The new Bohrok sets, as seen in Tim's scans at FBTB ((URL) reputed to be the "spiders" we have seen pre-production sketches of recently. Good, bad or Rahi...we don't know yet, but here's what I think I see: Exo-suits! Don't these look like armored (...) (23 years ago, 30-Oct-01, to lugnet.technic.bionicle)

I don't think you're on to something, if you look closely, they have the same size feet as the Toa, that gives you the size perspective, they look smaller than the Toa actually, but wider. I believe that they are Rahi. (...) (23 years ago, 30-Oct-01, to lugnet.technic.bionicle)

(...) We'll need to wait for Tim to get us some better scans, but to me the feet don't look like the Toa feet at all...they look almost "built" (dare we hope for the integration of System pieces? Nah!). The storyline so far has different Rahi in (...) (23 years ago, 30-Oct-01, to lugnet.technic.bionicle)

I dare say that those feet look small enough to fit in the slots underneath the Toa's feet... I like that idea. But how would it work for Pohatu? (...) (23 years ago, 30-Oct-01, to lugnet.technic.bionicle)

From the pictures, it looks like the head is a clear canopy with coloured printing, and maybe an LOM Martian inside (or at least something coloured showing through that looks like an LOM Martian head)? Martin (Not Martian) (23 years ago, 30-Oct-01, to lugnet.technic.bionicle)

(...) I agree here. In the hatching picture (URL) the upside-down flame looking object in front. Now look at Gahlok's weapons. (URL) think they are the same thing. I guess that tells us that these Bohrok guys, whatever they are, ball up. Cool. David (23 years ago, 30-Oct-01, to lugnet.technic.bionicle)

Hmmmm...that looks like Gahlok alright. But what does this have to do with "the truth"? What is "The Truth"? I still maintain that they are anti-toa. Tim (...) (23 years ago, 31-Oct-01, to lugnet.technic.bionicle)

These are the 'spiders' not exo-suits, and in a way as someone said they are 'anti-Toa'. The canopy is too small for a Turaga or Tohunga. Haven't you heard the rumors? These are the six spiders, there will hopefully be more Bionicle sets coming in (...) (23 years ago, 31-Oct-01, to lugnet.technic.bionicle)

I was chatting to the manager of the Legoland shop a couple of weeks ago, and she said she'd seen the new range (Bohrok) and that they come in a canister (like the Toa) but it's see-through, and that they roll along in a ball and then spring open.

Notice the " ' ' "'s around spiders(like this 'spiders'), meaning that these are the things that were RUMORED to be be spiders, but this is what they turned out as. Yes, I agree, they're not spiders, but technically, I never said that they were, (...) (23 years ago, 31-Oct-01, to lugnet.technic.bionicle)
