<3 those fish. They're the kinda thing that would've been seen in '01 concept art.

[Bfahome]

Yeah, I liked him in 2006... a nice change in style from the bleehdhefbhffhasdf that was 2004/5 comics.

~Bunda

I liked it too. Much more sketchy, which helped the creepy factor a lot.

Titan Mata Nui, man. It's a mega-part-pack, way better than Skopio.

ffffffffffffffffffff

[VBBN]

Hydraxon's tale was AMAZING. One of the best Bionicle comics done yet.

[Phantoka Kopaka Nuva]

I don't know about you guys, but I'm digging this titan Mata Nui mod:

EDIT: LOL'ed when I saw this:

Much better color scheme for the most part, but the gold Ignika contrasts so badly with the body.

[Neaku]

Black pistons?

Do want.

[Toa Velox]

Black pistons?

Do want.

Yes, that would be nice.

On the subject of the MOC, it's not bad. It's definitely a lot better than the set. The gold Ignika is fail, though. Personally I'd like all the yellow to be gold, but . . .

[Mesonak]

I decided to just get Ackar, Gelu, Tuma, and F&S.

I'm more pleased then I probably ever would be with Thornatus.

Maybe it's because I had very low expectations of them all, but Tuma and F&S are AWESOME sets.

Ackar is simply breathtaking, and Gelu is awesome.

Should have gotten Cendox I feel.

Yellow, 2 Black Brutaka Blades, Black tracks and sweet custom helmet is nice.

Of course I don't have either of the others, so my argument isn't the most valid. :P

And @Velox, if all the Yellow/Keet pieces of the actual set were gold, I'd buy it, on the spot.

And are the Black Pistons painted? Doesn't seem to be on Peeron.

[-TA-]

[Mesonak]

Meh, I would have gotten Cendox instead of F&S. If they had it in stores. :P

I didn't want to go to the trouble of ordering them online, and I just decided to break and get what they had at the store. I'm glad I did. :P

The pistons are painted, as far as I know. The only colours pistons come in are pearl light grey and orange.

[Phantoka Kopaka Nuva]

Only a few more minutes until the next sneak peek is up. Personally, I'm hoping for something with Gresh in it. Or maybe Tarix and Vastus.

EDIT: It's up! But damn, it's loading so slow...

[~Wrack'n'Ruin~]

eh, wasn't bad. Kiina's grunts were a bit off-putting.

I like the spinning parts, though.

[Refia]

I lol'd at Kiina's discussion with Click. That Scarabax beetle was a great addition to the movie. Nice clip too, Skopio was awesome.

Oh, and by the way, there was a story update too. You can now read about the attack on Tajun in the story section. And now we know too when Gresh joins the team.

[Phantoka Kopaka Nuva]

You know, Rock Steeds don't look that big compared to Bone Hunters in the movie. And I can see Telluris' head on the Skopio. At least, the helmet part.

[Refia]

You know guys, there's even bigger news: we know the name of a Great Being: Angonce. Curious? Just read the new Empire of the Skrall chapter.

[Phantoka Kopaka Nuva]

Wow, serials are up early today. Gonna read it now.

*snort* Bwahahahaha.

Okay, now I KNOW he's pulling letters out of a hat now.

[Refia]

You know Greg can't make up names on his own, he needs to use approved ones from his list.

[ShaddowCroc]

Wow. That was a really cool clip. I definitely saw Telluris' head and part of his body on Skopio.

The talking to a bug thing actually made me laugh, and Kiina's voice doesn't sound bad when it's coming from the actual character's mouth. The dialouge seemed stiff and they exaggerated random words, though. Maybe they just had to do that for because they are on a noisy vehicle, but my expectations for the voice acting just dropped.

Also: Angonce, huh? That doesn't sound like such a bad GB name. It's got a different name scheme than anything else in BIONICLE, and I think it works well . . .

[Brickthing]

Pfft, it sounds like Angus.

I liked the new trailer, but after Skopio rised out of the sand all it did was stomp it's feet repeatedly while Kiina turned like crazy to avoid it, but still managed to almost drive into it three times.

Click is one smart bug, and I get the feeling that his jaw drop might be a running gag.

[Wrinkledlion X]

And we have a new pic of the general Tajun area.

EDIT: Hmmm. Bug-face.

Another raid and it didn't turn out so well unlike Vulcanus...(ended up like Atero, well much worse?) (and speaking of that I have to get the book asap)

"We. Skrall. we did fall, in the hands of the silver armorded Warriors...those things...were just too Strong for us...We. Skrall..We did fall today" - Random Skrall quote from my Core War Entry.

by the way how the drawing on the Cover looks i could tell it was made by Zanier and not by Mhan
