Then Hero Factory took over the fame for like *_a month_* and then the whole "lego" robotic figures era ended. Mata Nui, we will never forgetti. _Rip Bionicle._
Hehhehe hohohoe I think he's talking about age not quantity of bionicles... I used to build them when I was 10... without any instructions. (And succeeded)
Hey Butterbuns, and everyone else actually: Regardless of whether you're a casual fan of Bionicle, a lore junky or just a poor sod who had no idea what they were before watching this video, there is a genuinely good Bionicle game you absolutely need to play: The Mata Nui Online Game, (MNOG) It was one of the first games made for the franchise so you don't need to do a shit ton of research before playing to make sense of it, everything is explained as you play and talk to people By modern standards, it's basically a walking simulator with a couple of super basic point and click puzzles but it does what it does extraordinary well: build atmosphere and give the characters some real charm Those really are the best words for it: atmospheric and charming. It's widely regarded as the quintessential Bionicle experience by 'hard-core' fans, despite its simplicity
Oh, and it's also piss easy to find online and play It came from an era when 'online' meant 'browser based' not 'connected to every major country on the planet with tens of thousands of players'
If you haven't found it already: You can find MNOG and MNOG II plus basically every single other piece of secondary media ever created for Bionicle on 'biomediaproject.com' but be warned: pretty much everyone hates MNOG II because you have to grind, which is pretty weird for a point&click, I'd recomened just watching a walkthrough, like MNOG with Meso
Hey, I used to be a staff member for BMP! (they forgot to take my name off of the active list O_o) Don't forget about the fan-made expansion(?) to MNOG based around the Bohrok. Although short, it ain't too shabby! :D
I remember these as a kid. *THESE WERE THE SHIIIIET* I collected so many of them sadly once I got older my mom threw all my toys away because they took up too much space.
I am alive If you're curious as to where Nier Automata For Beginners is, I lost like half of the project because one of my drives crashed and Im having some PC issues so that set me back a lot :V in the mean time hope you enjoy this!
"It was like build-a-bear metal gear solid." As a Bionicle fan from the first series of Toa, there's a hilarious, spot-on beauty to this that actually brought a tear to my eye. 10 points, my friend. 10 points.
For some reason I remember that commercial using "So you had a bad day" instead. I mean for a long time, that song was just "That song from that Bionicle commercial that was shot in a parking lot at night" to me.
@sciencegiraffe Yes, the Grate Beings, the local mad scientists/demi gods of the Bionicle universe made most life basing it on Protodermis a liquid metal like substance that had the possibility to combine both organic and inorganic matter. [Does the anime glasses push up.]
You see, it was from this Bionicle movie (it was Mask of Light) that I got the following quote. I didn't even see the whole movie, this was just the biggest takeaway for me: "Arrogance can fell GIANTS!" I also remember seeing a Mega Man anime (battle network probably) playing on tv where he's riding on radio waves in the sky or something and something about accidently slipping into visible frequencies he said while talking to a robot wolf on a screen on his arm or something. This was before I knew what Mega Man was so I went outside.
Bruh if you thought the comics were the edgiest, my 10-year-old mind came up with characters and stories so edgy you'd swear it was a Sin City meets Gundam Wing game for the Sega Saturn. I didn't just rearrange characters either, I was able to make Bionicles fit into other Bionicles like the Hulkbuster armor from Avengers 2. I created horrifying monstrocities from some Hellraiser nightmare. I created battlefields the likes never seen since the Somme. It was fuckin awesome.
+westc0astm3tal AH! I DID THAT TOO! Let me tell you the full story of one of the stories I came up. Basically, it was about a ancient Toa named Maltron hunting down and killing a bunch of enemy Bionicles or turning them to his side, or dying and being maimed.
Ahh the memories, the saddest part is when I remember that not long after I got a CD player, I would hook it to a small speaker and play every Linkin Park song we had burned to a disk that I could while building both the Bionicles and the back story’s.
I was legit going through youtube the other and found one of Bun's videos,(dream drop for beginners) and I thought, "man it's been a while since she's posted anything. I hope nothing bad's happened." Turns out I just had to wait a day to learn that yes something bad did happen! (Sorry to hear about Nier, girl)
6:42 funnily enough we may just get all that and more. A group of fans called team Kanohi are working on a whole Bionicle fangame called Bionicle: masks of power. They even got cryoshell (the band that made a lot of music for the commercials after Lego couldnt afford to keep AAR around) to collaborate with a popular music artist in the community (essenger) to make a new song for the trailer!
I remember a video game on the bionicle website in the early 2000's where you're one of the water people and it was a cinematic point and click adventure and as a 5 year old it blew my mind. The lore is crazy intense haha.
