These MOCs are fan concepts of my idea of what sets of a School subtheme for LEGO City would look like. With LEGO Friends having a school set, I’m amazed that City doesn’t have one yet and it been around longer. Though it kinda understandable, sense let’s be honest… no one like school. But if there was a subtheme for school, it would be a pretty small wave of having 2 or 3 sets, those being the School Bus, the school and maybe a people pack (4 or more figures). Basically it’ll be like the hospital subtheme; seriously have you seen how small the amount of hospital sets there are in city? In fact there isn’t any need to make new prints for this one, as they can just use already existing printings. Except if they want to have students uniforms, but with that they could try to see if they could get away with reusing the hogwarts uniforms, which would be great if it would be Hufflepuff, Slytherin or Ravenclaw; sense we know we’re gonna get lots of Gryffindor in the Harry Potter sets. Also, I think it would be good the student each come with a red or blue recolor of the skydiver backpack, as that piece would be fitting for this. From the concept I made of what I school subtheme could be, there would likely to be 9 different minifigure, 2 being reuse, those being students. There would be 4 student, 1 random adult, bus driver, teacher, lunch lady and the principle. I could see the lunch lady returning the series 6 Surgeon’s surgical cap, though it could just use the swept back short ponytail and pretend the fig is wearing a hairnet or something. Also I honestly think it would be great if the principle would use Sensei Wu’s face, so there can just be more different faces. Now for the MOCs. I was planning to make a Recess pack to be the $10 way to get 3 students and 1 teacher, but decided to throw that out because there can just be a people pack for those figures and more. School Bus Target Price: $40 - $50 Minifig: bus driver, 3 student, 1 adult Pieces: 256 Basing the design off the 2018 Bus Station, I want to try to at least make this look like it would cost $10 less compare to that set, as it hold only 3 students and the bus driver. With the door, I try to see if I could use the rolling door to make a two door open, however they were way too tall, so the normal door will have to do, which I also use the opposite side of the door for the back. The sidebuild could be anything, for my choice of the side build is a park gate, a fitting thing for a school subtheme. School Target Price: $60 - $90 Mnifig: 3 student, 1 teacher, 1 principle, cafetaria Pieces: 312 To keep it on the safe side with the idea of a school subtheme, I try to make the school at least less than $100, at least around 70 to 90 dollars. The side build from the school would be a simple car and the school sign thing. Also have a bike and skateboard. With a choice of color, a tan fleshy color come to mind, the walls were going to be tan, however the medium dark flesh really give more color to it, while the dark tan are use for these pillars to give some texture. There are 4 rooms, the entrance, classroom, principal office and the cafeteria. I went with not having a door between the cafeteria and entrance to keep the price low and was hoping there be room for a table, which is just cut straight out of the Great Hall set. The classroom is where the light brick would be put in and would be use in the same way as the x-ray from the 2018 Hospital but show different class related stuff like math, history and science.

So I went and made my own version of battle packs relating to the Sith and Jedi, sense I think those two would be good for those who want to recreate the battle in the Jedi Temple from the old republic or anything that a person need to build a army of Sith or Jedi for. Sith Battle Pack 98 pieces (minifigure 20 pieces, weapon 10 pieces, speeder 64 pieces and 4 studs) 4 minifigures (2 sith apprentice, 1 sith master and 1 sith lord (Sith Pureblood)) Model: “Now here’s the most original thing for a battle pack… a speeder” Do to the sith having lightsabers (though this pack could be the first outside of the superhero theme to have the super jumper), it’s best for the model to at least have stud shooter. While pretty much no one care about the model in battle packs and only want minifigures for army building, I wanted this battle pack to be different of having contraction parts which I think gave off a good shape for the speeder of using those 3 ultrabuild pieces though I wouldn't say the same with the tip of using those Exo-Force arms and small claw. With the use of these parts, the wings and front parts can move to find some sort of way to pose it. Jedi Battlepack 106 pieces (minifigure 20 pieses, weapon 8 pieces, Dwarf Spider Droid 39 (x2 78)) 4 minifigures (Jedi Master, 2 Jedi Knights, Padawan) Model: After I made a Sith battle pack a few months back, it would make sense for me to make a Jedi Battle Pack. But instead of a speeder for them, it’s an enemy model of the Dwarf Spider Droid, but instead of having a stud shooter, it have the ‘Power Blast’ piece that mostly been used in the Superhero theme. The head of the droid can turn, but not a full 360 do to the legs. Speaking the the legs, originally they were going to be hinge pieces, but they didn’t work so I went with the Exo-Force Arms that was used in the 2008 Dwarf Spider Droid (set 7670). Do to the size of them compare to other battle pack model, looking too small and may cost lesser than $10. So instead of building a different model, this would have 2 of them that can build up someone droid army with some Dwarf Spider Droids.

