  1. Do we know if these are coming in July, or in October with the TFA sets? Here's hoping we get pictures at NYTF.
  2. Agreed. I'm thinking of getting the set and selling off the figures to offset that massive cost. EDIT: I don't know what the chances are, but that runway better not be a gigantic sticker, especially for the price we're paying.
  3. Finally. I loved the Superheroes and Chima constraction sets. With the disappointing Bionicle summer wave, this is going to help satisfy my constraction fix for the second half of the year!
  4. The whole point of disallowing pictures is so competitors can't get an early look of the sets and try to make knockoffs early. The proper question should be, why bother to hide them when they're going to be in the public eye in less than a month's time with New York Toy Fair? 3 weeks can't make that much of a difference.
  5. Yipes. These sets are very disappointing. I was willing to give the prelims a chance but seeing them up close really let me down. Bare bones and most of their functions are similar to the Toa. I get the lack of armour as it's all part of the aesthetic, but they just don't appeal to me. I'll definitely be getting the Ekimu set, though, for him and the Mask of Creation. If I ever get any of the rest it'd be for those glorious blended masks. Oh well, at least it eases the burden of the winter wave, of which I'm getting majority of the sets!
  6. As mentioned above, (hopefully) it's to allow for pin connections. It's nice to finally see a new bone piece, though.
  7. Right. I knew I saw it somewhere, thanks! I'd completely forgotten about the torn cloth pieces! Those will definitely help to fill out the bare bones look of these guys.
  8. Ugh. I'm really hoping Deathstroke has a proper helmet. That's going to make or break the set for me.
  9. Was Ekimu ever shown wearing a Protector mask? (Prior to the prelims leak, of course.) I just re-watched the Legend trailer and he dons the Mask of Creation throughout.
  10. The Ekimu set is amazing! Definitely a must-have. Loving the MoCr. I'll reserve judgment for the rest till we get better pics (hopefully of the actual sets themselves at Nuremberg next week) but for now, I'm loving the 2 new blade pieces! Very Bionicle.
  11. The shuttle looks incredible! Of course the cockpit doesn't look as perfect as the UCS, but it still looks great! Brickset had me all worried. Now fingers crossed for an interior...
  12. Yikes. Really worried about the Tydirium. I might have to pass it up for the Final Duel instead!
  13. Wait a week for the Nuremberg Toy Fair, we'll probably see some pics then.
  14. Tan and purple?!?! Sold!! Really hope that these are just prelims and the Mask of Creation just wasn't displayed; it'd be quite a bummer not to get it in the summer wave.
  15. Well, no need to be rude... I haven't been following Ninjago, and it just so happened I saw the new sets in a store yesterday. I took a look at the sets and was just wondering what those symbols meant, is all. And yes! I do know ninja are Japanese. But Japanese and Chinese are two very related languages, they have many shared characters which mean the same thing.
  16. I really hope the skull villains have unique masks and don't all reuse the skull spider mold. Can't wait for Nuremberg!
  17. I'm so pumped for the Tydirium! I really hope it has an interior.
  18. That sounds amazing! The Deathstroke set seems like a steal. Really hope he has a helmet.
  19. Was anyone here at London Toy Fair? Assuming Bionicle sets were shown there, that is.
  20. Does anyone read Japanese here? I'm trying to figure out the symbols on the ninjas' new cowls. I can read Chinese, and I can only read these: Kai: Peace Jay: Goat (I know, goat?!?! What is Lego thinking... I guess 2015 is the Year of the Goat in the Chinese calendar, but still.) Lloyd: Fight/struggle Skylor: Six Zane and Cole's are the ones I can't figure out. Zane's looks like the character for mountain, but it has an additional stroke on the top right.
  21. Nice! I can't wait to see the new X-Wing in Lego form. Also, that's a giddying amount of sets to be released in one wave, but I guess Lego wants to capitalise on the first Star Wars movie release in ten years.
  22. I think you're right! I do hope that if that feature is present it works well, but I can hardly see how they're going to pull that off like in the movie - Cap's bike whooshing forward once it hits the floor. I'd rather have a nice looking interior than a feature that just drops Cap's bike down, but I doubt that will be the case.
  23. I do hope Ekimu uses teal. Not just because teal is an awesome colour, but also because trans light blue has been used so often I'm starting to get sick of it. Can't wait to see the summer sets! Only slightly more than a month till NYTF. On another note, I just got my first 2015 Bionicle set yesterday - PoE! I really love him, he's so cute. I can't wait to get the rest of the Toa sets - I'm going to wait for a sale to happen, though. The prices in my country are insane. I've already waited for so long for the sets to drop, a month or so more won't kill me!
  24. To be honest, the trailer's pretty underwhelming. That's not to say I'm not incredibly excited for the film though, I can't wait! I'm loving the new suit, I can't wait to get it in Lego form. Maybe we'll get a giant brick built ant for him to ride on?
  25. IIRC London doesn't allow photos so we'll most likely get some descriptions from there. Based on what we've been seeing the past few years, Nuremberg will give us some photos and videos, then we'll get to see more detailed photos at New York.