It's kinda sad that the free browser games were honestly the best Bionicle games there were, especially FRICKIN' MATA NUI ONLINE GAME. Also, I know this was about the games and not any of the rest of the Bionicle sets or merch, but I gotta admit, I was expecting _some_ kind of comment or remark that acknowledged G2's existence.
She did... Or at least, she showed a picture of the G2 Toa and said the franchise spanned multiple generations... :/ I played the Mata Nui Online Game when I was, like, 7 and had no real grasp on what BIONICLE even was. It was still the coolest thing ever to me. :D
It still baffles me that some of my/the TTV audience was only 2 when MNOLG first released. I was 11 for crying out loud. Kids these days will never know what it was like to play through that on dial-up.
I tried to play the MNOG 2 on a saved archive... That game has a LOT of grinding. "Hey, get four seaweed and we'll give you thread. You need two threads for rope, and four ropes for a sailing kit. BETTER COLLECT THAT SEAWEED AND SHELLS!"
G2 had some of the best Bionicle sets ever designed (as well as some pretty bad ones). I wouldn't say it was just "fan bait" though. And I certainly wouldn't say it "worked" when the line got canceled, presumably, early.
*shotgun noise * "Oh god its sentient!" You had me in literal tears like holy shit I actually had to pause the video and take a second to recover from that because of how had that made me laugh. Christ that was good.
I still have the original collection of Bionicles my parents knew that these things would end up being a big deal one day so they got me for Christmas one time I think like 3 or 4 of each individual Bionicle set complete along with those little mini versions it is so awesome
Jesus Christ finally a popular youtuber talking about Bonkles. I mean BIONICLE. THOSE WERE GREAT!!!! So sad that they died ... TWICE CAUSE IT GOT A REBOOT
SatellaChannel that's not true. They died because they felt the story got too convoluted for new fans. The series had been around for years and had a lot of complicated lore. So they dropped it and did hero factory.
Traveler's Tales? TRAVELER'S TALES? I THOUGHT THESE GAMES WERE MADE BY TELLTALE AND THEY JUST SWITCHED TO STORY GAMES FOR WHATEVER REASON! MY WHOLE LIFE IS A LIE!
Before I dig into this juicy video I want to say, yes I remember the Bionicle Games. Specifically a browser based point and click adventure game that I could never beat because I was too young to really understand everything. I still have some Bionicle toys for pete's sake. So thank you for this wonderful little trip back in time. EDIT: It was called Mata Nui: The Online Game, help me.
You’re like that one girl in high school that I wanted to hang out with because we liked the same shit, but everyone was a highschooler and awkward so we never got past nodding at each other from across the classroom.
Don't know how the heck I found this channel, but I'll subscribe to anything with nostalgia for me and pretty good humor about weird lego robots from my childhood becoming sentient.
Hassan Ghanim licensed property, ambitious ideas like incorporating coop in character action is still risky business. They're trying things and fortunately they had the power to come back from failure attempts and learn from it for the future. Some developers would have been sunk after that bad of a fuck up but they still got that shine, and it shows with their polish found in Nier Automata, they have the power but have to use it wisely.
TheSplitspitter FromSoftware will single-handedly turned Bionicle from All-Ages Rating to M-Rating, with lovely casts such as: Prideful Father, Sun-praising bro, Big hat mage, that mouthful bastard, and ofc the most memorable of all... .... those pinwheels
The Barraki were the shit. Best line out of the franchise. 10/10 would buy them all again if it wasn’t for my huge collection I can’t make myself get rid of
My mom pretty much tricked me into giving away my Bionicles: see she promised some of them in pieces to a friend of her that had granchildrens cause "You grown up, you don't need toys" and i was distressed because you can't just give a part of your pieces, what if you want to build something and you miss a piece? the only logical choice at the time was "either i d'ont give any, or i give all" and upon inssisting i gave all. Kinda regretting it now, i mean i would not play witn tem but dammit i had a Maxilos Titan and he was the BEST build i experienced. At least we still have the LORE.
I had Bionicle Heroes on 3 game systems. The PS2, GB, and DS. My favorite was on console but the DS version was also really good and the Gameboy one I remembered to be enjoyable.
Kids of today dont care much about action figures and have no clues of what the hell are those things actually. They rotten on shelves, unable to compete with Star Wars and the Marvel heroes. Old fans despite the use of CCBS (Hero Factory) parts and look back to their own collection. This is not Lego who killed it, Bionicle died from old age.
Thank you for spreading awareness of Bionicle. I have been a fan of Bionicle since I was first introduced to the series at around 5 years old in 2005 and have been one of the few who have grown to enjoy the lore, toys and everything about it and still fondly remember and talk about it until this day. Bionicle was basically my childhood along with club penguin and pokemon.
