^Agreed, the mask does look strange. It doesn't look like it has any depth, like a real piece, but just looks like a cutout. And that hole in the mouth....it doesn't look right.

^^Oh, Lind Whisperer, my idea took place in a reboot, not a continuation. However, I think that this story can work out in either situation. And I love that teaming-up idea, rather than my idea of just "henchman".

The whole "reboot vs continuation" thing is killing me; I NEED TO KNOW!!

Also, does no one think that the obelisk behind Tahu on the big picture has any significance? It looks like an arena of some sort....like those buildings on the boxes of the Glatorian Boxes!! Oh, man, this may actually be a continuation!! (Or, it could just be an arena...)

If it's reboot, it's gotta be Kini-Nui http://i.imgur.com/bv20GsR.jpg

That would explain the gold masks....

[Logan McOwen]

...Why's nobody talking about the hugeass Tahu at the top of the display? His shoulder gives us a very good inkling as to how the new armour piece looks!

Wait... What's that standing by the Suva? Don't recognise it... A prototype '03 Matoran?

It's a 2003 Matoran prototype, actually. Jaller specifically.

[Lord-Vorahk]

So that's why the Matoran's limbs in MoL look like the Toa arms and not the Bohrok ones... they were originally meant to have Toa arms...

[Chro]

Also, LOSS is ridiculous because he just looks like a big spider! At least the crabs looked unlike earth crabs; this just looks like A BIG SPIDER!!

I don't get why people say LOSS has arms, you can clearly see that he has 6 limbs, none of these are arms.

Am I not allowed to embed pics here? Or was it just mistaken as a "new leak" because it was cropped and tilted (if that is the right word) version of the pic we have been said is free to post. I didn't know I was this proffesional.

The mask featured on the top is the strangest thing in my opinion, since it doesn't share any aesthetics of Bionicle nor Hero Factory. It's has to be something personal for Great Beings.

EB does not allow embedding leaked images. They allow linking to them for some reason, even though TLG has "sharing" leaked images specifically mentioned in their legal notice they sent out a few years back explaining the leaked image policy to fan sites.

I meant '03, oops! Changed that.

What? He does't have arms, just big pincers. And anyway, he looks goofy with printed eyes. At least the Bohrok looked kind of creepy....

[Shakar]

I've been looking at the Skull Spiders (hey, they can turn into masks! How can I not be interested in them?), I know they come in 3 colours (plus the gold one from LoSS), but I can't tell the exact colours:

-The blue one is clearly, well, regular medium blue. Gali's colo- oh wait. Well, Surge blue then.

-The greyish one is... light bley? Dark bley? Silver?

-The green one looked lime to me at first, but now I see it's a much more drab colour. Could it be olive green?

I don't think he looks too goofy. I quite like the clever use of the torso enhancer piece as his 'face'. I can see what you mean though in part...

Hrm. I don't think it'll be olive. It just wouldn't seem right alongside all the other brighter things, although they do look too muted to be lime green. Maybe you are right.

This is official Eurobricks policy regarding leaked images.

If you find an image of a new LEGO set and it is incredibly blurry or stamped "Confidential", it is a leak-please don't post it here. If you are uncertain, PM a member of the staff for guidance and include a link to the questionable material.

Do refrain from sharing leaked images. Confidential sharing policy was discussed with Lego a few weeks ago and this remains to be our policy.

[dviddy]

I'm assuming all links to the standee have been removed, then?

[Vinyl Scratch]

If anybody still got that leaked standee pic, wouldn't mind if someone PM'd it. I'm curious.

EDIT: Thought we were talking about a new pic, nevermind.

[Agent Fusion]

Which one, the original or coloured?

Google bionicle 2015, it comes right up.

I thought the Manas were quite reminiscient of earth crabs. And if you want to be technical...

LOSS doesn't look much like an earth spider. It has six legs, opposed to the eight of our arachnids, and appears to feature a one-part body - quite different in appearance when compared to a normal spider's combination of thorax and abdomen.

I wonder if they'll be in Bara Magna, or (hopefully, I didn't care for the Bara Magna line) or back in the original world? I'm happy nevertheless, although if they don't have an great story line, I'll be let down. I like the looks of the blue (water?) one with turbines on his back. Edited September 4, 2014 by VBBN

Same, although the mask looks a bit goofy with the proportions on that one. :P

Anyways, what are everyone's favourite defenders? I love the jungle one, with the coloured joints. (I'll delete this question if discussed before)

EDIT: Also seems that the brownish "earth" one has yellow limb pieces!

WELL... I can't really make out the Ice or the Earth Protectors all too terribly well, but they both have potential to be standouts for me. That being said. Jungle Protector is top tier.

Agreed.

Water Protector is my fav so far, from what I can see.

Dunno, I think the Lord looks pretty creepy as far his general shape goes. He's dark, red-eyed and has sharp claws. I think his head printing will make or break it, depending how cartoony or realistic it looks. Also, I appreciate he's the most realistic constraction spider so far- far more so than the Visorak (and no, I'm not talking about the legs number).

My favourite is probably the Earth defender, but I like the Water D. as well (her/his weapon seems very neat).

And the brown (Stone) characters' bones aren't yellow, but trans yellow! I wanted more pieces in that colour for years.

[Kamen Rider Kiva]

For me, personally, I quite like the Water & Stone protectors. :D
