So today, I added a CCBS shell to a MOC. That was the only CCBS piece, though.
Anyways, I think CCBS should have more custom pieces. Like, most of the time, we have these shells. But that’s about it. Shells and bones. We need way more variety (besides weapons).
Say, speaking about textured clip-ons, why not LEGO add multiple organic shells based off of the Piraka legs?l
Also, regarding shell clip-ons, why not Metru clip-ons entirely? The redesigned CCBS Toa metru would be nice.
How do I think CCBS could be improved, you ask?
More types of armor.
Less focus on texture, more focus on actual models. While I love the new sets, if they would just spend less time and money on molds for new armor add on, and more time and money on the actual models, I think we would be better off.
And more bone types, with different everythings :3
More bone types? I can see right angled bones being a thing…
BIONICLE system: Armor and bones, plus some technic stuff.
CCBS: Armor and bones, plus some technic stuff.
I presume that what you want is more devices that are designed for TECHNIC holes.
Perhaps. Or more variation for the shells, and more stuff to put on them.
Perhaps make it more easily compatible to classic BIONICLE’s build.
Or wait 15 years (or, if we’re lucky, 30) and everyone that cares about making CCBS compatible with BIONICLE will be an extreme(ly vocal) minority.
But yeah. Ideas for more textured shells have been thrown out there, and we’re sort of getting that with add ons. We already have two or three standard add-ons (although only one has really been in mass production) to match the three or so primary BIONICLE armor pieces.
I agree mang
Many different everythings for all!
Wait, so do you want more armour/armour add-ons? You seem to be saying two different things here…
CCBS totally needs some of these parts in mass production. So many MOCing possibilities!
Yeah basically those types of bones is what I mean.
About the armor, I just mean both.
But if you want LEGO to spend more money on models, you can’t realistically expect them to keep churning out new armour variants.
Unfortunately, no. I suppose that could have gone just as well in the “unrealistic wishes for BIONICLE” topic.
I disagree, they have been doing that for quite some time now. We just need some more Bionicle-ish type of armor for this line.
We don’t need more Bionicle-esque armor, we need more versatile armor. The balljoint connection system is great and all, but what about the pin system?
Or more coverage with the ball joint connections…? It is impossible to cover an entire limb with it.
We’ll get that. The only reason why we don’t have more unique armor/add-on pieces is that all of the “new mould-budget” was eaten up by all the other new BIONICLE-centric pieces they had to produce.
Ball and socket armour is the CCBS. What are you suggesting?