I hate to break it to ya, buddy, but if you believe that there are only a "few who have grown to enjoy the lore, toys and everything about it" you are wildly mistaken. There are sites, TH-cam channels, podcasts, and more with thousands upon thousands of fans/followers/subscribers. The Bionicle community is frickin' huge.
I remember playing and liking these games when I was younger, but they have definitely aged poorly. The Mata Nui Online game is the only game in the Bionicle series I genuinely love, even to this day.
As a kid, i loved Bionicle, i still have all four movies. But I remember having a surgery surgery after the line got discontinued and my parents got me a Bionicle care package with the last movie, Bionicle Heroes, Metru Nui Nuju, and a bunch of the Cryoshell songs from the commercials, and I was a happy lad through my recovery.
So glad I'm subscribed because seeing any public acknowledgement of the awesomeness that is Bionicle fills me with the sweet nectar of a vindicated childhood! The single frame of Bionicle in the Lego Movie made me insanely happy. Ages 8 to 16 of my life were utterly soaked in anything and everything Bionicle. So upset when the bulk of my collection got stolen a few years back. Am I rambling? Yeah, but who cares because BIONICLE!!!
I bought a second PSP so i could play monster hunter co op with my brother. I could also duplicate items with the second psp so i didn't need to go farming for honey for my megapotions.
I read all the main books in elementary school (stopped right at the metro nui arc with the piracka after the toa metro got the beast poison powers and were transformed into ...... I forgot the name) Dope Franchise. I wish I never have away my bionicle piece to goodwill..... my mother definetly made sure most of my childhood belongings disappeared
holy shit, this is the first video on this channel I've seen and I already friggin' LOVE YOU! this is the What I like in gaming retrospectives videos, really funny and very clever. Nice work!
"A open world Bionicle bionicle game would probably never happen." What about Bionicle masks of power Game, it's an open world bionicle game in unreal 4, and it's free, what about that game. 🤔
Fun fact, I didn't know the song title of that commercial until about 10 years later when I was a freshman. Every time that I listen to it, I get VERY fond memories of that commercial
Fun fact: if you stay still for a long time in Bionicles heroes your character will turn around and knock your screen or take off his head. I played this game quite a bit when little and that's one of the few things I remember.
I still remember begging my Aunt to buy me the first Bionicle game for ps2. She ended up getting it for me and I couldn't play it till I went back home at the end of the weekend. Loved every minute of playing it as a kid and honestly I still find it fun even today to an extent
I cannot truthfully say because I am heavily biased. Bionicle has been a part of my life non-stop for the past 16 years, even through the five years after Bionicle generation one got canceled and we thought we'd never see any again. Are you lacking? Probably not, but I'm obligated to believe your life would be richer with it.
I know this video was from 4 years ago, but I wish I had known about your channel when this video dropped because I used to live in VA Beach and I had every Bionicle up to the multiverse series.
This video is a clever scheme to get Bionicles from your fans.
I respect it.
And who could blame her? I'd do the same, I ONLY HAVE OVER 100 OF THESE DAMN TOYS, THERE ARE STILL SOME I DON'T HAVE, I NEED SPARE PARTS, HELP!!1!1
KZ it was great
I bought her these games and even I'm compelled to send in some even though I love them with all my heart.
I do have a few multiples though...
KZ hi monokuma wussup
KZ your not getting my barraki they will stay in their box.
Anyone remember the bionicle movies?,watched those so much as a kid haha
RamZaes the second one was the best in my opinion. I loved them all! :D
RamZaes Mask of Light best Movie i am 20 now and rewatched it 2 months ago
RamZaes yeah i remember.
Same!!!
I rewatched Mask Of Light recently and no less than 5 minutes into it I suddenly realised it was Kiddies First Lord Of The Rings.
"OH GOD IT'S SENTIENT"
U mean "Oh Mata Nui is Sentient" ? ;) ok ok jokes aside tho XD
Must be talking about Morbuzahk.
Then Hero Factory took over the fame for like *_a month_* and then the whole "lego" robotic figures era ended. Mata Nui, we will never forgetti. _Rip Bionicle._
MistyEyedDragon ohh yea hero factory that Shit existed once and destroyed my dream of more new bionicles Back when i was...dunno im 19 now...×π...math
19? your weakness disgusty me. I had atleast 200 (not just the toa)!
Hehhehe hohohoe I think he's talking about age not quantity of bionicles... I used to build them when I was 10... without any instructions. (And succeeded)
You know they rebooted Bionicle right? Just for two years though.
oh god, bionicle stars was the worst way to send off one of legos most popular brands...
