  1. Famous con-artist. Not that he actually cares about that but still a nice achievement
  2. I don't know much about Galidor but I do know that the Tager set is pretty hard to find. So I thought I would make my own version of it. (Drill weapon not included)
  3. Is it allowed to use pieces where the print is removed from. For example this Star Wars chest piece but without all the green and brown printing
  4. You know, from that one game
  5. | | Metalbeard in all his glory, now with 100% more Bionicle pieces. (accessories and animals included)
  6. There is a difference between giving credit to a whole forum and the actual person who created it.
  7. Howdy partner I heard you wanted more Bionicle western MOCs Let me help you with that The hat is a BEN 10 Humungousaur shoulder piece flipped inside. The dark tan CCBS shells are from a Chima Figure.
  8. The source has been correct with previous Hero Factory sets as well so we trust it 100% (it is also affiliated with LEGO itself making it even more trustworthy) Way too early to get our hands on things like that
  9. Hello Eurobricks You might have heard the rumor of a new constraction that LEGO is gonna release in 2015 or maybe in the winter of 2014. We've been told that is was going to be a new line right? Well people, we've been misled. On behalf of "Piece Out: Bionicle MOCists" we decided to spread the proof so that all BIONICLE fans can rejoice once more. The picture was taken by a member of our MOCing group. We can say with 100% certainty that this isn't a fake picture and it took him several days to get his hands on it.
  10. A pirate captain that lost his right leg and both of his eyes when his first mate betrayed him. That didn't stop him and he still continued to sail in circles for years Credit for the hat and peg leg goes to Elzy
  11. I wish I could reply on Flickr but apparently Facebook users can't sign in without them changing their accounts to a Yahoo one. Thanks for posting it here but am I allowed to also post it in the Action Figures forum as well? I'm not that familiar with the rules here on Eurobricks. Beard are an important factor for pirate captains. The fact that his face is more beard than face is because of the selection of pieces. The beard is the head piece of the Chima 70200 Chi Laval Ultrabuild set, it only has one connection point and didn't leave much room for other things like eyes. But I'm glad that some non-Bionicle builders like this creation. (It is something that doesn't happen too much in the Bionicle/Hero Factory community )
  12. Flickr | Brickshelf "The new TX4 model is an improvement of the older XT4 model. TX4 stands for "Tougher XT4 with 4 spinning blades". The TX4 models are easily reprogrammed to fit all your needs, from slicing vegetables to taking over the galaxy. " ~Makuro Industries The only way I wanted to revamp XT4 was by giving him a spinning function. Because all cartoon robots that have sawblades can do that, right? Those panels at his head were added to give his body build an "X" shape with the spinning function at the intersection. And spinning function because that was the whole idea behind this.
  13. I always compare the possibility of a BIONICLE comeback with other toy lines. I remember many years ago those spinning tops called Beyblade. I really liked them and many kids in the school collected them and played with them on the playground. Of course like every toy line it gets replaced by something else that gets the interest of kids. But 1 or 2 years ago Beyblade made a comeback with a reboot getting the interest of kids again. But BIONICLE is different. It was a toy that evolved for 10 years. And that is an important factor. You can't really replace something people liked for 10 years. We all know what hate Hero Factory sometimes get (especially the first year of its introduction). And we all know you can never replace BIONICLE. The story, the involvement of the fans, I can go on and on because I was there from the start. Does that mean I absolutely want it to return? No, it was there when I needed it. When I was a child and played with it in ways I'll never do again. Personal opinions aside and now to the question of the topic I see three options how BIONICLE could return. All three option will of course be using the CCBS. And I'll have no problem with it. We're all used the the CCBS now and it works better than the older Technic based system IMO. 1) A reboot of the story Simple said: the 2001 vibe all over again. The simple story, character going on a heroic quest to collect their powers and defeat the evil that lurks around the island. Back to Mata Nui, back to where it all began and start over. 2) Continuation of the story We continue where we left. We won that war against the evil that threatened us for years and we are on Spherus Magna trying to build up a society between different species and races. However that doesn't mean Spherus magna is safe. There are still evil creatures around. main antagonist would be the Skakdi Fusion. And we would start with a team of new Glatorian and/or Toa to go on a quest to defeat him. 3) Prequel There are so many untold stories and unexplored locations in the Matoran Universe that we never saw. The story would take place in the same universe but way before the events of the awakening of Mata Nui and in the southern parts of the Matoran Universe. Or we can go the untold stories of Bara Magna. We have endless possibilities that would be interesting for new fans as they won't need to know the story that LEGO told us for 10 years. And it would please old fans with new stories of their favourite toy line. But in the end, it is still the LEGO company that makes the decision for us.
