Well I just blow on the part that is about to get stickers, slowly apply it so that the sticker is straight. Then I press semi quickly and boom done, no need for hair nets or humidifiers.

Well the new sets look alright nothing stand out about them really. Umarak looks alright, though I'd need to see the final version before I pass judgement, I'll still get him though it's not like he'd be the worst set from G2. Ekimu I never saw as being a seventh Toa, I saw him more as a wise mentor that could help the toa, but as a toa himself? Hmmm. Now he looks okay, nothing really exciting from him and really hope there is some gold to break up his color scheme. The beasts look really cool , but I'd need to see them in a more finalized scenario or in person to really form a final opinion. Overall I will be buying them, just depends on wether or not I'm excited for them.

Misprints and Other LEGO Production Oddities
MrHerofan replied to Navy Trooper Fenson's topic in General LEGO Discussion
I have a few misprinted chest pieces from the 2015 Summer Bionicle wave. Such as Skull Warriors and Bashers. -
Go the FO troop transport and the build able General Grevious.
-
I do but seeing as they do nothing I might throw them out, although I don't own many of them unlike other people.

Well to be fair, the set rumors can spoil the source material, such as how certain characters might look like etc.

What 2016 Themes/Sets Are You Most Hyped For?
MrHerofan replied to Chilly_Productions's topic in General LEGO Discussion
I can't really say to be honest. So much Lego is coming out next year that, I'm not sure what to buy. Bionicle will be my go to theme, but even that isn't as exciting as 2015. Star Wars is always a little higher priced than I would prefer, Nexo Knights looks kind of cool, but still there is so many. City is okay, but a lot of the sets are rehashes. The modulars are pretty cool looking, I've never bought one, but would imagine they are pretty cool. So I guess my answer is Bionicle, and Star Wars.- 64 replies

I'm pretty excited for the new wave, but still not sure what to get. Lego Star Wars is pretty expensive, so I don't know, but the battle packs this year are really cool.

Well I haven't really been buying as much LEGO when it first comes out, so I can't really say, but the stock at some stores is worse than others. It kind of depends on where you live and how much Lego they sell.

Original Bionicle vs CCBS discussion
MrHerofan replied to MakutaOfWar's topic in LEGO Action Figures
No all that is said here is opinion. If you are saying that basic technic parts are "Bionicle" then yes they have been featured in other sets, it's called technic. Now as for more Bionicle specific parts, they have been featured in other themes yes, but not commonly. CCBS parts had been integrated into more Chima, Ninjago and other theme's sets than I'm sure the old system has. Now not CCBS is not harder to work with. It's all about wether or not you are used to the system or what type of moc you are making. If you are making something small, then yes the old system might be better. But if you are making a bigger moc, then CCBS is great. It just takes some time getting to know the dimensions of how the system works, trial and error, but you can get amazing results. Now if you combine the two, there becomes a rather inconsistent look to anything. The greatest example of this are the 2016 sets. Some of them don't blend well. There is no consistency, and well if there is one thing most of Bionicle prior had was consistency. 2016, is just way to over the place. -
Also a question: Have any lugs, or groups been made here on this website? Like do you guys have groups or meet each other at different con, and make friendships?

So Many Lego 'Themes' - Where is TLG headed?
MrHerofan replied to DrJB's topic in General LEGO Discussion
I agree with what's being said here, having more diversity helps LEGO as a company. Now as for what those themes are and what they include, some recent themes don't quite do it for me. I personally would love something like Power Miners or Atlantis. Cool sets like that are what I wanted as a kid, though sadly never got a very good majority. But really LEGO has so many cool sets for all ages, that only people like JANGBRICKS can afford. -
Well the only real sets that I bought this year was Bionicle and a random Chima polybag so this list won't be the best, but hey, maybe next year. So my favorite set that I got this year was Gali Master of Water. The set impressed me much more than I though it would, it went from being a toa that I thought was going to be a disappointment, to being my favorite. Now the least favorite set has to be Skull Scorpio. He's not really as bad as some make it seem, but there could of been more done with it I feel. The set feels very much like a statue, meant more for display with some arm and head/neck movement. Now granted his function is really fun, but the rest of him, just isn't all that great to play with, or to look at. Now the set that I thought would of been my favorite had I gotten it, would have to be none other than that of the Slave One. The ship it self is great looking, so it's no surprise that its more modern LEGO version would look so great. Now the least favorite I think would have to of gone to maybe the bear mech from Chima or Skull Scorpio, it's a tough choice.

This new Bionicle wave is a mixed bag for me. I'm sure these sets will look better in person, but right now though they seem kind of meh. I'm not much of a fan for using the Glatiorian neck as a upper arm piece, it just looks skinny compared to the rest of the arm. Second these masks have a Darth Vader effect to them. If you remember the DV helmet had two main parts, the mask and the "hat". That's what I feel like is being done here, especially in Gali, with the mask looking very close to the 2015 version. But like 2015 I'm still excited about these, but of course have my concerns for each set.

Next years city wave looks to be pretty good. Super excited about the dump truck, considering I had the older one from my child hood, but so much of it is lost now, just getting this one would bring back old memories. The rest of the wave though looks pretty neat and like most years I probably won't be able to pick most of these up, but hey whatever.

Well hello, generic dude here. I like LEGO (duh, kind of why I'm here). I'm currently a TFOL still, so I don't really know if that matters to people. Well I guess I'll start with a story about LEGO. So my adventures, like other peoples, starts when I was a little baby, I remember having all types of toys, but the only ones I remember in detail are LEGO sets and wrestling figures. So then one day I remember seeing my dad at the side porch of my house and had a good amount of my toys in boxes and got rid of them somehow. I still remember fondly of these toys, a am a little saddened by not having them. Fast forward a few years, and I start buying a few system sets here and there, but was always fascinated by LEGO. So one day during a winter break, I saw for amongst the first time with my eyes, Bionicle. I got hooked instantly into the line, and collected almost the entire 2009 line. I then proceeded to learn more about the whole lore of Bionicle and knew more than my friends about the line. I talked about it so frequently and sadly lost some friends (who ended up being pretty shady people) but yeah I was a little to obsessed. Go into the lines cancelation and I start getting into one of my childhood fears, STAR WARS, being introduced to it by a friend. Anyway, much like Bionicle I was hooked and wanted to get many sets. Going throughout the years and I just really get some small sets and an occasional Hero Factory or random set. But then in 2014, I just kind of got out of the whole game. Got very invested into band, and did marching band, which was all worth it, until concert season afterwards of where I felt tired out of trumpet after 5 years of playing. But anyway long story short this led me to Lego again, with Bionicle meeting me again in 2015, a little later in 2015 than I would prefer, but whatever. Now I'm on Eurobricks, typing this thing out. RAWR!