Hey Butterbuns, and everyone else actually:
Regardless of whether you're a casual fan of Bionicle, a lore junky or just a poor sod who had no idea what they were before watching this video, there is a genuinely good Bionicle game you absolutely need to play:
The Mata Nui Online Game, (MNOG)
It was one of the first games made for the franchise so you don't need to do a shit ton of research before playing to make sense of it, everything is explained as you play and talk to people
By modern standards, it's basically a walking simulator with a couple of super basic point and click puzzles but it does what it does extraordinary well: build atmosphere and give the characters some real charm
Those really are the best words for it: atmospheric and charming.
It's widely regarded as the quintessential Bionicle experience by 'hard-core' fans, despite its simplicity
Oh, and it's also piss easy to find online and play
It came from an era when 'online' meant 'browser based' not 'connected to every major country on the planet with tens of thousands of players'
Where's the sequel tho???
If you haven't found it already: You can find MNOG and MNOG II plus basically every single other piece of secondary media ever created for Bionicle on 'biomediaproject.com' but be warned: pretty much everyone hates MNOG II because you have to grind, which is pretty weird for a point&click, I'd recomened just watching a walkthrough, like MNOG with Meso
Hey, I used to be a staff member for BMP! (they forgot to take my name off of the active list O_o) Don't forget about the fan-made expansion(?) to MNOG based around the Bohrok. Although short, it ain't too shabby! :D
Yeah! That isn't official? Why do I remember it so vividly? :ike where was it originally posted?
I remember these as a kid.
*THESE WERE THE SHIIIIET*
I collected so many of them sadly once I got older my mom threw all my toys away because they took up too much space.
RETRO™ well, the same happened to me. It was shame, but what can i do? :,)
MY GOD THAT'S HORRIBLE
my mom burned my dragon ball manga collection after I enter boarding school
have you caught a body yet retro
+akiraguy Oh god... RIP akiraguy's entertainment
"Do you remember Bionicle--"
GURL.
YES.
SAME. I'M STILL MOURNING ITS CANCELLATION(S)
YAS
I never forgot.
Never forget.
CHILDHOOD
I am alive
If you're curious as to where Nier Automata For Beginners is, I lost like half of the project because one of my drives crashed and Im having some PC issues so that set me back a lot :V
in the mean time hope you enjoy this!
SuperButterBuns I love you please go on a date with me!
:V smh my head bunbun
Oof, I can see that. I love your videos Buns, keep it up. Also, your voice is as smooth as butter.
Understandable have a nice day
*B l e s s ™*
"It was like build-a-bear metal gear solid."
As a Bionicle fan from the first series of Toa, there's a hilarious, spot-on beauty to this that actually brought a tear to my eye. 10 points, my friend. 10 points.
Oh man, that move along commercial gave me serious flashbacks to being a little kid.
RealGamerManz Me too, I love that beautiful edginess!
It's called clinical depression
That and the toa Mhari commercial with crashed by Daughtry
It gave me flashbacks to late 2005 when I was in Sixth grade obsessed with playing Jak 2.
For some reason I remember that commercial using "So you had a bad day" instead. I mean for a long time, that song was just "That song from that Bionicle commercial that was shot in a parking lot at night" to me.
*Looks at the title and folds his hands together.* "You have my attention, Miss Buns."
Buns: Bio--
Me: *CRASHES THROUGH CEILING*
Buns: sWEET BUTTER ROLLS MAN.
Me: YES, I AM A FAN OF THE ROBOT PEOPLE. THEY SHALL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN.
Technically cyborgs and including the race of agori and glatorians too
Biomechanical.
OneColdRepublican Man I miss Bionicle.
@sciencegiraffe
Yes, the Grate Beings, the local mad scientists/demi gods of the Bionicle universe made most life basing it on Protodermis a liquid metal like substance that had the possibility to combine both organic and inorganic matter. [Does the anime glasses push up.]
You see, it was from this Bionicle movie (it was Mask of Light) that I got the following quote. I didn't even see the whole movie, this was just the biggest takeaway for me: "Arrogance can fell GIANTS!" I also remember seeing a Mega Man anime (battle network probably) playing on tv where he's riding on radio waves in the sky or something and something about accidently slipping into visible frequencies he said while talking to a robot wolf on a screen on his arm or something. This was before I knew what Mega Man was so I went outside.
Bruh if you thought the comics were the edgiest, my 10-year-old mind came up with characters and stories so edgy you'd swear it was a Sin City meets Gundam Wing game for the Sega Saturn.
I didn't just rearrange characters either, I was able to make Bionicles fit into other Bionicles like the Hulkbuster armor from Avengers 2. I created horrifying monstrocities from some Hellraiser nightmare. I created battlefields the likes never seen since the Somme.
