I got the whole Mahri collection a couple of months ago, and I think each one is cool in their own way, get them all if you can.

And yeah, Maxilos and the 08 sets are awesome

You can even phone in your order if you have to at S@H, I order from them at least once a month and I've been able to get a hold of them as late as 11 PM Eastern.
And yes, they fixed the lime plastic syndrome with the new parts, all of the joints have been remolded with more squared off sockets to prevent breaking and wearing out.

Damn, we must have got the old stock, then. Lime parts cracked straight away alright

if you have any problems with the guns fill them with water then load them it works a lot beater.

I saw that they had been redone, but I didn't know about the socket modifications.

Yeah, I think I've kinda gone on a BIONICLE binge (evidence of this is how I spell BIONICLE in all caps, as I beleive it should be)

I found a neat gallery on one of my old favorite sites, this one. I've also visited BIONICLEstory.com to read up on all I've missed. (Matoro dies!?)

I'm really looking forward to these new 2008 sets. The only one that dosen't quite fill my expectations is Kopaka. That mask and lack of sheild just make him look too much like Metru-Nuju to me. (at least he still has his sword as a bayonette)

Semi-on-topic: Does anyone know of a site that has all the old flash movies of the Toa Nuva (after losing their elements) that were done in the same style as the MNOLG? (first one)

Plus, I love Takanuva. I've seen leaked pics of his new form, and I love it. Plus, Dark Mirror is awesome.

Man, I did enjoy the CGI film. Need to go Netflix the sequel(s?), then I need to spend about an hour on Wikipedia learning about 'em.

Sounds like these guys have considerably more characterization and backstory than I realized.

He's getting an uprade, too? Have there been more leaked pics of the other Nuva? What's Dark Mirror?

That's what I love about BIONICLE, the story.

It's like the story came first, and they just made toys for it. (not the case, just example) The characters, adventures and events are awesome.

Glad to see you're getting back into Bionicle collecting.

I got some of the original Toa Mata/Toa Olda for sale if you want them.

And yes, Bionicle is awesome.

Thanks, but no thanks. I'm quite happy with my modified Toa Nuva.
