Umarak unites with Ketar, destroys green crystal thing and claims MoCo. Makuta appears and asks for Umarak to give it to him but at the last second Umarak refuses, puts on the mask and becomes the destroyer.

Just saw the screenshots posted, Umarak being able to rise out of the ground with cool shadow powers is neat, skeptical on this whole "different leg design" thing since the image is so vague.

Cool plot twist though, Umarak confirmed for coolest and most complex villain.

Actually, that first character doesn't look like any of the letters, really. Halp.

>>5421096
...is that shadow even at all like the Destroyer leak?
>>
>>5421096
Really hope this means we get some kind of rework of UtD in the final product or the pose is to blame for his mediocre looks. I have a feeling those legs arent the actual set, since I doubt they would change back to greivous' design for a digitigrade leg design so quickly / drastically change from what they were, but all this buildup and stuff looks really cool for what looks like a mediocre villain on the box.
>>
>>5421107
Yeah, you can make out the horns (as well as the face of course in that last panel), plus the claws look kinda similar, the spikes on his back are also present in the leak, but their positioning is wrong. We will probably have to wait until toyfair to know for sure what's up.
>>
>>5421096
>>5421101
Something tells me they didn't have a finalized product at all when they made this and that those ARE in fact just Grievous's feet.

That's literally one of Grievous' feet.
You can see where they partially airbrushed out the middle claw
>>
>>5421110
Also, look closely, the Skelly torso is also present.

It does look like the design may have been reworked slightly, but not much.
>>
>>5421110
Well let's just hope that his godawful appearance is just due to shittily posing the set to make it look more "bestial."
Going off of silhouette alone, it looks pretty solid.
>>
>>5421115
I mean, I am 100% sure its just greivous' foot and not UtD's foot, but the two bones are the same length here while they are different lengths on Greivous

The balljoints are on-level, yes, but that's the case with Grievous' foot as well.
Especiall if all that's being used is what's in pic related, which is likely because why bother dealing with the whole set if all you need is a 3/4 shot of a foot?
>>
>>5421155
I was referring to how I didn't see the hole above the balljoint on the bone in the front. Either way its a weird choice to use Greivous' lower legs for here. It's like they knew they wanted to make legs similar to his, and then decided to backtrack on that and make them shit.

They're easily the worst part about the set.

Would that scene where Ketar is united with Umarak be a slight hint towards Ahkmou? Both are brown and aided the forces of darkness to achieve their goals. Then again I could just see a parallel where there isn't.

One YouTuber made a joke about Ahkmou in his Ketar video because Umarak and Ketar both have gunmetal unity pieces. He called that shit.

So after battling depression for months and doing nothing but sleeping I checked out the local Lego shop for the first time. They had a deal for like $20 you could basically do pick a brick but for a big gallon zip lock bag. Thought I would just get bunch of random Bionicle pieces and build something when I got home, but somewhere along the way I ended up going full autism and just built this guy at the store. He's probably my first real moc, but I was pretty stoked once he was finished. I didn't have access to every color of every part so some is mismatched. What do you guys think?

Hey /biog/, I've been thinking of writing a story based on G1 lore, and I wanted some feedback.

1) What should the setting be? I was thinking of setting it on Bara Magna, several thousand years after the Matoran migrate over. It would show the numerous tribes of Bara Magna clashing with Matoran culture and their ways of living

2) Pic related will most likely be the focus, and if not then he/she will be a character at some point. I was thinking of making them a Glatorian who is linked to Takua somehow since they wear the same mask (Maybe they idolize him after hearing stories about him). Alternatively, they could be a Toa, but I prefer a protagonist who uses their wits and skill to survive as opposed to elemental and mask powers

3) Would any of you like to collaborate? I'm more of an ideas and planning type of guy, and writing isn't exactly my strong suit. [nospoilers] We would probably have to communicate on BZPower or some other website, though, because I don't want to make a new email or post my personal one on 4chan[/nospoilers]

4) Are there any characters from G1 you'd like to see make a reappearance? Keep in mind it'll have to be characters who were still alive (or presumed to be alive) at the end of G1.

AAAHHHHHHHHHHH
>>
>>5421429
Which would explain the poison and trans green... Dammit, why is it always the sand niggers who defect?
>>
Aren't we jumping the gun? Maybe Umarak mind controlled or captured Ketar
>>
>>5421429
So to summarize: Ketar is potentially a stone based small set (like Ahkmou) who is a scorpion-like ex-ally of the Toa that defects to follow a Shadow (Dark) Hunter (like Nidhiki.)

REFERENCES!
>>
>>5421443
Probably. But its more fun to pretend that the story team is trying to incorporate subtle interesting nods to G1.

Also, since UtD probably got his poison and trans neon green from Ketar, do you think this means he has super speed and camo?

I have one simular to that in a "city" near me, and by near I mean more than 2 hour drive.
Also, they have people come in and build sets, so I got chunks of a complete Makuta 03 and part of the takanuva vechicle set from 03 in from their "Building In Progress" bin, which was a steal. I also bought a blind Cahdok and a Gadok with it's stopping function thing missing.

2005 was no doubt a terrible, terrible year with a couple gleaming examples of quality shining through (like Keetongu and the Toa Hagah), but I'd pin 2008 to be the fall of Bionicle G1. The brittle joints, the really half assed nostalgia pandering, the introduction of the fucking av matoran build, ect.

2003 > 2002 > 2007 > 2006 > 2001 > 2004 > 2009 > 2008 > 2005 > 2010
>>
>>5422353
The worst part about '08 was the Phantoka and Mistika were originally going to be their own Toa teams but it was decided that bringing the Mata squad back would boost sales so the Phantoka and Mistika became them retroactively, post-design. This is also why their designs have absolutely no relation to the characters they portray. It's a shame because they're practically a blight on the Mata squad, design wise. I like to pretend they aren't canon.

Oh and I forgot to mention that 08 pretty much started the trend of gappy looking titans, and big specialized chunks of plastic instead of new parts that were actually interesting, and big fuckoff """""vehicles""""" that were basically really complicated and expensive Technic functions that you'd """""fly""""" or roll across the ground to attempt to gleam some kind of fun out of them.

Pretty damn sure that was proven completely false. When asked, I think Greg confirmed the Phantoka/Mistika were always meant to be the Nuva. Also, if you read the books, the Nuva were still present and fully intended to return to the forefront of the story as early as 2006.

I can't tell if you're ranking these years based on story or sets, but either way I have trouble taking your list seriously when you rank 2003 (the year that includes the Bohrok Kal. mind you) at the very height. Might want to wipe the fog from those nostalgia goggles, buddy.

What kind of world would anybody assume Kopaka's a toa of air? I mean, I get it if they were looking at 08 Kopaka, but 02 Kopaka has a weird ski spear thing that tells you immediately that this fucker's ice type, and 01 Kopaka just looks like a white knight with a scope. And the only thing that potentially links Pohatu to Lightning is the Kanohi Kakama making him quick as lightning, which is a pretty laughable and pathetic way to connect a character's ability to their supposed type.

99% of the way it's been presented in the past, "Stone" is physical control of rock and sand.

Pic related is a reimagined Bordakh from my childhood, where we played with my friend in a universe similar to The Legend of Zelda with dungeons and ennemies to battle. My Bordakh was the hero of the play, using King Mathias' cape, the same cape (and head for that matter) used here. The most important thing about this moc is the fact that it needed to look like a creation you could more or less do ten years ago, with the G1 aesthetics.
