~Wrack'n'Ruin~ Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Maybe I should just say the story I get from the images? Tuma, the champion, and his servant, the dude in his colours riding the dino, run the Colosseum. There are six tribes around it, who compete annually in the Colosseum. They've each got a Glatorian to compete this season, with their own attendant, I.E. the small sets. They each battle in a series of fights, with their own agendas and personalities, and using their different attendants to scurry around the colosseum for a side-story. These guys uncover some sort of plot which brings the rugged gladiators togetether against Tuma. Tuma unleashes Dino-rider on the Glatorian, who defeat it by learning the value of Teamwork. Then they defeat Tuma together. Tuma reveals another plot-point, and then the Glatorian set out on an adventure that leads into the second-half's sets. Or something.

The 2009 sets seem very cool and I need an avatar. Where the other two getting there's? Anyway yeah it does seem like a gladiator thing. I don't know about the hands though. Bionicles beginning to cross with other themes these days....

I wouldn't mind that at all. And it could do the fighting/morals thing at the same time! =D However, due to the fact that some of these guys look distinctly like baddies, I doubt that's spot on. Perhaps some of the people do what you said, perhaps Tarix, Malum, and Gresh, while the other three cut a deal for money/power with Tuma. ~Bunda Edit: And Tarix and Strakk/Skrall would be the leaders of the groups...

Pencoin Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Thats I good idea, but maybe it would include all the 2009 sets? prehaps? .
~Wrack'n'Ruin~ Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Thats I good idea, but maybe it would include all the 2009 sets? prehaps? . I'd rather they left the arena and went somewhere else, so we could cover more plot in one year, but that's just me. =P
Bundalings Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Something I just thought of: I think Greg said there would be more focus on Matoran early next year, and that would make more sense if all the Canister sets were villains. Just thought I'd throw that out there. ~Bunda
~Wrack'n'Ruin~ Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Although, Glatorian could really just be bulked-up combat Matoran, but who knows. I'd really love it if some of the evil looking sets turned out to be good. Like, Skrall could be a nice guy, and depressed nobody wants to hang with him. And Zesk just wants to show you his bottlecap collection!

Yeah, that would be awesome... but Lego has the nasty habit of matching their personalities to the sets. XP I especially want Strakk to be good, as he looks only a little bit evil. And awesome. ~Bunda
~Wrack'n'Ruin~ Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 On Mata Nui... Does anybody have the set list again? I'm curious about something...
Bundalings Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Bionicle CORE 3/Vastus Bionicle CORE 7/Stronius Bionicle CORE 8/Ackar Bionicle CORE 10/Kiina Bionicle CORE 11/Gelu Bionicle CORE 12/Mata Nui Those are the ones with names. The others were just gibberish. ~Bunda
Bundalings Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Did it say if they were Cores or not? Hmm? No. All the others had... let me check. I've got it somewheres. Here we go: IMPULSE 1/Atakus IMPULSE 2/Raanu IMPULSE 3/Tarduk IMPULSE 4/Berix IMPULSE 5/Metus IMPULSE 6/Zesk Bionicle HPP 4 Bionicle HPP 3 Bionicle SHP 1 Bionicle CORE 1/Skrall Bionicle CORE 2/Malum Bionicle CORE 3/Vastus Bionicle CORE 4/Tarix Bionicle CORE 5/Strakk Bionicle CORE 6/Vorox Bionicle SHP 3 Bionicle CORE 7/Stronius Bionicle CORE 8/Ackar Bionicle CORE 9/Gresh Bionicle CORE 10/Kiina Bionicle CORE 11/Gelu Bionicle CORE 12/Mata Nui Bionicle HPP 1/Fero & Skirmix Bionicle HPP 2/Tuma Bionicle MDP 2 Bionicle SHP 2 Bionicle MDP 1 That's it. ~Bunda
~Wrack'n'Ruin~ Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Hmm. Well, I can guess. Stronius: Big-muscled brown guy. Ackar: Red fish guy. Carries a net. Vastus: Round black guy. Very big. Kiina: Green Kung-Fu chick. Gelu: Blue Kung-Fu chick. Mata-Nui: Jesus.

Kiina: Green Kung-Fu chick. Gelu: Blue Kung-Fu chick. Mata-Nui: Jesus. I don't think Mata Nui will be white... as "Gelu" translates to "Frost" in... Latin, was it? I'm hoping for green or tan. ~Bunda Edit: Silly coding... >_< Edited August 22, 2008 by Bundalings
Shakar Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Hmm.Well, I can guess. Stronius: Big-muscled brown guy. Ackar: Red fish guy. Carries a net. Vastus: Round black guy. Very big. Kiina: Green Kung-Fu chick. Gelu: Blue Kung-Fu chick. Mata-Nui: Jesus. Harhar. You think Lego includes two gals in a group of six? Heck, it's a miracle that we had Gorast this year (Earlier in the year, before we even knew the names of the Mistika sets, Greg said "female Makuta is in summer. Yes, I won that argument."). Maybe Tarix is a lady, certainly she would be more feminine than Gali Mistika.On the "Matoran"...what if they act as sort of squires to the canister sets? I would really like Mata Nui to be tan or dark tan. Or...what about ALL GOLD? Imagine the MOCing potential.... *drools* Shakar
Antrozek Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 my guess: stronius: the dark red one with gold armor, got two big swords Vastus: the black one with sand armor, got a really big sword with barraki eyes like gems Ackar: a green one with black armor, got gold weapons Kiina: the she-blue one with transparent pieces and plate armor, got a large staff Gelu: the she-white one with gold armor, got two knifes Mata nui: a gray one with gold armor, he haven't got any weapons but it's the most cool set
Xion Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 I am using Reya's account on BZP, since I'm banned there myself. -Ikk How u know his password? Nice one though
iLego94 Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Do you guys know when the summer catalogues ship. I might start eating my Vahki sets if I don't see Mata Nui soon! ~iVahi
Phantoka Kopaka Nuva Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Do you guys know when the summer catalogues ship. I might start eating my Vahki sets if I don't see Mata Nui soon!~iVahi Not until next year. I'm thinking Mata Nui would be tan. Although it's a bit disappointed to see the god that we know and love, released as a canister set.
~Wrack'n'Ruin~ Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 I'm kinda hoping he has a Piraka torso so all the fans commit suicide. Also, Blue pins, no weapon, and like, four launchers. And his mask a recoloured Hahli Inika mask =3
Pigbrick Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 (edited) Is anyone a little worried about the price of these? The fact that the Mistika were thirteen dollars and the new line is ten times better makes me worry about the price. I do hope that it stays at thirteen but I highly doubt it . Edited August 22, 2008 by Pigbrick
Kakihara Smile Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 They'll probably be about the same cost. The mistika weren't expensive because that is how much lego had to charge for them, they were exensive because it was how much lego could charge for them, blaming the price hike on gas and such.

And his mask a recoloured Hahli Inika mask =3 You forgot the red 2 + axles. Also, he needs to be dark bley and silver. And the Piraka torso would be backwards, of course.Shakar Edited August 22, 2008 by Shakar
