Hi, I'm Mintaka. I've been interested in Bionicle for a long time. During its initial run I wasn't really old enough to fully appreciate it until it was nearly over, but I was born in 2001 so it's basically my birthright. As of late I've begun obsessing over it again, and started to try and collect many of the old sets that I missed out on initially. Many of the sets that I acquired while the franchise was still alive have been disassembled and scattered, and recently I've been trying to re-assemble them from what parts I still have. However, many of them were from 2008-2010, thus many of the parts have either cracked or broken completely, due to the notoriously brittle joints that came into print at the time.

Of course I am also very interested in the lore of the franchise. I have browsed this wiki extensively in the past, but only just recently made an account when I happened upon an act of vandalism. As long as I am a part of this wiki I will do my best to help to maintain it as a reliable source of information on everything Bionicle.

My favorite Bionicle sets of all time (in no particular order) are the six Toa Mata, the 2001 Rahi (Tarakava in particular), Cahdok & Gahdok, The 2003 Titans, The Barraki, and Nocturn. As you may notice below I am still working on acquiring some of these.

My current collection:

This list is as exhaustive as possible, although I cannot gaurantee that something hasn't slipped my mind there and again. Sets marked "FH" were originally owned by me, all others were gotten second-hand. Most sets from before 2006 I got second-hand in recent times, and almost all sets afterwards I got first-hand back when the franchise was still running. I am constantly making updates to this section as my collection grows and my wishlist shrinks.

2001:


 * All six Toa Mata
 * All six Turaga
 * Tohunga Jala
 * Tohunga Matoro (w/ Bamboo disk)
 * Tohunga Takua (assembled via Bricklink parts)
 * Nui-Rama
 * Tarakava
 * Copper Huna of Victory (partly translucent version)
 * Orange Vahi
 * Trans-Neon-Green Miru
 * Green Pakari, blue Kakama, brown Miru
 * Dark gray Komau

2002:


 * Cahdok & Gahdok
 * A handful of Krana and Krana Va
 * All six silver Kanohi for the Toa Mata
 * All six golden Kanohi for the Toa Mata

 * Visorak Suukorak (FH; may have been my first Bionicle set. I must have been four or five at the time)

 * Toa Hagah Iruini

(At this point it's simpler to just specify which sets I got second-hand rather than first-hand. Sets marked "SH" were gotten second-hand, all others were gotten first-hand. Most first-hand sets have been re-assembled from old parts, or may still not be completely re-assembled yet.)

My Wishlist:

Someday I hope to perhaps have a complete collection of every set ever released and then some, but that day is likely distant. For now, these are the ones I want to add to my collection the most. They consist mostly of Titans / Warriors / Special sets. My primary goal for the time being is to amass every set specifically from 2001-2003, as these are my favorite years of Bionicle and I was not yet old enough to appreciate them when they were occurring. Items marked as "P" are a priority.
