      I think Bionicle's best actual gun was the Toa Inika's. The rest just didn't work that well. The compressor gun and the glatorian gun weren't bad, but Inika's was perfect.

    In all honesty, I can't help but giggle at Carapar's sped-up swagger walk, with the clear expression of "Get the fuck of out the way, that mask is mine," written on his face.

      @helikos1 9 років тому +40

      Actually instead of "Get the fuck of out the way, that mask is mine," more like "Must help and protect Takadox". The latter had been hypnotizing him for years and resulted in decreased mental activity

    I love how they make the Barraki fighting tooth and nail in this commercial, but in the Piraka one, they made them look like they got along, when the Piraka were the most dysfunctional team ever.

      The Barraki did eventually fracture, though... They were tricked into infighting by Hewkii and Takadox was eventually outed as a traitor.

      The Piraka are the most functional group of backstabbing traitors I've ever seen in fiction
      They constantly try and to betray and kill each other and tell each other that they hate they other and yet just stick together and get over those past betrayals instantly just to start plotting again

      but yeah, the commercials back then were awesome. i mean, Lego actually started the band Cryoshell so they have people to make their commercial songs.
      anyway, in the german version of the new Bionicle commercial, this skull guy raises an army of skeletons. doesnt seem like a problem, right? well, *WRONG!!* the translation got f*cked up and now its said that instead of raising the army as u normally raise an army of skeletons, he raises them as children. yeah, this huge difference is solely based on a translation mistake (yay, languages).

  • @IRAMantisShrimp
    @IRAMantisShrimp 9 років тому +318

    It took forever for me to figure it out, but I finally discovered what the hell Takadox is.
    So Ehlek (Green) is supposed to be an electric eel, Pridak (White) is a shark, Kalmah
    (red) is a squid, Mantax (black) is a manta ray, Carapar (brown) is a crab...Takadox (blue) is supposed to be a Mantis Shrimp. Not the 'basher' Mantis Shrimps like the Peacock Mantis Shrimp, but a 'spearer' variation, the kind that fishermen iconically refer to as a 'thumb splitter' because it attacks with such force that it can cut your thumb open if mishandled. No other animal in deep sea biology has that profile.

    • @ToaAntan
      @ToaAntan 9 років тому +39

      It would explain why he's the sit and wait type of hunter. Mantis Shrimp are some of the most patient aquatic hunters around.

      GENESISCentral1 He didn't die. His name is Dekar, a Po-Matoran from Mahri Nui. The Ignika transformed him into a new Hydraxon because it needed a guardian. The old Hydraxon was a jailer of the pit and Order of Mata Nui member, he died when the Great Cataclysm happened (actually heavily injured by the earthquake and finished off by Takadox). Dekar-Version of Hydraxon wanted to destroy the mask, but in the end he gave it to the Toa Mahri, just to keep it away from him.

  • @legionbeast
    @legionbeast 10 років тому +179

    The thing about Bionicle that was incredible was that it was a progressing story with a point to reach. A beginning and an end. it was also a VERY mature storyline. Many characters died, many were tortured, enslavement, betrayal, and a foe who orchestrated events over a massive timespan and nearly succeeded in having a full victory.
    However, the fact is, with such a story, it needed to have an ending lest it drag out and become beaten to death.
    The result is something we can look back on and say. "Yeah, that was incredible..." Shame that the games were not as good as the story or figures.

One day they become so power hungry they challenge Mata Nui (God) until the Brotherhood of Makuta (who at the time were Mata Nui's protectors) defeat them. Once defeated they get jailed in The Pit, an underwated prision located in the depths of the ocean that contanied a mutagen liquid that transformes these once handsome rulers into the horrorific sea creatures you see in these videos.
      Once the Great Cataclysm happens (Bionicle's version of judgment day) these guys manage to escape The Pit and kill their jailer, Hydraxon, on the way.

      Mine too. Loved Bionicles. I actually got into them because McDonald's was advertising the Inika as their happy meal theme back in like 2006 or something. Thought they looked so cool, and Jaller was my first one. Just the box art looked so epic. Funny how much Bionicle impacted my childhood.

    "For centuries, the deepest part of the seas has been shrouded in mysteries and superstition"
    Crazy to think looking back on Bionicle as an adult that the 2007 arc took place not too far from where the 2001-2003 storyline took place, but underwater hence the organic sea armies the Barraki commanded in the lore as opposed to the man-made "Rahi" we had previously been accustomed to. Even crazier was that Mahri Nui was actually a metaphor for a blood clot that the Toa Mahri needed to destroy to return the piece of Mata Nui's chest dome (Voya Nui) to its rightful place.

    When I was a kid I loved this because it was my favorite toys coming alive, but I can appreciate it so much more now for way more reasons. The shot of Mantax rising up and attacking Takadox is gold, as is the continuous shot of following Carapar's squid. Why couldn't we have gotten scenes like these in the movies?

    It brings tears to my eyes knowing that Bionicle may never truly return to it's former glory. That we will never likely have beautiful advertisements like this, a rich and engaging universe filled to the brim with memorable characters, all so unique from one another. I hope that maybe one day, we will see Bionicle return to glory, or maybe some other franchise see the same success.

      I did like a taste of the grittier tones that came in around the Voya Nui arc but I still loved most the more mystical ambient feeling of the first few arcs. It's what got me into the franchise back then. I'm not seeing much of that from the recent trailers.

    2007 sets were some of the best BIONICLE ever made, but the Squid Launcher seriously sucked, functionality wise. They were terrible.
    Although on a technical level, Hahli's middle claw being vertical while the other two are bent is annoying, it's also pretty funny- Hahli doesn't have time to fight the Barraki so she's just gonna flip 'em off instead. XD
    Fucking loved '07. Hopefully BIONICLE 2015's take on the series will grow to offer more memorable and unique sets like these. >.

    prefering to play on the mysteries of the unknown.

      This animation is canon, it's a vision sent to Dekar by the Ignika.
      Dekar then found the Ignika then the Ignika transformed Dekar into a clone of Hydraxon to be a guardian for it, erasing all of his memories as Dekar while the real Hydraxon was stuck on the Red Star.
      Takadox was confused, as HE killed Hydraxon, the other Barraki were also confused as hell. They attempted to prove that Dekar-Hydraxon was not the real Hydraxon but he brushed it off, defeating them and their armies by himself.
