+Dark Raptor I agree on that 2006 and 2007 was Bionicle's prime. I remember being shocked that they shat out Web Of Shadows which was honestly just filler but didn't make a movie of the Inika/piraka It would've made them so much money

[@Kartoffelkamm]

[@bitterheat3415]

My top 5 disappointments 5. No 2006 Movie (imagine that) 4. Snapping pieces in 2008 (LEGO, YOU REINED 2008 WITH THAT) 3. Legend of Mata Nui's cancelation (please give me a beta disc) 2. 2005 (no prequel like this for g2 LEGO, OK) 1. The end of G1 BIONICLE

+Flaming Jockey 5:i agree with you, on 5,but,it was better to be a trilogy(as much as i love legend reborn,doesnt count,beacuse its a diferent animation)

[@kieran10202]

+Flaming Jockey what was wrong with the prequel saga? it's well written, it explains why the bionicle universe is the way it is, and it makes the story more epic because we're dealing with risen and fallen civilastions

[@bitterheat3415]

kieran10202 I mean I don't want anything like 2005. 2004 was good but just 2005 I will complain about.

[@kieran10202]

Flaming Jockey I liked it, I liked what they did with vakama, it shows you don't just overcome a flaw and everything is perfect, sometimes you go too far in the other direction, it's about learning balance, it was also good to see the comics tell of them being at full on war in the bionicle universe.

[@kieran10202]

***** Agreed, Matau turning evil because he got ugly would be petty, and make him seem like a weak character, vakama defected because his group were turning on him, and in his animal state it would seem like his herd was ejecting him, thus he jumped at the chance to be the alpha of a different group, and was only turned back when his old group forgave him. What would that final speech be like if the roles were reversed? Vakama telling matau to get over his vanity? that doesn't carry the same weight.

[@0ddman0ut64]

I enjoyed the 2005 story line, and didn't mind that Vakama betrayed the group for a time. I thought it was rather fitting, given how Vakama was constantly plagued by self doubt, and never really wanted the position of leader, though I do wish that the nagging and criticism from the other toa had been greater than what was depicted, with Nokama becoming the one to finally have enough of the overly critical crap that the others were whining at Vakama for. I also liked how it was ultimately Matau that saved Vakama, as it showed that he had greater depth and integrity, rather than simply being a cookie-cutter-cutout kind of character.

[@orcciezaj]

agreed

[@deemcgann1695]

my headcannon is that, since the events of Web Of Shadows was vakama telling the story to the matoran, vakama claimed that he betrayed the toa to cover up the fact that MATAU was the one that betrayed them. He's just lookin out for his friend

[@lorlh6927]

I agree so much. His insecurities, fueled by the constant criticism of the others make it so fitting for him to become desperate and frustrated. And it gives off a great catalyst for his transition to a wise leader and the future elder which he is to become when awakening the matoran :)

[@RedComet1701]

Are you kidding me? Vakama's betrayal made perfect sense. The way it played out in the movie was perfect. Vakama was under so much pressure to be a good leader. His predecessors Toa Boots were a pretty big boot to fill.

[@borip765]

I guess it was perfect. Doesn't mean it was good.

[@jasonalcatraz5817]

My biggest disappointment is G2 bionicle. When I first heard they were doing this, I said "Finally! Lego is bringing our beloved series back!" But just Battlefront EA, I was so disappointed. The voice acting was atrocious, the story was bland and uninteresting, and the sets! MY GOD THE SETS!!! Bionicle was well known for having sets that were jagged, robotic and menacing. They looked like Michael Bay transformers. Now the new stuff is so smooth and clean. It doesn't say Bionicle at all.

[@Bullboy_Adventures]

Luckily the sets were upgraded in 2016. And are far more superior to the 2015 counterparts

[@emceesmith6665]

I've gotta say, I think the Bionicle Stars get a bad rap. They're certainly underwhelming, and there are about a hundred things I'd rather end Bionicle with over making classic characters like Tahu, Takanuva, and the Rahkshi into Agori Builds. However, think about the circumstances. Due to bad sales, Bionicle was supposed to end after 2009 and be cancelled right there. People at Lego convinced them to do one more series to wrap up the lengthy storyline and give the fans a series send-off, so the fact that they were able to at least wrap the series up is nice given what was happening. I had a lot of fun collecting all six stars before the series was gone for good. And yes, I mean it's been gone for good.

