Phantom Neo Shifters

Here they are, the long awaited final run of Neo Shifters sets. These are hard to find, and if you can't find them locally, check out Amazon.com. I got lucky and found the whole set for retail price with free shipping. DO NOT OVERPAY! These sets are 11.99   Featured in this blog, are the four primary shifters. I will address Duplicon and the small sets in another entry. After that, I will do an entry about the whole line as well as the custom sets I have assembled.   I have noticed that the pl

How Can They Be This Cool?!?

I got 4 of the 6 new neo shifters! Yeah yeah yeah, they are mega blocks, who cares. I like em for their action figure quality, as I was an action figure collector long before being a lego builder.   These are by far the coolest looking Neo Shifters. While the Paladins feature the older parts design, their new wings, masks and weapons are totally awesome! And the Templars!!!! The Templars are So AWESOME! Please see pics...... And please click the pics to see bigger pics!   Here we have the Pal

Customized Helmet! Waooh! :o

I took my all black Shoei RF-200 helmet that I got for $5, and decided to add some custom decals to it to detract from its boringness. I went to the hardware store and picked up a wide roll of red reflective tape, and a narrow roll of the white, and came up with this...   I spent maybe a total of six hours working on it. What do you think?   The tape reflects light pretty well, so it is high vis at night, and should gleam in the sun. (click the pics to see larger versions) I am going to use it

5000 Feet Up On A Snowmobile

I have been a ghost here, but decided to stop in and share some life with everyone. Things are rough financially and it is hard to concentrate on Lego, even though I am attending Brickcon this fall.   We went up to the lake last weekend and rode up high to a point named Ascension. Up around 5000 feet, it was gorgeous, and too warm to wear a jacket the whole day out riding. This is bliss and utter peace within.

Comin' Back...somewhat :p

Hey all!   I've decided to put together some new topics to post up in the BBC forum.   first off, is a new chibi topic now that Bionicle is complete. It'll sure be a lot easier to build them all now that no new bionicle sets are coming out. Hero Factory on the other hand... he he he. I can't WAIT to chibi those guys!   The topic will have not only all the sets in chibi, but also with full sets of building instructions to go with them, so everyone who reads can build a chibi for themselves.

Bigger, Stronger, Drive A Faster Car

like the Coldplay song,   "At the touch of a button, I can go anywhere I want to go".....     I will settle for nothing less!   Anyway, I want to get a new car, it may take a year or two, but dangit, I am gonna get one! 2010 Dodge Charger has gotten my attention. We rented one of these cars on our trip to Hawaii, and it is very spacious inside. The car handles nice, but the v6 version is wimpy. Its got no cajones.   Now then, the model I am going for is not the biggest most expensive $46,0

My Entry For The Bbcc

I am diligently working on a one color moc assembled with blue pinaxles and red axles. Keeping other connectors to a minimum, and not using any grey or tan connectors. It will have a wonderful patch of red on it, that will wow the audience hopefully......   And it will have an awesome technique that I pioneered, and have never seen done anywhere.....   I can't wait to see her in her full completed form!   Wish me luck!

Zomg! Zoooommmmgggg!

Brickfest was the biggest, most AWESOMEST thing EVER! Click Here to See My Pictures!   My display was a HUGE hit, not only to the public, but tio all the Adult Lego fans that were attending the convention as well! They had all taken the time to approach me and tell me how awesome my bionicle display was, and that my creations had a very organic feel to them. Something they say they have never seen in a "Pure Bionicle" creation. They were suprised at the complexity of mocs on my table, and were

The Awesomest Exo-force Sets

Ah yes, I have been drooling at the lego shelves every time I go to look for bionicle sales and new merchandise. In my honest opinion, these two sets are some of the best sets available! I want to get striking venom as well, but I don't want to pay $50+ for it.   I present the Golden Guardian   This set is VERY WELL worth the retail price of about $25. The set has wonderful durability, and it has a very nice appeal to how it looks. The huge mechapants are 100% win, and overall it looks very

Carving Skills

Hey everyone, I thought I would share a small tidbit of my work with y'all. After posting that silly looking Nokama, I felt I had to post something really awesome.   Click on the thumbnails to see better pictures.   These are pictures of a violin that I have already finished. These pics were taken during the building process when I glued the top on.   A picture of the Violins body being glued and clamped   Detail of the F-Hole wing. I fluted them, and thats kinda hard to do....   The b

Building And Me

I am going to start working on my PBZP. Its been long neglected, and needs some TLC. I plan on building my first O entry, and finish my B and K entries first, being that I already have one of two for each finished.   I plan on using some great new building techniques and building some really nice mocs. I'm also going to start working on some new creations for NW BrickCon in October.   I'm going to start putting together my Trials of Terror movie trailer soon, and will do voicecasting once my

My First Blog Entry

Hoooeeeeee, I finally ventured into the Blog section. I was a bit lost at first, but quickly found my way around. I plan to talk about daily life up here in alaska. Its been snowing a WHOLE lot lately, and the snow is to my shoulders (I'm 5'8"). It hasn't snowed like this since I was young, and it feels good.   Amidst all the shoveling I do to keep my Quonset huts free of snow and my paths clear, cleaning apartments across the street, or driving to and from Anchorage every other week or two t

Hot Places

I'm going to Hawaii tomorrow!   I have never been there, so it should be a blast!   My family owns a new timeshare on Oahu, and it just opened up! Nice and brand new! I can't wait to go. I really wish I could take Dean with me, poor fella has to go back to work in -50 cold weather.   on a sadder note, My Brother and his GF flew into anchorage because her father passed away in the hospital a couple days ago. I took the day off work today so I could get to town before flying out to see them,

The Essence Of Vomit.....

In the Form of carpet......   Click on the thumbnails to enlarge....     This was the old carpet that was in my bedroom at my house in Seward. Notice the vomity yellowness.......... Well, anyway, I got a bit overzealous and ripped it all out. This revealed varnished pine floors underneath!     I love my wooden floors! Although, I sometimes stumble upon the random carpet staple....... ouchies....   The bathroom is the next to be finished, as it needs new vinyl floors.

Constantly feeling chills running down my spine, pain in the back, excessive coughing.... I hope it doesnt getreally bad. I dont need another fever of 104.

It's Almost Here!

Brickfest tiptoes ever so close, as I bust my hump to finish my displays! Oi oi oi, I know I am cutting it close! I have 3 Reikia to finish. The blue one is almost done, and then I have to brainstorm on the green one, then the white one! The Onu-Reikia is absolutely massive and fearsome! I certainly wouldnt want to run into him on a bad day in Kaiva-Nui!   I have tonight to finish up, as I leave at 1:00 am tomorrow morning (late tonight)   Wish me luck! I am gonna need it!   After brickfest
