Also, Lego will still sell buildable figures (which is what Bionicle sets really were), they just won't be called Bionicle. Those Ben 10 sets will be released in early 2010 (I'm obviously not going to buy those). A new line of sets will be released in summer 2010 which we won't know anything about until February, based on what I've heard

Edit: No, I never bothered collecting any Kanohi. I only bought the sets.

Yeah. I won't bother with the Ben 10, but the unknown line I probably will buy.

About the Kanohi, I never really got any besides the ones that came with the figure. 8 1/2 years later, I regret not getting the Kanohi packs.

The Fridge / Bionicle

I'm not really surprised. I only had 5 2008 sets (Vamprah, Onua Nuva, Radiak, Solek, and the green Rockoh T3 or whatever) and 4 2009 sets (Stronius, Metus, Vastus, and Tarix) I plan on buying all the Stars, however. Well, once we learned about the Stars actually being in the story, I figured the end was near, but I figured there'd be at least some more sets. At least the story is continuing.

Bionicle will have a replacement in 2010 (Those rather bad looking Ben 10 sets will be for a younger audience). Look at Bionicle this way, like the undersea line, there was Aqua Raiders, maybe 2-3 years ago. Now there is an Atlantis line. Same with space. 2000-ish had Life on Mars, 2006-2008 had Mars Mission, now theres Space Police. Lego Technic had those Throwbots in the late-1990's, then Roboriders. Then came Bionicle in 2001. Think of it as a continuation, using existing parts and creating a new storyline.

Of course, I have recently got back into Bionicle, thanks to Vastus, Stronius, and the Stars. Not surprisingly, I receive my first Mctoran/Tohunga build (Huki) ever, the day after I learn of this.

Anywho, The Chronicler, do you have a large Kanohi collection?

Hobbies and Recreation / Warhammer 40k!

I almost bought a set of those. The red dinosaur-like things. But I decided not to because of the price. I don't know, $34.99 for a bunch (not sure how many) of un-painted miniatures seems decent, but I wasn't willing to spend that much. I do love miniatures thought, like Dungeons and Dragons, Mech Warrior, and all those other ones.

The Fridge / Your usernames

« on: October 03, 2009, 08:35:44 PM »

Thought I poster here before? Oh well. I'll use several aliases from the past few years.

Compy-Rex is, obviously, a merge of Compsognathus and Tyrannosaurus Rex

BrassMonkey, just a random name I used at another forum to do some "detective" work a friend asked me to do.

DingoMan, hmmm, based of the Crash Bandicoot character Dingodile I suppose.

Dr. Manhattan, named after the Watchmen character, I still use this name.

PuppiesWithGunz, used when a friend said an old Stick Arena clan name, either Dogs With Gunz, or Cats With Gunz, originally a joke turned out to be another alias.