[@pokemaster123ism]

I think the reason that Bionicle never got a theatrical movie release is because all the stories the studios wrote involved the Toa traveling to the human worlds and Lego was not going to have any of that, so they had to produce them in-house and were forced to only have DVD releases

[@k-leb4671]

So basically, the studios wanted Transformers before Transformers became a movie franchise.

[@devackroyd]

I actually genuinely liked 2005's story arch, Vakama and Matau fighting with Matau finally maturing as a character to bring his friend back to the light is truly heartwarming. I don't think choosing Vakama was a bad idea, his leadership was questioned, and Roodaka offered him unquestionable power over the Visorak horde, I totally understand his betrayal and find it fairly justified.

[@kojeb]

Matau had a path to fixing his problems, while Vakama did not. Vakama’s betrayal was well established in the movie

[@devackroyd]

@@kojeb Besides Nokama, it was relatively clear that the rest of the team was not sympathetic to Vakama's plight as a leader during the time in between the two movies, and once the mistakes were made to the point that they had turned into Hordika, he lost all confidence in himself and in that moment was offered an easy option to lead the Visorak horde without any opposition from Roodaka. This seems to be when the rest of the team realized that they had taken him for granted and missed his leadership, and Matau was able to reflect and improve himself to be a better team member and friend to Vakama, a heartwarming transition for sure given the tension and constant questioning of Vakama that occurred early in the movie. You definitely can feel the team become closer than they were from start to finish.

[@jokerswild2380]

@@devackroyd there are also the facts that A.) The rest of the team had been questioning him from the get go, even in Legends of Mata Nui And B.) The Hordika venom was swaying his general aggression and mental state.

[@kieran10202]

Lego's thought process is baffling. In 2009 they wanted to refresh the franchise with a new arc, but they didn't put enough work in, results were sub-par and G1 died as a result. Then they did hero factory, which was eventually cancelled, only for them to start a new bionicle series which has the tone, aesthetic and story complexity OF hero factory, the thing they just saw cancelled. Now, in 2015, despite having more money, more experience and importantly, more fans, they have deliberately made Bionicle with a tone for a target audience YOUNGER than in 2001, thus alienating older fans because they can't even enjoy it on the level they can still enjoy 2001, as well as a lower budget for media production. They're treating it like Fox treats a lot of their TV shows, despite having a dedicated fanbase and an awful lot of very good work put into it, they don't allow it to succeed.

Bionicles stort became a mess around 2005.. To be completley and bluntly honest the best thing bionicle gave us was cryoshels music.. Which was christian music xD lmao

[@kieran10202]

ThreeDaysOfDan how did the story become a mess? they did 2 years where Mata Nui's life was at stake, and then 1 year waking him up before it soft rebooted with a clean slate. It was no more messy than any of the years up until then. I think you're confusing Cryoshell another band, they aren't listed as a christian band.

[@EfodsMovies]

I really hate the Stars, I do, but after hearing what you said, I'm at least glad they existed. It showed that the people who wrote and created Bionicle cared enough to take this to the Lego higher ups and more or less force them to give the dedicated fans at least some kind of send off, no matter how bad the sets were. It's what the sets really represent about the creators, not what they actually contain

[@senjubunny]

I will always find 2005's storyline to be greatly contrived but compelling and interesting. It was that ominous and dark feeling of being swarmed, invaded and conquered. The Hordika definetly made for awesome heroes at the moment, even if the sets left a lot to be desired.

[@terminator572]

I found BIONICLE thanks to the Toa Hordika though.

[@isaiahfritz523]

I could see Hordika Matau as the traitor for 05 story, it would have been an homage to Nidiki's betrayal, and Green is the color of envy, plus the dark side of the element air is their easily manipulated and vile when pist off enough.

