BIONICLE 2016 Discussion Topic

I’m saying there was never a 2017 line up planned. Story was planned for 3 years, not sets. Additionally, I have heard rumor that that MoUP was 3D printed, not produced. Someone needs to ask Dorek about that, but I believe he said it somewhere.

While some of that is true, the fact of the matter is you won’t get the voices. You won’t get the amount of people required. If you did, yes, I’d believe you could get a polybag at the very least. But the fact of the matter is that we don’t have that amount of people required to get that to happen. It may not hurt, but I feel it’s a waste of time. However, you are free to do with your time what you will, and I won’t stop you unless it break rules.

As I said above, that’s a combo model. It’s comprised of several different sets. This has been confirmed by Dorek according to Lego, along with a list of those sets. What you should be asking for isn’t the set, but instructions.

While I’m glad you are all here and on this site, I want to be realistic here. I’m not telling you not to. I’m not even stopping this discussion. You’re free to do whatever you wish so long as it doesn’t break our rules, and if you feel it’s what best, then go for it. However, I will not personally entertain the idea that there’s a chance to get a full-fledged set after Lego announced Bionicle has been cancelled. What we need to ask for is instructions for the combo model, since that’s basically the set. THAT, I believe, is very possible.

for the people saying that it would be a waste of money to give away a ton MoUP, I think it was more expensive to give away 8 14/17? karat golden masks, it probably won’t happend and if it does not everyone will get one

Let me add my two cents here - TLG have no printing matrix for MoUP mold, prototypes that we’ve seen were clearly 3d-printed! There’s no chance that we’ll see it in a flash as the official LEGO product.

So please relax, Eljay is absolutely correct with his thoughts.

EDIT:
real golden masks were created to advertise the line. And no, they are not that expensive if you think about it

You can say with absolute certainty that I won’t get the voices all you want, but I think I’ve made my intentions clear, and I’ve said my piece, so I’ll leave this debate at that.

The post is straight from Dorek of Eurobricks.

By the way, I heard that the Lego team / Volta put some thank you messages into JtO. Where are they? Thank you!

Well mine is :stuck_out_tongue: i built a pretty complete moc, now im gonna take my time and go over everything and tweeking it

I signed it. Heck, call me what you want! At least I try! I can’t stand how “history” repeats itself when it comes to sad events like this, with no ideas to change on it. Even if our attempts fail, at least we will have a good feeling that we tried.

I swear if Lego made this “business decision” to transfer Bionicle’s overall budget into Ninjago only to make a better marketing for it… Lego will be :skull_crossbones:

There might be a new Construction system from Lego by then. Maybe it’s the last year of CCBS