[MOC] Sailing in bottle with ship in bottle
ShadowWolfHount replied to JoeChu1980's topic in Special LEGO Themes
Fantastic job on making a smaller version of the ship in the bottle, and nice base that holds it. Though I really don't like the minifigure inside, it really sticks out badly. -

So from the look of the many clearance sell I seen, most likely they have over stocked the first wave sets to madness level, and/or printing is the enemy of constraction (which seeing Chewbacca price with the size of the parts used support this). And with the marketing, made it sound like they had the lowest budget and/or they spent way too much on the NYCC booth and the stuff that went on there.
-
Alright it seem that I been proven wrong about the golden mask, though I still have not got an answer about where the imagination that money for more newer parts and promoting things went. Yet you don't think the amount one get from the reward is a bit too on the high price, I believe having the reward being around at least 500 is better than overboard $10K+, unless it's something that could majorly help LEGO get more people buying than like "create a promo video or poster" compare to building something. It seems that I'm unable to counter this argument, mainly do to brickset not showing the original price for all sets from 1979 to 1981. However the amount I could use against, before 1985 having over 100 was pretty rare unlike now a day where there are now over 500 and correct me if I'm mistaken, but the past 2 year LEGO wasn't happy of how it was doing, especially with the death of Bionicle G2 and Dimensions (most especially with the crazy overstock of LEGO Dimensions sets that they were thrown in dollar stores) before the 3rd year. In fact there was an article of LEGO admits that they made too many new bricks. You say that it isn't a lot compare to the 42 pages of smaller sets, but with the amount of sets being made in a single year, both of them are equally bad, especially those that makes new molds for exclusively a single licensed theme and never be seen again (Star Wars now being a huge example of this). With nowadays with Roblox and Minecraft, that's not a very strong argument, heck the BrickShow even brought up that his kid been playing Roblox more than LEGO and he even show that kids are more to Roblox and Minecraft than LEGO. That's what I'm talking about, but having the toa price at $5-$13, however the Toa needs to have a lower amount of the plastic of the parts being more smaller like original Bionicle (which those specialized parts with the gaps and stuff really helped the Toa look taller than the shell and bones) and Hero Factory. Also I added constraction to the topic so this whole thing remains somewhat on topic in the action figure section, and it actually does because I did brought up that constraction is a different animal compare to system theme sets, thus me bring up by constraction's idea of a $50-100 set is anything over $15. "I'm not sure what you think should have been done to improve that" said that when I said before "2016 wave 1 should had been the start" that would been improving the first year. If you speaking of improving only the sets without replacing them with 2016 sets, well that be easy, for one there would be a new torso made that actually have both the torso, knob box and head connection as one single piece, instead of back slap. The two armor pieces would be made to connect directly to the ball joint instead of being an add-on armor (and the armor would have connection for more pieces), and the armor would be made that all 6 (long with the protectors) would be using both armor, instead of Onua exclusive armor. And lastly the body armor would be a new instead of already existing armor, it be made like the old ones of having many connections (unlike that one connection Uniter and Clone Trooper armor) but still some detail in the design. Now not counting new mold for weapons, mask and heads, there be about 4 new molds instead of 2015's 3. Now sense the Toa would be using the Ultrabuild system, they be made around the size of the 2.0 Heroes, which Toa would at least have 2 of both the new armor molds, with using any of the old armor shells, I believe the 3 size armor would be a commonly seen piece on most of the Toa. Now if design right and not have any very large weapons, I believe all of them would be around $10. It would have a more bigger first year identity and targets the $10 price rang, if Onua must be a bit bigger would be targeting the $15 price rang (though I wouldn't know how it would look). Also I still haven't gotten my answer of where all the money went with the marketing and sets.

