Could There Have Been More Toa Sets?

My bad.

@Racie02

• Red=Plasma, in red and white. Since the colors for plasma were never depicted (and I’m pretty sure were only canonized after g1 by Greg) this wouldn’t conflict.
• White=Sound, in white and silver. Since the mistika happened, I can absolutely see Lego doing this; and it’s similar enough to Krakua that it could be a variation.
• Blue=lightning, in blue and white, OR psionics in blue and gold.
• Brown=iron, in burnt orange and gunmetal.
• Black=magnetism, in black and grey, OR gravity in black and purple.
• Green=jungle, in green and blue. Or green and brown, perhaps, to have a color that isn’t on one of the other 5.

I like the way you formatted it. Although, I do have to concede to Ghid’s point about Lego not releasing a whole wave of secondary-element Toa. With all things taken into consideration, it probably wouldn’t work out very well.

@Ghid

Telluris, who was in the largest set that year

And I’m pretty sure that set was the largest Bionicle set ever, at least piece-wise.

@Racie02

put the plasma guy in a volcano, put the iron guy on a mountain, maybe even put the gravity guy underground

But…wasn’t the fire guy already in a volcano? And the earth guy was already underground?

@Racie02

when they made green jungle

I really don’t know why they left Air out of G2. Since they kept Ice and Stone…it just seems weird.

@Ghid

-Lightning weapon
-Okay heavy downpour isn’t exactly lightning

Though, to be fair, all of the Toa Inika sets had the lightning-storm background on their lackaging.

@Ghid

Kohrak Kal’s Bohrok shields use sound, and uh… They’re massive snowflakes.

Yeah, I always found that kinda weird.

@Ghid

see a Toa of blood plasma

That sounds pretty gross. Is there a grossed-out emoji that I can use here?

@Ghid

Yo, it’s the Goat guy!

WHUT?

@Ghid

Elemental attachments to color is so prevalent in LEGO themes that Ninjago did almost the exact same thing.

Back when Ninjago first started I was a little confused as to why Lightning’s color was blue, and there was no water. I got used to it after a while, but in hindsight, it’s kinda odd that they made Water’s color gray. Shouldn’t those elements and colors be the other way around? Like, lightning gray, and water blue?

@Racie02

I’d argue that is a harpoon, unless you know the story and know that it’s a laser harpoon (which technically isn’t lightning, but that’s semantics). I’m talking lightning shaped, like surge’s blades.

To quote myself…

@thewimpykid

I was always under the impression that their “laser” weapons could shoot lightning.

@Racie02

I would say concentric circles would get the point across.

Eh, maybe. But I still don’t know how you’d do that with Gravity or Plasma.

@Racie02

I honestly think that had g1 continued, we would’ve seen Toa of at least some of the other elements; almost certainly lightning, based on what both Ninjago and HF did. I’d also say jungle and iron were likely. Sound, psionics, plasma, magnetism, gravity, are less likely.

Based on all the points that have been raised in this topic, the most feasible way to do this would be in a supplementary set, like Lhikan or Takanuva. I myself brought this up in my opening post.
