Bionicle going downhill?Meh, go to Karzahni. I mean hell.

Aw come one guys, Bionicle ain't going downhill! Look at the Barraki! They are *Gasp* NOT CLONES! The Mahri ain't no clones either! Ok, they have gattling torpedo blasters, so what? Exo Toa electro rocket, anyone? Hydraxon: Like a skeleton? Gimme a break! It is like so freaking bulked up! And if he is skinny, of course he has to be! He's been dead for some time and then revived recently! Maxilos, ok, I admit it looks simple, but no need to bash it about people!It's a robot!No skin. No flesh!So cof course it is..Skeletony! The Barraki: Not complex enuff compared to Rahi. Ok, I'll admit it, they are too simple, but hello? The barraki are $19 canister sets. The Rahi are what? $60 on average box sets? It ain't fair! I'm not bashing the Rahi, they look good, good functions, but the price is a nono.

The Barraki look too different? THEY ARE 6 DIFFERENT SPECIES! The Toa having Gattling Torpedo launchers? Gee, let's see what their up against.
Side of good:
Toa with Torpedo launchers and the usual sword, claw, spear, etc, etc.
Matoran of Mahri Nui(Hopefully)
Lesovikk(Hopefully)
Hydraxon(Somewhat, a bit of a troublemaker)

Side of evil:
Barraki(With their huge armies, containing thousands of sea creature each)
Makuta
Maxilos and Spinax
And more...

Wow, the Toa are sure gonna win.*Rolls eyes*
That was sarcasm.
They are gonna get turned into Paste!They are so gonna lose, of course they need torpedo launchers!(Btw, they are going to manipulate the Barraki into killing each other)

Sets too cloned?
Look at the Barraki, and tell me what similarities you can find in 10 seconds. Do the same with the Toa Mahri.
Now look at the Bohrok and Bohrok Kal.
The Bohrok and Bohrok Kal are alomst Identical. They are officially the most clone sets ever. EVEN THE HORDIKA ARE BETTER. LEt's see...

Bohrok/Bohrok Kal:
Similarities:
limbs
body structure
feet
sheilds
Differences:
krana
colour

Now the Hordika

Similarities:
Chest plate colour
Feet
Body structure
Differences:
Head shape
Weapon
colour

See?Hordika are better than Bohrok.
Not that the Hordika are great, they suck like heck compared to 2006 and 2007, but were good nonetheless.

Weapons. Too modern?Ok, I'll admit a Ice ray gun and lava laucher is too modern, but hello people, those weapons are nuts compared to...Lets say, life sapping squids?Zaktan, Hakaan, Thok, Vezok, Avak, Reidak having too many powers? Fine, I'll admit it. They are too powerful, but the fact that they would love nothing more than to kill their own team mates seriously brings down that über strong attribute.

Bionicle going downhill in general. Ok, a timeline might solve this.

2001: Bionicles birth. Yippee!Start of 7 years of lego goodness. ooo...Mysterious island, evil entity(Makuta) cursed omnipotent Spirit(Mata Nui) into everlasting sleep. 6 heroes(Toa) hlp the villagers defeat the evil...

2002: Wow!Makuta is back!And with swarms of robotic machines with the command to destroy everything(Bohrok) as minions. Evil robots?No. Toa Transform into stronger Toa. Wowwee! Good parts for creations!

2003: Cor!Makuta unleashes Rahkshi to hunt down the Toa of light! Light prevails, Metru nui is refound! Yay!!!!First Bionicle Movie!Omigosh!!

2004: Wow!Turaga were Toa Metru once on Metru Nui!So cool! Second Bionicle movie!Awesome! Finally showed the day Makuta bespelled Mata Nui! Toa Metru finds new island and brings a few Matoran there!

2005: Ok...Toa Metru returns to Metru Nui and takes back Matoran. Gets mutated into Toa Hordika!Vakama Betrays them and returns to side of good!Matoran brought to new island.

2006: Shock!Horror!MAta Nui is Dying! Toa Nuva sent to Voya Nui to get Mask of Life, only to be defeated by the Piraka!Jaller and his company sets out to find the Toa...And become Toa them selves!They defeat the Piraka, but the mask of lifes goes under water...They follow in the name of good...

2007: The Mask is under water. A lost civilisation is found!Wow!6 imprisoned warlords attempt to get the mask, but the Toa try to stop them!Toa Mahri are here!So's Lesovikk!


All in all, Bionicles going up ya'll, maybe I'm the optmistic/over ethusiastic Fanboy, but heck, Ive been with bionicle since the beginning. I ain't giving up hope now.
Oh, and Jaller is jealous that Matoro is the mask bearer, so to those who say "ZOMG!!!!1111perfect Team!"...You are so wrong.

Your friendly Bionicle Fanboy,
