Great beings were ayylmaos all along, lot's of shit is explained and residents of Matoran Universe and Bara Magna settle their differences and live together in peace. The G1 story ends and Greg doesn't do stupid fanfics that are canonized and most loose ends get closed.
Also, Vezon fucks ups with Olmak even further and is thrown into limbo and never heard of again.

Just do a simple "Matoran and Agori try to live together" coupled with "Old villains band together under TSO/another big bad". All while building towards a final confrontation with the Great Beings, because I'm pretty sure they were supposed to be the final villains had Bionicle continued.

You call G2 a failure, but it sure wasn't because of his own demerits. We don't actually know if it was a failure AT ALL, but rather we have many hints pointing towards a decision taken by LEGO because of a long list of reasons that don't involve any of G2's weaknesses.

I hate LEGO because of how bad they handled the enormous potential of G2, but G2 itself was amazing thanks to its sets and a nice (albeit way too simple) story, who left room for a lot of headcanons.
>>
>>6398994
It failed to make Bionicle relevant again and if they cut it short after promising a solid 3 year run when they first started the line clearly something wasn't right for them.

I think it was poor marketing. They relied too heavily on G1 fans to promote G2, but a lot of G1 fans either grew away from bionicle or were really skeptical about the reboot.

I'm going to be talking about the first wave of sets here.

Plus, the story wasn't as mystical, or immediate to get into. Where before you had G1 with MNOG and the comic series, which were just oozing with lore and detail. G2 had the web animations, and a mobile game, both of which lacked the depth and intrigue for anyone to really get invested in.

But a bigger culprit could be collectables, and villains.
For the first wave of G1 you had the masks to collect, just like your favorite Toa! But what's this? That box had a green mask in it.
>may as well go get Lewa too.
And that's how most collections grew.
Compare that to G2 where you just have it. No extra hunt, no anticipation of opening more kanohi boxes, no desire to get one that's not your favorite.

As for villains, G1 had variety, with the Rahi and all sorts of light technic builds.
And G2 had a single villain set, and repetitive skull spider builds everywhere.
>>
>>6399541
Having the golden masks out of the box was a ton better than having to fondle bags until you find one you need and then you only get silver ones.
>>
>>6399551
Still assloads of profit for Lego, enough to warrant keeping it for 9 years. G2 didn't even have anything to chase after.
>>
>browse, local eBay, see this pic
>buy it now 10€
>click it right away
>that price is for one set and once you've bought, you have to tell the guy which one you want

Got my hopes up for nothing. There wasn't even anything else interesting. Some sets of later g1, but the prices, while still slightly below msrp, were bit too steep for me.
>>
>>6399556
The mask packs weren't a thing after 2002, and the collectible packs after that did not sell nowhere near as well. Lego discontinued them for a reason. I have no idea what that reason is, but they did it regardless
>>
>>6399565
Again, it's just wave 1 that I'm comparing, but the collectables got worse and worse over time, from the krata, to Kraana, to discs, to spinners, to balls to squids, to balls again. Each year had something else to complement the sets.
>>

Muxels as small ball joint failed,the same for Nexo.
Only Ninjago and system sets sell. Time to move to general and forget Bionicle forever.

Anyone got annoyed how in the latter half of Bionicle most characters were nerfed and/or not quite being themselves and/or mutated in some way?

>Toa Hordika: they're like the Toa you know...but they can't wear masks or use their elemental powers properly
>Toa Inika: it's Jaller and co as Toa! Except they don't have a real headpiece, their masks are made of rubber and look weird, and they can't use their element without it combined with lightning
>Toa Mahri: Jaller and co got upgraded! The sets can wear normal masks now. But they can't breath outside water. Also they lost their lightning powers.
>Barraki: they used to be powerful and beautiful, but now they're just some old bitter Street Sharks!
>Makuta: finally, the Brotherhood of Makuta sets you were waiting for! Except half of them are blind and the other half can't shapeshift anymore :^) Oh and, 3 of them don't even wear real mask as sets.

Seriously, it's like Lego went out of their way to make the characters as miserable and uncool as possible, for no reason at all. I can't help but think this hurt the sales in some way.
>>
>>6404713
Fuck typed this too fast, just noticed it has a whole lot of typos. My apologies.
>>
>>6404713
I don't think the story being confusing/crappy is what hurt sales. I'd say it was having too much story, as blasphemous as that sounds. Most toys are bought by parents and grandparents for kids, so when little jimmy asks for "Toa Matoro Mahri" it just kinda filters into older folks' heads as jargon. I do agree that a lot of characters were given sub-par stories, but most kids didn't get that deep into the lore anyways, so I don't think that was a big deal for sales.

