Ballom Nom Nom Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 (edited) I think Hysleria is easily the best of the semifinalists, and probably my favorite entry in the whole contest, so I definitely hope it wins. Akutahn and Terror Bite are pretty cool too, as is Daitan. The other two entries don't seem particularly impressive, especially compared to the best entries from BZP. That's likely in part because those two sites barely had any entries (at least relative to the overall total). May the best semifinalist win! I'm almost certain the winner will be Hysleria or Akutahn, though. ~B~ Edited December 20, 2014 by Ballom 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toa Smoke Monster Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 I've already stated that Akutahn was a really impressive MOC, but Hysleria is a great MOC too. I also think Makuta Nakken is pretty neat as well. Good luck to everyone that entered the contest! 1 Quote Everyone is one choice away from being the bad guy in another person's story.

Black Six Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 What is Pockyland?It's a LEGO fansite based out of Taiwan with a predominantly Chinese-speaking demographic and a decent-sized constraction building population. 1 Quote Bio of a BZP Admin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wazdakka Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Not to show favoritism towards my people or anything, but I think that Makuta Nakken from Rusbionicle is my favorite, due to the unconventional serpentine build.

UngluedBike Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 I think the winner is either gonna be the guy from ReBrick or Bionifigs. 1 Quote Also, if you're a resident of the UK and like Bionicle, go ahead and join us at this awesome Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/BFUK7/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nidhiki of the Shadows Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 (edited) These are all really epic, ranging from TITANIC, epic builds to smaller but equally as detailed and creative ideas. I like em all, but the Bionifigs winning MoC has such an awesome look to it, I really love the aesthetic. -NotS Edited December 21, 2014 by Nidhiki of the Shadows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sumiki Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 (edited) I could make a legitimate case for any entry to win the whole thing. Congratulations to all the finalists and a preliminary congratulations to the eventual winner.

Gamma-Ray Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 I really like the one from ReBrick... but I might be a little biased there Best of luck to the other finalists! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ektris Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 (edited) Alrighty, guess this is a more suitable place for my thoughts on the finalists. I'll start off by saying all are undeniably superb MOCs in their own rights and deserving of winning. BZPower: I do feel there might have been definitely a bit of the size playing into this one. I'm not about to go check out all 800+ entries myself (more power to the judges for this heh), but even just second place looks phenomenal without being big. That said, it's soooo much better than our last officially sanctioned LEGO contest winner, Miserix, which also probably just won from being big. And that guy is a huge mess (doesn't help that our only picture is of incredibly poor quality and doesn't even show the full model...). Akutahn is definitely a lot better than that. Roa does the giant builds better than anyone, and the defined body and articulation of the final product are great. I love that head too. It just might not be my favorite. ReBrick: This one confuses me solely for the judges' thoughts on it. It's "heroic" according to them. I'm sorry, but I thought this was a villain contest??? And it looks very heroic to me too. The layered armor does look great and I like it as an independent creation. But in the context of the contest, I'm not sure it fits. RusBionicle: This is very unique. That is good. One itching negative in the back of my mind (and not just here, but its reoccurrence in a finalist is nagging me), though, is weren't we told that, while not a rule, to be original and designing things from outside properties or old BIONICLE might not be the best? Because there's an awful lot of Makutas here... (Or maybe it's just using the incredibly iconic Kraahkan of this particular model that has me thinking of that, when it doesn't fit into G2.) Oh well... Regardless, it is suitably evil-looking and I do love that sleek design. Like I said, it's undeniably unique amongst the finalists and still a cool MOC. Bionifigs: I think the judges put this a lot better than I could. I like the shape language too - in the upper body anyways. And it's definitely evil. Fits the criteria of the contest well. Don't really have much else to say there. It looks pretty alright. Pockyland: Speaking of unique... Wow. The oriental influences of the Dark Fang Warlord stand out a ton, but that's totally okay. It looks great. It might be a better Chima villain than a BIONICLE villain, but it looks great nonetheless. This one is a lot simpler than the others, but I don't think that's a detriment at all. Because what it does, it does great. EuroBricks: Okay, Terror Bite may be my favorite. Although also has a bit of a Chima feel thanks to being an animal (as pretty much any anthropomorphized build will now thanks to its existence lol), its huge bulk and very aggressive look does also separate it from that and make it seem perfectly fine in BIONICLE. It looks powerful, it looks villainous, it looks feral, it looks solid. I can't think of anything I don't like. ~|ET|~ Edited December 22, 2014 by Ektris Quote E-T... Phone home.
