LEGO Digital Designer is a free sandbox (legobox?) that gives the player an unlimited supply of pieces to build with. Originally, there was a service that would let users buy their creations in physical LEGO form and have it shipped to their house. Mata Nui 3D Game (Or MN3D), is a game I crated on Unity3D, based off the immensely popular Mata Nui Online Game by Templar Studios. Unfortunately due to Weebly's cap on upload size, I can't stream the game to this site, so it's a download only at the moment. There is a standalone version of the game below.

Aside from the toys in the LegoBionicle franchise, Lego has also marketed an ongoing book series, several video games (mostly for the Game Boy Advance), and four computer-animated movies which feature important plot points. A Bioniclecomic book was also published by DC Comics and made available free to members of the Lego Club with some issues of the Lego Magazines. Some comic issues were also posted on the official Bionicle website, Bionicle.com. There are also various other ancillary products available, such as watches, toothbrushes, and backpacks, as well as online adventure games. Much of the additional content for Generation 1 that was originally available on the now inactive official websites Bionicle.com and BionicleStory.com is now available on an unofficial website called BioMedia Project.

Comics (Generation 1)[edit]

Bionicle/Bionicle: City of Legends[edit]

The first series of comics ran from 2001 to 2005. It followed the story of the Toa Mata/Nuva, and later, the Toa Metru/Toa Hordika. The first three issues were about the rise of the Toa Mata, illustrated by Carlos D'Anda. Randy Elliott took over starting in 2002, for issues 4–8, about the Bohrok invasion and the transformation of the Toa Mata into Toa Nuva. Issues 9-15 were about the Toa Nuva's battle with the Bohrok Kal and the Rahkshi. Then issue 16 started the Metru-Nui stories, later going into the Hordika starting with issue 22. The series ended on a cliffhanger with issue 27, with a teaser for the movie Web of Shadows which would conclude the story, and the new arc that would begin in 2006.

Ignition[edit]

The Ignition series follows the 2006-2007 storyline. 'Issue Zero' was a pull-out poster of Hakann and an interview with the new artist Stuart Sayger, hired for his 'darker, edgier style.' Issue 6 was online-only, later published in print by Papercutz with the rest of the series, and began the 'Sea of Darkness' subseries for 2007. The series chronicled the Toa Inika's quest for the Mask of Life.

Battle for Power (the newly rebranded title of Ignition)[edit]

The Battle for Power subseries covered the 2008 storyline. It had a new artist, Leigh Gallagher. It had 4 issues.

Promotional comics[edit]

There have been several promotional comics. The first one was released with the Happy Meal at McDonald's. You would receive a promo Tohunga (later renamed Matoran, due to a conflict over the use of the maori language) and a comic. Later in 2002, Burger King's Big Kids Meal released 3 promo comics about the story of the Bohrok.In the spring of 2004, three promotional comics on the Morbuzakh saga were sold in Mega Lunchables.Some canister sets have had shortened mini-comic versions of the LEGO comics.

Games[edit]

There are also several video games based on Bionicle.

Generation 1[edit]

1. Lego Bionicle: Quest for the Toa – released for Game Boy Advance in 2001; is also known as 'Tales of the Tohunga' ('Tohunga' being an early word for 'Matoran'). It acts as a prelude to the Bionicle saga, telling how Takua gathered the Toa stones and summoned the Toa Mata to Mata Nui. Unlike most games, it is considered canon.
2. Mata Nui Online Game – released on the LEGO Bionicle website, it continues from Tales of the Tohunga and shows Takua going around Mata Nui and helping the villages. It is much beloved by older fans of Bionicle. The game was removed in 2003, and returned as a download in 2006 due to high demand.
3. Mata Nui Online Game II – released on the LEGO Bionicle website, it is the sequel to the Mata Nui Online Game and takes place before and during the events of Bionicle: Mask of Light, in which you play as Hahli of Ga-Koro.
4. Bionicle: Matoran Adventures – released for Game Boy Advance in 2002, you play as Matoran fighting against the Bohrok swarms.
5. Bionicle: The Game – released for PC, PlayStation 2, Xbox, GameCube, and Game Boy Advance in 2003; this is a video game adaptation of the first movie, Mask of Light.
6. Bionicle: Maze of Shadows – released for Game Boy Advance in 2005, this game expands on the story of Bionicle Adventures #6: Maze of Shadows.
7. Bionicle Heroes – was released for PC, PlayStation 2, Xbox 360, Gamecube, Game Boy Advance, and Nintendo DS in November 2006, with a Wii version released later in 2007. In the game you play as both the Toa Inika and the Piraka. It was produced by TT Games, the team behind the Lego Star Wars games.

Generation 2[edit]

1. Bionicle: Mask of Creation – released for iOS devices in 2015.
2. Bionicle: Mask of Control – released for iOS devices in 2016.

Canceled Bionicle games[edit]

1. Lego Bionicle: The Legend of Mata Nui was planned to be released for PC. It would have covered the events of the 2001 storyline. The player played as the Toa Mata exploring the island, using Kanohi masks and battling Rahi. Due to a programming error, the player couldn't advance from the first level, where you played as Onua. The game was canceled because LEGO switched managements in 2001 and because this game was made by the previous LEGO management, the new guard felt no obligation to keep it going.^[1] In February 2018, a functioning alpha build of the game was recovered^[2] and on May 12, 2018, the beta version of the game was released to the public.^[3]
2. Bionicle: City of Legends was a planned sequel to Bionicle, set for release in 2004. The players would presumably control the Toa Metru in the game. It was cancelled while it was under production because the developer, Argonaut Games, was liquidated before the game's planned release; however, a small playable tech demo exists.

Trading card game[edit]

During the first year of the BIONICLE toyline, in 2001, McDonald's distributed packets of cards with their 'kids' meals. There were five cards in each one: four regular, and one holographic or 'special' card. The packet came with a mini comic that had an instruction booklet telling the person how to play the game. There was another card game that was sold (instead of collected, like the above) which included a board along with other accessories to play the game.

In 2008 LEGO also distributed the 'Phantoka Trading Card Game', which were given away for free in little packages which included about six trading cards with a picture and information of one of the Toa Nuva, Makuta, Av-Matoran or Shadow Matoran. The package also included one holographic card, which featured the combination of a Phantoka and a Matoran. The packages were given away for free in many toy stores in Europe if you bought a Phantoka set.

More media[edit]

Besides the movies, books, comics, et cetera, there are other ways parts of the Generation 1 story have been told. Much of this content is now available on the unofficial BioMedia Project website.

Reading materials[edit]

Bionicle.com had some information about parts of the Generation 1 story, including some character biographies.

BionicleStory.com had several sections containing information about the Generation 1 characters, locations, and more. Among the offerings were also story serials and 'blog' chapters, the latter being each one or two pages of story text styled as a journal entry from one of the fictional Bionicle characters.

Audio[edit]

Bionicle.com had two downloadable MP3s (as well as two PDF files with the 'lyrics' to the MP3s) that describe the rise the giant robotic body of Mata Nui out of its slumber and his exile from said body when Makuta Teridax took it over in the Generation 1 plotline.^[4]