To be honest the whole thing about "these sets aren't what the characters really look like, they have been mutated/transformed/rebuilt" was one of my pet peeves with the line. And it went all the way back to '01 with the diminished Tohunga, even if we didn't know at the time.
It's like, hey want a set of Karzahni? Okay, here's him when he turned into a bug, now have fun. Oh and this other character you like so much? This is just his Tuesday body, he had like five other forms but we won't release them.
The rapid succession of set lines did necessitate this method, though, and in the case of the Makuta, they basically had to be nerfed to make it seem like the Toa stood a chance against them.

Seeing a giant Bionicle display and getting my picture taken with Tahu Nuva at Legoland always stick out in my mind as 2 of my best childhood memories.
>>
>>6404757
in that case it's not just a problem with set production but with storytelling as well
>>
I hate the idea of Bionicle bricks but man..those Brickonicle concept art are fucking awesome! Anyway,why do you guys think G2 was cancelled?
I think the reasons are: Ninjago.
>>
>>6404757
>>6405322

You're right, I did forget the Matoran in general and Karzahni. I think it was both a set and story problem. On one hand, designers got overboard with weird shit, which might or not be Lego's fault (the Rahaga reek of "let's cut costs and reuse molds), though some of them are pretty hard to justify, like the Mistika Makuta' Masks or anything in the Karzahni set.
On the other end is the story team, who was tasked to find a justification for any question or oddity the increasingly weird sets brought. But they can't be excused either since they abused the "Character got mutated by (insert magic substance)" explanation when they could've just as well come up with something different.

As they say, poor communication kills. Greg did say he found out about some things about the sets late and had to go back and retcon or change stuff, like Mutran's mask. Maybe if the set team / story team communication was a bit better these sorts of incidents would've been decreased a bit.

Not even kidding:
because of everything

- the poor world building and lore
- the stupidity of the design and marketing team that did shit like wasting their budget on solid gold mask competitions aimed at BZP and Eurobricks instead of you know, actual ads, commercials and competitions aimed at children
- the poorly drawn comics
- the error-filled websites
- the shit-tastic Netflix series
- Ninjago
- Nexo Knights
- Star Wars
- Batman
- Gewunners
- nostalgia-fags
- the suits on top
- you
- me
- children
- ISIS

I really like Technic, love how the modern sets feel so complete, with the new panels providing a lot of coverage that make the sets feel like the real things. Back in the day the panels had a lot of gaps and the sets felt very "skeletal"-like with their interiors exposed. It had its charm, but they didn't really look like "real" stuff that it was advertised to be like.

However, it kinda sucks that it's only vehicles based on real world machines. Back in early 2000s and late 90s Lego was doing some crazy things with Technic, like pic related - battle cars, dueling human-piloted machines... It sucks Lego doesn't try something like this anymore.

Dark blue in general isn't all that common in constraction.

I mean, despite being used in every wave since 2004 during G1, there's still only like 10 masks, and out of those only four are solid dark blue. One being rare as shit, one being Glatorian mask and then there's the monstrosity that's Gali Mistika mask. Only good looking dark blue mask is Hahli Mahri's, which is probably one of the better looking masks in general.

>here's still only like 10 masks, and out of those only four are solid dark blue. One being rare as shit, one being Glatorian mask and then there's the monstrosity that's Gali Mistika mask.

Let me think:

1) Nokama Hordika's mask/head (if you count it)
2) Hahli Inika's mask (again, if you count it)
3) Hahli Mahri's mask
4) Idris's recolored mask
5) Gali Mistika's thing
6) Tarix's helmet
5) Dark blue Skull Spider

Is the rare one Idris's mask? Or are you referring to that prototype dark blue Miru? I do agree on Hahli Mahri's Faxon though. That mask and Jaller's Arthron are some of my favorites in the entire G1.

Seriously so happy about this.

Here are the shields. Left has the stress marks, right has the scratch. Barely noticeable imo, so I'm really stoked about it. Since these things aren't and but that softer plastic that Lego used for stuff like the Metru masks, they could have easily been ruined. And a nice little bonus is that Xa was my favorite Krana design, and lucky me, I had a Gahlok one lying around from a mask lot I got a while ago.

Been away for a few months. Any rumors for constraction-related for winter 2017/2018?
>>
>>6408363
No. Lego is pretty much done with Constraction if you ask me judging by how badly G2G and from the looks of it on here Ultrabuilds are doing. They just screwed the pooch with making the standard set at least 20 bucks. Nobody is going to want to shovel out 40+ dollars so their kid has two characters to pit against each other. Face it. Unless they downsize CCBS sets to Protector level or they use the Mixel system, Constraction is just way less profitable in comparison to system based sets.

