I received a sealed dino attack t1 typhoon for christmas this year, and upon opening the t-rex, the arms had a grease like coat on them the left finger prints. the legs did not however. here it is in comparison with a dino attack raptor I've had for a while. the same thing was on the wings and legs for the pterodactyl. but it easily rubs off. so what I'm asking is has anyone else noticed this with other lego pieces? and do you know why some parts have this?

I was given the cuuso delorian and the old dino attack typhoon.

did you close your browser? if you didnt, you should be able to click the back button on your browser to where the review was. if you look at the bottom of where you type, there should be a thing that says "last auto saved" if you click that, it should come back.

I have agree with VBBN, I'm not bashing the new system, Its just not my thing. and while the newer bionicle sets may have had less articulation, I preferred the overall look and feel.

Thanks for the feedback guys! much appreciated.

I see your point, but I'm referring to the older bionicle sets. like these. and sure, there's a lot of room technic in the recent HF, but with the recent stuff all of the armor and torso parts are connected by ball and socket joints, with little to no technic involved.

I agree with this completely, the older bionicle sets had a more technic oriented building style that seems lost with hero factory. If this new theme brings back the old style construction I would be interested.

I recently watched spaceballs. "corporal, get me a video cassette of spaceballs the movie!"

I was looking through the bionicle review index and saw that several sets were not reviewed. I have an extensive collection of bionicle myself, so here's my best try at filling in some of the gaps. bionicle review: gadunka set name: gadunka set number: 8922 theme: bionicle piece count: 176 price: US $20 EUR £14.99 date released: 2007 I apologize for some of the blurry photos, I haven't mastered my camera skills yet. As far as his story goes, gadunka was originally a tiny sea creature, who was exposed to the mask of life, which transformed him into this giant monster. with his newfound strength, he went on a rampage attacking the toa. later on the mask reversed its effect and transformed him back. I don't have the box, so I'll go to the instructions. instructions: Here we see gadunka in an attack stance, standing over a pit of some kind. I liked the 2007 box design. it appears as if you were viewing it from some kind of scope or radar. and the underwater effect is represented well. the figure front: side: back: Gadunka is a very peculiar titan, he has an unusually wide and thick torso, and a huge gaping jaw, which makes for a very bulky look. His weapons include three claws on each hand, and a squid launcher. the color scheme is primarily dark blue, with silver and some lighter blue highlights. torso: It's an interesting build. using three inika torsos and a 2004 matoran torso. the lighter blue hordika limbs provide connection for gadunka's arms, his head connects the two ball joints up top. his legs connect to the four ball joints to the sides. two "squids" are included. although there are supposed to be an orangish-yellowish color, my cats chewed them up. so they have been replaced with blue ones. here he is next to toa nuparu for size reference. He's not much taller than the average bionicle, but he is much thicker and wider. arms: The arms have kalmah armor in silver, (which was new at the time) dark blue rahkshi legs, and three small blades. (I believe those were introduced in 2007 as well) the hands make use of these small ball joints. which provide a good range of motion the middle one however, does not move. squid launcher: the infamous squid launcher. these have a pretty bad reputation. I actually like this things. although the idea of using live squid for ammo seems kinda odd. One thing I don't understand is if gadunka is just some kind of creature, how did he obtain a squid launcher and figure out how to operate it? legs: Interesting parts on the legs include silver piraka feet, vahki legs, inika arm armor, and these support type things. Again we have a very bulky look portrayed. which works well for this figure. head: The head is huge! you could probably fit one of the old matoran in there! the blue skull piece is glow in the dark, and it uses silver ehlek spines for teeth, a dark red clawed piraka foot for a tongue, and neon green bohrok eyes. Here's gadunka and toa nuparu in battle. Overall, it's a good set with decent pose ability and some interesting parts. it's bulky and intimidating compared to other bionicles. for a price range of about $20, i would recommend it. thanks for reading.

I agree completely. The architecture sets have something like this, so it would be nice to see that kind of thing expand to other themes. at least have the designer(s) credited in the back of the instructions. A lot of creativity goes into these sets.

I haven't been doing much big building recently, but 5 or so years ago when the clone wars republic gunship came out it took me about 6 hours. (the pieces where not sorted.

The new jurassic park movie comes out summer 2015, I would love to see sets based of the new movie and the original three.

def leppard is one of my favorite bands, they have a lot of great music. ac/dc, kiss, bon jovi, and Cinderella are great too.

I haven't had many problems with the older bionicle sets, but in 2008 they changed the joints. these new type had several problems, such as becoming loose, cracking, and snapping. but the new 2011 hero factory joints seem to hold up well. I would recommend them.

That seems quite odd. you could try uninstalling the program then re-installing. but some of the experts might know better then I do.

It looks like medium blue to me, but don't quote me on this.

It likes like there's a grey piece of some sort that attaches to the blaster and is pressed down, which launches the stud.

Are you using ldd extended? if so, there should be a toolbar at the top. click the paint bucket. Now under it you should see a black square. click that and it will display a large variety of colors to choose from.

Excellent work! the detail put into each room is outstanding! awesome MOC..

That's a lot of mandalorians you have there! the base looks nice, it reminds me of what me and my friends used to build. *nostalgia*

I have to agree, luckily I have a 2005 one lying around somewhere.

When stepping on lego doesn't hurt anymore.

Kind of, but I'm referring to the single faction $12 sets.

I agree, but I think there should be a droid battle pack too, haven't had one of those in a while.

well it's about time. I'm not a huge army builder, but still kinda disappointing they're only in one set.
