No, the one that had the entire retrospective of BIONICLE and then had the major spoiler of the nature of Mata Nui that was leaked in April or something.

No idea what one that is. The one I linked to has a retrospective, followed by Mata Nui being a rock god from the sea, then IIIIT'S THE FIIIIIINAL COOOOUNTDOOOOOOWN WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAH!

Yes that's the one, with the cheesy talk and red background for the beginning text. The major spoilers where on the desk before the Mata Nui rock giant thing; one of the images on the desk was a sketch of a giant head with metru nui inside. Also, on the part where the eyes light up on the island of Mata Nui then zooms out, just before it goes black, you can see Mata Nui's arms outstretched below the water.

For those who have Comic 15 here, can anyone scan page 2 for me? The scan on BZP was missing a few parts, and I can't print that.

Also, like the name Agori. Wonder what's it based on?

EDIT: Is anyone going to stay up and watch the 40-sec animation? Lucky me, I won't have to go to school until Tuesday.

The black hordika heads on Tuma aren't the same as the grey ones, I think. Look at how it's tilted, but the axle is straight. I thikn instead of plus-axle holes in it, the black ones have pin holes.

That's a good thought. However, I think that they don't, simply because Tarix's "second wrist" is black, and wouldn't work if it was a pin hole instead of a plus hole. Also, knowing how Lego uses it's cool new pieces in extravagant ways, I think that even Malum is using an extra one, to hold his Thornax launcher.

EDIT: Further, I seem to have evidence supporting your theory, Vertea. There is a mysterious circle between Tuma's mask and his Piraka Foot chest armor. :?

Questions clearing things up about 09.

1) Is that Matoro in the picture?

2) Does the mask of Life play a role next year?

3) Does the Bara Magna world have anything to do with spirits?

Thanks.

1) No, Matoro is dead and he's not coming back into story

2) You'll find out next year3) No

1) That's what I thought, (And Am Relieved he's not), But is that indeed a Toa in the Picture?

2) In the picture, it looks like a Vahki lower leg peice is pictured above the being. Can you confirm or Deny this?

1) There are no Toa in the 2009 setting, they don't even know what a Toa is there

2) Confirm or deny what? That it looks like a BIONICLE piece? That seems pretty obvious.

1) So, the being in the picture would not be the recurring character?

2) Well, I guess so. :P

1) I didn't say that. Just don't assume every character that size is a Toa.

1) I didn't assume that everyone that size was a Toa. I am just asking, is that a Toa, or is it some other character.

It is the returning character from 2001-2008. That's all I can say.

Thank god it's not Matoro. It is the recurring character.

Seeing as we're all pretty sure that Mata Nui is the returning chracter, my theory a couple of pages back is right!

Actually, I figured Tuma's build out and built him using my parts here at home. He has a Metru chest armour piece in front on his neck-joint. Of course, without the proper parts-like that new hordika head and without any reference for his back, it's a tad inaccurate, and the hip support is off, but altogether, it looks pretty spiffy.

Woohoo. Mind posting pics? I'm a little curious.

Oh, Greg. . .

We aren't assuming that it's a Toa because of it's size. . . We are assuing that because it looks EXACTLY LIKE A TOA INIKA! lol.

[hollisbrick]

Wow! I love the two brown ones (mostly the little one) and the small green one looks alright. Probably only get those though. I love the scorpion look Dont really like the rest though, I think this year's is better..

[Zarathos]

Just saw the new CG on Bionicle.com.

THAT WAS EPIC!!!!!!

-Z

[Pencoin]

After 8 years of awsome, fail, and more awsome, that didn't dissappoint, old sounds effects from mmolg and everything. I hope in the next one the MU's eyes go red. The mask of shadows in the stars and Iggy and Mat flying through space.

Iggy and Mat are returning characters.

Hey Dwellers in the darkness 5 is up. ITS GO 2009 INFOS!

Meh, it won't play for me. I can watch flash movies on any other site, but not bionicle.com.

I see the hau, I see the pillars fall, I see the island crack and the head emerge... then it stops.

Is my computer that junky, or is it something in the coding of it?

Seriously, I can go on Newgrounds.com all day and never have a video crap out even once.

It's like the BZ thing, where every other site on the internet works but that one.

[Pencoin]

Aww that sucks, it is only Mata-Nui rising though (In a epic way). Go read Dwellers in the Darkness and come back and see if its fixed.

[~Wrack'n'Ruin~]

Well...that wasn't that amazing.

Nice, but not the best ever.

More anxious for the epilogue.

[JINZONINGEN73]

Well wait, is the head breaking the continent apart where it's supposed to stop?

I get a quick jump cut to the sky, looking like there's supposed to be more there, like him standing up.

[Pencoin]

I wonder if this is what we can expect from the film?

Ya he stands up!

Hey, there are 1 more story update but two more videos?

Edited November 3, 2008 by Pencoin

[---Vertea---]

Wow. Mata Nui is awesome!

But I wonder how Bomonga is able to read Glatorian unless... He said 'root language', right? I think Bara Magna may be part of Mata Nui's history.

[JINZONINGEN73]

Poopy. No matter how many times I reload it, it stops at different points.

That's why I hate streaming flash. Yeah, it makes it harder for a consumer to yoink a company's video off the net, but it also makes it unplayable at times too for who knows how many thousands of people...

[Pencoin]

Try putting your cache to full? If you understand that?

I wonder if Bara Magna is where Mata-Nui was created.

[JINZONINGEN73]

Set cache to full, cleared cache, turned off all other windows and torrent downloads... I got up to his leg. Which I already got up to once without doing all that.

I'll wait until someone rips it.

[Pencoin]

Nvm mate, I'm sure the downloadable version will come soon.

Anyone think the last picture could be Bara Magna?

[Tyranide]

Thank god it's not Matoro. It is the recurring character.

Seeing as we're all pretty sure that Mata Nui is the returning chracter, my theory a couple of pages back is right!

I'm disappointed((

The last hope is that it's no MN's real set form.

I guess this fraggin' site just need to much time to upload the video in your cache. You can either just press "pause" and wait several minutes for it to upload, or just go to YouTube and watch it there. YT is not so stupidly done as Bio.com's flash video player.

Anyone think the last picture could be Bara Magna?

Pretty sure it is. Maybe the last video will go farther that book and comic and will show Ignika arrival on Bara Magna.

New DiD are nice. I hoped to see promised Glatorian bodies, but text about Bara Magna is also cool.

Also, here's your downloadable version of Mata Nui Rising video - http://cache.lego.com/upload/contentTempla...99076402C10.flv

Anyone noticed he was smiling at the end of the video?
