, man. That was pretty epic. I loved the animation. So awesome and sweet. The fight was short but cool, and the character models were just really awesome. :D Oh, and did anyone notice that Mata Nui has teeth? xD -

Last year the leaks came in early August, evidently much earlier than leaks usually present themselves. So early that evidently a few people began to think that it was all part of a weird conspiracy thing LEGO was pulling. So I don't think we'll see them this month. Maybe August though. I'm putting my bets on September or October. (Or maybe TLG got better about preventing leaks since last year, and we won't see any leaks at all . . . ) -

If that's true, then that's pretty cool. Blum's been one of my favorite voice-actors for quite a while. Though I think he'd be better voicing Strakk, the Skrall all being voced by him fits as well. :D -
Okay, those Toy Story pictures are one of the most epically awesome things I've ever seen. So much win . . . I can't believe these are real. It's like a dream. An awesome, totally real dream. :'D

Hey, am I the only one who hears Tuma's "I'm going to enjoy tearing that fancy mask from your face." line, and instantly gets reminded of Optimus Prime's "GIVE ME YOUR FACE" line from ROTF? >> That, and the chance that Mata Nui gives the Glatorian toa powers are just increasing this movies epicacy. (Though I dunno if giving Gresh wind powers would match very well. Powers of plant life, anyone?) -

Holy hell. Those character models are AWESOME. I could spend hours just looking at each little pic and seeing the intricate textures and details. This movie should totally be released on Blu-Ray. :D The bios and quotes aren't bad either, though. I just really think the character models are pure win. -

Heh. I'd personally be pretty pissed off if Raanu was the traitor since I liek him, but if he was, thenit sure would add a lot of emotional stuff to the situation. Something like "I betrayed you to help my people! The people of Vulcanus shall reign supreme!" etc, etc. . . . Then he turns into a giant robot for some reason, and kicks everyone else's megablocks. Until Mata Nui restores him to sanity by the power of friendship or something. >> Then again, the DVD extra is called Metus' Revenge, sooo . . . I personally think it's a bit obvious . . .
