Now that Bionicle has been rebooted, we can expect new games to come out.
What does /v/ want in a Bionicle game?
oh god what the fuck is that
Collectible mask powerups and a full 3D open world to explore
>>340029048
I'd rather build more bionicles irl
i want skylanders but wii u only w/ 2d graphics
How is it that the more the Bionicle toy line advanced, the significantly worse it got? The first two waves of Bionicle were fucking awesome, those disk throwing things before Bionicle were great, but all the Bionicle shit I've seen in stores for the last several years has been pretty lame in comparison.
>>340029285
>Not liking the Mahri
I like the deep sea creature designs.
>>340029285
Lack of simplicity and clear design form. I can barely tell what the fuck is going on with the behemoth in OP's pick because it's such so bulky.
>>340029285
Nostalgia. Bionicle improved with every wave.
man i forgot all about this shit, I had the green guy when they first came out. Bionicle was awesome but it was no Beast Wars.

I thought the purpose of lego blocks was to fuel kids imagination, and have them build new things.
Bionicle figures have like 12 pieces total, and half of them are clearly arms, legs, and masks.
>>340029260
yeah, this
>>340030017
too manish
>>340030073
Newer ones, yeah, but other series can create absolute monsters of characters.
>>340030073
2015-onward Bionicle uses CCBS, a generic action figure framework TLG came up with. The other Lego IPs don't have gearbox mechanisms for moving limbs, though. But yes, original Bionicle did have a lot of prefab parts for limbs which didn't really have articulation at the knees or elbows. It did kinda get worse later on.
The usual MOC is usually something resembling the bigger builds rather than the canister models, and use a fuckton of pieces.
Bohrok were fucking amazing.
But I thought they were replaced by Heroes Squad or some shit
>>340030073
Bionicle are always about sentai like toys
GOAT incoming
I grew up with the original bionicle waves and I gotta say, these look way more baller.
>>340029997
didn't we have this thread yesterday ?
not that I mind
>>340034097

If you want to actually build something then you buy anything that isn't Bionicle since it's even babbier than lego sets.
>>340032107

>>340029285
I think they lost out so much when they started to use more big, bulky, pre-designed pieces for the models.
The earlier ones still felt like you were building something, not just assembling your action figure. And since the larger sets used pices from the smaller sets, it gave it a kind of cobbled-together aesthetic. Like, the original pieces were all the same, but you assmebled it into different monsters, which was cool. I went well with the "mechanical organisms" setting.
>>340029048
This shit here is too specific to one set to give that impression.
>>340033582

>>340030073
True creativity is using pieces in unconventional ways. If you look at a leg piece and think "WELL THAT'S OBVIOUSLY A LEG, CAN'T USE IT ANY WAY OTHER THAN THAT", then you're missing the point.
>>340029048

There actually is a new bionicle, it's not as mysterious as 1st gen, but it has that mystical charm the first couple of years had. This years villian is basically Herne the Hunter, and he turns into a Wendigo just in time for the Summer Wave (pic related btw)

>>340041184
The hate for HF does stem from Bonkle fans getting pissy, but it persisted when CCBS became a thing. The new building system had yet to come into its own, so all the characters looked like lackluster chinese knockoffs of real bonkles.

Build your own action figure. That's what Bionicle is and always has been at its core.
It's such a simple idea yet it single handedly saved Lego from bankruptcy in the early 00s and is the reason Lego is so big today.

They're robots made to mantain Mata Nui, who is himself agiant robot. All this was made by the Great Beings.
>>340044720
The idea for the series actually started from the idea of fighting a virus, thats why the Toa came in 'pills'.

They're built.
Also, Makuta make animals by mixing viruses or some shit in some kinda goop.
>>340044249
Did you ever play with a Bionicle?
They were just like Transformers in the same way that yo-yos were just like bouncing balls.

>2003
>>340044849
I feel like Bionicle would be a decent candidate for one of those cheap Platinum action games that have been coming out recently, but Lego has their own devs, so that may never happen.
>>340045006
They're basically dead Matoran of Light who mutate xenomorph-style into big angry white blood cells
>>340044720
Matoran of light eventually turn into Bohrok and mysteriously disappear if they don't have a role to play in the grand scheme of things.
>>340044720
Makuta is a name of a species
>>340044720
Makuta was originally meant to be a misguided fella corrupted by his mask, until they turned him into a generic villain for the movies.
Kinda like how he's presented in the G2 graphic novels.
>>340044720
'Mata Nui is a giant robot beneath the Island' was part of the lore from the very start.
The Island even resembles a face.
>>340029285
Less and less legos. More and more plastic sculps that attach to legos.

Fuck yeah it was. Makuta was completely rewritten at least twice. The story got extended or shortened at several points. Even some of the Lego catalogues and promotional images were outdated by the time they came out, because the story writers kept changing stuff.

It's pretty much part of Lego's new design policy that they came up with years ago due to the creation of tons of redundant and/or overly specific parts during the "juniorisation" period:
Unless it's outright necessary to create a new part, the designers are told to use pre-existing parts in the most creative ways possible.
So, for example, instead of having every 2016 Toa getting a special weapon mold, they created one generic crystal blade and turned it into staves, broadswords, wings, spikes, combinable scissor swords, etc.
Even Lego's "Big Bang" themes like Nexo Knights are affected by this.
The parts that were created for it are almost all of the kind that can be reused in other themes like the tiny pyramid piece, the shield emblem piece and the windshields or can be used en masse like the knight armors and shields.
We need a remake of Bioncile Heroes.