Well Leewan give the citation of when the golden hau was made, and the BZP article was made close to the end of 2001, and that BZP said that they have "miss out on it", I believe it is safe to 'assume' that it was done around the summer, when they saw that the first wave have done very well. How was a ignoring the function?! I said right in that quote "and had knob function" (note that it's a nick name I call it because it only use those 4-tooth pieces), which that function was literally slap on the back, not like Star Wars where it was in the body, no it was just slap there and called it a day (which seeing that made me hugely disappointed). That knub box can easily be taken off and place the arm on those exposed balljoin (besides for kopaka) and given a hero core- and what you know it's a Hero Factory. Which is why I believe that 2016 wave 1 should had been the start, because it has a identity to the Ultrabuild System and not slapping a function on it's back. I just said to take it with a grain of salt, as in be skeptical about it and that I can't show any proof of my word. Because reminder that I don't record every conversation I have with people. Though with the amount of bionicle that when on clearance (especially around the start of when a wave came out than went on clearance a month later), could put my words into meaning. Especially the- Okay i was going to go with a huge font and put in CLEARANCE BLAST than having a picture of a big lot of bionicle in a huge box saying clearance blast, but it seems that picture sharing hates me. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1LWrP69AuAF-GeOMDCov-i4vz6ALKLaS9/view The reason it was the dumbest choice is that it was obviously made to people who are already fan of bionicle, sense there was no marketing for that contest to bring in new consumers. Reminder that promoting and having ads for a contest isn't an alien thing. You just right out ignored the " I find it unlikely for a parent who isn't a LEGO fan to buy little jimmy something that is over $50", if you look in it realistically and logically, the majority of parents wouldn't buy their kids something over the price of $50 besides for a birthday or Christmas or some reward for the kid for a big achievement; because that money need to go to stuff that keeps a roof over your head. You need to look at it from the point of view of the majority and parents who aren't toy fans.
-
May I ask of when those golden haus were made, was it before the creation of bionicle or some months or a year after. Alright thank you for giving citation instead of just words that hold nothing. I'll admit my wrong about this, however the amount you get from a reward is still madness. Pretty sure that first wave of bionicle G2 would like to disagree with that, especially that it was a Hero Factory clone just without the hero core and had knob function, while the 2nd year actually has its own identity with the Ultrabuild system. Also this would have to take my words with grain of salt, but I have heard that many people who aren't fan of LEGO disliking the sets when it's shown to them. With those of older being mostly into video games and app games (especially ones with loot box), I'm in the believe there not much leg to stand on. There about 5 pages of sets that are over the $75 on LEGO shop website, that really doesn't sound like "the exception" to me. I find it unlikely for a parent who isn't a LEGO fan to buy little jimmy something that is over $50. Now if there was only 5 or 7 of those large sets or at least a single page, I would look away from that, but that page number of those sets can't be ignored. Oh and to keep this topic about action figures, when the comes to contraction sets, the thing with large sets is a lot different when it comes to contraction, especially with the parts to price and there being only one constraction theme (sometime 2 with the other not lasting very long, example being Knights Kingdom and Superhero), thous the target price for constaction sets should be $5-13 for the majority of sets and have those being the main target to get people buying. If we look at the first year of Bionicle G2 alone, they didn't heavily promoted the $10 (i.e. protectors) more than the larger $15-30 sets or even made them eye grabbing in the stories that would get people wanting them. Especially with the fact that their at the pocket money price that anyone at any age can get, fan of it or not. It is majorly important that constraction is to not be treated like another system theme, but if it does with it not being popular, it is doom to fail from the start. Okay you say this about the golden masks, than I must ask... compare to year 1 to year 2 of new parts and design of the sets being a extreme change or looking at the standard of new parts from G1 compare to G2, where in the imagination did the money for marketing that could give Bionicle an actual identity for the first year of G2 go.
-