And they worked so well, right? Point still stands that if you wanted one of the Toa and a villain set, or even just two To, it cost a lot for just two figures. This is worse in the case of SW, both for the price hike and the lack of a little villain in the same set.

And how is it any different than parent having to buy their kid $40 Nexo set and STILL don't have anything substantial for bad guys?
>>
>>6408639
The bad guys are at least the same size as the heroes and can easily steal their vehicle. C'mon now. Tahu and a lone Skull Spider for 20 or two 7.99 starter nexo sets, one from the good guys and one from the bad guys? That's way more affordable and you get at least 3 if not 4 Minifigures. Face it, as much as you and I love Constraction it just isn't as cost effective for what you get. I personally blame the constant creep of the standard figures getting larger and larger. The Toa Mata are the size of the Protectors and the Masters are essentially lesser Titans. I reiterate that if they were scaled down or used the Mixel system, they'd probably sell better.
>>
>>6408396
>Nobody is going to want to shovel out 40+ dollars so their kid has two characters to pit against each other.

Jaller Mahri really is one of the finer Toa sets.
From the tasteful color scheme (yellow on dark red would've looked awkward, I think), the awesome sword, the 2-in-a-box idea, the mask design matching the chest armor and of course the based Arthron, one of the best masks since 2001 along Hahli's Faxon.

Other than "cuz that's what designers had come up with with Lego's approval"? Doubt it. Jaller even dumped the crab when he and the others left Mahri Nui. Methinks Greg wasn't really interested in that crab and had to write it in because the set was like that.

In other words, Greg was just "fuck it imma write whatever"

Speaking of Mahri Nui, I still don't quite understand the geography. Voya Nui and Mahri Nui were on Aqua Magna, right? Then Pit was inside the Mata Nui, but most of the action of 2007 took place at the top of Mata Nui's chest? Then the waterfall was falling through the chest, northern continent and then all the way to Karda Nui?

Yup.

More or less. Mahri Nui broke off Voya Nui's landmass, landed on the part of Mata Nui that was the Pit (which was already damaged in the Great Cataclysm), and fucked shit up even more than it already was. The events continued to happen around that general area.

Yes, just ignore that it didn't get completely flooded under 1000 years.

It's been painfully obvious since day one of its introduction. The system is so ridiculously juniorized that even Lego resorted to integrating technic shit for any sort of differentiation among sets, and they STILL looked like crap. Properly utilizing this system in conjunction with regular Lego System stuff would cost too much and result in dainty builds, which is why they never did it

>Using the Beasts of all sets as example of CCBS usage

Tip top kek, at least use a Toa. You call CCBS juniorized, I call it minimal. The greebling in G1 got ridiculous with all the different textures and having the freedom to leave a piece of armor blank if I wish to do so is frankly liberating. Besides, you're not supposed to build a Bionicle figure leaving all shells naked. There's a reason pic related and other add-ons were made. CCBS shells are just the base armoring.
Anyway, no one said you should build a purely CCBS model. CCBS works mighty well when integrated with Technic, and I agree that seeing more System fused into it would be great, but as you said it is unlikely

Fine.

That first armor add on was good, but I felt everything after that was crap that didn't match or flow well at all. Every single one had a completely different aesthetic and looked like it belonged to a different line.

I think the add-ons were fine by themselves, problem is that they weren't used well. Tahu Uniter whom you posted is the biggest offender of them all, you should use 2 types of add-ons (3 at the very most if they're similar to eachother) and he uses 3 plus the unification pieces as thigh armor.
Pohatu Uniter, who uses only 2 textures (Vorox shells and crystal add-ons), looks a lot cleaner. You can use any Master as example too since all they have is the piston add-on and special stuff like Onua's shoulder armor.
>>
>>6410444
I don't know man, I still don't care for it. Everything beyond the first wave, save for Hunter Umarak, just looked like piles of parts thrown together haphazardly. They needed a more unified aesthetic (pun intended). They instead developed new looking add-ons, old looking add-ons, and weird shit in-between (those torsos, ugh).

I don't disagree (especially given the huge amount of modifications I gave to my sets, but I did the same with G1, so), but I'm fairly sure the shit budget they had to work with was a bigger factor than you might think. Take a look at the concept art and you'll see how much cohesive the characters look. They even had planned some neat pieces like a metal-like shell for Umarak. But it seems Lego went all "Nu-uh" with a lot of good ideas they had.
Frankly I'm impressed they still managed to make sets like Umarak or Master Kopaka or Onua.

Yeah. I mean they're not even zombies in the end if the books are any indication, their race just happens to look like that. Sadly the sets look puny compared to those guys. Again, pretty sure it's budget to blame. You paid them as much as the Toa but they obviously packed much less. It's like that new smaller Toblerone.

