The Dor Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 ... huh, point. But there were still five years between. This is waaaay too soon. XD-Ikk Those weren't consecutive years. Stores had to distinguish between consecutive years in the merchandise so Lego had to have new names...Ikki brings up a really good point. :o HAY I pointed it out fiiiirst ;-; Myth busted I suppose, but names of prototypes are never set in stone.I still want a Battle Royale from all previous 9 years. ;_; [-TA-] Well this is still technically possible. And upon rethinking, this could be fantastic :D I don't think that list is real. I mean, would LEGO be crazy enough to re-release only ONE Toa Nuva, and forget the other 5?Still, maybe LEGO wants to do a special 10-year anniversary for BIONICLE, which involves re-releasing some of the best characters in BIONICLE. Of course, I don't see how Gresh and Skrall would fit that category, since they've only been around for barely a year. I'm hoping to god this is a 10 year anniversary special type thing. even though it isn't the tenth anniversary. But also MN goin to the MU wouldn't be bad. except the Ignika would kill everything right then and there And what's wrong with change like that?Geez, it sounds like Summer '08 when all of BZP, [and many of EB] was all buzzing with horror. "OMG THAT'S NOT TAHU! WTF IS GALI... etc." If they are rereleased, I assure you, they will have different bodies/builds/pieces. [-TA-] YES YES YES :D I actually liked that they changed the Nuva. Rahkshi and Piraka in revamped hopefully kickass forms? I SEE NO PROBLEM
Nuju Metru Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 I doubt these are real, to be honest. :/ -Nuju Metru

Brickthing Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 I'm hoping to god this is a 10 year anniversary special type thing. even though it isn't the tenth anniversary. But also MN goin to the MU wouldn't be bad. except the Ignika would kill everything right then and there That's a good point, and probably why Mata Nui isn't in the set lists. Maybe he sends Glatorian to go get some Iden Toa because he knows he can't enter the MU in his current Ignika body without killing everybody. It's a bit of a grim plot device though for a kid's story. I'm pretty sure that next year will be the 10th anniversary for BIONICLE, because it is it's tenth year. The 10th anniversary for Star Wars LEGO is just weird and really drawn out. @ the Brickshelf folder - we could, but the person's put MEGABLOKS cars in the Cars section.
Omicron Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 Well we should watch this brickshelf account to be sureBrickshelf folder I said don't trust any images until we see some decent ones. And I do recall Tilius uploading a fake pic and passing it off as real set once. -Omi
Kiotu Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 (edited) Nah, Bionicle started in '01. No, I know, Zip. But if I get married today, it's not my anniversary today, it's my one year anniversary in one year from now. So the first anniversary of Bionicle is in winter (summer for North Hemisphere-ers), 2002. Therefore, the 10th anniversary is in 2011. @Bunda: Wow, I could've sworn there was a Bohrok on the list... Other members are saying Bohrok as well, it's kind of odd. -K Edited August 12, 2009 by Kiotu

The Alchemyst Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 (edited) Sorry Dor, didn't notice. D: On second thought, It has an oval overlay that says Confidential. The usual was a box though, and I can't make out dates and "The Lego Group". And, if the Atlantis Pic is a fake [probably meaning the list is as well?], it's a very well done Photoshop job. And this would be the 9th Anniversary then, huh. Maybe just 10 YEARS OF BIONICLE [basically 9th anniversary. >.>] kinda thing. Or just having something that sounds like a fanfic.

Bundalings Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 Now that a picture is leaked I can confirm 100% that these are real. I have seen most of the preliminary shots of the sets here at the LEGO Store. All I will say right now is hold your judgements until you see some of the figures, they are awesome.MLB From the Atlantis thread. So... that means this list is -probably- accurate. Whatever that means, and how they can fit these characters into a cohesive plot, I have not a clue. I guess we'll see late this year. ~Bunda
Phantoka Kopaka Nuva Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 From the Atlantis thread.So... that means this list is -probably- accurate. Whatever that means, and how they can fit these characters into a cohesive plot, I have not a clue. I guess we'll see late this year. ~Bunda If it is, then I so hope Takanuva will be canister-sized. I was hoping to get the 2008 version, but 2 reasons made me change my mind: 2008 pieces break like nuts, and he was like $50. Also, Greg did say there was a story plot change for 2010. Maybe they had to push the BM-MU crossover story up early, and do something else for 2011 (which probably is the 10th anniversary).
Zip Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 From the Atlantis thread.So... that means this list is -probably- accurate. Whatever that means, and how they can fit these characters into a cohesive plot, I have not a clue. I guess we'll see late this year. ~Bunda I'm hoping he just means only Atlantis, and not Bionicle.
The Alchemyst Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 Woo. Thanks, Bunda. I'm hoping he just means only Atlantis, and not Bionicle. We haven't seen the pics at all, or even the final names [for sure], if the list is real. Hopefully, that quote from Bunda is not a lie, and holds for Bionicle. -Still hopes for large Battle Royale-
Strakk Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 (edited) There's a new Bionicle folder in that Brickshelf account. Let's hope it has some images when public. :) Of course they could be fakes but let's see. Edited August 12, 2009 by Strakk

---Vertea--- Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 isn't it already public? It just has a texxt file containing the names we already have...
doctordark Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 Did anyone notice the list in the brickshelf folder Bionicle 7116 - Bionicle Tahu 7117 - Bionicle Gresh 7118 - Bionicle Pohatu 7119 - Bionicle Nokama 7120 - Bionicle Bomonga 7121 - Bionicle Exo 7135 - Bionicle Takanuva 7136 - Bionicle Skrall 7137 - Bionicle Piraka 7138 - Bionicle Rakhshi

I just think it would be a good idea to not take any of this seriously until pictures are seen. Just because the Atlantis sets names are real, doesn't make that the case here.

Bfahome Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 One thing though, why would Nokama be a canister set? i no rite?
S-N Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 i no rite? Unless Nokama magically turns into a Toa again, then idunnolol.
Antroz147 Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 isn't it already public? It just has a texxt file containing the names we already have... There's a folder now and it isn't public yet.
Bfahome Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 There's a folder now and it isn't public yet. It was public before. So something either got added, deleted, or changed.
Zarkan Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 Did anyone notice the list in the brickshelf folderBionicle 7116 - Bionicle Tahu 7117 - Bionicle Gresh 7118 - Bionicle Pohatu 7119 - Bionicle Nokama 7120 - Bionicle Bomonga 7121 - Bionicle Exo 7135 - Bionicle Takanuva 7136 - Bionicle Skrall 7137 - Bionicle Piraka 7138 - Bionicle Rakhshi Wha...? This just keeps getting weirder and weirder. Now we have Pohatu, Bomonga, and Nokama? How is a kit of her supposed to fit in with either of the two story possibilities? And what is Exo? An Exo Toa... as a canister set? No, that would ruin the whole point of having a new version, as it would never be able to fit a current size Toa in itself. Man, 2010 is either going to be awesome or the biggest mess we've ever seen in Bionicle.
S-N Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 There's a folder now and it isn't public yet. Could someone link me to this folder?
Bfahome Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 Could someone link me to this folder? I think it's the same one as before, so it's the folder in this folder.
