Bionicle Teambuilding Workshop

[@TOAOFULTIMATEDOOM]

The Team: "Tahu is racist" The Team one minute ago: *fifteenth ash joke

[@fongjasper8206]

lol

[@NoTheRobot]

"What the hell-heck was that about buddy" has immediately been added to my vernacular. Killer job y'all!

[@shadowclaw7210]

Brother Buddy

[@Yan_Alkovic]

"Pass the Lime Joint" Took me a while. But then I was on the floor.

[@DecepticonScout]

I noticed Kopaka had an icicle hanging on the mouth mask after Onuwa posed.

[@cowboybarbaryn1302]

“Enemies? Or Lovers?” Gali fucking gets it

[@crf3479]

time stamp?

[@jacobrucquoi4824]

"pass the lime joint" is my new favorite Bionicle joke

[@R9000]

For an animation style that's basically just posing the figures and waving them about a bit, the characters are incredibly expressive. The body designs for the toa are so cool too. Fantastic job!

[@ebomb1133]

I mean that's how the guy who does Arby and the Chief has done it for years 🤷 but I agree 100%

[@cakemanLHK]

I'm absolutely loving Lewa's treespeak in this

[@lukestarkiller1470]

This video has the best use of Tree-speak I’ve ever heard

[@LegacyComics100]

0:41 Okay, that was actually a very potent burn from Tahu considering what Toa Tuyet has done… There’s also Nidhiki as well, but that was after they stopped Tuyet.

[@purplehaze2358]

This is a lot closer to their canon characterizations than I thought it would be.

[@jacobcox4565]

Does this mean Toa Mata Tahu is canonically racist?

[@Raviolling]

I always felt he would be, or at least controversial, and I definitely see him calling Onua Piraka

[@justsomeguy5628]

Except that Kopaka becomes close friends with Pohatu, but I guess this could just be earlier on.

[@purplehaze2358]

The fact that the toa metru, _while not in their turaga forms,_ encountered the toa mata surely means that there's some time paradox shenanigans going on in this thing.

[@achievementart]

AU where Vakama really smashed the Vahi to bits

[@XboxTF2Tidbits]

Au where matoran just woke up instead of needing toa powers

[@kymonkeyboy6844]

The tone and puppetry in this is perfect! Classic bionicle vibes

[@sjreads7235]

Absolutely flawless from start to finish!

[@soundwave3126]

I've watched this five times now and I just realized why Pohatu asks Lewa for the lime joint..... It's crack

[@bumbleprime7713]

LMAO NOW I GET IT

[@SavorySoySauce]

"What the hell heck was that about brother buddy?" Was a great line

[@joshmariotti2844]

The only female character having to deal with the bull shit of the rest of the team is a trope I'll always find enjoyable

[@mattybaratz2526]

You guys absolutely nailed this, you managed to take caricatures of each Toa and turn it into a brilliant sitcom, absolutely bravo

[@Herobuilder21]

I feel like any joke I've seen relating to bionicle in recent years has been about their existence and then disappearance as a cultural event, like third-party approximations of what bionicle was- jokes about remembering a kid having one, bits about the Bionicle Dream, "The Red One" "When he shows me his bionicles" etc. It's dug up an old emotion in me to see very distinctly present day humor alongside what is clearly the understanding of the actual bionicle setting that only a fan would have

[@mootroidXproductions]

I appreciate you saying that so much! There's no Bionicle without the lore!

[@liser]

Man I hope we get more of these sorta canon Bionicle skits you did here. There is so much wit on display in this script and it all oozes there character, but with some modern logical additions for comedy like Lewa being a pot head and Onua being a gym jock both of those ideas feel like such natural extensions of their characters.

[@hilariousskullnamedcatzo647]

I Like how tahu forgot they only killed the demon yarn ball in gen 1 because they used their powers together

[@joshykaizo]

i read it as "demon yarn barn" the first time & thought it was really funny (yarn ball is still funny)

[@sandspada]

Tahu may be hot-headed and brash, but he always valued unity and teamwork. He was the one who suggested splitting into teams during the Quest for the Masks, and he gave Gali hope that they could win while fighting against the Manas by fighting together. Even when he was suspicious that Lewa was still under the Bohrok's control after he was possessed by the Krana, he didn't hesitate to help him even when Lewa himself was unsure if the plan he came up with to capture the Bohrok Kal was actually a trap implanted into his mind by the Bahrag. The only time he willingly offered to split the team up was after they obtained their Toa Nuva powers, where Tahu would realistically want to return to help rebuild Ta-Koro after the Bohrok's rampage

[@jurgenronaaz4695]

Admittedly they seem to forget that they only ever get anything done together at least once a year, this isn't exactly out-of-character for him specifically

[@sandspada]

@@jurgenronaaz4695 They really wanted to drill the whole Unity, Duty, Destiny theme into our heads in those early years

[@emel6423]

Love how Matau just Gibby'd

[@mootroidXproductions]

rip gibby's ribs

[@anzullic]

I knew Raven would be into Bionicle. I also liked the format of the video. It's fine to not spend 6 month for 30 seconds on a stop motion.

[@masahige2344]

That Mr. Beast/Mr. Rahi reference was subtler than the seasoning in English cooking

[@Randomtwighlight40]

that was my idea i was the codirector B) thank you for noticing

[@ebomb1133]

I had the biggest dumb smile on my face watching this entire bit, and I absolutely love it! I also adored all the clever jokes about deep lore, poking fun at a lot of Bionicle history. Phenomenal job as always Mootroid!

[@BovineDesigns]

"what the hell-heck" is such a brilliant joke that can only work with Bionicles.

