80 Dollar Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 It says on Fero´s picture that we´ll see these characters in a new BIONICLE movie on DVD, good to know. :D Fero...This name is very well known in my country as a pretty common name for a gypsy.
Pencoin Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Mata-nui won't be tan cause Vastus means rock or something unless he is black... Thanks for the gypsy thing it seems to make sense 'cause he is riding the that rahi.
Kowakian Monkey-Lizard Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Here's my take on the projectiles. Why on earth would LEGO make a spiky, pointy ball the can be launched of HARD PLASTIC? Even I think that's silly. That's a lawsuit waiting to happen! So of course they're gonna be a one-piece, spiky ball. And to Bunda, I think the "separation" you were seeing is all in your head. :P KML
Pencoin Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Erm the Spiky-Zamors arent one piece. There Zamors with holes in, and you put the sparks in... .
Xion Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 how to bump the peice counts up includes 12 spiky things per set
JINZONINGEN73 Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 QUOTE (~Wrack'n'Ruin~ @ Aug 22 2008, 12:57 PM) *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 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 No, no, the mask has to be asymmetrical, to make sure it's no good for mocers. And the launchers have to be the megablocking rubber squids. The feet have to be the retardedly huge ones with spikes coming off all over them. Various body parts need to be swirled with white like Hahli Inika. Oh, and his middle limbs are those bent-up Bohrok arms. And if they REALLY wanted to see the wrists flowing, his torso would be a hollow chest plate from the Metrutoran.
VBBN Posted August 22, 2008 Author Posted August 22, 2008 They are rubber and plastic but not Zamor with holes

Well, they never used the Metrutoran torso in a canister set. They could use the big megablocking Av Matoran torso instead, the one found in Kirop, Gavla and Photok and Bitil I mean. Oh, and the arms would be assymetrical, like Hewkii Mahri. And he would be loaded with silver, like the sets you love.The scary thing is that beside the Metru torso they are perfectly able to produce what we suggested. Shakar
Pencoin Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 One thing you forgot was that all the pieces were cooled down to quikly so if you take em off, snap!. This is a funny thing we got going guys .
Kowakian Monkey-Lizard Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Seriously guys, I'm telling you, it's a RUBBER Zamor-spiky-thing. No way would it be hard plastic, that'd HURT. LOL You just wait and find out and be disappointed. :| KML
Pencoin Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 You know what I love about these times? When I say loads of things, and no one agrees with me. When what i said was confirmed to be right, they all say i'm lieing about me being right . If these are rubber why arent normal zamors ?
Ikki o' Moopyville Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 (edited) How u know his password?Nice one though He's a friend of mine, so he trusted me with it... and I've yet to stab him in the back. And now for something completely different: I don't remember actually being this *excited* about Bionicle in over half a decade. Not just the sets, but also the start of a new story, set in a new world with new rules -- and the simply beautiful environments we see in the backgrounds on the these pics. This is everything I dreamt of... -Ikk Edited August 22, 2008 by Ikki o' Moopyville
Pencoin Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Likewise Iggy, I really like the arena steps behind the pictures it gives you this emergreing or enter feel if you know what i mean... .
Zaktan of the Shadows Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 I liked the 08 stuff, and now the 09 stuff is leaked... I love these figures. The hands and colours and designs are cool. But Mata Nui as a canister set? megabluck no! ~Air Spirit
Strakk 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 I think January. Every year is about the same. Yes, these images have arrived so early but...
Bfahome Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Uhh, If those were viking horns, then how the heck can they stay in an upside down zamor launcher iwth nothing holding them> Aren't the spikes what hold them…? O_o And bear in mind they could be changed ^_^ <3 '09
Kakihara Smile Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Yeah, those are not preliminary shots or prototypes... So, don't expect ANY changes. They are probably going to stay exactly like they are.
Bfahome Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 (edited) But remember the Barraki? They had different launchers even when showing up as sets not in a catalog, so it's possible. Not to mention there's still several months until their release… Meh whatever. Edited August 22, 2008 by Bfahome

Oh yeah, I remember that with the Barraki too. Hmm. I guess at times like these it's best to remember that these are preliminary photos.And Bfa, you're here too?! Sheesh, is everyone from BZP joining? LOL KML
The Dor Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Leaked images = another round of BZP people who want info. anyways, really kinda curious about how all this will work out. I don't see why everyone hates Mata Nui being a set... cuz there really could be some kind of clever twist to it (like a new body, everyone is giant, etc...). Or it could really suck, like they decide at the last minute, "No, he's not the universe. He's this guy." Which really would suck. But until then, high hopes. About the spiked zamors: what is most likely is solid spheres with rubber spikes. Which would be lame, but not as lame as some that have come out. *squids* WOOOHOOOO 2009 WOOOHOOOO

Or it could really suck, like they decide at the last minute, "No, he's not the universe. He's this guy." Which really would suck. But until then, high hopes. What if he -was- that guy and the end of this story arc is him becoming a great being and wanting to create an orderly universe with protectors called Toa that would mean no little guys like he used to be would go through the chaos he did. It doesn't turn out that way but he starts with that best intention. -Tohst - just thinkin'
Bundalings Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 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 . Greg said the price will stick. And anyway, these sets really don't have any more parts than the Mistika. More recolors though... Here's my take on the projectiles. Why on earth would LEGO make a spiky, pointy ball the can be launched of HARD PLASTIC? Even I think that's silly. That's a lawsuit waiting to happen! So of course they're gonna be a one-piece, spiky ball.And to Bunda, I think the "separation" you were seeing is all in your head. :P KML No, the voices told me I'm right. =D Yeah, it'll probably hurt some little ones, but tons of other sets have had these spikes in dangerous places. Although none of them were fired from a launcher at high speed... >_> Yeah, those are not preliminary shots or prototypes... So, don't expect ANY changes. They are probably going to stay exactly like they are. I've got the feeling you're right. After all, the sets have to be done for them to make a movie about them. However, these could be preliminary sets, and they're just not showing the final versions. Dunno though. Usually in prelim images some of the sets have foam parts. ~Bunda
Echo Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 I've looked through the last ten-ish pages of this topic, and I can't find any images. Would someone please be kind enough to direct me to them?

And the movies usually deviate from the set designs enough to allow for some modification. I remember the Makuta Phantoka masks being different in the leaked pics. I've looked through the last ten-ish pages of this topic, and I can't find any images. Would someone please be kind enough to direct me to them? Only some are still out there. All of the ones on Brickshelf were deleted. Edited August 22, 2008 by Bfahome
