Putting Bionicle Figures in the Sunlight

Everyone talks about how transparent G2 figures are, or how good or bad a set’s light piping is. Well, why not put it to the test? Feel free to post you’re own Bionicle figures in the light.

I wouldn’t leave them there for too long. Sometimes UV rays can take a toll on plastic over time :wink:

Doesn’t work very well in the area you are at. Try to do a tilted zoom-in with a “dramatic-pose”.

One time I put EtMM on my windowsill.
He glowed so much, it was crazy.

Interesting how you can slightly see through Ackar’s chest piece, most notably near the abdomen

Yeah, the ABS of the parts will keep the pieces fine for prolonged sun exposure.

You know what works even better on Bionicle than sunlight?

A flashlight. I tried it on EtMM, it was insane.

Yeah, a bright concentrated point of light will illuminate clear figures. It’s really cool.

Put figures in front of a blacklight in a dark room, it’s awesome.
