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.

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.

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

Yeah Ga-Koro is great in that game. It's a shame the other koros are so half-assed. If they had limited the scope to Ga-Koro and put the effort they spent on the other koros into puzzles and just things to do other than grinding and Kohlii it would've been a good game. The roof puzzle and the disc throwing minigame from the start are always kind of jarring because they feel like they come from an actual adventure game instead of the the grindfest we got. It would also be nice if there was something more interesting happening than a kohlii tournament story wise but I suspect Templar didn't have much control over that.
The one nice thing about the game is the personality. Templar was always good at that and you can tell that as soon as they stopped being involved there was no one left that cared about the matoran or their personalities.

MNOG 2 was actually my first exposure to bionicle as a kid. I thought Hahli and the rest of the Ga-korons were all males so when we were pretending to be bionicles in the playground at recess I wanted to be a water-chad, got laughed at, and decided to be an onu-chad instead (it was the only other region I managed to get to in the game)

>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.
The music in the intro was really ominous so I kept expecting to be ambushed by enemies at some point. The long areas of wilderness with nobody there really scared me as a kid and I vaguely recall some matoran warning you about rahi. Whenever I got the black screen I assumed I got killed by a rahi and died.
In hindsight
>>11240633
The game would have been amazing if they did something aside from the shitty koli minigame. Gathering all the matorans in MNOG1 and holding all the rahi off in the final battle was hype as fuck and they honestly should have done something similar. I remember the first thing you can do in MNOG2 was throw a disk at that water bridge thing, and there was dice roll RNG involved like DND, so maybe RNG combat using discs was originally supposed to be a thing?

Yeah I honestly hate how leftists just *have* to be the center of attention and make everything about their bullshit and shame anyone who wants to remain apolitical. It's a weird combo of the modern shitlib desire to virtue signal and the old school leninist "art as a weapon" so they can't just chill and enjoy something and *have* to always push an agenda.
I have nothing against trannies but I just wish they would not forcefully make everything about them all the time always.

>According to Peter Mack, following the Great Tournament, the Matoran villages and kolhii fields would be replaced with "ravaged village squares and battlefields," where the mechanics of the kolhii minigame would be adapted into fights with the Rahkshi. The Crystals gathered by Hahli would aid her in these minigames (though would not have been necessary for beating the game), and she would have sought out the Matoran of each village and lead them to the Kini-Nui. This idea was ultimately never developed due to budget cuts and waning support from LEGO.

I just found out how easy it is to rip models from ds games, what should I do with this knowledge?

That makes me wonder how hard it would be to mod the ds game to have proper analog controls(and a jump button) and the console models/textures.

But yeah, quake mod.

Couldn't export it to mdl to add it to quake, for some reason it doesn't work with ripped models even though it works with the models I made. I asked for help in the quake modding discord but so far no replies. I'm gonna just rip all models from the game and post them somewhere, and if I ever figure out how to export to quake I'll make a mod.

Stumbled across someone selling a complete Roodaka für 40 bucks, which is lower than the moon prices I've seen for her. I've not been actively looking for her at all but I've been thinking about collecting the stuff I never got as a kid, is 40 bucks a decent price for her?

HRT destroyed the nerd community more than crack did to the black community. We just gotta be more active on other platforms, instead of using 4chan all the time.

>I had never considered the possibility of Asian Bionicle fans in general
There's a moderate sized Japanese Bionicle MOC community and some of them have even kept up with the online fan contests of recent years. But the franchise's popularity took a hit around 2004 for some reason and Japan pretty much stopped getting Bionicle media after that. They didn't even release the 3rd film.
>>
>>11246425
I remember being a kid and hunting down the Japanese Kaita instructions and building them off tiny ass jpegs. Good times.
>>
>>11245976
I liked when the lore aspect of Bionicle was a collaborative project of different creative people planning out a story and universe with mysteries to solve and settings to explore. When it was just Greg sitting alone, making up stuff on the fly with no end goal, it felt empty. What's the point of following a story when the writer himself does't care about where it goes?
Besides, Greg was just one guy who had his own interpretation of the story and his own writing preferences that shouldn't be taken as gospel. I'm pretty sure the other creators didn't care or even know about any of the stuff Greg wrote outside of the basic main plots. For example in Faber's personal version of the lore, Hero Factory has secretly been a sequel to Bionicle all along.