It was fuckin awesome.
+westc0astm3tal AH! I DID THAT TOO! Let me tell you the full story of one of the stories I came up.
Basically, it was about a ancient Toa named Maltron hunting down and killing a bunch of enemy Bionicles or turning them to his side, or dying and being maimed.
Same
Ahh the memories, the saddest part is when I remember that not long after I got a CD player, I would hook it to a small speaker and play every Linkin Park song we had burned to a disk that I could while building both the Bionicles and the back story’s.
Woah edgy.....
Technically Lego did make a bionicle Armour called the exo toa
I had a whole collection.
And then a flood hit
I feel sad for you loss
The Beat my parents gave mine away. i had about 30 sets
F for the bionicles lost for no good reason...
Was that event called “the great cataclysm”
I still have 'em. Over 100 different sets
I had Bionicle heroes. The only thing I remember was that the audio files were corrupted. And that there was a playground for the defeated villains.
I was legit going through youtube the other and found one of Bun's videos,(dream drop for beginners) and I thought, "man it's been a while since she's posted anything. I hope nothing bad's happened." Turns out I just had to wait a day to learn that yes something bad did happen! (Sorry to hear about Nier, girl)
reading this made me think shed died
Wo else still has a chest full of them in the house?
I DO!
No.
I have multiple shelves displaying them to the masses of less than one person a month that come into my room.
Oh please... I have several chests.
Yep
Yep
I want a bionicle RPG where six toa (or more) work together as a group for the entire game.
I'm VERY late but, Bionicle: Maze of Shadows on GBA.
Have you heard of the fan rpg bible game *BIONICLE MASKS OF POWER!*
Toa? Work together? Ridiculous.
@@Xenronnify have we lost our unity l?
I would like for Lego to hire a few great righters, and revamp the Bionicle story for a mature audience, maybe releasing a few sets here and there.
6:42 funnily enough we may just get all that and more. A group of fans called team Kanohi are working on a whole Bionicle fangame called Bionicle: masks of power. They even got cryoshell (the band that made a lot of music for the commercials after Lego couldnt afford to keep AAR around) to collaborate with a popular music artist in the community (essenger) to make a new song for the trailer!
1:55 "It's like Build-a-Bear: Metal Gear Solid."
I'm crying😂
I remember a video game on the bionicle website in the early 2000's where you're one of the water people and it was a cinematic point and click adventure and as a 5 year old it blew my mind. The lore is crazy intense haha.
Kelly Hagerman i played that :o
Mata Nui Online Game II
www.templar.com/games/mnog/Player.html
Kelly Hagerman The chronicler games were fantastic!
i always pronounce it 'munawg' because the url "mnog"
It's kinda sad that the free browser games were honestly the best Bionicle games there were, especially FRICKIN' MATA NUI ONLINE GAME.
Also, I know this was about the games and not any of the rest of the Bionicle sets or merch, but I gotta admit, I was expecting _some_ kind of comment or remark that acknowledged G2's existence.
She did...
Or at least, she showed a picture of the G2 Toa and said the franchise spanned multiple generations... :/

G2 had some of the best Bionicle sets ever designed (as well as some pretty bad ones). I wouldn't say it was just "fan bait" though.
And I certainly wouldn't say it "worked" when the line got canceled, presumably, early.
You can have my Bionicles when you pry them from my cold dead hands.
Toa Taile same
*shotgun noise *
"Oh god its sentient!"
You had me in literal tears like holy shit I actually had to pause the video and take a second to recover from that because of how had that made me laugh. Christ that was good.
I still have the original collection of Bionicles my parents knew that these things would end up being a big deal one day so they got me for Christmas one time I think like 3 or 4 of each individual Bionicle set complete along with those little mini versions it is so awesome
If we clone nelson Mandela we can finally bring back bionicle
Browncheeze are you from Maskposting?
I hate how many people don't realize Bionicle was brought back.
And cancelled again
Anonymous Sour Cream You mean that train wreck known as "Hero Factory"? Wasn't NEARLY as good as the original.
Xero Shifts No, I'm talking about an actual Bionicle reboot.
Jesus Christ finally a popular youtuber talking about Bonkles. I mean BIONICLE. THOSE WERE GREAT!!!! So sad that they died ... TWICE CAUSE IT GOT A REBOOT
Ironically, videogames is what killed Bionicle (the golden age when action figures was all the rage is over).
SatellaChannel that's not true. They died because they felt the story got too convoluted for new fans. The series had been around for years and had a lot of complicated lore. So they dropped it and did hero factory.
