    Dang, are we going to get another giant Ninjago modular every couple years?? I'm not complaining; I certainly don't have funds or space for all of them, but always excited to see a new one!

    I’d feel for the little radio. Pretty sure that’s the easiest thing to feel in the bag.

    I found the Space duo, 2 Falconers and one orc at retail when they first came out. After more trips couldn’t find orcs anywhere so I bought 6 off of someone on Facebook.

    I still haven’t seen either Minifig Series 23 or 24 in stores. :/ Luckily I was able to get them all off Amazon (lucked out and got two complete sets each time) but I’m still hoping I see 24 on shelves as I’d like to pick up a few extras… definitely want another Falconer to put with my Castle stuff, another spaceman or two, and another Carrot Guy for my kid (who for some reason loves that one).

    Look who arrived! :) 

    IMG_20230131_195430_138.jpg

    It's so... Wow, it's really hard to put into words the feeling of both nostalgia and surrealism of having a new Bionicle set in 2023. It's so odd to think that just a couple weeks ago I didn't even know this existed and yet here he is in the flesh... Err, ABS plastic.

    The mask prints are sublime, they have this sorta reflective sheen on the eyes to emulate the light piping of the OGs (with translucent plates on the back of the head that do the job of a brainstalk), and even without technic they managed to carry several details of Mata Tahu over, such as the pistons in the torso, the Amogus pieces on the shoulders to emulate the old technic cup joint, the ball on his chest and the cheese slopes on his sword arm.

    This is also the first time Takua has actually gotten a toy of his 'diminished' form. As he never got one back in 01 (you could make one with an extra Jala but he wouldn't get a toy until 03).

    @OmegaScourge Don't quote me on this but I found him by feeling for the Babbo (the head is smaller than a normal minifig) and helmet, you will feel a eounded object with a hole on the side. The robot has a spiky helmet and the rex you can feel the bumps for the eyes.

    I've found some at Fred Meyers (the two locations I've been to had some).

    As @Batman said, the radio (or walkie-talkie) is the best part to find. It's like a plate with two studs on one side and an antenna at the end. Very easily recognisable. I found three spacemen (two for me and one for my GF) that way.

    Alternatively, the gastanks. Two thin cilinders.

    Risky is a 2x1 tile, but this part also comes with another figure so you have to verify with other parts: two 2x1 tiles is the soccer referee, one 2x1 tile could be the spaceman.

    Holy hell please be true!

    I'd buy the shit out of the Deku Tree.

    Hell, I'm now even considering two if it really can be swapped between OoT and BOTW.

    Pictures are now in circulation too, so these are pretty much confirmed to either releasing within the next few years, or were being seriously considered at some point for production.
