BIONICLE 2016 Discussion Topic

Yeah, according to sites they did mention Bionicle so they do seem interested in getting images of it.

27th January to 1st February according to the website, however some sites seem to be getting early access so we may see more set images today. They’ve currently revealed a technic set, an architecture set, a friends rollercoaster and the Lego Volcano theme along with an image showing the summer 2016 Nexo Knight sets in the background (though blurry)

so, tomorrow?

BIONICLE is more shadowed than Umarak.


BlueCel, do you accept or refuse my humor?

Yes, main event runs from tomorrow. Though we do currently have images and are getting more currently. They just revealed a Marvel Spider-man set, a technic helicopter and a caravan

Its a Spider-man set;
7058: Doc Ock’s Tentacle Trap

Can tell due to the tentacle arm.

###Going to make a separate topic for images and things as its going to be hectic here otherwise

How can pictures about 2016 sets be off-topic in a 2016 discussion?

Because this is 2016 Bionicle discussion and those are not Bionicle sets.

Images can be found here;

Yeah, sorry :stuck_out_tongue: I’ll say something more on topic instead!
Here’s what I hope will become apparent in pictures of the summer sets tomorrow (?):

-Whether Ekimu has a gearbox for his arms
-How the Beasts’ heads are put together
-What sort of functions the Beasts have, apart from the waist swivel (quite apparent in the Lava Beast’s case, but maybe QB and SB have something original as well)
-How Umarak TD’s torso is built, and whether his hands have a function of some kind (those gears have got to be there for a reason!)
-How the shadow traps are connected to the Beasts’ tails

The follow up report already de-validated that claim, thankfully.
The description they gave matched with the leak :slight_smile:

Hmmm, I can see what you mean.
I HOPE YOU’RE WRONG >: D

Ekimu’s torso is a mash-up of Tahu’s and Onua’s. He has shell padding like Tahu but arms are connected via glatorian necks.

What I’m hoping to see is the heads getting blended and have some reason why Umarak’s back looks so messy.

Can someone please make a moc up of what ekimu’s torso build in 2016 is going to look like?

nobody knows how it’s going to be built, but @GK733 made an Ekimu mock-up

Let’s wait with that for a while!
The pictures might just reveal everything :wink:

Featuring Tahu’s with swapped shoouldershells as I was lazy.

Trans purple preferably.