"theres a ton of stuff in the bionicles universe that just wasnt utilized to its full potential"
holy shit never thought id hear that 😭
I know at least 70% of Bionicle lore
My respect goes out to you. My 12 year old ass sat half a summer vacation reading the bionicle wiki and I think I have about 15% figured out
Traveler's Tales?
TRAVELER'S TALES?
I THOUGHT THESE GAMES WERE MADE BY TELLTALE AND THEY JUST SWITCHED TO STORY GAMES FOR WHATEVER REASON! MY WHOLE LIFE IS A LIE!
Same!
Omg same
Nah Traveller's Tales actually makes good business decisions and has a competent staff
Tt
Travelers tales made the lego star wars 1 and 2 transformers the game
My childhood! Thanks Buns for reminding me about this!
Before I dig into this juicy video I want to say, yes I remember the Bionicle Games. Specifically a browser based point and click adventure game that I could never beat because I was too young to really understand everything. I still have some Bionicle toys for pete's sake. So thank you for this wonderful little trip back in time.
EDIT: It was called Mata Nui: The Online Game, help me.
Daily reminder that Mata Nui Online is still up
Mata Nui Online was EXCELLENT, I can't believe Buns didn't mention it
AKA the actual best Bionicle game
That's not a high bar to hit, but it's 100% correct.
Kinda sad how the first game, which was free is the best one and only fully canon one.
I literally have chests full of bionicles from my childhood. I loved making my own and making up a story to go with them
You’re like that one girl in high school that I wanted to hang out with because we liked the same shit, but everyone was a highschooler and awkward so we never got past nodding at each other from across the classroom.
Don't know how the heck I found this channel, but I'll subscribe to anything with nostalgia for me and pretty good humor about weird lego robots from my childhood becoming sentient.
The gods have blessed us, a buns video
Piraka ftw. Gimme some Skakdi.
Tahukan Go yo, Piraka.
I still remember those oooooold point and click adventure games.
www.templar.com/games/mnog/Player.html
bruh where's the second one?
My god... I remember these...
*flashback to awesome Bionicle movies, toys, stories made up by me, just Bionicle in general intensifies*
bionicle was a huge part of my childhood growing up, I still have a big toolbox full of them
These were my childhood, I literally still have a few left from the giant chest of them I used to keep.
Sam B. I have a lego car and motorcycle that i built when i was a kid. They sit right on top of my stereo.
I have more than I had growing up because I'm an adult with money and fuck society I want my bonkles
I don't have any from my childhood but I bought the new figures and re-bought Onua, Onua Nuva and 2x Nohvok.
Mask of Light best Movie
Soul Semblance it's horrible, but I still love it because of nostalgia.
The Legend Reborn is the best, second only to Journey to One.
/s
nope the second one is the best.
Man, y'all missing out on the third film. Web of Shadows was also pretty tight.
Kevin Rivera The humpback beyblade launcher was shoehorned right in. Super cool toy though
I like how often the solution to all our problems is hiring Platinum lol
that doesnt mean it will allways end up being good, look at TMNT game.
Hassan Ghanim licensed property, ambitious ideas like incorporating coop in character action is still risky business. They're trying things and fortunately they had the power to come back from failure attempts and learn from it for the future. Some developers would have been sunk after that bad of a fuck up but they still got that shine, and it shows with their polish found in Nier Automata, they have the power but have to use it wisely.
Maybe FromSoftware could do it.
TheSplitspitter FromSoftware will single-handedly turned Bionicle from All-Ages Rating to M-Rating, with lovely casts such as: Prideful Father, Sun-praising bro, Big hat mage, that mouthful bastard, and ofc the most memorable of all...
.... those pinwheels
"Build-A-Bear Metal Gear Solid" I fucking lost it. You're amazing
The soundtrack on Heroes was bomb. I have it on my phone and always listen to it
The Barraki were the shit. Best line out of the franchise. 10/10 would buy them all again if it wasn’t for my huge collection I can’t make myself get rid of
Kalmah is my favourite.
for me it would be a tie between pridak and ehlek, their builds were so fucking interesting to me.
Ehlek op
You are my queen bun. And I will serve you for the rest of my days.
ALL HAIL TO QUEEN BUN.
This is it,I have seen everything...
I'VE SEEN A CULT PRAISING A PIECE OF BREAD
Can I join the bread praising cult
I like Persona 5 nah join the pale Cult trust me
QUEEN BUN

Love to send you bionicles, but yknow
*MINE*
Yeah like bitch I'm still trying to finish my own collection now that I can afford it.
same.
Lol. True. If i had some, I wouldn't give it to anyone. Those figures are precious!
