  1. Nothing "exists". Reality is an illusion conjured by the mind.
  2. did GOAT get a meaning that is completely opposite of what it usually means at some point?
  3. In the addition, there have been several answers that say that some story elements are included in G1 because the sets release required it. The Rahkshi of Heat Vision in 2010, for example. The two statements are not contradictory. "Do the Rahaga have helicopter blades?" "What powers do these Rahkshi have?" These are detail things that usually come after the set. But, "What is the setting?" "Who are the heroes?" "What are the villains?" "What is the quest/conflict?", these general ideas have to come before the sets. It's not as solid as "we make the story first, then sets to fit the story." There's a lot of back-and-forth, and both are probably continually changing throughout the process. What Greg meant by "sets come first" in that quote is, if something in the story contradicts a set, the set prevails. It's a different meaning of "comes first".
  4. I'm pretty sure that's concept art for the Skull Villain combiner. Hence, uh, why it looks like a combination of those concept skull villains. http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-zHthwCUT0jw/VZyqnBxj8-I/AAAAAAAAJUQ/ifNzajBFtQ0/s1600/150707b-lego-bionicle-2015-combinerA.jpg http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-d5RtpFoQkeE/VZyqhBsuHSI/AAAAAAAAJUI/EnUcsM0LBTA/s1600/150707c-lego-bionicle-2015-combinerB.jpg Hmm...https://instagram.com/p/9etzgBwFsY/ I'm not sure I follow. There are several different stages of development and concept art that designs go through. "Kulta Kal" and the component Skulls probably came from a different stage of concepts than the other concepts. It's even got designs rather close to the final designs of Skull Basher and Skull Scorpio. Look, "Kulta Kal" even has three heads, a feature advertised in the Skull Villain combiner that it ultimately didn't have. I can't explain the name. Maybe Kulta wasn't properly assigned at the time and they were just sticking it to things, maybe it was meant to be a form of Skull Grinder, I don't know. But that's pretty obviously just an early concept for the second Skull Villain combiner.

  6. I mean, this seems fairly par for the course for toy companies. You gotta make an attractive toy. That said, personality does come into appearance of a toy sometimes. I'm sure there are others who could give better examples, but the 2015 Toa's designs all seem to definitely have been designed with that character in mind.
  7. So! They recently described a specimen of a new large dromaeosaurid from a formation I unfortunately cannot name on BZPower. It was a contemporary of Tyrannosaurus rex, and it notably preserves quill knobs on the arm bone, giving us direct evidence of feathers. As a very close relative of Utahraptor, and of comparable size, it's safe to conclusively say anyone claiming Utahraptor was too big to be feathered is a moron. Anyway, since I occasionally dream of being a palaeoartist, here's my reconstruction of it, based on the skeletal in the paper and with colors/patterns based on the Northern Potoo. (Highly simplified, obviously.)
  8. Huh. I was thinking it was supposed to be some kind of talisman. An ammo clip makes way more sense.
  9. OOC: okay so i have a couple Heroes I might submit profiles for but first I have a question: is romance a thing in this HF universe? I know it was canon in the canon universe, and I think some allusions have been made in this RPG, but I just want to make sure.
  10. You know the deal. This scientist thought he knew what he was doing when he tinkered with genetics. He thought wrong. Everyone knows genetics is a twisted unsolvable puzzle that man was never meant to touch, and now for his hubris, he's been turned into a fly monster for the rest of his life. I don't know. I'm tired and had to take pictures of this with my phone. What do you want from me?
  11. IC: T. Pecs - Battle of Wounded Knee (horf horf horf) T. Pecs hesitated, but nodded slowly. He stood up shakily, sparks flying from his left shoulder, and looked Thumper in the eyes. "I'll remember this, Hero," he growled. But then, his tone softened slightly. "All of it." With that, he began limping away. "This isn't the last you've seen of T. Pecs."
  12. IC: T. Pecs - Ain't That a Kick in the Head T. Pecs wheezed as the Hero slammed onto him, slamming the point where his prosthetics had been damaged into the ground with a crack as he was forced to the ground again. "My arms..." he rasped. "P-please don't break them."
  13. IC: T. Pecs - Dirty Dancing "What the--" The force he was exerting suddenly launched him forward, flipping over the luchadore and landing on his side. Momentarily stunned, he scrambles to try and get back on his feet, shaking his head to clear it.
  14. IC: T. Pecs - Catch These Hands T. Pecs meets her hands, pushing back on the Hero as he braces his feet, though his left leg has some noticeable give to it now. His eyes burn with rage, and a determination to redeem his career.
  15. IC: T. Pecs - The Match Time Forgot (I Think I Used That One Already But It's Two AM Give Me A Break) T. Pecs roars in agony as his leg crumples beneath him on impact, already having taken bullets and a chair. He moves to swat Thumper away with one arm as he fights to stand up again, his leg damaged, but still usable. Still, through his pain, he grits his teeth in a slightly-unhinged grin. "Well, now it's a fair fight."
  16. IC: T. Pecs - Ah Ah Ah! You Didn't Say The Magic Word! T. Pecs spits out a metallic tooth with a grin. "Amateur? Rookie, that's a move 65 million years in the making." He turns to face her, beckoning with one massive hand.
  17. IC: T. Pecs - When Wrestlers Ruled the Earth Grabbing the luchadore in his jaws, T. Pecs hurled Thumper bodily into the audience. Then, he heel-turned dramatically, planting his feet wide. A poster blew by in a light breeze. His poster. "T. PECS VS. LA PUNO DE HIERRO: REMATCH OF THE CENTURY" He let out a triumphant roar as the crowd went wild. OOC: this is what the refrance (also this is by no means the end of the combat so hold onto your trousers)
  18. IC: T. Pecs - This Reference Ain't Lost Yet With a pained snarl, T. Pecs stood up, trying to jostle the Hero into the reach of his jaws.
  19. IC: T. Pecs - This Is Just Like The Climax Of Jurassic Park With a growl, T. Pecs rears up, trying to grab at the Hero with his jaws before she can climb up.
  20. IC: T. Pecs - Dino Time 3D The chair snapped in half against his flank, and he roared again, sweeping his tail at the Hero. "You callin' me a coward, small fry?"
  21. IC: T. Pecs - Radical Rex T. Pecs bellows as her fist connects where he was shot before, and he scrambles away quickly, aiming a kick at her as he goes.
  22. IC: T. Pecs - Help I'm Running Out Of Funny Location Tags T. Pecs growled in pain as he fell to his rear from the knee's impact, eyes blazing with rage. He pushed up to his feet with one arm, swinging the other quickly in front of him to guard against incoming attacks.
  23. IC: T. Pecs - The Beast from 20,000 Matches Taking advantage of the few seconds he'd bought, T. Pecs jumped into the air to execute a leg drop on the Hero.
  24. IC: T. Pecs - Fight of Spring The theropod roared in pain as the punches connected, but he took the momentum to sweep a giant arm and knock Thumper's legs from under her.
  25. IC: T. Pecs - Thumper and the T. Pecs T. Pecs jerked his head to the side, unable to snark properly with a Hero clinging to his jaws.
