I don’t think that lego will do it but it would be amazing if in journey to one there is an epic fight scene between Tahu and Umarak the destroyer and then at the end Tahu beheaded Umarak but I think that is a bit to violent for lego

So you would like Tahu to behead you? That’s…so violent…I love it!
But it is extremely unlikely, and we don’t know if we’ll get summer 2016 episodes for TJTO

@Rockho Did… Did Hahli just… die after crushing her head under her own foot…? My gosh… That’s not violent man, that’s just outright dark and morbid. :stuck_out_tongue:

Yeah but, how did her head fall off in the first place? That was just outright insanely creepy.
:scream:

Also which toa should I draw next?

Ah, right because turbulence and limes don’t mix because the lime will go flying and then explode. Also why does the toa of water have green joints?

Back to the colours discussion (I have to say mine and I was not here, so I’m sorry if I rehash old topics) : I think, besides all the art theories and matching colors and all, there are colours that, even in a small quantity, break the armony of the whole. Kopaka’s metru blue merges perfectly with white, then good old light blue comes and all’s well… then gold comes and break. Then you look at Gali, and you see the corals vibe, the deep blue merging with softer blue and then… you see that horrible silver focus on the chest. Then again you go to Lewa, which I agree with Eljay and others that green/lime green work perfectly, you finally have a really nice crystal piece, sweet lime bohrok eyes and green shells… and then you have spammed silver at the lower legs, again on the chest and the shoulders make everything even weirder. Then you go to Pohatu… and everything is strangely fine for me LOL. The chest design grown a lot on me and it’s beautiful, only the bubble arms are a bit underwhelming. Tahu is fine as can be and Onua is so unmentioned these days that I have to think that he’s really the most successful Toa.

It’s from my unpublished review. I took it several days ago!

Wouldn’t that make unity pointless?
I would like a fight where Umarak wins. Viciously.

Nope, just generic bear traps

Imagine if they had a scene like this in the netflix show though…that would be an obscure yet neat callback :smile:

They do appear to be somewhat alive, capable of closing/biting without really being triggered. Only thing they lack is movement. Might have been another of the things that inspired them to do the shadow traps.

Honestly expecting it to focus on Unity - Umarak drains some of the power from the creatures, at which stage the Toa arrive and free the creatures then diverting all their power willingly to Ekimu making him into a toa-sized set which enables him to battle and defeat Umarak.

Though I’m expecting ‘The Journey To One’ to focus more on the 2015 storyline. The idea of the Toa coming together. E.g. The Journey ‘to unity’ as one.

Poor Pohatu… everyone hates you :sob:

But do not worry… I’ll buy you first along with Umarak of course

It would be a nice callback from Lego if they would make a same kinda commercial for Gali. She is now the fastest.

German catalog showing the 2016 sets.


Here’s the translation " Help the Toa to unite with the elemental creatures to win the battle against the evil and seize the golden Mask of Control! You can combine the Toa with any creature to create completely new and unique powers that will decide the (outcome) of the battle. The sturdy models allow for an intense play with fearless action. Together the Toa and the creatures form an unstoppable force!"

Now it gives a much more mythical feeling. Also Netflix sign at the bottom of the second picture.
