Ecto Posted May 11, 2008 Posted May 11, 2008 (edited) He hasn't been on.Oh, and I think I beat you to the punch. But I specifically asked if the Island/Dome was his face/head. Edited May 11, 2008 by Ecto Quote
Zarkan Posted May 11, 2008 Posted May 11, 2008 Woah. Woahwoahwoahwoah - WOAH. Man, what a shocker. I never would have expected this - Mata Nui isn't somewhere in the universe: He IS the universe! Now this is sounding more like the original bionicle. It's great that Greg is still keeping elements of the old story style within the new story style. I love how he doesn't give us specific awnsers. It pisses off some people though... Yeah. Some people seem to think that greg is a constant liar and contradicts himself constantly. It's more that he constantly gives us as little info as possible to keep the storyline secret, even if it means using technicalities like this whole "Mata nui is not one of these things, he is ALL of them!" That's what I like about him. Quote
Zaktan of the Shadows Posted May 11, 2008 Posted May 11, 2008 Yeah. Love how Greg does that. In fact, I wouldn't be suprised if he said "The BrickMaster Rahi isn't an Avokah - it's a mutated one!" -ZotS Quote
Clonie Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 (edited) 3) Well to reconfirm, Mata Nui is not the island of Mata Nui?4) Nor Metru Nui? 5) Nor the Mata Nui stone (recent theory)? Thanks, ~U No, he is not any one of those I think we've done it. Yay. He also said Mata Nui (being) is as easy to get to from Mata Nui (island) as it is to get to him from Voya Nui. Why? Because Voya Nui is part of Mata Nui as well. Wait. Since Karda Nui's too big to be a part of him, he'd have to rip Karda Nui's roof (the southern continent) off to stand up. Hm... Wait... And Karda Nui's dome is shielded, So Mata Nui can disconnect himself, Without breaking the roof? And Pit mutagen is his blood, since it travels through all the domes?

Swert Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 Hey guys? You do realize all of that's illegally leaked, correct? I'd hate to be you guys when Lego starts browsing this place again. -Swert EDIT: We're in no danger. Lego "leaks" things all the time "accidentally". Besides, we're just linking to it, not hosting it. ...like anyone really believes these things get out unintentionally anyway... -JINZO Quote
Lord Thrawn Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 Correct me if I'm wrong but wouldn't LEGO's beef be with Amazon, who made it public, rather than the speculators? Quote
Ikki o' Moopyville Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 Who cares if LEGO finds out? What can they do to us? That is, if it IS even leaked... -Ikk Quote
Swert Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 Yeah uh, I talked with Binkmeister, the man behind B.com right now, and he confirms that's leaked. It's NOT supposed to be posted. I'm not saying you guys would be in trouble, but you won't be winning a fruit basket from Lego for christmas. -Swert Quote
Ikki o' Moopyville Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 (edited) EB is not dependant on LEGO like BZP is, meaning we can post and talk about this stuff. Now, don't get me wrong, I have immense respect for LEGO, Bink, and the Web Team, but I really see no reason we should stop our discussions of this video. No offense. -Ikk Edited May 12, 2008 by Ikki o' Moopyville Quote
Swert Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 Well, other than this is the 2008 Sets and Images discussion topic, not Leaked Videos discussion topic? -Swert Quote
Zarkan Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 I'm not saying you guys would be in trouble, but you won't be winning a fruit basket from Lego for christmas. -Swert Well, seriously, if TLC wants to blame someone, blame Amazon. Now that the trailers leaked and is widely available on Youtube, there's no point for eurobricks to ban discussion. I've always understood that BZP can't post stuff like taht because they have official affiliation with TLC, but Eurobricks doesn't. We've always been separate from TLC, and I don't think that will ever change, even if we don't talk about the trailer. Quote
Ecto Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 (Although we're probably not the only forum talking of this) Change this to "Bionicle 2008 Topic now Jinzo? EDIT: Agreed. Changing now. And really, we're not BZ or any other site like it. We don't need nor benefit from censoring talk on things that Lego (once again?!?) allowed to slip through their fingers. Again. Again again again. Again. lol Again, -JINZO Quote