[@stealthyoctopus3231]

I always wanted more G1 Bionicle movies. There should've been one for most if not every year but the lore easily justifies much more than that. As much as I like Bionicle's approach to trying things in all sorts of mediums an animated series on the level of something like Avatar or the old DC animated universe putting everything in one place would've been fantastic and probably helped keep it around longer. At the very least it would've reached a lot more people. I think more games at a AAA or even AA level would've helped a hell of a lot too and these days if Bionicle was rebooted into something closer to G1 or even continued it I think that's what I'd want from them the most. At the end of the day there's no way the cancelation and everything it affected wasn't the worst thing that could've happen. Some things can turn a cancelation into a satisfying ending to the extent nobody would even notice it was forced if they weren't aware of what's happening behind the scenes. Obviously that wasn't the case with Bionicle it feels like there was another 7-10 years just in what we were building up to towards the end. What's worse is I think it becomes more and more apparent with the story over time that Bionicle isn't something that needs a finite story. It's a fantastic universe that could go on and on with new characters and places at different points in time.

[@mattmacdonaldmedia2655]

Am I the only person that loves everything about 2004-2005? The Toa Metru are my favorite set ever. And I love the Hordika. I read all the books. I think the story is great. The Toa Metru went through some serious hardships as Toa. I was really hoping after 2005 it would have showed then return to Metru Nui to rebuild it. What about the end of Mask of Light? Turaga Vakama speaks of returning to it to rebuild but then nothing ever came of it. Bring back Metru Nui. Glory days of Bionicle imo.

[@oboistas1]

Gali's voice acting for g2 :T

[@carumsarene]

The reason we didn't get a Lego Bionicle TV Show isn't just because of their distrust with the CCBS system and Hero Factory, but also because of a very limited staff, pushing a lot of Bionicle's media towards second party or third party groups rather than being directly involved. This not only negatively affects the series, but also the toy design. Starting with the Summer of 2015 to now, we have been getting a CONSTANT repetition of very bad moves from the Lego design team. From copying builds, to unoriginal pieces, to poor function design. This is because the toyline is being incredibly rushed. So much though that they're forced to skip functions for certain waves to compensate for it. For example: Winter 2016 toa had no gearboxes and Umarrak was given a copied build. Summer 2016 we see the return of the gearboxes with more unique use and Ekima used as a toa with a poorly rushed build combining the gearbox and the new waist articulation. By this, we can predict either a year without toa sets, or a toa set copying Ekimu's new build. I will credit the new design team with fan service, as they have pretty much confirmed that Gen 1 and Gen 2 are in the same multiverse. Both with reference to the mask of time, and the valley of the maze.

[@williamgalley1481]

My biggest disappointment: only caring about the toys and not the story when I was little. Well, I guess catching up the story from 2001-2005 would be difficult for the 5-year old I was... It just shows how great the toys are. I have such fond memories! Toa Hordika Matau was my first, and I still love him as much as before.

[@Straswa]

I agree for the most part with #8. The movie version did not explain it very well. However the book reasoned that Vakama joined Roodaka to get closer to the captive Matoran and try to free them from within. I agree with the Matau traitor idea too.

I think the biggest missed oppurtunity is gen2's story. I think it would've been cool if it started on Spherus Magna and just reintroduced the characters in a continuation of gen1. Also, there was lots of loose ends so it wouldn't be hard to have it feel like a seperate story because there was the smart pack of vorox the hidden great being, and marendar could've all been story arcs. Furthermore, it would help fleash out spherus magna and since it would've been reformed already it would be a cool locale for it to take place in. for shame lego.

[@toaheroisaacdx372]

then it wouldn't be a reboot.

[@angryfifthgenner5531]

[@DurtyDan]

My theory about Bionicle G2 not getting it's own show: It's possible that Lego didn't expect us older fans to be so exited about the reboot, since I'm sure I'm not the only one who checked out after a while and stopped buying sets, and figured just selling the toys would be enough. Fast Forward to now and suddenly Bionicle is making lots more money then the expected, so now as a test they're making the Netflix series to try and see how things go.

