Clonie Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 I can live without Malum, but Stronius better be in it.
Phantoka Kopaka Nuva Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 I can live without Malum, but Stronius better be in it. Even if he does, he probably won't have any speaking roles.
Clonie Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 Wouldn't he be one of the main characters? The Legends are supposed to be the stars.
Phantoka Kopaka Nuva Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 (edited) Wouldn't he be one of the main characters? The Legends are supposed to be the stars. Not really. The movie is supposed to star a small group of characters (Mata Nui, Gresh, Kiina, Raanu, Berix, Metus, Tuma), and like Greg said, it's impossible to give every character screen time. So some characters only have small roles (Strakk, Vastus and Tarix), while others like Gelu, Stronius and Malum have no speaking roles, and may not appear at all. Not even all the vehicles and their riders can fit into the movie. BTW, if someone has Mata Nui and Toa Ignika, can I have a comparison pic of the '08 Ignika and the '09 Ignika? Also, some cool Mata Nui pics would be nice. Edited May 31, 2009 by Phantoka Kopaka Nuva
Refia Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 I thought it was confirmed that Gelu and Stronius would not appear, and even if they did, they'd certainly have no speaking roles. I thought I saw Raanu in those productions pics though. I doubt Tarduk and Zesk will appear, too. I feel sad. Zesk hasn't appeared anywhere yet aside from the MLNG. =(

It's the Hydruka case all over again.
---Vertea--- Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 I know. It's the Hydruka case all over again. yeah... pity all of the summer's best sets won't make appearances.
---Vertea--- Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=385574 More Stronius pics
Satellite Jack Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 He's got a Thornax in his stomach! Anyone get Gelu yet? He's the stuff!
Shakar Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 Wow, these sets look absolutely great. I'm definitely getting Ackar and Mata Nui out of sheer awesomeness, same for Gelu (tough I'm eagerly awaiting for some pics, like Satellite Jack). I'm thinking of incorporating Stronius's parts in a MOC of mine (gotta love that reptilian helmet) but I also like him set wise, so I'll probably have to buy two copies of him. I'm still a bit unsure about Vastus and Kiina, although I must say they have far exceed my expectations about them. Overall, a lovely bunch of guys (and one gal ). Shakar
Satellite Jack Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 I have the sudden urge to buy Skrall, Stronius and Tuma. Maybe because of the whole army thing they got going? I don't really like the sets themselves, but they're new pieces seem really cool. Not Atakus though... forget him.
Tyranide Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 (edited) I guess I just needed some inspiration to begin drawing anything Bionicle. Anybody has any funny ideas? But please, not as sick as Antrozek's! Edited May 31, 2009 by Tyranide
Brickthing Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 GS has happy eyes. Intended? It's interesting that the sets are out so early, and it seems official. Maybe in preparation for the movie?
Toa Rodimus Ignika Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 Any sighted in TN yet? BTW, something tells me the GBs aren't very pleased...
---Vertea--- Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 No luck in Arizona, yet. Also: Figured I'd give you guys some progress on that Stronius I promised you all.
Toa Rodimus Ignika Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 No luck in Arizona, yet.Also: Figured I'd give you guys some progress on that Stronius I promised you all. Vertea Superior, Rodimus Inferior.
Antrozek Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 No luck in Arizona, yet.Also: Figured I'd give you guys some progress on that Stronius I promised you all. Vertea Superior Antrozek inferior D:

Bundalings Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 You just have different styles. Vertea draws more set-like. Nifty random Glatorian mask. Kinda reminds me of Tarix's... ~Bunda
VBBN Posted June 1, 2009 Author Posted June 1, 2009 There is only *1* slight thing I see that looks a bit odd. You drew his one hand set like so it has the + rod hole int he middle in a fist, but his other hand open without it, making it look a bit disproportionate... Othe than that it looks supa!

Maybe they're a roll of Skrall quarters to give more weight to his punch. Edited June 1, 2009 by hewkii9
Bfahome Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 Nifty random Glatorian mask. Kinda reminds me of Tarix's... Woot Tarix is getting pawnched :D
---Vertea--- Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 Maybe they're a roll of Skrall quarters to give more weight to his punch. I LOL'd... they've got an image of Tuma with a powder wig on one side, and a sand bat on the other! Woot Tarix is getting pawnched :D Actually, I was just making a sort of "Genericus" character that had no identity. But It COULD be Tarix in the final cut, if everyone likes! I just got him, so I have plenty of drawing ref. Unfortunately, the Legends aren't here while that TRU sale is on, so I had to make do with Tarix and Gresh.

Shakar When she's posed right, Kiina looks pretty killer, and I mean, you can tell they at least tried for the feminine look. I mean, you gotta give these guys credit where its due. She's not a man, not at all like what they've given us in the past. This is a bright new future for female sets I think.