Yeah but according to Lego, the deepest lore was one of the reasons why G1 eventually failed. And they are right.
But this time, they went too far in the opposite direction, simplifying everything way too much. And the media is just as badly handled as ever.
As convoluted G1 was, one reason why kids couldn't keep up with it was that the lore was spread out over too many forms of media, and a lot of it wasn't even available to everyone. Only a few countries got the books and comics, and you had to go online for further story details. The same is true for G2. The books and comics only come out in a few places and they came out too late, the web animations were shit, the name of the 2015 main villain was only ever revealed in some obscure magazine, and instead of making a widely accessible TV cartoon, they make a Netflix mini series which is again not available in every language.

They stopped being "dudes made out of Lego Technic" and became "stickmen with different-colored armor attached"

i remember getting the red krana seen in the comics with my lehvak, i was so happy

>put Kopaka Nui's sword and shield on Kopaka Nuva (layering the radar shield over the solid one)
>put Kopaka Nuva's blades on as skates
Who else did this?
>>340049189
Mine too, but I hate that I never got all of the Nuva whilst I had the chance.

As a kid I always looked at bionicle shit as poormans action figure.
They just looked cheap and ugly as fuck compared to the other stuff you could get on the shelves.

great set; great set idea

t. faggot who lacks the imagination to do anything but follow the included instructions
>>340049645
My Onua has been hanging there for the past five years and he's still going strong. Not even vibrations or accidental shakes to the bookshelf makes him fall.
>>340049549
Yeah that's one of my regrets. I used to have a red Bohrok and Borhok Kal too but some faggot stole them from me.
Took this for some /b/ thread. I was so proud of this edgy fucker when I built him. I even got some chains on his back, but it appears I lost them.
>>340049796
>cheap
Well, the smaller ones were. That was the point, they even wanted to sell toys like these in vending machines.
>>340029285
>Bionicles have hands now
>more joint movement
Kids today are lucky shits.

>Not going on made up adventures with your bionicles
Sounds like you're the one lacking creativity, friendo.
>>340033413
those are fucking cool. I got them all
>>340049189
I don't know why but it always bothered me that the brown one had an upside down chest piece.
>>340043306
Barraki were the shit.

>tfw your mom threw away all your bionicle shit when you hit 15
I'm fucking 20 now and thinking of buying them again, should I do it?
>>340050550
THICK
>>340050814
Yes
>>340050814
if you can find for cheap yes
>>340049525
>put Kopaka Nuva's blades on as skates
but everyone did that
that's why his blades looked like skates
>that one time they tried to make another online game after the first one's success but they could only come up with an extremely buggy and grindy as fuck game where the plot was basically "sports tournament"
>>340050303
>Bionicle have hand pieces now
>Because of this you miss out on the connector piece that was at the tip of their hands on the old models
It doesn't seem like a lot, but it makes staffs, bows, and any other 2 handed weapon way less natural to just slap into your dudes hands.
If anyone is curious, the reason that new Bionicle and old Bionicle are so different is because old Bionicle was under an entirely different building system called Technic (Mostly consists of pegs going into holes and very often mechanical movement). They moved from Technic to a new building system called CCBS that replaced any sort of Technic action figures. CCBS mostly focuses on ball joint connections like the arms of your bionicle popping into place, arms and legs, heads, and even most of the armor pieces pop on this way.
CCBS is overall pretty casual even for lego standards and can't do much than a normal body with a different coat of paint over it and different weapons in hand. Any modern action figure legos with a fun build are due to the fact that the CCBS build is using technic parts. The only highly CCBS build thats been super fun is General Grievous.
Luckily with each passing series in the new Bionicle line they've gone increasingly technic with it. Hopefully if they go far enough we can get reboot bohrok.

It was worth it just to see so much more of Mata Nui in the MNOG art style though.
>>340047321
Thnx m80
>>340051073
no I meant those two things together
the blades are literally made to be used as skates and appear as skates in a few of the comics

>CCBS is overall pretty casual even for lego standards and can't do much than a normal body with a different coat of paint over it and different weapons in hand
Never checked /toy/'s Bonkle general, I assume? People occasionally do some crazy shit over there.
>>340051090
Original MNOG didn't have much gameplay, art style was a bit inconsistent, no free roaming, and we only got glimpses into the lore. But it told a story, the characters and events were memorable, and it was fun, atmospheric, mysterious and fulfilling as heck. Cutscenes were awesome too.
MNOG II has a more open world, better visuals, a much more involved gameplay, and a nice, comfy world. But it has little to no story, the lore is spelled out in boring, pointless detail, none of the characters are memorable, we get maybe two shitty cutscenes, the grinding system is tedious, you don't even get to play the championship the entire game's been building up to, and it's just pointless in the end.
MNOG II may be more of a game, but the original outclasses it by a huge margin. Wish they could combine the best aspects of both into a single game, though.

Also who remembers when everybody was putting pictures of gay people kissing in their signatures? Bunch of junior SJWs on there and i never realized.
If memory serves correct, one of the only people who openly spoke against the gay signatures was actually lesbian herself, and someone called her homophobic anyways.

WHAT
EXPLAIN
>>340029997
I really wish one of those part lists exists for these models. I'd totally display one next to my other sets