[@zolden37]

REMEMBER BIONICLE!!! Let it live forever in our memories and hearts.

[@Blitz_Kaiser]

This is a master piece i love how the toa bounce off each other and pohatu breaking the 4th wall i was genuinely luaghing at the conversion developing also i love the moc builds

[@c.j.fedderson5541]

HONEY WAKE UP! Our favorite sitcom is on!

[@NixiShavalMusic]

seriously i cant get over these builds, holy hell theyre amazing

[@NorthstarSystem]

insanely good builds, like the great spirit itself made them

[@simonmcgough8044]

Hilarious, loved the double meanings.

[@mootroidXproductions]

you are too kind

[@mokeymokey1035]

It’s a fucking crime that this doesn’t have a million views

[@DoctorNuriel]

"pass the lime joint" oh my god

[@kevin-2.1]

3:36 Yeah I agree with Pohatu like shoes, like I’m ok with that. But since he brought it up 😂, I feel bad for him, kinda. Also great video wish there was more, and I like that you added the toa of Metru Nui into the meeting.

[@Juassicparktrex1]

Mata nui force ones

[@fighterx9840]

Gotta admit though, Pohatu's kicking ability is legendary

[@NorthstarSystem]

this is perfect. the writing, voice acting, designs, everything.

[@Crimson.Creates]

Can't believe you got Aubrey Plaza to voice Kopaka

[@Matter_Of_Fact]

The "Wise Gains" line is so funny

[@notecolt2742]

This feels like the office or parks and rec, love it

[@ohmniswaves93]

I love how good characterized is Onua ❤

[@treykincy]

Now that you mention it, it is really funny that the other toa got weapons and Pohatu got some J’s

[@MakutaTobi]

It took me waaaay too long to come around and watch this, you not only did some really cool builds here, but your script was top notch, I think this is my new favourite. You and the other actor played it really well, I quite literally needed to hold in a scream laugh on my lunch break 💜💜💜

[@treykincy]

Tahu being a raging conservative is so freaking funny to me😂

[@Draezeth]

Yo, how is it so fitting though?

[@chris_wizzudz]

@@DraezethBecause he's red, maybe?

[@kingsim9288]

Wanna see more of team Mata. That was so funny!😂😂😂

[@Jormyyy]

Himbo Onua is my new favorite thing. That was sa great and hilarious skit BTW genuinely funny writing

[@alessassela7691]

This is peak bonkle comedy Also are there any instructions of these toa models? They look super expressives

[@volutedshark8461]

THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST THINGS IV SEEN SO FAR

[@Scanlaid]

The treespeak sent me. So thoughtfully done, spot-on with the lore. Too good!!

[@Herobuilder21]

the directing is so masterful. my god

[@zolden37]

I am glad this exists. Its beautiful

[@spiteboxstudios]

LMAOOOO this might actually be my favorite video from you i was losing it the entire time

[@anthonybanjak1000]

"You could say Toa Tuyet had teamwork issues too" Harsh 😂

[@theMilkproductMk2]

The writing in this is gold omfg lol

[@stevenfreebairn2553]

"Starbonks."

[@chadderbug7587]

Never would've thought I'd see Onua call Tahu rachist 😂😂😂

[@GrizbyK72]

Had to laugh at Matau launching himself at the lime “joint” at the end. Brilliant.

[@sleepyandsleepin]

This is absolute gold and deserves more recognition so badly XDDD

[@ThatTallBrendan]

THE _LIME, JOINT._ *HOLY SH•T* Thank you for actually scripting that in because admittedly, I wouldn't have put the pieces together on that joke, myself.. Pun intended. Also not that there isn't a limit to how political these Bionicle skits can get, but the idea of Tahu falling down the •lt-R•ght rabbit-hole is utterly hilarious I'm picturing a steady progression from, 'Consider the natural hierarchy of the Ussal Crab- "Clean your canister"', to being caught watching the Bionicle equivalent of that time Kanye went on Alex Jones, _with the mask on_ Makuta sitting at a desk next to *'KOH-RAK,* _THE ICE BOH-RAK',_ talking about '"The Matoran question'" "Hey, Tahu.. what are you watching on your phone there?" "It's nothing you would understa-" "The 'Turagan Deep-Wahi'? Harvesting Matoran for protodermi-chrome?!? Tahu this has gone on long enough-!" *"THERE NEVER* _WAS_ *A RAKSHI ATTACK GALI-!"* "No-! *No more* of these.. _Nui-Gate conspiracies.._ Give me your phone!" Meanwhile Kopaka *wants* to open up to Tahu about his cross-dressing but _knows_ it would instantly ruin their friendship Aw, man. It goes on- But that is _too funny_

[@GogakuOtaku]

Fun fact: when they changed the characters’ names after the lawsuit, their pronunciations stayed the same, so Jaller is still pronounced “jah-luh.” Just pretend it’s will an accent like Vakama had in the movies.

[@JohnArmoredCore]

Currently planning an ayahuasca trip with Lewa

[@omegasupreme1912]

Dude you nailed their personalities from the books here. Incredible work.

[@gubbothehuggo2771]

This is surprisingly in-character

[@Not_Vakama_303]

I have watched this more times than I am willing to admit

[@BioCreatorZ]

The new Reviving Bionicle episode looks great! Everyone has gotten serious gains since the last time

[@DecepticonScout]

Oh MATA NUI! Also I feel the pain of Gali and Nokama.

Heheh Tahu is one of the them red pilled fellas

[@davidfeng8205]

This was well done! Nice, I love how you portrayed each toas.

[@UCB_Productions]

Your puppetry is on point. Also, putting the ball on Pohatu's waist makes it look like an outie belly button.