  14. Well since you asked I call him Dr. Bananabot :p
  15. Unless Lego will ever make one at a higher resolution this is the best there is. I just found the file on the official website
  16. Am I the only one who find the background of the current website awesome? I found the original file used and it makes a really cool wallpaper on my pc :p Rocka vs. Black Phantom Background
  17. Toa Ignika + Pohatu + Vamprah = Niazesk And Fero and Skirmix + Malum = Sand Stalker They did combined smaller sets with larger ones ;-) Can't wait to see the combination models for this wave
  18. Nobody uploaded the pic from the Hero Factory display, someone had all the HF sets displayed there. Also there was a little Bionicle/HF MOC booth. I have some pic's of that but not so clear =S
  19. MOCPages (for more angles) *ALERT* During the chaos Black Phantom created one of Hero Factory's most wanted criminals also escaped. Meltdown is back with improved Radioactive Sludge Shooters and more radioactive materials. Do not come in direct contact with Meltdown, if you see this criminal please contact Hero Factory's call center at 1-888-4-HEROFACTORY.
  20. Showing how it shoots Brickshelf Gallery Flickr MOCPages I builded this tank for a little challenge for a group on Flickr. The theme was World War III. Since it can possibly happen in the future I gave him an EMP cannon. The reason why I added the flag of Belgium in this MOC is because 1) I live in Belgium 2) Belgium was involved with the previous 2 World Wars. Let us hope we will never face such a thing again. Now back to the MOC. I first builded the wheels and so moved one to the rest. SInce it had a kind of cartoonisch feel to it I tried to keep that feel in whole the MOC. And I wanted to make him dark-green so I used some Dark-green pieces that are hard to use Enjoy, Sparky
  21. I'm going on friday the 21st. Some of my Bionicle/Hero Factory sets will be standing there ;-)
  22. Flickr Brickshelf MOCPages DeviantArt The links are just giving to those who are on those places. I started from the head so to the body, arms and then the legs. The lower half of the body could have been done so much better but it just that I don't have much gold pieces. For those who wonder that is Rocka's 3.0 helmet reversed. This is also the first time I cropped a MOC from the background so it's not done perfectly
  23. The one and only But set designers would never make this model since it uses friction with the claws are the eyes are just held in place by the WD face. Those pieces are the spare parts of the set. I could make the tail longer but then the color sheme would't look as good as now. I wanted the body the way it it now, with much ball joint and making a more HF like design. This however makes it messy and sadly I didn't had enought white piece to cover the underbody in a good way. The model is very strong. The pins in the body prevent the body from falling apart or moving around. It's indeed a shame that you even with a different set you can build a scorpio like set and make it look better. Also thanks for your review/thoughts about it, you really take your time to do such thing don't you? To all the rest that commented, thanks ^_^
  24. Sorry that some of you guys thought this was Rhinox from Beast Wars, I never saw Beast Wars so I didn't know about that name. Still I'm glad you guys liked the model
  25. "Witch Doctor has found new power to prevent the Heroes from stopping him. Rhinox has more strenght and speed than Raw-Jaw making him one of the strongest beasts on Quatros." Side Only builded out of Hero Factory's set "Scorpio"