is this lad really trying to defend something that, if done wrong (which LEGO has done in the worse way with G2) could be a major damage to a company. The last I check, the smart move with reaching out, is to do it where it reach out to all ages, Bionicle G1 for example did a well fine job at it with great lore and design for the old, and use comic books (with making the story bit simple) with toys having a function/gimmick for the young. Bionicle G2 was the definition of doing it wrong (reminder that it died around the start of year 2 2nd wave), with the contest, which I'm gonna kill 2 birds with one stone here and bring Rebricks into this. LEGO made the dumbest choice of making those 6 golden mask when G2 when the theme haven't even started putting their first wave on shelves yet and didn't know if the theme was gonna be a success or not. G1 didn't even made any golden or metal mask until way later on, when it was for sure that Bionicle is going to be successful. As with rebricks rewards goes are a insane amount you get from those contest, they just look like their throwing their money away with the reward being around about $400 to $1000+ for the winner and/or runner up winners. That amount for a contest is crazy and LEGO throwing money away instead of using that money to make good products (Bionicle G2 sure did need that money more than using it on those golden mask). Also that " has its own budget separate from the individual themes involved", citation needed... Oh and P.S. LEGO's biggest market is kids, NOT adults.
-
Both Star Wars Ultrabuild and Binoicle G2 did not push constraction forward, not even close. You are talking about a theme that didn't made it to the 3rd year and a soon going to be another dead constraction series. If you talking about them moving constraction forward of being dead all together, than yeah, it's doing a great job at it. Also I believe what the lad meant is that CCBS has kept feeling like we're just getting the same thing over and over (exception being Bionicle 2016), Star Wars is that very example, while they have different helmet/heads and armor placement, your just outright getting the same thing but with little stuff added and different printings. Constraction is not like system and never will be, treating constraction like that is a horrible idea. Though the many years, constraction has only one theme and it's rare for another constraction theme to run for 3 years at best. Now a huge thing that you may have not notice that turn a lot of people away from the Star Wras CCBS are the price to part; now sure constraction has always have a thing with having lesser parts compare to the price, but half the parts to the normal price is acceptable. But with Star Wars ultrabuild parts to price, by the imagination you are out of your mind if you think I'll buy those. 2015 Darth Vader $30 with 160 pieces 2018 Darth Vader $40 with 168 pieces Boba Fett $30 with 144 pieces Chewbacca $35 with 179 General Grievous $35 with 186 pieces Scout Trooper™ & Speeder Bike $55 with 452 pieces Now let's take a look at price to parts of sets before the Bionicle G2 and Star Wars: Brutaka $20 with 193 pieces Vezon & Fenrakk $30 with 281 pieces Toa Mata Nui $50 with 366 pieces Witch Doctor $30 with 331 pieces Evo XL Machine $25 with 193 pieces Notice something here with the price to parts from before and after the end of Hero Factory. There are many other problem that is right in front of your faces, but yet you look away from it, speak that it being push forward, yet the large parts, printing and clothes are badly damaging constraction. Make note that I'm not saying that CCBS is the problem but what is being put on it and how it's done that is the problem, sense if we look at Hero Factory to Star Wars, to parts, size, printings and so on; the problem shows. But there's another problem with Star Wars killing off constraction, which is that it doesn't have what constraction purpose for the triangle of building. If you ask what the triangle of building is, well it is something that I created from seeing the noticeable purpose of the 3 different system (brick system, technic and constraction), that they are use for the creation of one another. Technic is for function and keeping things strongly together, system is for the small detail (but can kind of change with my system armor for constraction: see example of Red Knight and Construct-A-Astronaut) and constraction is for large texture and detailed pieces (you may know themes that does this like Racers, Mars Mission, Exo-Force and Power Miners). People obviously expect texture and detail on their constraction, not this clothe and printing garbage (clothe use to be a special to see on constraction, but it now becoming annoying to see and is now seen as damaging constraction than anything), if constraction doesn't have this important thing about it, than I ask of you, what is the purpose of constraction at all. Because without it, it's just best to replace it with brick build figures instead of these bones and armors. Because the themes you brought up that followed Exo-Force Legacy follows this triangle of building rule. Lastly, you may say that CCBS is "the best system we had" but if we're not getting anything majorly different with the system, no very unique sets like Grievous & Witch Doctor, and just "shall on bone shall on bone and so on", and is right now killing constraction, I wouldn't call that the best system we have at all.
-
Yeah, smaller is better when it comes to constraction, Bionicle G2 had the Toa as these large $15 to $20 sets and try to get people to buy those, rather than making them around the $10 range of them being smaller for kids to easily buy them, while the Protector/creature would be at the $5 range for a quick buy. I think it'll be good for the mixels joints to be used on the small $5 sets, while $10 sets would use the normal size joints, any sets above $10 would try to mix both mixels joins and normal joints.

