User blog:Eeneend/9: Bionicle Investigated

When looking at this wiki, we see the only thing we all share; Bionicle. If we look at the history of the Bionicle sets, we clearly can separate four main era's. The first Bionicle sets show us that Bionicle's roots are in Lego Technic, on the very first canisters was acctually written that it was Lego Technic, and at the bottom, you could read the name "Bionicle." The sets didn't change much until 2004, when the got a bodybuild which was entirely different from the ealier body builds, the story moved to antoher island. I call this the start of the second era. The second era came to an end in 2006, when the Piraka struck the stores, they introduced a entirely new way of building. But alsothe third era came to an end, altought very recently, in 2010, with the coming of the Bionicle Stars. As we can see, every time when a new technique, or idea is going to be released, Lego first takes it to the test. Below is a short list of connections between idea's:


 * Slizers/Throwbots/Roboriders - Bionicle
 * Takanuva's mask that was connected with a regular stick - Masks of the Toa Metru
 * Sidewards arm movement used in rebuild Matoran - Sidewards arm movement used in Rahkshi.
 * The posable knee used in the Rakhshi - Knee used in Toa Metru
 * Separated feet used in Rahkshi - Separated feet used in Toa Metru
 * Double-funtional weapons used in Toa Nuva - Double-functional weapons used in Toa Metru
