Author Topic: The new bionicles :(  (Read 4419 times)

lol all the series/sets/generations/seasons remind me of that magic game.

i had tons of friends that were into that, and tried to get me in.
i was like "well it looks fun, meeting up with nerds at a comic book store every week to chill"
till i found out you gotta rebuy everything every year, because your outdated ones cant be played with other decks from other years in most cases.

what a scam, it only adds collector's value to it all, but the fun is lost.

the Piraka were badass.
and the bohrok.
and the only epic one this time is the bonehunter on the red dinasoar thing.
All the 2006 sets were ftw for me

I liked the first ones.  :cookieMonster:

Back when LEGO had an identity crCIA.

They still suck, what a coincidence! Just rename stuff after Easter Island things and call it a new monster whatever.

The more recent masks are all teethy and stuff :<
Also wth is with all the launchers? I hate those things.
They are making an MMO based on the Glatorian line.

I lost interest in the whole Bionicle thing after they took the storyline out of Mata Nui.

I stopped after voya-nui. It just kind of got old :(

I was looking through the newest Bionicle product pages, and... (guess what...)
The Toa have taken a second fiddle. It hasn't really happened before, which is why the series has gone so well, but just as Lego's starting to make cooler masks again, they make these new, stupid things called the "Glatoran". I've been around since Gen. 1, so I know what I'm talking about here. First, the series was just a little toy series that you built action figures with legos. These were fun, and their respective weapons didn't do anything special. Second season, still the same way, but they didn't look quite as cool. Third Season came with "OMGWTFBBQ" as these ugly creatures supposed to be the tribe leaders, whatever they were named, were released. Then, a little good period after that, and then they released a series supposed to be Toa + whateverthenameoftheevilcreat uresarecalled, which was kinda cool, but meh. Then, they releaed the Piraka, which weren't really a different "series". Those were cool. Now, (skipping a part of Bionicle history I haven't followed) There are three Toa on the site in plain view, and two more "special Edition" ones come with "vehicles". I was like "But Pohatu and Lewa are the coolest ones!" And they are. Go to the Bionicle page and look it up.

tl;dr: RAAAAGGGEEEE

Discus.
lolwut

I've been following the story line since the 6th comic. The story line from the 1st (Toa Mata) to the 4th (Hordika) was good, but then it got pretty stupid without any gears or anything, they got to be like action-figures. But these new series "Glatorian" I see are bringing back a couple of the features of the first Toa, with the bringing back of alot of old Bionicle parts. Plus, to those thinking that they are basicly erasing the old series, they aren't, there's a new movie that I hear has a connection with the old series and the new one.

So, basicly, the new sets are (To me) an "Apologie" for their recent sets before this.
Also, I know what I'm talking about, I have nearly %70 of all the Bionicle sets and most all the comics.

Big Wall o' text


 But yeah, I liked the old ones the best, like the bad guys who turned into spheres and could shoot out masks, those were EPIC.

Oh my god, I loved those things! I was sad when the stoped making them. D:

I have about 70 Bionicles, all of them taken apart and put into a Rubbermaid bin.

Now I build giant bionicles out of pure imagination.

Usually my imagination boinicles are flimsy, but, then again, last time I built one from my imagination was a while ago.

Generation 12: I forget, I saw the new sets on brickfair or w/e its called.

Started going downhill after Piraka and Inika. That was cool stuff.
Oh, forget. Not more!
Also, those were indeed cool stuff right there. The Piraka had friggin' tails!