[RUMOR] Bionicle might be returning in 2019
ShadowWolfHount replied to TwistLaw's topic in LEGO Action Figures
One have got to be a very sad man, if they think that Bionicle will return in 2019 or 2020. Especially with the fact that G2 sold horribly, not to mention with that recently 2 Star Wars Ultrabuild set has been cancelled. -
This thing was made with both CCBS and system working together, and I don't know if this would go in the Bionicle-Based Creations or System-Based Creations. flickr This figure is design to have both the CCBS and system working together, with the base torso being a long CCBS bone piece. This figure was also made to use up an of those Star Wars Ultrabuild human heads that I have, and while the CCBS human heads are something that is disliked, the adding of system which add some texture rather than printing, really helps not make it too ugly. Which the current human head that are around, Chirrut Îmwe from the Rogue One is a perfect size and can move around in the helmet greatly. This figure was made as an LEGO idea project, hopping that with a concept like this, could get more people to try mixing CCBS and system, along with pleasing the fans of the two building system. If you like this and wish to see a set of it, please support it on LEGO ideas. LEGO Idea page: https://ideas.lego.com/projects/5ae64dc9-8db1-44b0-aef9-6fdf5f0abaa1

So months back I made a fan concept of Nexo Knights, because after seeing that LEGO Dimensions have like 20 licensed theme, while there are only 4 of LEGO's original theme. My idea with Nexo Knight Exclusive ability would be an updated version of the Chi ability (the ability can be used on Chima's altar sense the Knights would be having the same thing). But the update part is depending on the Nexo Knight you have, will unlock 1 out of *insert number of how many packs of NK would have here* Nexo Power from either taking out a large group of enemies, invulnerability, turning the enemies into chickens, etc. Besides just the super strength ability. The concept isn't fully done, I'm trying to think of how Axl would fit in, because his big torso doesn't make it easy. For Clay I don't know if he would be in a level, fun or team pack with Jestro. But here what I have so far: Nexo Dimensions Gateway I wanted the gateway to have 5 of the Knights shield, along with ministatue Merlok next to one of the shield. I was thinking of having all 5 of the knights weapons as well, but I decided to go with the two swords on the side. Maybe there would be a few books and weapons next to the gateway like with the stuff on The A-Team and Gremlins Gateway. Robin Fun Pack The minifigure for the first pack was a choice between Robin, Ava, some random bot, or King Halbert. For giving the pack more ability, I went with Robin of having the ability to transform into Ultimate mode of having target and blowing up silver bricks. As for the model, I thought Merlok having a robotic body rather then a minifigure would be a good idea and fitting. Obviously the first model would be a playable character, with using the Nexo Power and could be the 3nd character to have the Relic Detector (along with that he would act the same as with the books from the TV show). With the 2nd model I though of instead of just the Nexo Power being solely to Nexo Knight characters, the 2nd model could have the ability to give none-Nexo Knights character a sword and shield for the Nexo Power ability. As for the 3rd model I didn't know what it could be, besides from it being a flying vehicle, sadly it isn't the best. I'm mostly disappointed with the front that look like a face. Robin Ability - Fix-It, Mini Access, Transformer (into Ultimate), Blowup Silver Bricks (in his Ultimate), Target (in his Ultimate) Merlok's Robot (treated as a character) - Laser Deflector, Relic Detector, X-Ray Vision, Nexo Power. Weapons Storage (gadget) - Nexo Power (give none Nexo Character the ability to use Nexo Power) Robin's Drone - Flight, Cargo Hook, Flight Dock, Laser Lace Fun Pack I pretty much threw Lance into a fun pack, thinking of having Clay and Axle into different packs, I picked Illumination as the ability that he has from the other Knights, with using his phone of pretty much taking selfies to light the place up. For the models were a pain after making the 1st model that is based off Excalibur Batman's model, Bionic Steed. Lance Ability - Acrobat, Laser Deflector, Illumination (using his phone) Mecha House - Super Jump, Special Attack (Model 2 not named yet) - Flight, Cargo Hook, Flight Dock, Tow Bar The Handsome Man Flying Thing - Flight, Cargo Hook, Flight Dock, Laser Macy and Arron Team Pack I just thought that Macy and Aaron fits together in a team pack out of the other knights. But for the models, I am happy with Arron models with trying my best to have the 2nd model somewhat like the 2017 Arron's Rock Climber while the 1st model is based on the Aero Striker. However beside from the 1st model, I am not happy with the chains, that are just very odd looking. As for Macy model, only the first model is based on the set, Thunder Mace. While the other 2 models aren't my best and I may make a new version of these three models. Macy Ability - Acrobat, Laser Deflector, (maybe Stealth with wearing a dress) Aaron Ability - Flight, Laser Deflector, Target, Grind Rails Thunder Mace - Speed, Laser. Mace Assault - Tow Bar, Laser Macy's Jet - Flight, Cargo Hook, Flight Dock, Speed Aero Striker - Flight, Target Rock Climber - Tow Bar Flying Pod- Flight, Cargo Hook, Flight Dock

