New sets discussion (2014/15/16/17)

I like that there's an entry that's just called "Fire Suitcase," no set number. It sounds like something out of an Axe Cop theme. "Skull Spiders" also.

I especially like how "Fire Suitcase" is marketed as a juniors set. Flaming suitcases: for kids!

Is there anyone in the Bionicle age group who was even alive when these characters were around?

It's going to be interesting, that's for sure. I've been into Bionicle since it was first released back in grade school and I dunno what to think.

"Gorilla Grodd Goes Bananas"

Well that would be sorely disappointing.

So judging by the set list, it's not a Saturnalia line, but the Friends style still seems to be true.

Also good god they're finally doing a new tan AAT. That will be a great parts pack, and hopefully look good too.

Probably not for the current "appropriate" age group: it will have the element of being a 'new' theme for them, while the actual bonkle fandom of TFOL/AFOL/whatever hideous shapeless mass that group with awful opinions has bloated into will probably pop some nostalgia boners. It's a pretty smart way to double-dip both ends of the spectrum, gotta hand it to them.

Well, it's been 13 years, so probably not.

personally I'm indifferent about the line.

So I was 11 when they came out. I remember having the Ice dude because he was badass. Never really got too into them though.

Pirates are coming back. Oh yeah.

Good. I'm sick of all the ninjas and razgrizzlies and robots and stuff.

[Kommander Ken]

I don't know a damned thing about Minecraft, but that dragon set looks pretty awesome.

Also good god they're finally doing a new tan AAT.

But is it going to be tan?

[Gorthaff]

Well in the CLOan wars it was friggin blue, and everyone seems to be craving that crap, so they might stick with blue, to avoid booty bothered ten year olds.

Yeah, after Episode two, the Droids were now "Separatist" and all their shit got painted blue...
Pain in the ass for me, because now I've got a Blue STAP that doesn't match my Fleet.

The pics I saw were tannish-orange. I remember the 2008 one and lusting after it, but we'll see about the new one.