Disappointment: At the very beginning of G1, the Rahi were the only villains you could buy. Young children could scrape together $8 for a Toa with relative ease, but the cheapest Rahi was $15. The most expensive was $90. It didn't help that they were somewhat uncommon to find in stores and each set contained two extremely-similar Rahi, making the price much higher than it needed to be. Thank goodness the Bohrok came afterwards.

[@k-leb4671]

Well, the point back then was to have the sets compete against, no matter what sets you had. Each Rahi set had 2 Rahi each so that they were able to compete; LEGO couldn't assume that the buyer had another set to use the Rahi against. And the Toa are effective enough at knocking their own masks off, so kids could just buy 2 Toa sets and be satisfied.

[@AnomalyAlter]

My #1 disappointment is that Bionicle sets drifted from a more technic reliant design. Things got simpler, and not in a way I'd say is positive. While the classic canister sets weren't exactly the most complex things, they did convey the robotic theme very well and at least attempted some sort of play function. Bohrok I consider to be the epitome of canister sets. Larger Titan sets got even more insane, delivering a complexity of design, play function, and general aesthetic, even if they did leave some flaws. Even with said flaws, they were inspired designs; showing the designers were hard at work, and leaving fans with a craving to create equally incredible constructs. This is not to say Bionicle come tell lacked complexity in its laters years, but such things could only be expect in the very large and expensive sets. Canister sets took a very linear design route. Gone were the days of Bohrok to Rakshi. All to be expected was the same general skeleton with different unique pieces

A pretty big disappointment was the reveal of Makuta of Metru Nui's true name, Teridax. The controversy it created made Farshtey hesitant to reveal names of any other characters. As such, he never told us the real name of The Shadowed One, even though he was planning to do so. I personally dislike Teridax' name. With being called something as gritty and dark as 'Makuta', it was a letdown that the name sounded like something from an early teen's fantasy.

No you should compile all of the books, comic stories, and online story shorts, and release on giant "Legend of the Bionicle." Also include the bits with Angonce and Tren Krom and the core war and all of that Beginning beginning stuff. Basically start with the great beings arriving in Spherus Magna.

[@sebs-shenanigans]

IN-TE-RE-ST-ING. Certainly, you do make quite a lot of sense. The bionicle storyline has some major plotholes. And great beings coming to Spherus magna would be quite interesting

[@AngryGoats555]

+saba agniashvili not sure if that was sarcasm or not lol but look up the timeline on the wiki. It's all there

[@sebs-shenanigans]

It's not a sarcasm, a bit of expansion of Greg's universe will always be apreciated. But still, something still is missing

[@ProjectElementsOEAB]

It would hav been so cool to see the toa inika get a movie

[@shashummga3477]

What’s the music?

[@Shane_Leath]

I feel the biggest disappointment was not making any movies for the Mask of Life Saga.

[@zeratul____1228]

+LuigiRulz324 Unfortunately that is where the series became darker and LEGO didn't want to risk it and considering how much bubble-wrap parents have wrapped around their kids and how overly-sensitive people are these days there is pretty much no chance of it happening. Go look for Bionicle N17 he has made a Stop-motion film about the Voya Nui saga and plans on continuing.

[@Shane_Leath]

Yeah I saw that film and it's pretty good but it's one of those things that just makes me want to see the Professionals do it even more.

[@zeratul____1228]

yeah,

[@trombonemain]

Honestly, I grew up on the Ninjago TV show so I probably think it’s a lot better than it is, but I still love it.

[@markperl3869]

There was a Mixels show.

[@Mike-mf3ed]

Journey to one wasn’t as good as we expected 😔

[@InsideDocsBrain]

GUYS, YOU KNOW HOW BIONICLE IS GETTING THAT 4 EPISODE THING ON NETFLIX, WELL, REMEMBER NINJAGO, IT STARTED WITH 4 EPISODES AS WELL, IF THIS NETFLIX SERIES IS POPULAR ENOUGH, WE MIGHT GET 12 EPISODE SEASONS LIKE WE DO FOR NINJAGO!

