Hapori Tohu Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 While we're posting images from past events, I recently realized I never posted pictures from BrickFair Alabama! Taking place half a year ago in January in freezing Birmingham, this was BrickFair's first expansion out of the Washington DC area. And it did really well! Read on to see all the MOCs that were on display.View the full article Quote News Forums Q&A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bleedingshadows94 Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Nice MoCs. I liked WALL-E, and a few others in there as well, but seriously, guys? No Bionicle? No Hero Factory? What is this black magic sorcery?! Ò______Ó~Tobi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aanchir Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Nice MoCs. I liked WALL-E, and a few others in there as well, but seriously, guys? No Bionicle? No Hero Factory? What is this black magic sorcery?! Ò______Ó~TobiThere was at least one BIONICLE MOC using a lot of Carapar's pieces in the "Other" category. Brickfair Alabama didn't exist before this year, so I guess BZPower didn't have a really strong presence there, and it shows. I wonder how small the BIONICLE sections at other, older conventions would be if not for MOCs submitted by BZPers...

Tomaku Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Yeah without bzp staff at conventions there would not be bionicle tables. Quote http://www.bzpower.com/board/index.php?showtopic=8708 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meiko Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Wow. I never saw pictures from BrickFair Alabama, but it looks like a nice venue. Over the next few years, I see room for large expansion in the venue, which could bring us many more tables and sections. I might be able to get some Ninjago Wiki staff down there next year to cover it as well, but if that happens, chances are that it'll be me going for the site, because I'll be the closest one to Alabama. :PAnyways, thanks for the coverage. It really helped me get a better idea of what BrickFair Alabama was like. I can't wait for BrickFair Virginia now.

Toa Smoke Monster Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 I'm always amazed when I look at building MOCs. They are very impressive, IMO, and these here do not disappoint. The other MOCs are pretty cool too. Quote Everyone is one choice away from being the bad guy in another person's story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xccj Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Wow, that's quite a display for it's first year... although having BrickFair people behind it probably helps. Needed more Bionicle too. Thanks for the picts, Andrew!

Black Six Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Wait.. why didn't I see black six then?Didn't he say he would be there?I was there the whole time with Watashi Wa and Emzee. Often I was wearing a BZPower t-shirt that had my name on the back. I'm sorry if you didn't see me. Quote Bio of a BZP Admin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emzee Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Oh right, this did happen.Nice pictures, Andrew. I'll admit that I was a bit surprised at the turnout and the quality of MOCs this year. No Bionicle section like in VA, but what was there very much made up for it. The giant chessboard was one of me favorites, along with the mosaic, which had a puzzle element to it that I couldn't solve at all.
