[KZN02]

Um ... I'm not sure what to say. Is it okay to display summer sets now?  

[Daikunus Of Chaos]

Im guessing its ok, since in a few weeks theyll be showed at the toyfare in NYC  

[KZN02]

Really, I hope ToyFair magazine has them. Anyways, just don't post the images in BS01, they have a policy against it.  

[Daikunus Of Chaos]

Yea, I was talkin to the owner of BS01 on msn and he said the leaks weren't allowed over there, again, they'll probably be allowed once the toyfair rolls around....  

[TheDarkHooded]

Pretty interesting. I like the look, they're definitly something new. I'm more concerned about the Nuva though, I hope their designs fit well. Takanuva looks cool, I'm warming up to him being a Toa of light and dark, which is pretty savage. He's big though, he's got Pohatu's arms as armor on his legs. And for the Jextrax and all thems, the only rumors I've heard are that three of them are an evil version of Pohatu, Lewa, and Kopaka, I'm not too sure though.  

[Toa-Nuva]

- Tahu somehow looks like a red Defilak... So I think he more looks like a Matoran than a Toa.
(- The other Mistika's pics are to small to say something about them...)
Takanuva: Looks pretty cool... But I hoped he'd be white on the left half of his body and black on the other half... Instead, it's just a strange mix... But he still looks cool. smile
- Vultraz, Rockoh, Jetrax, Axalara: Great... Four more sets I probably will buy and never build because of the lack of space...

But are you 100% sure that these aren't fakes?  

[TheDarkHooded]

They're like the pre- stages of what they're going to look like, as in, these are like the first or second design for these characters. They can still change them, and probably will (some of them I hope) but it looks like as far as the canister sets go, they're set. I mean, this early into 2007 we didn't have any packaging pictures of the Mahri, just the Mahri themselves. It's up in the air, they aren't fake but they aren't exactly real either. We'll know in a few months. Doesn't really answer the question, but gives insight on the sets themselves.

actually, we'll get next-to-final designs in the next 3-4 weeks from the NYC toyfair, who I'll add, a represenative from MoD will be at....he sorta asked me to join him....but its out of my way a bit

SO COOL. I've been asking around about that, I was trying to see if I could get in because I work at Lego, no such luck though. ^^;;;; He asked you to join him huh? Like as his assistant? Or.....?

Soo coool!!! You totally should!! Even if you can't, you ahve to!! To take pictures for the rest of us! ^^;;;;

My Only Criticism is that Krika and Gorast Lack Full Limb Articulation compared to previous sets. so My Favorite Makuta Mistika is Bitil but I wish they'd use real yellow instead of school bus yellow, can look too orange to me sometimes. and the toa are cool looking and Tahu is my favorite because RED is my favorite color... $13 each sheesh. but I'm still getting all 6 at the comic-con. Like I did with the visorak and the toa mahri (the Inika Werent available in comic con 06 so I ordered by catalog thaT TIME >_<)  

[TheDarkHooded]

Wait, you can buy the summer sets at comic-con? Is that because Cominc-con is in the summer? Or......????  

[kopakanui]

I am amazed by how the new sets are starting to look. Again as usual I will be getting these guys as soon as possible.
