It's here. The mask is tiny and won't fit anything else without modifications, and it uses the same inika build, but it was worth it for the price, considering it's fucking mata nui. I'm going to make a moc with keetongu's parts and his mask someday.

I've been thinking of getting rid of some of my bionicle collection, mostly just the later year stuff I don't have that much attachment to.

Most of my shit is pretty well organized and complete in their original canisters, would it be better to list everything individually on bricklink? or just dump everything into a big lot to get rid of it all at once? Not in any sort of rush I just felt like this shit was just rotting in storage.
>>
>>11230184
Any collectibles? You should sell collectibles separately, but yeah I'd just list sets on bricklink/ebay.

Big lots generally move very slowly unless you price it really really cheap. Like technically any bionicle set could be more parts to someone's collection but people generally don't want to buy sets they already own in a big lot for close to full price. If you list them all separately they're more approachable and you'll get better value but its more work on your end.

I remember building a fat Roodaka (?) MOC around 2008 when I was around 12-13. I never actually owned Roodaka or any sets with Vahki heads, but I think it was inspired by Roodaka. I don't remember the head design though. Maybe it wasn't even a Roodaka MOC and I just slapped some random mask on it. But I used 3 Bohrok-Kal face shields as the belly (I don't remember how I managed to put them together to face a belly with my MOCing skills at the time but it probably looked like shit) and Nuva shoulders for the boobs. I also made sure to make the limbs chunky, so I used Vahki calves and Piraka limb armors with Metru thighs. It probably looked like some cursed Inika build with my messy custom shit added on top of it.

This has been triggering my autism for years. The black and red vahki have the wrong eye colors. Has anyone ever swapped them? I only have the black one.

I remember 100%ing this back in 06, but I'll be goddamned, I can't play more than probably two missions before shelving it for months at a time now. The repetitive music and gameplay, and the horrid blooming effects since I own it on Ps2 just suck the fun right out of it for me now. It's a shame because there's a lot I like about it. Just can't deal with actually trying to play it.
>>11236583
See I'd be happy with a sort of Ark/Mnog/Runescape third person hybrid where you have the usual survival, leveling, and building aspect, but with some kind of npcs to interact with and set locations to explore. Being a random Matoran villager, just doing quests and gathering materials to make a fortified living space and tame/fight Rahi beasts on some sort of island, Voya, Mata, or just some new place that offers new secrets to explore.

The gameplay loop is a major slog, but it has a few redeeming qualities. Removing the auto-aim and invincibility makes it slightly more tolerable.
>>11236698
The bloom can be easily patched out on PC. The game is less of an eyesore without it.
>>
>>11236817
If you mean Bionicle pieces, yes, they are. Lego is a system so everything is compatible with everything. Bionicle sets often use a lot of regular Technic pieces and sometimes even a few System ("regular lego") pieces too. They were made with the same quality standards in mind. However lime colored ball sockets in 2007 and all the ball sockets from 2008 onward til 2010 were notoriously fragile. Which was probably a major contributing factor for the decrease in sales which consequently led to the cancellation of the theme.

maybe if you never upgrade your armor, so you have to avoid shots more, but not upgrading your weapon sounds like it would make the game even more of a slog

When I was little I somehow played through this entire fucking game without realizing you could buy upgrades, and I thought the game was fucking impossibly hard.

Flashback to like a year ago, I decided to give the game a replay and Nuparu's fully upgraded weapon is so fucking broken literally the only time I ever died was against bosses since they're the only thing his screen-wipe of a gun can't one shot before they can attack you. It was kind of cathartic in a way, I actually was going to try and 100% complete it but not being able to skip cutscenes makes replaying the game just to push one hidden button per level as Vezon too much of a slog.

Man I would love an expanded version of the 2006 era after the Inika come to voya nui, because the toa mata felt like they did a lot as mata, the nuva a lot as nuva, the metru a lot as metru, and even the hordika a lot more as hordika but all the Inika did was:
. Get into a fight
. Meet axon and shoot some matoran’s into being not slaves
. Invade the piraka hideout
. Go inside a volcano to race some piraka and initiate a boss fight
All this happened in like a day
I mean they did go down that staircase thingy, but that book never got released

I feel like voya nui online game should be canonised, there is no reason why it shouldn’t, because it feels right for what the Inika arc should be and what it was advertised as being. Well, it’s my headcanon at least, essentially starting after they meet axon and canon before the piraka hideout invasion (of course I can’t count the last part) because it makes too much sense not to be. Like it’s disappointing playing bionicle heroes as a kid and expecting the Inika arc to be like that, but nah


The mahri arc was fucking great though, and I liked the hordika arc story rise because I always been partial to darker gloomier things even as a kid, I didn’t care about the flaws the atmosphere of that arc alone made it among my favourites

>Being a random Matoran villager, just doing quests and gathering materials
Obviously much more basic than what you're talking about, but the start of MNOG2 is literally just this and it's surprisingly fun. Even though all you're doing is repetitive fetch quests between a handful of Matoran in Ga-Koro, having them all move around and interact independently plus the distinct personalities in their five lines of dialogue each does a good job of making it feel deeper than it actually is.

The Inika really only had two books to flesh them out, Legends 3 and 5. Legend 4 was about the Piraka's backstories for some reason. I remember liking that book but most of it was pretty pointless in retrospect and just stalled the story progression.
Faber's file leaks revealed that Greg really wanted to focus on the Nuva in the first two 2006 books, while his bosses wanted the Nuva gone. Had Greg listened to them, I think he could have fit the Piraka backstories into the first two books, so book 4 could have been dedicated to the Inika to give them more of a story. In the end, I'm glad Greg didn't just shove the Nuva aside like the execs wanted, but the story and its media could have been planned out better overall.

I'm so mad at myself. This alone makes MNOG II actually playable, now I have to do a second playthrough actually playing it legit. The idea of playing through MNOG II without cheating is a completely fucking foreign concept to me, but I'm kind of excited now to try though.

MNOG II is really special to me, it's basically the only official Bionicle... uh, anything, where nothing extreme is happening and nobody's in danger, and you just get to see and explore what the average peaceful day is like.

Request for bigger collection having Bionicle anons:
Can someone in posession od both black and pearl/metallic black Rahkshi masks take a photo comparing both colors?

I bought black one off of bricklink and it looks really off compared to other black pieces I have (like 1/4 the way from black to pearl dark grey), so I wonder if I got the pearl black one by accident, or it's solely because of the piece's texture.
Sadly my phone camera hardly catches the difference
