I get super nostalgic looking at stuff from 07 and 08
04 is the most nostalgic
IDK, I’ve been on a nostalgia binge all day due to seeing some pictures of the 01-03 store displays earlier. So, I decided to make a topic where you can post pictures of… well… whatever from the 01-10 original run of Bionicle. Could be fun. Also, the pictures aren’t necessarily the crux of the topic- this is fully open to side conversation with roots around “Bionicle nostalgia” produced by the picture. So favorite parts of a year, personal experiences, etc. are fine.
Admins, I’m not sure whether this would go on artwork or whatever… if it does, you can move it.
Why doesn’t LEGO display the 2015 sets as beautifully as this?
Because the new Bionicle is in boxes, not these wonderful canisters they used to have.
Why only those years?
You said 01 to 04, but I didn’t get into bionicle back then. I am nostalgic for this though.
He was my first set.
Eh, I suppose it can be any year. I’ll change the description. Also… this picture screams so much 2002…
And 3 for 19.99, where did these days go
Ahh… olden days…
A photo from 2006 (not mine), in a Toys R Us
$4 for a bionicle water bottle, I want one.
wait…
what’s that in the top left?!
I think it’s a Bohrok-Kal shield.
Yup
Well, the other day, I saw a display with two Tahu’s and a Pof. Then someone walked past, and the kid in her cart said “Look mom, BIONICLE”. Several times.
Kid: Look mom, Bionicle! Look mom, Bionicle! Look mom, Bionicle! Look mom, Bionicle!
Mom: That’s great, you can admire it all you want, but I 'aint gonna buy you a 20$ action figure! Wait for it to be less than 10$ like the old days!
He he he, VCR TV
I remember some places using VCR TVs like this when I was younger.
I feel so OLD…
Want to feel older? Bionicle started 14 years ago now… heh.
Ack I feel terribly old as well now.
DAT VHS TV THOUGH!!! Man, I’ve never seen a display like this…