Damn I didn't even read any of the books. I think I started my own headcanon as soon as I saw that awful animation they were making and stuck with it.

Budget was clearly pitiful, I'm sure they expected shit to sell based on nostalgia and brand alone, so why bother doing interesting, new shit.

If a G1 Bionicle series was being aired on [as], which comic should it start from?
>>
>>6410856
The first one. Duh.
>>
>>6410684
I didn't read them, but I don't think they mention anything about the Skull guys being undead. They simply come across as a race of assholes, kinda like Bionicle's orcs. On the other hand, Lego Magazine hints they're undeads controlled by Kulta, but that doesn't make sense because who brought Kulta back to life then? Makuta? But in the books Kulta and the others were already alive when they invaded Okoto and met Makuta.
I see that BS01 threw their hands up in the air and tried to mix the two explanations the best way they could, but reading the page just feels more confusing.
This type of shit happened in G1 and HF too, but at least with G1 there was some authority that declared that "nope, Lego Magazine just made that up, not canon".

This is one of the pretty good Pohatu revamps. If you want other pics I have a bunch I have saved across the web, but if I had a suggestion I'd say you should try searching for "Bionicle 2016 revamps" or "Bionicle Uniter revamps". Most MOCs with the Uniter torso are revamps of the Toa themselves so you'll find plenty of different builds.
And, hint hint, I haven't tried it yet myself but it appears the Inika torso works perfectly with the Uniter torso, it's uncanny.
>>
>>6411458
I read all three of the books and it is explicitely said in the third one that Kulta and Skull Basher are members of a different species inhabitating another island, and many of them were banished in Okoto's underground when they tried (and failed) to invade the island. So yeah, they're not undead and I'm 100% fine with it - it makes them more interesting, weird and BIONICLE-like.

That's my "test" Titan, I first built him back when I got the skirmix set, I improved him so much over the years that the only piece left of my original set is the skull. I had a "dark age" (dunno if you call it like this too) during some time, but as I'm a compulsive buyer nothing could stop me from getting some kgs of loose pieces and continue building my nightmarish mocs.
Btw he has a reaper/hammer, a crossbow shield and a cloak, I should put them on to see what's up with his new enhancements.
And inb4 someone ask for another like this: I have three other not-even-WIP somewhere, one will definitely appear around here someday.
I also helped a friend to build two other, they're a bit weird but I could take some pics.

Not really, no. Star Wars might stick around for a little while, but it's floundering. Sets from over a year ago are still sitting on shelves. It's probably got one or two waves left in it. Bionicle flopped so hard they didn't even carry it through the 3 year plan. It would be financially irresponsible for a company to pursue something that doesn't sell. I think Enlighten is releasing some kind of bootleg bionicle/ccbs line next year, and there's the Mega Construx Pokemon stuff, but I doubt we'll be seeing any new buildable action figures besides next year.

Damn, the blade thing is very cool, looks straight out of BIONICLE. Even the shoulder pads are cool, I guess I'm gonna bricklink those pieces, they look perfect for bonk mocs.

>Constraction will now be a bunch of edgelords sets with shitty overused colors.

>>6416806
God they look even worse than previous ones, who the fuck design those?
>>
>>6416812
You're forgetting the add-on, anon.
THE ADD-ON
AND IT'S GLORIOUS

THIS COULD HAVE BEEN IN BIONICLE
FUCK LEGO
>>
>>6416783
That shoulder piece is nice
>>
>>6416806
That face print on Chewbacca is bad...
>>
>>6416804
Why does that head remind me of Christopher Lambert.
>>
>>6416830
I was so excited that I forgot that and did a Freudian slip in the process. Yes, those are glorious and I think I already know how to use them. I hope we get them in more colors someday. Also

>>6416804
This overpriced piece of shit has 4M dark brown shells. Nice to see more shells in that color since 3M shells aren't very useful for modern larger CCBS figures.

i really like these. redoib looks like hes straight out of bionicle and the tie pilot seems like the best trooper yet. i still want a new ccbs ip though fuck you lego
>>
>>6416872
>the best trooper yet

It's almost exactly the same fucking thing for the fourth or so time, only with some Technic shit in front of it.
>>
>>6416802
At least I can increase my Imperial Army
>>
>>6416882
true but i really like the helmet and shoulder prints
>>
>>6416806
whait, so this is the 34€ fucker? man it's shit
only relevant pieces are the brown feet
>>
>>6416993
Reddish brown 5M shells too. Those are new.
>>
>>6417003
not sure it's reddish brown, it looks lighter than on rey
>>
>>6417064
Rey's brown is dark brown. Reddish brown is Ketar's feet, Finn's hands, etc. It's too light to be dark brown (which is almost black) and too dark to be Pohatu's dark orange.
