  1. After seeing what little amount of Bionicle reviews there were, I decided to review my favorite first wave Glatorian. Keep in mind that I no longer have the instructions or the original canister, but those things are not crucial to the set. The canister, which is not mine, just a picture of the one on Lego.com, but it certainly does do a good job of making Vorox look tempting to get. Here is all the pieces laid out. I love the color scheme, perfect for hiding in the desert sands of Bara Magna (Note: The long black stick is not original, it is slightly longer then the one in the set, and also note his thornax launcher is not present because i broke it One of my three favorite pieces of the set, the armor. Although its is just recolored Skrall armor, it has the perfect balance of style and barbarism My only problem with this set, is the new type of joint connectors, I refer to them as "hands". The sides that grip the ball joints are much thinner then older versions and break almost routinely, so be very gentle when MOCing with them Another of my favorite pieces, his helmet. It attaches to the top of his head, and leaves his mouth exposed, giving him a cool gladiator look Although just like all Glatorian helmets, it leaves the back of his head exposed. Here is his body midway through construction. Vorox does not have traditional body armor, just a regular torso turned backwards here are his feet and fists attached, which leads me to my final favorite detail of the set... ...the fists! All Bara Magna characters with the exception of Fero, have them, and I have to say they are one of the coolest pieces I have seen. It allows for much cooler poses as well as better for playing, especially punching during play Here he is all but completed. Can't you just picture him digging out of the sand right in front of an unfortunate Agori? Something about Vorox just makes him look so amazingly cool to me, especially with his fifth apendage The tail is great as a second attacking weapon and also for balancing during those black-belt, joint breaking kicks Personally, I like shedding his weapons and putting him in beast mode, ready to leap towards unfortunate travelers. "Mmmm, I bet they have got enough money for me to buy that Pure-bred Rock steed!" Vorox enjoys shaking down the wealthy Agori! Pros: Great color scheme Unique helmet lots of great pieces for MOCing Just pure awesome Cons: Weapon could look a little more...desert joints break easily You don't have one yet Thanks for reading! I just read a reply pointing out my error in head attachment, I have had this set since it very first came out, like first day it was available at TRU and I'm the kind of person who has to modify all their sets, so I guess I forgot its original build. Sorry guys, won't happen again
  2. I took some of my cooler figures to my friends house, and we set up this nice little skrimish. Some of the figures are MOCs, but most are real sets. Enjoy! THE TEAMS A rabble of unsavory MOCs and rejects No one suspects the average brute to be one of the most evil minds on Bara Magna... Surprise strike team waits to tear into the enemies left flank and their leaders... And Those who oppose them A band of experienced, battle-hardened warriors And their leaders. sorry about the blurriness on this one here is all the sides about to face off The lieutenants face off first The commanders plunge into a narrow corridor (where numbers count for nothing...[300!]) Ackar leaps at the enemy point man. (sorry about poor editing) But his strike is strong and precise The two armies meet! The battle is too big to all be captured in one shot a MOC narrowly avoids a strike from a Skrall shield My personal favorite: The MOC-MOC choking chain the two strongest of the sides inevitably meet Who will win? "Goodbye Gelu" Vastus uses his trademark spine blaster on a MOC We see who won that competition Mata Nui gives new meaning to "The best offense is a good defense." Thanks to my friend Nick, who is not a eurobrick member, for supplying most of the figures, the house, the camera, and the computer!
  3. For a While now I have been neglecting my Bionicles/Legos. So I rebuilt all my most recent figures and made a funny scene with them. I am sorry if the quality of photos is a bit bad, my camera is poor. The nefarious gang takes inventory of their illegal weapons And then... The Glatorian raid an illegal weapons cache! "Everyone get down!" Aerial view of the same shot Ackar knows to keep his sights on that skrall Strakk doesn't put up a fight. He knows when the time is to fight back... Malum is so strong his hands cannot be bound. It takes two of Ackar's Strongest agents to take him away. Mata Nui looks on in disappointment at Bara Magna's generation Y Mata Nui realizes Skrall is gone And...after me being too noob to create a chase scene... "Its over kid." "Not until Tuma rules Bara Magna!" At that, the Skrall leaps over the wall More to come when my camera is returned by my sister...Thanks for reading!
  4. I would like to see mods people have done on existing sets (you know, the ones that were just calling out your name to get a minigun on its side )