Same here
My mom pretty much tricked me into giving away my Bionicles: see she promised some of them in pieces to a friend of her that had granchildrens cause "You grown up, you don't need toys" and i was distressed because you can't just give a part of your pieces, what if you want to build something and you miss a piece? the only logical choice at the time was "either i d'ont give any, or i give all" and upon inssisting i gave all.
Kinda regretting it now, i mean i would not play witn tem but dammit i had a Maxilos Titan and he was the BEST build i experienced.
At least we still have the LORE.
I come back to this video nearly monthly to hear that "OH GOD IT"S SENTIENT" Joke and die laughing everytime
The lore was amazing
Bionicles DS was my shit
there was a cheat code to replace all gun sounds with a guy saying pew pew pew bwoooooooo wooooooo pew pew pew GOTY
I had Bionicle Heroes on 3 game systems. The PS2, GB, and DS. My favorite was on console but the DS version was also really good and the Gameboy one I remembered to be enjoyable.
That sounds painful *rimshot*
Bionicle heroes on the DS was the original doom but with bionicles
Heroes on DS wasn't that deep, but it had just the right flavour and amount of edge for me and I *loved* it.
Lego needs to bring this back
They did... then they killed off bionicle again, this time probably for good.
Kids of today dont care much about action figures and have no clues of what the hell are those things actually. They rotten on shelves, unable to compete with Star Wars and the Marvel heroes.
Old fans despite the use of CCBS (Hero Factory) parts and look back to their own collection.
This is not Lego who killed it, Bionicle died from old age.
They did.
For like 2 years then they cancelled it.
This franchise is my life and I love it
"Bionicles by Platinum" why must you taunt me with such a sweet dream?
She said that and I literally came.
Thank you for spreading awareness of Bionicle. I have been a fan of Bionicle since I was first introduced to the series at around 5 years old in 2005 and have been one of the few who have grown to enjoy the lore, toys and everything about it and still fondly remember and talk about it until this day. Bionicle was basically my childhood along with club penguin and pokemon.
I hate to break it to ya, buddy, but if you believe that there are only a "few who have grown to enjoy the lore, toys and everything about it" you are wildly mistaken. There are sites, TH-cam channels, podcasts, and more with thousands upon thousands of fans/followers/subscribers. The Bionicle community is frickin' huge.
I'm not giving you my Bionicles til you pry them from my cold, dead hands. O_O
I remember playing and liking these games when I was younger, but they have definitely aged poorly. The Mata Nui Online game is the only game in the Bionicle series I genuinely love, even to this day.
How could I ever forget
2:48 WE NEED TO GO DEEPER
HEY HEY HEY WOAH. Did you forget about the awesome MNOG (mata nui online game) or VNOG those were the best and they had good story (at least MNOG)
MNOG is the best Bionicle game by far dammit. Shame she didn't mention it.
Voya nui online game had a lot of running around but I still find it enjoyable to play
Obodobear I got stuck on one quest for years because I couldn't find the location to the goal in vnog.
Atomic Robo Tesla Prrrrrobably the ussal crab cave
I only did MNOG2, but it was great.
I always preferred the Mata Nui online games. The second one especially. They felt like an actual adventure.
FOR FREEDOM WE FLY
LEARN TO FLY, REACH THE SKY, LEGENDS WILL CARRY YOU
THOUSANDS OF MIIIIILES
TAKE A STAND, HOLD THE LAND, MAKE SURE THAT EVERYONE'S-
READY TO WIN, FIND THE SPEED, ALL YOU NEED, TEAM UP FOR BATTLE WE FLY. FLYYYYYYYYY
WE FLYYYYY! GRAVITY HURTS!!!
Gravity Hurts was and still is my favorite Bionicle song
I swear to God, I'm binge watching your videos and I'm loving it. Love your voice.
My cousins still have a big collection of these
Malachi Douglas I passed my collection to my nephew, dope stuff.
I recently found your channel from the dark souls beginners guide your commentary is the best on TH-cam plaease carry on foreverrrr
(Speak in old man voice👴) I remember those fancy, shmancy Lego do-dads back in my day when I was 6,7,or 8 years old.
YOOOOO! I used to love Bionicles growing up. Also if you have those other games from the beginning of the video please do a video on them.
I can't put into words how much I loved the bionicles franchise. Thank you so much for kicking my nostalgia across the moon.
i remember seeing the toys and getting one or two and thinking they looked pretty cool but i never knew there was a game lol
Jesus Christ, giving away my Bionicles was fucking heartbreaking
Jacob Hackman being so young and irresponsible I probably lost a bunch of them they're probably in my old house
Yea that is sad
*but not as sad as your dad giving away your gamecube, i cry everytime ;-;*
I have a pirated game on my DS. I still have it to.
