Type of plastic Lego's made of. I am really hyped for this game, gonna get it for PS3. New videos look great.
-
And I can send you the avi file if that link goes down too. You silly! I realized that waay back in '06. The future is looking bright, though. Hope Man-Mata Nui is in the CGI. And where did LEGO decide to use Indiana Jones music and the Final Countdown?
-
I agree, and I've always thought that the flaws in the story were caused by the sets - when Greg has to shoehorn all these things in along with the story that he wants - like the embarrassing plot device that is why Hydraxon is alive- it doesn't work. But when the sets are good [like this spring, or '04 when Greg was new at this] the story seems good. The serials seem a good answer to this [no having to shove in two more Matoran this summer, they have a serial]. But if the end of the year and 09 match the hyperbole, then I'll be happy. Did anyone else here notice the Indiana Jones music at the end, right when Mata Nui was introduced? And Europe, too. Last things I had expected for Bionicle, with their last real-world music campaign [read - idiotic All American Rejects], I was expecting the Scissor Sisters. And another thought - I'm full of them, if you ever need an Aztec zombie movie, for example - does the way the end was posed 'go back in time', when Greg says flashback stories are bad, and that glowing from the island Mata Nui, and the fact that man-Mata Nui was surrounded by clouds, make you think Mata Nui's up on Mata Nui?

I agree with visorak-kal. But apparantly there's some sort of tizzy about a spoiler video being released [on another site] on BZP, anyone found this video? What they're saying - Recently a video was released on another website that contained spoilers of the 2008 storyline. The movie was not supposed to be released yet and will soon be taken offline. Do NOT discuss this video on BZPower. Might be this - http://video.aol.com/video-detail/spoilers...istika/61224957 but most likely not.

That was me who mentioned aforementioned '01-'06 link. I said the 'similar feel' [which I feel was a bit of a lie on his part - he's said '06 is supposed to be dark, whereas '01 always struck me as kind of innocent and mythological] was trees. And how I would have designed Miserix - I don't like the whole idea that All Makuta Have Rejected Goodness. Why would Miserix do so if it gets him nowhere? What I imagined him as was more of a benevolent makuta than the others. He'd be humanoid, but with extra arms just in case. And no weapons. Maybe the extra arms would be more like bludgeons, but not the frakking Staff Of Repetitiveness [every year, bar '02, '04, and '07, has had at least one staff-wielding character.]. And NOT Mata Red. Iron and brown [iron for metal and brown to stick it to LEGO], and maybe lime for contrast. And some nice wings. Not Godzilla and Saphira's love child.
-
OH GOD!!!! What...is that? Red Saphira with a stick? Now, I would have picked iron or brown. Most people would have used a dark color. Maybe that would have made Godzilla here stand out. But...I would at least have given him a mask. Now GregF is forced to give him a lame mask power [i would have been much happier with a Mask of Intangibility in plastic then a Mask of Silence, they can already do that] instead of something useful [golly, aren't the Calix, mask of Probability and mask of Possibilities the exact same thing?]. Disgusting. And it resembles the Tahtorak a lot. Dumb. Again, I know a bearlizard thing straight out of bad fantasy is somewhat original - but so would be introducing the fact that, for once, a character has sexuality - remember Nuhrii, who's old news? He's gay. [sorry, forgot, JK Rowling just did that a while back]. We all had in our heads a dark colored, possibly winged, most likely metallic-highlited fellow, or maybe something closer to MoD's Evil Tahu - looking more like the first appearance of Makuta. I will give you a cookie if you like this model. Here's an idea - When making a contest whose results affect something someone cares about, DO NOT USE OVERPRIVELEGED AMERICAN KIDS [and as a rule of thumb - not a 12-year old], USE PEOPLE WHO CAN BUILD. I'm sure we'd all be happy if this was a BZP contest, for all its rules and bonesiii, at least it's members know what to build. I like that combo model though, it rocks. Crappy name though. EDIT - Here's an idea, switch'em around. Give the crappy model the crappy name, and make the halfway decent thing Miserix.
-
I wish, they'll still all have the exact same Inika build, the masks will still be sub-par compared to '01, and you know that no matter how good the spring line-up is, they'll ruin it come summer. Case study - this year.

Doctor Who, Torchwood, Sarah Jane Adventures...

Cybermen statues lining the garden, a TARDIS fountain, and in my kitchen I have a TARDIS roundel lazy susan. Not to mention my bathroom is decorated so that my toilet becomes the Eye of Harmony from the TV movie. And my closet is the TARDIS wardrobe. I will drive the Whomobile. And at my job at Industrial Electromatics, I will wear a rainbow suit and be the laughingstock of my inferiors. Oh, and this thing Just Cybermen, nothing much. -

Gonna make a BL order soon so I can make some Doctor Who figs- when I have them I'll have made the first 3 purist Cybermen on BS [unless someone else gets there first!!!] And after that I have a Colonial One [from Battlestar Galactica] WIP that I've kind of stopped work on, but I'll try and restart.

Possessions: See Armament, + telescope[like what pirates have, a nice handheld one] + a nice warm parka Favorite Activity: Doing various things, ranging from destroying enemies to petting a nice fluffy rabbit :)
-
Meh, not really, files aren't public btw. Would this be the same movie that Christopher Eccleston'll be in?
-
Ooooh, I'm interested. Haven't played a text-based RPG since the Great HISTORICAL Lego War!! Dibs on Emirate Master Hewkii*! *The rules of Dibs state that now nobody else may ever be Emirate Master Hewkii.
-
I have a Viking-Force idea for this... can it be non-contemporary and non-realistic?
-
Hi, I'm just starting selling some LEGO things [mostly boxes so far], and I was wondering- Is there any market for Bionicle canisters?
-
That picture of Rockoh makes it look good- I might try and get it. Worst name in all languages ever though.
-
Lol, how'd you get in the running for the prize then?
-
Curse those little kiddies and their Bionicle Parts >:-)
-
Well, I have a bit of personal BIONews- remember that YTV Contest someone mentioned a few pages back? Well, I won a couple figs in it, still not sure which, but pics'll be up when I recieve them. :-$
-
Yay! Swastika doors! But do they mean actual swastikas, or a toned-down thing that represents the baddies?
-
No, they don't. Actually, I like their methodology. I think I'll go around and make dupe accounts that mimic others- who knows, maybe GregF'll come here. I'll make my posts fit his personality. Or maybe we'll see some Outpost Gallifrey moderators, or xwingyoda's long lost brother, .xwingyoda. My posts will fit their personalities, so it's okay. Complete interlocking. Never know the difference until someone smart intervenes and stops it. Now replace 'dupe accounts' with 'clone bricks' and any member name like 'GregF' or 'Outpost Gallifrey Moderators' with a Lego theme name, like 'Exo-Force', or 'Castle'.
-
Wait, he was actually banned? Darn, that's too bad. What happened?
-
Yeah, it's a huge and wonderful coincidence that the only two Exo-Force torsos I have work great for pilots and the hangar bay crew- I have a Tyrol minifig I might put up soon.
-
Put up my newest entry- Star Wars! Though I'm waiting for the Bionicle and Galidor entries...

Here's my next entry. Licensed- Star Wars Clone Speeder 27 pcs + fig Parts screenie- Ta-da!
