Crustaceans


ToM Dracone

I've had this idea brewing in my head for literally a year. And since Kohaku agreed with it, here we go:

 

We should assemble a massive army of Bionicle crabs at Brickfair.

 

Seriously. Think about how spectacular that would be. If loads of us BZPers who came to Brickfair or sent MOCs brought along a crab or two each, we could very quickly assemble an awful lot of them. People can build Ussals in various colors, bring Hahnah crabs from Jaller Mahri, and maybe even a few Rock Ussals from the VNOLG could make an appearance. At the very least my rock ussal will be there:

I feel like including Pewku from 2003 would just be excessive, since all the rest of the crabs are small and cute and then she'd just be this ginormous behemoth and it would be bad.

 

I think we should totally make this happen. Masses of little technic crabs. Just for the hilarity of it and the confusion it would cause on the other AFOLs' faces.

 

Who's with me?

Another question. If we'll assist at BrickFair should we enter the crabs as separate MOCs, or what should we do with them?

i might make one or two.but i dont know where brick fair is,nor do i know the address.oh well.

 

just one thing:is there an age group or something like that at brick fair?

You can find all the info you need here. And no, there are no age groups or anything at Brickfair.

I'm not sure what you mean by assisting at Brickfair, but I don't think you'd really need to register the crabs as separate MOCs. You definitely shouldn't if you're just sending some Bionicle crabs (Ussals, Hahnah, etc.); if you actually made crab MOCs for this, you could register them as MOCs, but you don't need to unless you want them identified specifically as such.

If I sent, say a couple Hahnah crabs would it be a good idea to attach a small label on the underside, just identifying that it was mine?

 

Yanno, seeing as there could be loads of near-identical ones.

If you wanted to, but I was actually planning on doing just that with all the crabs we got, to keep them straight, so you don't really need to. Nothing stopping you, though!

Good, I was wondering whether I'd have to make mine stand out somehow. "Hey, mine are the ones with the spare part stuck on the bottom." :P

I made a couple crabs to add on to this (great idea, by the way!), but I couldn't find the pieces, so I have an Ussal look-alike and a crab that looks evil in a cute way. I hope that works :shrugs: .

 

Edit: I also have a Manas. Would that count under "giant crustacean" category?

I might send one or two in, I don't know. And I also have this awesome idea for a sort of crab totem pole, I don't know if that would work though.

Also, just as a side note, is the location of Brickfair the same every year?

No. The convention is actually having its first year in the Dulles Expo Center, the last few years it's been at a Sheraton hotel.

So it's never been out of Virginia?
