And the big one: Sayger is gone, baby!

.... Okay, so that was pretty harsh. But seriously (boy I say that a lot), I lost all faith in him after they mutilated vakama in the last scene of the latest comic. It's unfortunate, as the scene above showed he can do good work if he wants to. Seems he just gave up trying to make a nice comic, though. :-/

I honestly think that we've never had a decent comic artist since Carlos D'anda. Randy Elliot I felt was good untill after the Rahkshi saga. And then Stuart Sayger was fun for the first couple of issues, but then it seemed like he stopped trying.

I hope the new artist is whoever created the 2008 teaser on the back cover of Igniton #11. I love those thick, dark lines in that. And then the detail *wub*

Nope, sorry, but as much as we'd all like that, it ain't gonna happen. Greg confirmed that the back page teaser was just done by the chief art director at lego or something. They have no confirmination on a new artist yet. :-(

Actually, I've liked all the artwork up until 2006. Sayger had some awesome background and effect design, but his character designs have never been the best. Look at the Piraka spines and Umbra, or what was supposed to be representing them in the comics. I think this year it just got worse, and the finer lines of 2006 were gone, replaced with drawings comparable to early sketches, NOT finished art. *sad*

[Clonie]

Even better: They're trying to go for a 2001-2002 style with the comics next year.

Oh behave, baby. X-D

I came across this Icarax box pic, that they tried to MoC him.

Does anyone know if this is a legit box pic?

[Zarkan]

Trust me, it's not. ;-)

[Trexxen]

Nope, that's definitely not real - it's from a MOC topic on BZPower =P

(Besides, look at the font and unevenness of the word "Icarax"! And since when were box pics 3d? >.>; )

[BrotherDog]

Thanks.

I had my doubts.

[VBBN]

Yeah, thats a fake. :-/ Cool box though.

So BZP is under the MiB attack again? I guess I outta send out a E-mail to them, once I get it fixed.

[Derek]

So BZP is under the MiB attack again?

Why is BZP in trouble with the Men in Black? 8-|

[Clonie]

They're attacking BZP for no reason. Whoever they are.

They posted some, um, disturbing images in their most recent attack.

Actually, I'm not sure if that even was MIB.

[Lord Admiral Helden Ravensdorn]

Even I got MIB spam... >_<

[Shakar]

Check this.

As far as I'm concerned, he looks totally awesome. Too bad that it seems the "canister" opens in the same way the Toa Mahri ones do....

I can't wait for more pics.

[Kynok]

Wait... What? MIB? They what?

What a time for the board to be offline.

What is it?

A picture of the front and back of vamprahs canibox. Nothin to intresting. But good none the less.

[Zarkan]

Wait... What? MIB? They what?

Exactly my thoughts. What is this MIB thing about, anyway? *wacko*

Oh, and Vamprah looks just as ugly as before to me. Something tells me this year is going to be light on Bionicle purchases for me.... :-P

[Clonie]

Looks like he's Mata blue.

*sigh*

[:Venomess:]

Looks like he's Mata blue.

*sigh*

Is that a good sigh, or a bad sigh? Because Mata blue is a good thing.

I think he'd look better in Metru blue but we won't know until I get him...

I find an adequate amount of humor that a BZ staffer drops a link which has female nipples visible directly on the first page.

Naughty santa girl FTW!

:-D

EDIT: Ah, the images on that page randomize every time you refresh it.

Still, funny.

[Clonie]

7) Replying to the statement about the Metru Nui Matoran being able to produce Cordak ammo -- Why? Why would Toa want such weapons if they can avoid it?

7) Why not? What if the Makuta launch an all-out attack on Metru Nui? Are you going to be picky about what weapons you use to fight them off?

He has a point.

[Zaktan of the Shadows]

Mata Blue is indeed a good thing.

NOT Icarax. Edited December 2, 2007 by Shine

[Visorak-kal]

Icarax.

Ah, I see it wasn't legit. Oh, well. We'll see him eventually!

BTW, people in the U.S. don't have to do the search for Downfall anymore, since anyone in the U.S. can order it off Barnes&Noble.com.