Ikki o' Moopyville Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 (edited) Wow. Brickshelf removed my pictures. EDIT: Re-uploaded. Bring it on, I say! -Ikk Edited May 12, 2008 by Ikki o' Moopyville Quote
JINZONINGEN73 Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 So wait... then all of this means... ...the Bohrok were Mata Nui's crabs? Ikki o' Moopyvillepost Today, 06:56 PM Wow. Brickshelf removed my pictures. EDIT: Re-uploaded. Bring it on, I say! Flickr is your friend. ; ) Quote
Wrinkledlion X Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 (edited) No, they're barbers. They shave plants off him. EDIT: Wait, so does this mean Mata Nui has islands in his crotch somewhere? I'd hate to live there... That's probably Zakaz... Edited May 12, 2008 by Gunnar Quote
Commander Andrew of 501 st Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 someone tell me what the hell water is suppost be then? and stone(tumors?!) lol Quote
Ikki o' Moopyville Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 (edited) I think y'all taking it a bit too literally -- Mata Nui is no human. True, he is shaped like one, but beyond that, how much do we really know of him? From the looks of it, he has a rocky surface -- 'skin', basically, with his spirit being inside, and the mayor processes being executed in Karda Nui and Metru Nui. Though I'm wondering -- if Voya Nui really is as far south of Mata Nui as I believe some sources state, Karda Nui and the Mainland can't be located near where any human's heart would be (further supporting what I said up thar ). More like in one the legs... Interesting stuff! EDIT: Thanx for the advice, Jinzo! -Ikk Edited May 12, 2008 by Ikki o' Moopyville Quote
Neaku Posted May 13, 2008 Posted May 13, 2008 (edited) Hey I'm a new member blah blah blah. I've been watching this board for a couple years now. I now have something important to add though, so I joined. Blah blah blah. Could that be concept art for Mata-Nui's "mask" to be rising out of the water? EDIT~ Teal doesn't look that good here. << ~N Edited May 13, 2008 by Neaku Quote
Clonie Posted May 13, 2008 Posted May 13, 2008 Wow. Brickshelf removed my pictures.EDIT: Re-uploaded. Bring it on, I say! -Ikk XD I think y'all taking it a bit too literally -- Mata Nui is no human. True, he is shaped like one, but beyond that, how much do we really know of him? From the looks of it, he has a rocky surface -- 'skin', basically, with his spirit being inside, and the mayor processes being executed in Karda Nui and Metru Nui.Though I'm wondering -- if Voya Nui really is as far south of Mata Nui as I believe some sources state, Karda Nui and the Mainland can't be located near where any human's heart would be (further supporting what I said up thar ). More like in one the legs... Interesting stuff! -Ikk I keep wondering about Karda Nui. I really think it's too massive to be part of him... but on the other hand, how would he separate himself from it? Eh, I'm sure we'll find out in summer... I had a read through the official Mata Nui topic over on BZP. There's no evidence against this theory. Quote
Swert Posted May 13, 2008 Posted May 13, 2008 Bink informed me he had spoken to Amazon about taking it down (not sure why it was there in the first place -- I think heads are going to roll on this), but no idea where else it might be or how it got out, since I wouldn't think this is something we shared with anyone outside of the company. Answer from Greg, asked by a buddy on BZPower I know. Bold is for importance, not done by Greg. Does this help sway any decisions? -Swert Quote
Ikki o' Moopyville Posted May 13, 2008 Posted May 13, 2008 (edited) None at all! *sees Bink in topic, runs and hides* -Ikk Edited May 13, 2008 by Ikki o' Moopyville Quote
Clonie Posted May 13, 2008 Posted May 13, 2008 Besides, we can't un-discuss it. We know now that he's the domed universe. And that Greg has produced no evidence against it. Quote
Swert Posted May 13, 2008 Posted May 13, 2008 Well, I don't think you know what you're talking about. He was clearly standing in Karda Nui, man. Plus, if he was under it, how could he get out without blowing up EVERYTHING IN SIGHT? Seriously. Besides, we don't even know THAT'S Mata Nui. Do you? Show me where you joined Lego and learned that tidbit, then you'd be fired for violating your Non-disclosure agreement. Thank you. -Swert Quote
JINZONINGEN73 Posted May 13, 2008 Posted May 13, 2008 Lol, calm down. Anyway, that one pic of Mata Nui overheard and the eyes and the arms in the water... wow. If it's Mata Nui or not, I don't care. It's a cool concept and quite unexpected, by me at least. Oh, and lol, calm down. There is no BZ here, no Lego influence, no legal ramifications, etc etc... Quote