Yo yo, pirata.
My childhood
As a kid, i loved Bionicle, i still have all four movies. But I remember having a surgery surgery after the line got discontinued and my parents got me a Bionicle care package with the last movie, Bionicle Heroes, Metru Nui Nuju, and a bunch of the Cryoshell songs from the commercials, and I was a happy lad through my recovery.
So glad I'm subscribed because seeing any public acknowledgement of the awesomeness that is Bionicle fills me with the sweet nectar of a vindicated childhood! The single frame of Bionicle in the Lego Movie made me insanely happy. Ages 8 to 16 of my life were utterly soaked in anything and everything Bionicle. So upset when the bulk of my collection got stolen a few years back. Am I rambling? Yeah, but who cares because BIONICLE!!!
please do monster hunter games for beginners please?
AJ the Dragon Slayer I agree with this
Agreed i just want to hear him/her scream about all the monsters
I bought a second PSP so i could play monster hunter co op with my brother. I could also duplicate items with the second psp so i didn't need to go farming for honey for my megapotions.
I feel pity for monster hunter beginners barely learning of it now.
Yasssss do it bunz
Couldn't help but notice you keep saying "Bionicles" instead of "Bionicle", other than that it is a wonderful video!!!!
I kinda think that was a joke, I couldn't tell :P
I read all the main books in elementary school (stopped right at the metro nui arc with the piracka after the toa metro got the beast poison powers and were transformed into ...... I forgot the name) Dope Franchise. I wish I never have away my bionicle piece to goodwill..... my mother definetly made sure most of my childhood belongings disappeared
TheBlackShinigami you’re thinking of the Toa Hordika.
holy shit, this is the first video on this channel I've seen and I already friggin' LOVE YOU! this is the What I like in gaming retrospectives videos, really funny and very clever. Nice work!
That commercial was so cool at the time, I bought that song on iTunes and listened to it on my clunky white iPod.
Do I? Do I?!!!!!
That was my shit, back in the day!!!!
Fuck yeah, Butters!!!!!!
FUCK YEAH!!!!
"A open world Bionicle bionicle game would probably never happen." What about Bionicle masks of power Game, it's an open world bionicle game in unreal 4, and it's free, what about that game. 🤔
leroy shane no it's still in development discord.gg/JHbTEth
Ahhh my childhood
Good times
Fun fact, I didn't know the song title of that commercial until about 10 years later when I was a freshman. Every time that I listen to it, I get VERY fond memories of that commercial
I ACTUALLY laughed at the "Oh God it's sentient" part Lol... goodjob
NEVER! You'll never take mine! Maybe you can have all the broken pieces lime green from Hahli Mahri, but nothing else.
tiraXpyrrha Lime Green?!
*TRIGGERED*
RWBY
I’ll send these toys towards your weeb cabin.
oh my *_gOD_* ITS BEEN AGES
Just realized this was uploaded on my birthday. Huh. Neato. Thank you, SuperButterBuns
First video I’ve ever seen with you and I’m absolutely in love with your humor and voice 😂❤️
Dood my sister still has a wallpaper for these toys and she’s 17 lol
I remember Bionicle and I still have the figures
Thomas Murphy I wish I still had mine😢
I still have bion heros and my god do I still love it
Fun fact: if you stay still for a long time in Bionicles heroes your character will turn around and knock your screen or take off his head. I played this game quite a bit when little and that's one of the few things I remember.
I still remember begging my Aunt to buy me the first Bionicle game for ps2. She ended up getting it for me and I couldn't play it till I went back home at the end of the weekend. Loved every minute of playing it as a kid and honestly I still find it fun even today to an extent
I never had Bionicle growing up, and never knew what they were all about. Am I lacking as a person?
Every one pray for this person's salvation, for he never knew that which was fucking awesome.
Yoyoenix91 Yes.
Pick up any of the gen 1 books.
Or read the comics online.
Then apologize for your ignorance
I cannot truthfully say because I am heavily biased. Bionicle has been a part of my life non-stop for the past 16 years, even through the five years after Bionicle generation one got canceled and we thought we'd never see any again.
Are you lacking? Probably not, but I'm obligated to believe your life would be richer with it.
No. But you could be MORE of a person.
Ur childhood must have been a joyless ride with 0 magic and Fun.dont worry mate i will pray to the great beings for you!
I only played the "Bionicle Heroes" game. Pretty sure i 100%'ed it too.
The fps game on ds was my favorite
When I literally saw the title I had the song playing in my head with the commercial. Oh my Lord that really takes me back.
I know this video was from 4 years ago, but I wish I had known about your channel when this video dropped because I used to live in VA Beach and I had every Bionicle up to the multiverse series.
