    The Five Visitors

    Another build done for Bio-Cup 2022, numbers was the theme and I specifically had the prompt of "5" and was quite stumped but then settled on a Pentagon shaped portal with 5 aliens stepping through. Are they friendly? We don't know, for the moment at least. The Five Visitors by Axelford2, on Flickr

    Glad to hear that Dwayne could cheer you up Thanks! Bio-Cup allows quite the mixture of unusual pieces so it's a fun exercise and a yearly stretch of the creative muscles. Groovy! Thank you! Yes I had brought the Bonsai Tree finally that same week so I was inspired to put froggies on somewhere...plus my green parts are limited! Yes, he has got that drive and got that power... Also can I just say it's a real shame there is not a 'like' button on here, wish I could 'like' your comments folk!

    Hello Eurobricks! Been a while...again! Anywho I've had quite a bit of fun with Bio-Cup this year and want to show my favourite build I did, the theme was Nature and I sorta stretched it...into a force of nature!

    Angelic Inquisitor

    The hood and pauldron combo reminds me of an infamous piece of Roblox headgear lol, stunning part spam though and usage of gold pieces.

    Classic Space Color meanings

    Although Black are listed as spies or as security by some, I like to think because one of them is in the back of Uranium detector and in the Astro Grappler, that they are geologists :) As pink is a fairly new addition, perhaps I can suggest Xeno-biologist? Or maybe that's Orange. Might have taken Legoland people a while to come in contact with enough alien environments and peoples to warrant a special group. I say this as even in the old ideas books they run into aliens. But yes the whole role thing is a fun head canon and provides plenty of prompts for building. Even in space, you cannot escape bureaucracy/the corporate environment XD

    MOC: The Mata Nui Robot

    Thank for sharing your thoughts, I'm glad to hear it brings back memories. Yes it is interesting thinking that already TLG was developing a less story intensive range to be a successor. I hope to that it can reach 10,000 votes...although the odds are not in it's favour considering 2 out of 50 seem to get picked. Still, making it to the finish line would still be a win.

    MOC: The Mata Nui Robot

    Yeah I was hoping to advertise to a slightly different group, I have a feeling those in actions figures will have already seen it elsewhere.

    MOC: The Mata Nui Robot

    Updated the head and I think it looks a lot better now. For some reason I can only import super compressed pictures which is a shame. Anyways surely head on down to Lego Ideas to support!

    MOC: The Mata Nui Robot

    Hello denizens of Eurobricks! This MOC was started about February 2019 but I got stuck on the head and lost my files, I started again last October and finished it around the last day of the year. I figured although this creation is from the Bionicle universe (well it kind of is the universe) it is a sci-fi creation and a system build so it goes here I'm quite proud of it as it's my first build using Bricklink Studio and I definitely am going to do most of my building (or at least planning and part budgeting) in Studio from now on. Edit: added the scale comparison photo. Here's the link to the ideas page that has views of the other sides: https://ideas.lego.com/projects/0c310848-b5eb-4d71-85b6-258bc99b0b73 One area I definitely need to fix is the spine-which has numerous collisions due to how difficult flex hoses are to work with in Studio. After the last update it numbers 1984 parts, happy to hear any advice from those experienced with mechs etc or who have ideas for additions
  10. Hi Eurobricks-man I've been inactive a long time Anyways, I definitely am conflicted about this vote. I am a fan of Bionicle-I collect it's sets and build constraction Mocs and I love the story but I agree that it feels wrong to celebrate Lego's 90th with a theme that although influential really needs its own separate celebration, I also collect vintage Lego and own plenty of classic space and castle and therefore sympathize with both sides. I emphasise what @MuscoviteSandwich said, Lego Ideas is the route Bionicle fans should go to get a set made-many have been put off by the dismal of Sokodas project but I believe second time round Lego will realise there is a market and even if they don't approve a project it still shows the Bionicle fandom is alive and kicking. *cough *cough vote for my Ideas project pls It's really a shame that adventurers and train didn't make it in-train especially as it's a theme that can always do with another train seeing as how one Loco can differ from the next.

    (MOC)-Classic Space - Some MOC

    The refinery looks awesome. I love the idea of using only old pieces, reminds me of the idea books pictures of big space bases with lots of technic visible.

    Minions 2021 - Rumors & Discussion

    I’m only interested if Lego later releases sets from the 1st movie. I need Minifigure Vector Perkins in my life.

    [MOC] Shrek's swamp

    Looks great. I will definitely support this when it goes to Lego ideas. A suggestion, the outhouse could be improved, maybe change the colour to a mix of tan and gray and put the roof on a slant.

    [MOC] LEGO Tintin - Rocket from Explorers on the Moon