>>11246041
Greg wrote some good plot twists but his work feels too much like Dragon Ball Z power level autism sometimes, and we never really got good slice of life after MNOG and MNOG 2's depiction of Mata Nui. The closest was Mahri Nui sets harvesting air weed and having those rahkshi air cows. We never explore the comfy day-to-day life of matoran in any other regions
>>11246439
I find it interesting how many parallels there are between Bionicle and the old Star Wars Legends Expanded Universe. Both were multi-media story projects involving everything from comics to video games to flash games to novels with all sorts of different authors and attempts to stitch the canon together when two stories dont mesh well. It was SOVL cause it was before everything became formulaic like the MCU
>>
So wait, you're telling me the playsets had alternate builds? Was it only 2005-ones, or did they do these for every year? Are there even proper pics of these archived anywhere? I really like the scorpion Visorak

I think that's all models. I noticed some enemies were replaced by stronger ones as you progressed through the game, even when going back in older stages, so this game a sort of hidden rank system, which made me think there could be more I didn't find yet, but I already beat it and found nothing else. I even unlocked the makuta cheat that makes enemies stronger, but all that does is make them all black.

>My personal favourite, which would have tied Hero Factory directly to Bionicle, was the reveal that Mr Makuro was a/the Makuta, and secretly operated a Villain Factory beneath the Hero Factory. For every Hero that was produced, a villain was also made, giving Makuta total control of both supply and demand.

if you have any of those balls with only one hole you should use them for the eyes instead, so they look more round. I don't know if they are rare or not, I only remember seeing them in old sets. if you have a pohatu you can just switch them and no one will notice

Oh yeah I should probably get those, and also longer eyestalks. I think they were in a lot of sets so they should be common on bricklink

Holy shit thanks anon, just read through and this is sick.
Personally i think the idea of "Makuro is evil and was making villains too" is a bit too obvious, but hey, maybe they would've been able to spin it more interestingly had the story team been allowed to go darker, or with the original more sardonic tone envisioned. Or been allowed to develop these characters anything more than they had. Ech.

Hey I never got into Ninjago, were the characters in that show as basic as HF's were forced to be? It's so sad to me how raw a deal HF was handed.

I don't know about other seasons but I wathced Prime Empire (2020) back then. I was surprised that it (relatively) had some actual depth, and that they tried to make it engaging and interesting as a standalone TV show, and not just some dumbed down commercial for the toys. They even referred to events and characters from earlier seasons without making stuff hard to understand for new viewers. Sure, it was still a lighthearted kids show, but it definitely had more things going on than the episodes for Hero Factory and Bionicle G2.
>>

>>11248455
Alright, thanks; I'll try giving it a shot then. I think I'd only ever watched the very first 7-8ish episodes as a kid, and at the time I thought it was okay, but got kinda pissy that it wasn't [immediately] as deep as Bionicle, and so just never bothered. But if it's got such an enduring fanbase, then I'm certain there's gotta be a good reason for it.
>>
>>11248616
It's dogshit. Prime Empire is a stand out alongside Sons of Garmaddon and Hunted, but the rest tends to be dogshit and none of the characters really have any permanent development after Hunted.
>>
>>11248010
Hmm yes perhaps it does. I also want to make the shark a bit bulkier. All the gen 1 technic rahi look kinda skeletal. Like how would the takea shark from the master builder set eat anything

Are there any good MOCs of Pewku? Mainly giving him a more solid shell, but I'm also thinking maybe making him a bit smaller?

I love the idea that the Sons of Makuta have been gestating since the Toa arrived on the island and have been feeding off their power in some way. Maybe that's why Makuta let the Toa into his lair and let them become Nuva in the first place. He was making his Rahkshi more powerful the whole time.
