  1. Well, but one think I dislike about this comic is the transformation. "Upgrade"? Lame. It happened too quickly, and no one can dispute the similarities to the Toa Nuva's transformation. Now that is an aspect of Bionicle that I miss. Oh well.
  2. THANK YOU SO MUCH. Anyway, a few things I noticed instantly on the cover: 1) Why do they still have 4 fingers? Was the artist not informed of the new hands? 2) How goofy Furno's goggles look head on. 3) Where are their spikes? 4) Stormer's face ironically blocked off by the HF logo. Great read!
  3. Agreed. I never saw any of the SW films in cinemas, and Episodes I and II are pointless anyways. Even though I'm not for 3D, I'd jump for a chance to catch SW films in the theaters.
  4. To be honest, Ahsoka's growing on me. She's no longer that annoying little Padawan she was in the movie and seasons 1/2. Plus, her new outfit and dual lightsabers are really awesome. Well, I like Fives more of the two. (Don't ask.) Still, sad to see Echo go, I do hope they don't kill Fives off, however unlikely. Here's to hoping we see the clones start wearing Phase II armour in Season 4.
  5. Yeah, I hope there're more sets like this Summer's Dathomir Speeder, small sets with key characters. (Although in this case, the set itself leaves more to be desired.) Come on, Lego. Endor BPs!
  6. Any news on when Ordeal of Fire will start airing?
  7. Sounds interesting. Though I doubt it, if those rumours are true, I wonder if the Yoda included in Yoda's hut will have the CW or OT head.
  8. Anyway, Furno and Nex are really growing on me, for some reason. The only flaw I see with Furno is his lack of armour on his thighs, but otherwise he looks pretty good. The helmet is fantastic, and his wings are starting to look better. Not sure if I'll get him though, don't really like his reuse of weapons. As for Nex... Well, I can't explain it, but I'm starting to like him.
  9. Good one Jedd! I remember that scene in Episode III clearly, with Obi-Wan in CW Anakin's position of course. As for Praiter... Fried Calamari, anyone?
  10. I share your pain, but I just entered JC this year so NS's still a while away for me. Keep up the good work, guys. I check in here after a hard day at school every day to get a few laughs, it's a good way to de-stress. As for Legonator's Fett "I am your father" one... I TOTALLY SAW THAT COMING.
  11. For some reason Bulk's badge really reminds me of the police dog emblem in the City sets. Anyway, any idea how Fang's head is attached to its body?
  12. Seems Fangz also uses the abovementioned piece to attach the first 2 back spikes, while the third is on a ball attached to the torso.
  13. Well, I was referring to the connection between the blade and the Exo-Force arm. The spikes in the 2.0 sets had longer pins that the pieces with 2 pins (Okay, this sounds REALLY confusing, but I can't think of another way to get my point across ) so they'd be more secure. Anyway, any chance Bulk's blades will be recoloured to silver like on the prelims?
  14. Thanks for the pic, Bfahome - nearly forgot about BZP's coverage. Anyway: I'm a bit worried here - with the red blade pieces (which I hope get recoloured to silver) attached to the Exo-Force arm only by a single half-pin, wouldn't that make them extremely flimsy and loose?
  15. Fangz looks really cool, but I don't see how the spears are supposed to serve as fangs. They look odd attached to the head with the old hand piece. I'm probably removing it when I get him. Oh, and thanks for the link to the gallery, Aanchir!
  16. Does Witch Doctor have a left hand, or does the entire arm assembly end with the Thornax launcher?
  17. I think he means having new armour pieces each wave. While that would be nice it's certainly quite unreasonable, considering the huge amount of new molds that are non-armour that we're getting. Thank you, Lego. I know I'll probably get killed for this but HF is filling in Bionicle's shoes very well.
  18. Dammit, Lego. The Winter sets just arrived in Singapore, how do you expect me to buy them with these pictures? In all seriousness, these sets are nothing short of AMAZING. I'm with The Dor on this one - loving the new system of armour-on-old-skeleton sets. I just got Jetbug, and I don't know how I'm going to bring myself to get any of the 2.0 Heroes after seeing these. Bulk: I already wanted him after seeing the Creep Crushers pictures, now I want him even more. The switch from silver to blood red blades is really awesome. The only downside is the asymmetrical thighs due to the badge, but I can manage. Stringer: Losing out to Bulk now in terms of my favourite, but still loving him. Can't see much with all that black, but he looks great. Rocka: GOLD. WOOHOO. Must get. 'Nuff said. Fangz: BRILLIANT. I see an articulated back there. This could potentially be one of the best Rahi sets ever. My sole gripe is the use of spears for fangs. No matter, easily replaceable. Raw-Jaw: Can't make out what exactly it is, but it looks pretty cool. Love the huge number of Exo-Force arms. Witch Doctor: Woah. While I preferred the old hugeass staff, it still looks great. I'll have to see the building instructions before deciding though.
  19. Nice ones Jedd! Ackbar never gets old. Well sucks to be Singaporean in that aspect. I'm glad for the Mace Windu JSF though, great way to get him. Great one too Luxor Samuel L. Jackson is a real BAMF. Cloney, the snips one was hilarious. I have no idea how you people manage to keep coming up with these puns. Keep up the groaners, no matter how lame they are, as long as they get us laughs they're welcome.
  20. Nice ones once again Jedd! Though the second one doesn't have much relevance to SW, it's still funny. Gotta love Glee.
  21. This is amazing! I like what you did with Ahsoka there. Anyway, was the droid supposed to be based off Cad Bane's little droid Todo? That was the first thing I thought when I saw it. The head and legs pull off the Todo look nicely.
  22. Oh, yeah. Forgot about them store exclusives. The Winter wave has just arrived here in Singapore, I can't wait to get my hands on new sets. Woohoo!
  23. Wait... 6 new villains? Aren't there only 5? Or is there something about Rocka XL we don't yet know about? Though I doubt Rocka XL will be a villain.
  24. You forgot to add in Anakin and Asajj with their updated costumes.
  25. Come on, Lego... Underwater theme! I'm really glad with how Hero Factory is turning out. Can't wait for more new pieces and the surprises to come in 2012. (That's me, talking about 2012 when the Winter 2011 wave hasn't even arrived in my country yet...) The possibilities with this new system is endless. Makes me wonder if Lego inspired the armour-on-skeleton build from Gunpla building. Master Grade Gundams are built in exactly the same way. I never thought I would see it in Lego, so I'm quite happy with it. On a side note, when exactly is Toy Fair?
