  1. Star Wars TFA. I wasn't hyped for it, but I walked out of the theater pleasantly surprised.
  2. Honestly, the original bohrok. I still really like them, but they are all literally the same sets with different colors and weapons. Actually, I've never been partial to clone sets, but I'm definitely not alone there.
  3. I don't like it when complexity is valued over looks in a MOC. Not saying that when someone is going for a complex build is bad, but needless complexity just doesn't sit well with me.
  4. On the whole, the 2016 Toa don't look that great to me. Out of these options, though, I'd say Pohatu is the best, and I'd even say he's better than his 2015 set version. I think the colors really work, and the mask is really appealing to me. The added height works, too. Lewa is a...good set, too, but what really kills it for me is the leg design. And Gali, while she was a great set in 2015, does not look nearly as good now. Her armor is too asymmetrical for me, and the blue is not distributed as much as I would like.
  5. From what I've seen, only Onua beats out his 2015 version in this poll. I didn't care for the gold on Tahu's 2015 version, as I felt it was a little tacked-on, but he has much more gold now. Kopaka appears to have a similar color problem.
  6. I used to have a golden Vahi, but my dog destroyed it. Now I have nothing that's "rare".
  7. Other than any of the masks from the Mata Nui saga, I'd go with the first adaptive Miru Nuva. It has that perfect balance of simplicity and complexity. It reminds me of the Miru olda a lot while taking some elements from the standard Miru Nuva. I would have liked to see it in different colors, though.
  8. 3/5 I've seen you around a few times before.
  9. The Master Chief Collection. It takes an unbearably long time to find a single match, especially in BTB. My last match was BRs on Construct and I went 27-0.
  10. I've been working on this big blue sea-emperor guy...thing...for a while now. I'm almost done, but I can't figure out for the life of me how to make the lower legs. Nothing seems to work. I have ideas for other creations, though, so I'm going to try bringing them to reality. That usually works when I have MOC block or Forge block in Halo.
  11. I don't think I've ever made a self MOC, but if I did make one, it would obviously be a toa of sonics. You know what, I think I'm going to finally make ATOS in real life now.
  12. I have mixed feelings for the Kanohi Nuva. I really like the Hau and Akaku Nuva masks, especially because they resemble their olda versions so much more than the rest (even if it's only marginally more). (However, when it comes to the Pakari Nuva, the resemblance is barely even there. My main issue with the masks, though, is how enormous they are. If there's one thing the adaptive Kanohi Nuva did, it was fix the size problem.
  13. The Black Ops 3 beta. While it's obviously not without problems, BO3 is really shaping up to be a solid game. It's a breath of fresh air after AW and the joke known as Ghosts.
  14. I've narrowed my choices down to 2002, 2006, and 2008. 2002, but I would have to go with 2006. Yeah, the first years of Bionicle were just incredible, and 2008 brought about a certain big revelation (plus those vehicles though), but 2006 just reinvigorated Bionicle, from the story to the set designs. The villains were finally something other than swarms/animals/robots/etc., we got some interesting Matoran designs, and we saw some old characters return as the then-current heroes.
  15. The unfinished plot and the Stars as the last six generation 1 sets rank pretty high on my list of problems with Bionicle. Also, at two posts above, I remember a bug in MNOG 2 relating to the bridge leading to Ta-Wahi or something. The game would always crash because of it, and my 6-year-old self would get really annoyed.
  16. I only remembered about BZP's anniversary late last week, but I still enjoyed the perks. Seeing my post count picture is making me think about posting more here, and the blog feature is giving me massive nostalgia. But unlike the last time I used this, which was five years ago, I may actually be able to obtain a premier membership. I don't really post much anymore, but I think I'm re-establishing my ties with this place-my first forum. . Until I possibly get PM, the Lenny Legion is signing off ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°).
  17. After a 6 hour car ride, my family and I finally arrived in Williamsburg, VA. We're staying for a week, and this is the first time I've been here since I was 3 or 4 (I can't remember exactly what age I was). So far we haven't done much, but we will begin tomorrow with Busch Gardens. To anyone who's been there, do you have any recommendations for what to prioritize in the park?
  18. My picture is from Ghost in the Shell: SAC 2nd GIG. It's the second season to Stand Alone Complex, the TV show for one of my favorite anime series of all time.
  19. I can't think of anything pre-server crash, so I'll go with my old comics and sprites. Jeez they were bad.
  20. >be me >come back to bzp >premier week >see my post picture >see my spinny >remember that I joined in 2008 and my last blog post was 5 years ago >my limited-time blog's original name made me cringe I think I'm an oldfoman now. More later, if I feel like posting another entry.
  21. My first set, Maku, came with a happy meal way back in 2001. It's hard to believe that an eight-piece promotional set caused me to become addicted to the Bionicle line for years to come. Not even my love for Halo matches how crazy I was over OG Bionicle. That's not to say G2 isn't great. While some design and piece choices are questionable, G2 seems to be doing a good job so far. But the lack of a nostalgia factor will always make it feel different from G1.
