BIONICLE 2016 Discussion Topic

I have a question for you guys:
How do you imagine (from a “visual” standpoint) Umarak’s creation back when Okoto was forming? How would you describe it?
(if you want to add a potential “theme” you can of course).

In the beginning, there was light and shadow.

In order to bring stability in the universe, the light had split itself into 6 elements, but the shadows refused to do the same forever vowing to engulf the lights children.

The embodiment of shadow was know as U´mrak, the hunter. (later known as Umarak). His eternal mission was to hunt down and engulf the lights children (later known as the elemental creatures).

Umarak symbolises death and its terrible beauty in the Okotan culture, the inescapable void to which all life goes to in the end. As such, many mythological stories have risen around this fabled being. But little do the Okotans realise is that this fable is very much real…

…and this hunter wont stop until he captures his prey.

“And now, the curtain rises.”

this morning
available in 30 days

now

it says that they are available, another weird thing:

the summer 2015 sets are classified as new but winter 2016 aren’t

Going to check my Walmart for them today, let’s hope:

  1. They have them
  2. My mother will let me buy them with my hard-earned money I worked for.

Not really your money if you need to ask your mom to use it. :stuck_out_tongue:

I mean, it is technically, because I earned it by weedeating and building fence for other people. But they don’t like me buying Bionicle or anything toy related for that matter.

Okay seriously, where are Quake Beast and Umarak?

Its your money that you earned, nobody can tell you what to do with it, and for what you are using it is not that horrible.

Thank you, friend. That actually sounded awesome when I read it. Not being sarcastic at all.

But until my parents see that, I’m stuck asking.

many posts ago, i posted this, which is what i imagined Umarak would sound like before Journey to One had aired.

Umarak’s voice

i loved that voice so much i made this:

and it really fits with Umarak’s age and element.

that and if you imagine the voice saying Umarak’s lines from Journey to One, its actualy pritty creepy.

and if you all don’t know who Sel-Makor is (the figure that the voice clip originates from)…

Very nice! But I was thinking more about a description of how he actually comes alive (like, describing the moment itself).
I’ll post my description when I have more time.

Uh, guys…I just realized something…

As many people speculated, Makuta is not actually purple…he’s pink.

As you can see, his shade of “purple” is much lighter than the color used for Etoku and Terak. I doubt that it’s just a mistake since Makuta uses this same color throughout the entire graphic novel.

(I know this was brought up before, but I think this is solid proof that he was intended to use pink.)

As if we could trust the guys that painted Narmoto green… :stuck_out_tongue:

Yes, Makuta is actually Trans-Dark Pink



Which all of you would know as Tahu Mata eyestalk colour.

As @blu made a fan art out of it, it would look way nicer if he sticks to that colour scheme.

Oh right I forgot there is a thing on this website and pretty much every website called “replying to comments”

Into more terrifying matters… Quake Beast and Umarak the Destroyer are not available on the UK Lego site (And it seems other sites)

#I’ve called them up and apparently they have been delayed, its estimated to be a week before we get them.

No reason was given for the delay.

I did double check about whether this is a sign of the sets being cancelled completely, however it seems that it is just a delay, however the site will have an announcement about Bionicle if they do plan on cancelling the wave.

I would personally like to see Makuta use transpink, but I’m not finding it that high of a possibility that they would actually do it.

It would invoke that “handsome villain” thing that he’s not only powerful but also intimidating due to his pure masculinity.

Right as you typed this they re-appeared on the US site.
