“When times are dark and all hope seems lost the Protectors must unite, one from each tribe. Evoke the powers of past and future, and look to the skies for an answer. When the stars align, six comets will bring timeless heroes to claim the masks of power and find the mask maker. United the elements hold the power to defeat evil. United, but not one.”
It’d be interesting to see the “but not one” part end up meaning something totally different that happens in the future.
Edit:If all of the elements are required to defeat evil, then how can the Toa hope to defeat Makuta without the newly introduced element of Shadow? Hmm…
Well to be fair it isn’t trully new in the world, remember, Umarak has live thousands of years. However I don’t think ti counts as an element for it is nothing but if it did…would there be a Ma-koto region? Just made that up heh. And if all elements are requires to defeat evil…wouldn’t the MoUP itself be enough for that?
@BlueCel Well, since Umarak can use shadow powers, it’s pretty much confirmed as an element. The region’s are made from the raw elemental power used to craft the MoUP.
Perhaps Makuta does unite with the Toa and help them defeat evil. Maybe they somehow connect with his inner self, and bring his true feelings and emotions out, but Makuta doesn’t trust himself (feeling the temptation of power and dominance too strong) so he unites with them as the final elemental being required to destroy evil (symbolically speaking) and hurls himself into a volcano, making sure Okoto would forever be safe from him and the MoUP.
I’m prepared for my eyes to get destroyed by the ammounts of trans neon green, just so I don’t die of dissappointment if it isn’t yellow. If it is yellow…imma die, but for joy.
I’ve got a couple of things I’d like to say, everyone.
This topic is obviously enough for discussion regarding the Bionicle 2016 storyline and sets. We encourage discussion and even some friendly debate from time to time. However, a lot in this topic is very easily seen as clutter.
Because of that, I’d like to impart a few things to you all.
Please stop asking for updates. If you were away and there was a new piece of news, either check our channel, PM a member, or check Reddit. That post is nothing but clutter for something you can look up yourself.
BE CIVIL. My gosh, I don’t know how many times I’ve had to say this on the boards, but just because you have an opinion doesn’t mean you can shut others down because of theirs. You are ALL allowed to voice your own opinions. However, do not do so as though yours is better than others, or act as though someone else s opinion shouldn’t not have been said at all. I’ve spoken about my opinions, and people disagreed. That’s fine. And if you want to discuss an opinion, that is fine as well. Just be CIVIL.
Don’t go off topic. Just please don’t. It’s spam. We have a lot of topics for different subjects, and if one doesn’t exist then you can make one for that discussion.
Please flag offending posts. That alerts us to problems so we can handle it. It’s really, really helpful.
Use proper grammar. It’s in our rules, please use proper spelling and grammar to be better understood.
And above all -
Please read the rules. They’re how we keep these Message Boards a fun and enjoyable place for everyone.
Things I’m worried about:
1.)Umarak being neon green (prepared for it though)
2.)Larry having a weapon instead of his bare bloody hands (although vague and unlikely
That’s pretty much it, they are the top priorities on my list and either one of these remarks would make the sets a little less enjoyable.
Yep, it’s the original 2015-styled MOCO. I hope this doesn’t mean that the MOCO will look this way in the rest of the show, or it’ll be really distracting.
The fact that the statue uses his 2015 mask is a bit weird, especially since it will probably appear as it does in the Umarak set when we see it later on in the show. Perhaps it can change forms? Who knows at this point, I sure as heck don’t.
I’m whatever, though I did say £9.99, but conversation over then.
Now what did I miss, anything important?
Is.anyone else worried that this year’s summer wave appears to have a lower budget, or do you think it’s because they’ve scaled down prices in the smaller sets?
@Eljay I read that, yes proper grammar (can I correct people again then? )
Summer 2015: £76.95
Summer 2016: £57.95
Quite a big difference, though I feel like it mostly comes down to £12.99 being £9.99 now.
Has anyone else noticed that with the leak of Ekimu the Mask Maker, He’s got his left foot on top of a (what appears to to be) completely gunmetal/black Umarak the Hunter mask? Or has this already been mentioned?
The Lava Beast is armed with a pair of double-bladed flame swords. These look as though they could be reconfigured into a surfboard or skis but no such feature was demonstrated
