Hapori Tohu Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 We had a lot of fun doing our last live stream talking about the 2015 Bionicle sets and hope you did too! LEGO has sent us the rest of the sets, and we thought you guys might like to see them. We'll be hosting another livestream on Google+ and this Friday, November 14th at 9:30 PM Eastern! Come join the BZPower staff and special guest VBBN to check out the other Toa, the Protectors, and the Lord of Skull Spiders! Hope to see you there!

Lyichir Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 I suppose I'll be in the comments of this one just like last time, providing trivia, factoids, and attempts at witty humor! Question... is the YouTube stream the only one with comments? I tried watching from Google+ first last time but couldn't figure out heads or tails of it.

believe victims Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 I only came in near the end of the last one (and my only notable comment was about the boxes being more overall environmentally-friendly than the pouches) but i look forward to seeing if i can make it to this one.

I worry that would just encourage them to try touching the MOCs just to try dodging the rain of studs. Might work to deter the folks who insist my MOCs are sets, though. 2 Quote Formerly Lyichir: Rachira of Influence Aanchir's and Meiko's brother Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishers64 Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 I caught the tail end of that last one and it was good, so I'll try not to miss this next one. That is, if I'm not distracted by Bionifight. (Yes, BZPower can distract me from BZPower. That's just messed up.) 3 Quote Hero Factory RPG | Bionicle Mafia XXIX: Storyline & Theories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayliffe Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Hmm, I may be able to catch part of it here in good 'ol Blighty (It starts at 2:30pm here, BTW), but I probably won't be able to watch the whole thing. I'll check out the whole thing on Saturday though. Quote "In the beginning the Universe was created.

What if there was an arrangement under the turret with six studs? So, after the launcher burns through its first round of ammo, it just dips down and the studs get stuck in the spaces? And it keeps going like that: fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, dip, lift, fire x6 again, dip, lift, fire x6... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aanchir Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 What if there was an arrangement under the turret with six studs?

And it keeps going like that: fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, dip, lift, fire x6 again, dip, lift, fire x6...I suggested the same thing to my brother the other day. Only major issue being that you'd still have to replace that "arrangement" each time the blaster reloads. You could have the extra ammo on a conveyor of some kind, but then it might be difficult to keep them lined up (keep in mind that the ammo will have more clutch power with a stud underneath than with a blaster on top). 1 Quote Latest MOC: PAIGE (Prototype Artificial Intelligence, Gynoid Expression) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have any of the new launchers, so i couldn't test, but.perhaps perch the fresh studs on six barraki eyes? i doubt they get clutch on those. :0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Volitak_Boxor Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Watching now, and this is the only place I can comment. Can you use the LoSS's function to grab and wrap around a Toa's whole body, like a little Skull Spider can wrap around the head? How does that fit?

fishers64 Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 I just keep catching the tail end of these. Was a little surprised to see Aanchir, but also, not very surprised to see Aanchir. Nice work - I definitely know what these sets look like now. 2 Quote Hero Factory RPG | Bionicle Mafia XXIX: Storyline & Theories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
