08 was bad for me and still is in my eyes because of horrible events that happened to me. such things I cannot even begin to vocalize, 08’s flaws just added to the strain and as thus I will NEVER see it as others, perhaps younger, perhaps older fans see it as.
There are may reasons why I hate 08
The builds
The Masks (mostly Kopaka, Tahu, Gali, and Lewa’s (though be it Lewa’s mask looked better than his nuva counterpart, plus it was sort of modeled after the noble one, and the noble mask to me can look like what ever compared to their counterparts))
Not to be rude or anything, but you shouldn’t attribute the flaws of a line based off your own personal events. It might have terrorized you for life, but it shouldn’t make your opinion.
@smugleafthesmug Correct me if I’m wrong, but does Pohatu have a cannon sticking out of his chest? That is strangely awesome.
It seems to be chronicling the Tale of the Bionicle (Slightly, and when I mean slightly, I mean Cereal Box material) as it mentions Kanohi, Kanoka, the '01 Mctoran, The Toa Metru and such. Also,
HAH.
Nothing is really different about those except the launchers
FUN FACT YO
The squid launcher model there was used in the Barraki Bio Animations. You know, the little animation loops that played on their Bio pages.
I loved that piece when I first saw it and was very disappoint to find it was not real ;-;
mmmm…nah.
While i agree that the mistika were truly a pile of garbage, the phantoka were almost hands-down my favourite g1 sets. While the mistika took the armour aspect too far (did the set designers have a silver fetish?) i felt that the phantoka were solid, and the colours blended well, especially for the makuta. keep in mind, i’m not bashing the mistika makuta, only the toa.
