fishers64 Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 All of them look good, but the last and most expensive one is the most tempting (with the green dragon!). Can't wait to see these on shelves. Quote Hero Factory RPG | Bionicle Mafia XXIX: Storyline & Theories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aanchir Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 new blends for dragon wings? and they fade to TRANSPARENT this time, WOAH! O: also the elves changed outfits... after i got used to drawin their old ones? greeeat. Technically some of the old ones blended to transparent also, namely the ones in these three sets, but it wasn't all that noticeable since polypropylene (soft plastic) parts are more opaque in general than typical transparent parts. Compare with the Vahki eyestalks, which were also technically transparent colors, but due to their material ended up just slightly translucent. The transparency in some of these images is definitely more pronounced than it is in some of those older examples, so maybe LEGO has made some slight changes to their materials since then. Note also that the dragon wings in these sets come in two different sizes! Zonya the Fire Dragon uses the same size as older LEGO Castle dragons, but Thorne the Earth Dragon and Merina the Water Dragon use slightly smaller wings. Also, the two new baby dragons' wings and spines are also transparent! I thought that was neat since looking at the original baby dragon (Miku) it'd be easy to think the wings and spine were just painted, but now you can see that they're actually molded in different colors of plastic. I still haven't gotten used to drawing the elves' old outfits! 2 Quote Latest MOC: PAIGE (Prototype Artificial Intelligence, Gynoid Expression) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
