History of Lego Bionicle Sets Through Commercials and Videos

Tuesday, May 20th, 2008

If you are not familiar with the storyline, all Bionicles names and sets look similar (they are not, of course), so I decided to create a Bionicle timeline using Lego official commercials and other videos available at YouTube.

To know more about the Bionicle storyline and sets, you can go to the Bionicle Wikipedia Page and use it as a startup page to all things Bionicle (lots of links and info there). If that’s not enough, you can check the excellent BZPower website for more interesting information such as news, sets reviews, discussion forums, commercial promotions, and all kind of fan stuff.

I must admit that it was somewhat difficult to build a complete timeline of all Bionicle sets, so I chose only to provide videos for all heroes, neutral and villains characters canister sets, leaving away all the titans and boxed sets. C’mon, don’t complain, just sit and enjoy the videos!