LEGO Dimensions MOC: Clay Moorington Fun Pack
ShadowWolfHount replied to Lyichir's topic in LEGO Action and Adventure Themes
That's pretty good. I was thinking of ideas for Nexo Knights in LEGO Dimensions as well. (right now with me building on concept is Jestro and his mobile.) I was thinking with Clay, that he could be in a level pack with the other model being Merlok. Well, Merlok being a trans-orange mini statue and would have a nexo shield, for the first or second model being that any none Nexo character can use the Nexo Shield to do Nexo Knight power. But anyways with your model, the first 2 models are really good looking, I like the use of those weights pieces for the wheels and the teeth piece fits very well. But the 3rd model look pretty... goofy, mainly the front part.- 8 replies

(7 Uniter torso and 18 supporter). The color scheme I have the trans-neon orange and those lava printing on the upper torso to look like the Mask of Ultimate Power is taking control of his body. The Mask of Ultimate Power; I based it off what me and other thought that mask was going to look like from the 2015 animation video. The horns thing was originally going to have Ben 10 tail pieces in 6 different colors to symbolize the 6 elements, but they looked too big and odd. However using the Savage Planet spike pieces looked way better.

Discussion: LEGO Bionicle Makuta Contest
ShadowWolfHount replied to Toa Palpo's topic in LEGO Action Figures
Meanwhile with me, I was just making a normal titan for the heck of it to enter in this contest... but I did not expect it to be the size where it can easily get on my bed. https://www.flickr.c...08/28326961970/ So then I decided to go all hell with this and made this: https://www.flickr.c...08/28612010945/ Also could someone help me with making feet, it can easily fall over if not posed in a certain way. -
Great revamp, however cutting the Uniter torso and knob box really wasn't necessary, sense you could have accomplish the same with just technic parts as what Logan did with his version. I do like that this revamp have those crystal add-on armor instead of 2015 add-on armor, along with the Uniter armor. However the hammer looks really ugly, I think the hammer would have looked better without that crystal armor piece, and used the pieces that was used on the 2015 Ekimu hammer instead.

MODS: 2016 Bionicle Summer Wave "Canister" Sets
ShadowWolfHount replied to Logan McOwen's topic in LEGO Action Figures
Looking way better then the original (well, any revamp of the summer wave sets are better then the original). Ekimu: I wished LEGO did something like that with the knob function, instead of giving Ekimu a back tumor by slapping a knob box on. But is it necessary to put in 5 of those small gear piece, because it maybe the blue pin/axle that isn't holding the hammer up? I like that there a stud place to put in a transparent piece to have the bird to fly above him. The shoulder armor are very nice, however I dislike the feet which I think the gold clown