#8998 Toa Mata Nui

Looks like there are still set LEGO keep it secret from us, and it is #8998 Toa Mata Nui. This version of Mata Nui is bigger and cooler. Below are pictures found from varderan's Brickshelf folder:

I think this set turns out great, as the size of this Toa is much bigger than expected and we can hardly find a gigantic robot which suits our budget nowadays. So is a must have for all the Bionicle fans.

Wonder if LEGO will make giant Makuta in the future. . .

Here's Ole Kirk's House. Some sort of special set which is so limited in quantity. The house itself looks just great and below are the pictures extracted from barman's Brickshelf gallery:

Power Miners #8709 Underground Mining Station

Looks like there are more surprises ahead from Power Miners theme which is, there turn out to be another set other than Cave Crusher, and that is #8709 Underground Mining Station. Below are the image found at Brickshelf:

I think is an exclusive set again. But anyway, the Power Miners team finally get a base of their own which is the good side of it and the bad side of it is that it turns out to be a little disappointing as I don't really like the way it was design.

New Indiana Jones Magents

Here's the new Indiana Jones magnets which turn out somewhat disappointing, but one good thing of this magnet set is the Crystal Skull and that's all. As for the minifigs, we can get them from Jungle Duel (#7624) which turn out to be more worthy as you get many accessories out from that set.

Oh, well, is still a good chance to get a crystal skull from this magnet set.
