The Bionicle designers later took their revenge by stealing Power Miner wheels and technic panels for their 2009 vehicles
Dunno if anybody has discussed this yet but I know this picture has been posted. I noticed something
That little guy⌠is the prototype for SOLEK.
Why did they change the design?!
Remember the av-matoran use very specialized pieces which would not of been molded when these prototypes were created. The torso construction would of just been a placeholder for the single torso piece.
I know, but this build is so much better than what Lego actually made. Why didnât they just use this anyways instead of that crappy one piece thing.
Also I have an addition that I donât think was posted here yet:
Prototype Epic Dragon Battle box. I think the set itself on the box is also a prototype. Seeing that it comes with two ball shooter things (that in this are different colors?) and some leg/wing construction looks slightly incomplete.
Honestly Iâm quite glad they didnât have them this way; they look way too modern with the smooth, realistic-ish wings on them. Also Solekâs mask is incredibly ugly. And blue doesnât fit with the colorscheme of either. So overall this was bad.
Uh⌠I dont think thats allowed in the boards since its a leak
Dude, itâs been like 5 years since this set was released/this picture was taken. I think itâs fine even if it is a leak. I forgot where I found it though.
A leak would be if the set hasnât already been released and lego hasnât shown any official images, and somebody âleakedâ photos of it to the public. It isnât a leak if itâs been released.
Bionicle leaks are 2 years old and I dont think we cant post them yet,
Somebody posted a bunch of 2015 leaked photos a while back up, they havenât been removed so I think itâs fine.
I think that was to show the different elements in one dragon
I have the set, only Lightning and Ice have thornax launchers in their mouths. One of the balls is red so itâs kind of strange. Plus the set only came with one zamor/ball thing, and it was lime green and kind of translucent in a way.
EDIT: Oh wow, I looked at the picture again and it shows Fire with the thornax launcher in itâs mouth instead of Ice! That explains the red ball, but this is definitely the prototype for the set too.
The Images seem to be gone, Does anyone have any of the photoâs on hand that they could post? I would love to see them!
I think these are them.
Couldnât find a proper picture of Hydraxon, but you can kind of see in him Maxilos and Spinaxâ picture.
Bonus, Toa Terrain Crawler Prototype:
Posing sets horribly at toy fair is an old traditionâŚ
#####No seriously even with the Toa Mata, given how little articulation they have, they still managed to find bad poses.
######How can somebody screw up so badlyâŚ
Itâs a myth for the ages.
Oh thanks!!! That metallic Gadunka is pretty weird
That Toa Terrain Crawler is the exact same set as the real one. The only differences are the colours of the tubes and the âwindshieldâ.
Still could be the prototype, they just didnât change much. But you still could be right.
Yeah, youâre right.