[@homopessimist]

Same with Hero Factory. I guess LEGO wants to just test with 4 episodes before doing anything else

[@acrowbar2394]

HEY GUY, LOOKS LIKE YOUR CAPS LOCK KEY IS STUCK

[@InsideDocsBrain]

yah

[@homopessimist]

4 is the number of LEGO. There is 4 numbers in LEGO. There was 4 BIONIClE Movies. There was originally 4 episodes of Ninjago and HF. Therefore, Solek confirmed

[@Thannus]

+brian55235 All hail Solek, the Av-Matoran king.

[@alolaformraichu6096]

Do the top 10 on the makutas. Or even better, Makuta Mocs, like my makuta ultron.

[@anonymoussourcream3175]

The unfinished serials annoy me the most.

[@commanderjason7786]

Same here. I've seen a lot of stories go unfinished: Bionicle, Acceleracers, Half-Life, Tron:Uprising, heck-even the original continuity for freaking STAR WARS seemed to have a unfinished ending(in my opinion, at least). It drives me crazy every time a series gets cancelled before it gets the chance to get its ending.

[@werdna4577]

The Mata Nui robot: Build a great world, and then tear it down in favour of a desert world with very basic forest and ocean moons. I've got star wars for 1-biome planets

[@imadethischanneltocomment767]

That G2 used CCBS

[@TonyAHowes]

In that alternate universe maybe Bionicle wouldn't have been canceled so soon...

[@cynthiautz6702]

+Tony A. Howes but Bionicle is now back.

[@TonyAHowes]

+Cynthia Utz Yeah, but the story will never be the same, and there are a lot of things they could have done so much better.

[@cynthiautz6702]

+Dark Raptor If you think it's Hero Factory with Bionicle slapped on the name, then why is there new version of the original Toa Mata that we know in love?

[@cynthiautz6702]

Whatever you see it, it's still Bionicle. No matter what it is.

[@cynthiautz6702]

-_-

[@bioniclemaster0697]

I had no issue with 2005. Not my favourite, but I don't hate it.

[@markperl3869]

2005 was shoehorned in so no inika film. There was supposed to be a 2002 movie called Bionicle: The Swarm. Bionicle was cancelled.

[@TonyAHowes]

So, Mesonak, what do you think of the Solek set?

[@VersatileElement]

I actually like #8. However, I wouldn't be surprised if it was made because of a movie called Revenge of the Sith.

[@hyperorso4416]

you should make a new disappointment list talking about how bionicle is ending again

[@gagedavis6945]

#1 disappointment=everything about the new line

[@clarkii9782]

#Netflixhype

[@gagedavis6945]

+Atticus Smith no I love the Fandom. it will make MY life better if you let me have my opinion

[@fluffyspork980]

2016 so far is looking to be a much better year for the sets. I doubt the story will be getting any better though.

[@gagedavis6945]

+FluffySpork yea I just get the sets for the parts

[@HarryBillyBobGeorge]

+Gage Davis Except that it EXISTS. Most people never thought it would come back. We tried and our petitions paid off. Now stop whining.

[@michellascaux237]

Im new in the bionicle world what's the cereal????

[@AngryGoats555]

I wish the Okoto online game had happened simply for the joy of people calling it "OOG"

[@t-8836]

The first three Bionicle films are good! It's not a disappointment!

[@DuckandMikeyfan49]

T- 883 Well, let’s be realistic here, the characters weren’t set-based, the voice acting was wooden, and they started on Mask of Light, and not the original 2001 storyline.

[@HeadsetGuy]

Oh my God, it's so hard to hear #1 nowadays...

[@sgtsierra1]

1:06 OF COURSE!!

[@pripdipstick]

Hey TTV folks. I'd like to point out that I've noticed you banning a lot of topics, I get your reasoning, as you want people to write only conversations. It's not completely bad, as stuff like the first spam, but you're being too controlling. That's my opinion, and I'd imagine many others.
