Alright, I might be going nuts here, but I cannot recall prior to this update whether or not they added these parts, and nobody has mentioned it yet, so let's bring it up and see what happens. 3x3 plate, and inverted 2x2 tile. To the best of my knowledge, these two elements have never been in LDD prior to this update, nor do they exist in the real world. Any insight, or am I just crazy?

Man, given the hunk of parts here, even I could probably build something this year in this theme. Glad I sent you two :P I look forward to the following writeups, Aanchir.

Looks amazing, guys. I look forward to picking up Shock Trooper armor in the near future. Too bad we can't get Rec-Er, should we call it Survey?

Oh silly Erebus... Coulda told me you posted this over here. I could easily have helped out by making EB-specific banners too. So yeah, buy GN8 and 9 and stuff. Then buy GN 10 : D

So, who wants to thank the nice Swertman? http://www.majhost.com/gallery/Swert109/BS.../bmmatanui2.jpg Just remember, it is 2,153 pixels. HIGH. You have now been warned. Don't say I didn't do so. For reference, this is the Brickmaster poster from this month's issue. I assume since Europe does NOT get this, you didn't see this before. So now you did. For note: five scanning sessions, photomerging in Photoshop, and 2 hours of fold line removal went into this project. PLEASE don't just report it to BZP news without considering how much work went into bringing this here. -Swert

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zeFLjmPOo3k Newest clip. Totally worth it. -Swert

And the other half have COLLECTIBLE KANOHI. As the owner of BS01, I take offense to that, but that is your opinion.

Yeah, I doubt they'd do that. If they did, they'd lose a ton of credibility. We'd be looking at Summer 2010 content in June 2010 and wonder if it was really that. Plus, why drop names such as that? You're better off just saying that Lhikan was coming back and bringing Matoro right behind him. -Swert

Aaand that just proves it for me. If Bink decided to surf over to comment on it, it's probably fake. Ah well, better luck next year, EB. -Swert

... *shuffles into convo late* I think the lists are all fake. But I'll still keep them off of BS01. *shuffles back out*

Correct.

Y'know, with all that in mind, I'm gonna have to ask my staff to work double shifts to keep this stuff off of BS01. People would jump at the opportunity to add stuff like this to it.

I dunno, at this rate I'm kinda glad we didn't get the clip. For the most part, I want to be mostly surprised with the story. As it is, there is a great chance of that still happening. Besides, who wants to see a camcorder viewing of the clip? Horrible quality, no tripod, and chances are unallowed by Lego anyway. No thank you. -Swert

I'm very happy with the animation style so far, the voice work is definately above that done in Bionicle 1, and I'm really excited to see this movie. I just can't wait for the next clip. Next monday can't come any sooner, I swear.

Hey folks, bit of a warning about the BS01 Core War thing, you need to be a BZP member to post a topic, HOWEVER there will be an email set up to send for non-BZP members to enter. But you'd need to be a BS01 member instead. And before you think I don't know what I'm saying, I'll prove it to users who don't know who I am ;) And yes, I also plan to enter, if the community allows me to. We'll be hiring judges to decide the winners. -Swert

... Except it's not a Rahi XD

Know what would make the scene better? Needed Click to reply back in shield mode. That woulda been hilarious, and adds a new advantage to Mata Nui's arsenal. Imagine his own shield giving him notes on what happens on his blind side. That'd be a cool option.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T-3wAFKNVfY I uploaded it to YT for people who don't want to go hunting for it. Yeah, I'm way happy with the voice acting already. The calming voice of Michael Dorn surpasses the opening with Jaller in Mask of Light by light years. "TEH-KUUAAH!" That voice would haunt even the bravest of Skrall.

So true, JINZO... so true. Though on the other hand, PD did serve his purpose to entertain the people. For example, getting himself banned because his Toa Modifications were "legitimate MOCs" and he'll stick to the story. But one does have to admit, his Bohrok ornaments for Christmas trees was a bit creative, if only a bit dumb (try explaining that to the in-laws every year.) Anyway, I still figure the best bet they have is to shut down everything before anybody gets a chance to say goodbye to it. Leave no sentimental attachment. Or just ban the trolls. But, they won't. -Swert

Since I'm mostly in the know about it, let me be the first to say this is both a good idea, and a bad one. Good because it's a reboot. Bad because for starters, Imatron won't ban the people who helped drive the forums down the toilet in the first place, and he's demanding he keep his general Video Game forum on the forums, only because he wishes to discuss them there, and ignoring even his own brother's claim that doing so would only cater to him, not the community. And I was already banned (plus asked for my account deleted), because I flamed one of the bigger trolls. Imatron's defending them like crazy. It pisses me off, and that's why I stay on BS01. It's safer there (helps I know the owner... oh wait...) -Swert

That's good for some, but the book spoilers are posted one full month after the first confirmed sale date. So, you'll be waiting quite a long time. (My rules, I'm not changing them) -Swert

Doubtful. The species already exists, that's been confirmed. However, I'd imagine the ability to "control" Rahi, which by extension means other creatures, is well within Mata Nui's power, even seperated from his own body. It's a nice little set, but I am glad it's a Brickmaster exclusive, means I wouldn't have to buy it. I don't think many people -would- buy it. -Swert

Right, I kinda have difficulties believing you were in a team to product test. If you were, you just kinda violated your Non-Disclosure Agreement which I'm sure they asked you to sign. As you can imagine, I'm having problems believing the story a bit. I do fully apologize in advance if you happen to have proof of this product test. -Swert Well, I decided to both re-read it, and look up your history, found you seem to work on the actual team, but regardless it still seems like a NDA-breaking offense to tell us about it. Still, I do apologize for the accusation that you didn't do it, because if this is the case, there would be no proof. -Swert

Hello, you young whippersnappers. I joined that place in 03. Remember that~

Believe me, we tried to get any information from Greg on what he'd expect to see. He says, paraphrased, "Since he won't show up in story, that's not what we were concerned about. That's what your contest is for." But I bet he wanted to say, "lol u nub u dun get certavus description." Or similar. Who knows. Point is, he shouldn't look overmassing, and we're limiting MOC height to Inika canister, also known as 9 Inches or 22.9 CM. Have fun. Believe me, if this were Toa V, you'd all be enjoying it, I'd make damn sure of that fact. Unlike MIB, I know how to make a point, and I'm not an idiot. Plus, I don't spam PM people on BZP, which immediately puts me above them. Then again, that also puts them below Sea Sponges in terms of awesomeness in the world. Now that's low. -Swert
