so we are lead to believe anyways

Who’s to say that the Spherus Magna system, re-vamped, isn’t a part of the reboot as well?

Basher has a bashing function;

Scorpio meanwhile is incredibly bare bones in terms of his construction

Mods, can I flag this as spam?

Dude, something tells me you weren’t around for the very start of G1, were you?

just noticed

Some masks look like more gold has been drained from them then others
lewas is almost drained, pohatus is has about the same as lewas, onua has the least drained, and kopakas is half drained

at least, thats what it looks like to me

You know other than a lack of specialized names theirs basically no difference between how G2 is starting and how G1 started. The real difference between them is the lack of an Okoto online game.

There are plenty more differences, but I get where your coming from.

I think Lewas has almost no gold because it’s a prototype piece, which is odd considering it was part of the winter wave.

I think lego did it on purpose.

Chro, I became a fan near the end of 02 and only really got into the story in 04, and I’m also arguing that G2 is no less complicated than G1 was.

We are like the turaga we need to tell the tale of what happened before hero factory

@Payinku G1 is not complicated what are you talking about, everything was kanohi and tahunga (matoran) the alphabet turaga and the names of every place person and living thing. Now we have to get masks of power protecters and I will say it again we barely get the names of the toa.

Does anyone here remember Dragon Bolt, from HF Brain Attack? It has a very similar function to Skull Basher to power its wings. Also, I kind of stated his function 16 days ago in the Nuremberg Toy Fair Picture Repository, post 82:

I believe that Skull Basher’s function is that his arms swing around in
front of him to knock his fists together, in order to ‘bash’ opponents
skulls between them…hence his name.

But whatever. The fact is, he has a function, and it’s cool.

Something I noticed when looking at the pieces is that not all of them are as reflective or shiny as I thought they would be. Look at Lewa’s mask and the new armor clip-ons for Skull Basher. They seem very grainy and dull. It could simply be because these are some of the first official models or because the picture was blurry. I hope that’s all it is.

Those mask… Kopaka’s is just2cool.

But seriously, I need those.

As for the ongoing @Toa_Matoro conversation, people, please. Let’s all be friendly here. Different opinions are absolutely fine.

Just built Skull Scorpio and the set itself is growing on me. The tail function is where most the price count comes from and I don’t mind the lack of articulation in the legs as its more something you just pose and use the function with.

@TheEsquire
Kopaka’s comes out the best out of all of them.
Lewa’s and Onua’s you can barely they are transparent and Pohatu’s just looks odd.

Either way i’m not as interested to ‘collect them all’ due to the lack of Gali and Tahu… who I feel are needed in order to have a true collection of ‘energy drained masks’