feet are much better. Also, are you planing to revamp the hammer anytime soon? Lava Beast: I like that this modded version have more trans-black instead of just those two crystal armor, I wish that LEGO didn't cut corners by using those trans-orange claws and recolored it, so I think using those other claw pieces that came in trans-neon orange would look much better. The legs are very nice looking and it having a full bear trap instead half of one. The wing... blade... thing, I'm pretty much never going to like those, I think having them for back wings (like what Trimondius did with his revision version of Lava Beast) would be much better. Storm Beast: This moded version looks... ew, but obviously still better then the original, having those crystal armor as shoulder armor look like a good idea, but the execution is poor with it noticeably sticking out. I do like the hand fix and not having that socket sticking out like a eyesore and I think it would be better a bit more bulky, maybe just adding two more crystal armor and bigger armor to the legs. Quake Beast: I love that there are those pink crystal claw pieces to fit with the printing, but it would be good to have some solid purple as well, so the purple on the mask doesn't stick out. The right arm is very odd but already looking I guess. -

That is what I was talking about, and it would be great for it to have those said spike pieces in black to show that the mask no longer have it's power. Also you do notice I was talking about the Makuta model, not that mask with that video and meant as a joke of my thoughts on those models. If your talking about the "Not some Evangelion knockoff" how is that insulting, it literally look like something you would see in that anime. -

The Mask of Ultimate Power is a huge disappointment, me and my friends were expecting something similar from the 2015 mini episodes with the 6 horns having the color of element from each regions. Not some Evangelion knockoff. Seems like John's Makuta is the only one out of those that look great, while the others... well... .Also I imagine those Skull Warrior mask are from the ones they couldn't sale :P What is funnier is that I did that with one of my 9DRC (9 days revamp to christmas) villain revamp. Extremely likely that it's not going to be in the US and/or as just the mask itself for the polybag, sense the 2016 winter wave are already retiring soon (and it haven't been a year yet). -
Long time, me hardly getting on this site. So last month I updated Nieson and gave some more color and details. I added the new pieces we gotten this year and the legs are now Ultrabuild bone pieces; which I tried to make it look like she is wearing brown boots. So what do you guys think of this newly updated version of Nieson

Dorek, I think I would have the Luke head, then the nightmare of opening the Mistika Canister again Also I agree with GK, Luke having his Pilot Suit would had been much better, plus using the clone body armor with that printing is really horrible.
