I got my Brickmaster in today. I must say, I enjoyed the whole enchilada quite nicely.
The magazine itself was nice. There are a few pages dedicated to Bionicle, talking about the Mistika and whatnot. The new Agents comics are neat, and rather entertaining as well. The Batman comic was ok... Also featured is a two page... thingy... on the Star Wars: The Clone Wars LEGO minifigures, coming out later on in the summer apparently. The minifigs looks pretty good, especially the clones. Captain Rex
Hey everyone! I have a hankering to start up a blog contest. I have actually had the idea for this type of contest for a while now, but I didn't have a blog to place it in at that time. But know, I do! So, what is this idea that I've got? Here we go:
BZPower MoCist Duels!!!
So, what exactly would these be? Simply put, they would be a one on one building duel between two of the better MoCists here on BZPower. The contest would work alot like the BBC contests, except that they would be betwe

Yay: new sets for MoCing!
I don't own Malum, and Pridak's white pieces should come in handy with my upcoming MoC project. I'm excited, because it's white and dark red, which Malum and Pridak happen to be... Thanks Steve Witt for the sets!
Thanks again to the staffies for hosting the contest, and congrats to all of the other winners.
Oh, and thanks to all who voted for me; I had no idea I would get this far...
lol, and to think I wasn't being all that serious when I en
I will not be entering, due mainly to the fact that I simply have not had time to build something really good, and no mind-blowing ideas came to me to begin with. Sad, yes, but you can't enter them all. There are some really amazing entries this time around; stuff which I would have no hope of competing with. I sorta built a Han Solo, but there wasn't anything innovative about him really... BBCC's just don't hold the weight with me as they used to (I'm growing up I guess) I am looking forward to
Yar, take that you system lover people!
Wait... I was just starting to use system in earnest! *facepalm* Oh, the irony!
Well... due to the fact that I will be gone right up until a few days before the deadline, I'm unsure if I will be able to enter. (though I will try, oh yes!) I'm gonna have to place a larger-ish order from you-know-where in the next few days... Oh, and there will be no green present!
Regardless of whether I can enter or not, I will be very intrigued to see what s
I'm just about done with the leg design, and I love it. Very sleekish and smooth!
The color scheme is black with lime accents. <3
Sorry, no WIP pic; I want to keep this one to myself until it's all complete.
Also, this will be the first time I will have to go purchase parts separately for a specific MoC
(at least I plan on it)
Also also, moving text back to normal position; likey?

I am guessing that you were hoping to see a completed gun for display in this blog entry when you clicked the link, correct?
Well, I'm sorry to say that though I have completed the MoC I have not been able to take pictures yet. I finished it just this afternoon. However, I gotta say that I've really impressed even myself this time around, and I can't wait to enter!
The gun is a futuristic blaster-type gun. The barrel is at least a foot long, and then add on the handle (probably half a foot
The Bionicle Based Creations Critics Club has recently been updated and edited. Toa Velox and I collaborated on how best to do this, and we have made several major changes:
- Removed critic screening; in other words, anyone can join!
- Added critic ranks. This (basically) is a way to encourage our critics to write better and better reviews. A critic will give a review, link to it in the "Critics" entry, and then the Curators will rate the review according to the quality of it in relation t
^^^ Click Here Please! ^^^
So... what are you waiting for? Go check it out!
We really would love for more people to sign up to be critics,
and if you have a MoC you'd like reviewed, then please enter it onto the list!

Well, I'm home from DC! *waves frantically*
Yep, it was a very tiring week, but totally worth it. Here are some highlights:
- The museums. We visited many of the Smithsonians (yes, it's plural), and while I enjoyed some more than others, they were all very interesting. One thing which was very fun was we went to see Night at the Museum 2 at the IMAX theater at the Museum of Natural History! At first, I wasn't so sure of how the movie would be. However, at the end, I really wanted to see
Oh YES.
I got the Metriod Prime Trilogy a few days ago as sortof an early Christmas present for the break (we start break two weeks before Christmas, so I wanted to have it in enough time to really enjoy it over the break).
I started MP3 today; it's pretty sweet with the new Wii controls! I love it how Retro Studios integrated so many motion sensitive actions into the game. Also, the whole beginning sequence was epic awesome and tense with Ridley (I killed him with like... 3 seconds to spare
Ok guys, here it is!!! B)

Whew! I'm telling you, getting these things entered always takes alot longer than you think...
Anyway, I hope that you enjoy it just as much as I do!

I went to Target this afternoon to pick up Gresh, but believe it or not they were sold out of him. :angry: Oh, and they had like three of every other canister set.
Arg.
BBCC #52 voting anyone? I'm numbah 10.
~GBG~
Hey guys, sorry I haven't updated my blog with the winner of my contest, but the winner is Arpy! I have just been rather busy lately, and have not had the time to do this. I will get the trophy up as soon as I can.
~GBG~
I am writing this blog entry to bring to your attention the fact that anyone can enter my blog contest now, and not just those who have won BBCC's in the past. I hope that this way more people can enter (there needs to be more, there aren't any yet!). So what are you waiting for? Scroll on down to the two blog entries before this one to sign up!

Darth Vader!
I would like to explain a few things first. I realize that it appeared as if the duelists were tied in the last round, but due to and oversight on my part, Roa didn't actually get the last vote, and thus, DV was one vote over Roa!
On that note, I would like to present to DV his trophy ...
There you go! Originally, the trophy was a little shinier and it was all circular, the corners were transparent. Sadly, the process of saving it as a .jpg sortof ruined it. I had
Well hello BZP people out there! I am shocked to see that it has been nearly a month since my last blog entry! I think that it is high time for an update!
Ok, let's see... to start off with, the main reason that I have not been blogging (or doing much else around here) is because a) I have been doing other more important things and B) I hit one of my BZP low spots (I go in spurts of being real active and then not).
I have just finished checking up on all of the news and reading the new se
In light of recent events, I would like to request that no one judge me for an honest mistake. Yes, I broke the rules, but not on purpose. I have learned the lesson, and I am taking my medicine the way I should, so please don't rub it in my face. That doesn't help. I personally still want to participate in future contests and the community here, so please do not let this incident make yourself biased against me. I want to move on and have a great time with you guys (and gals!) I apologize for ca
Just wanted to remind you guys (and gals!) to vote in my blog for the two MoCists that you would like to see compete in the BZPower MoCist Duels contest, held here in my blog. The voting can be found here.
Go ahead and vote if you haven't already! The voting ends monday morning (CST).

Hey all! It has been quite a while since I've posted an entry! Today I present a new MoC that I have recently finally gotten pictures taken of and posted. Here he is, Skotraxx:
Here is a link to the topic: Click!
By the way, can some one remind me how to embed a link in an image?
In my personal life, I am doing very well, and school is going nicely (I'm loving chemistry!). I don't want to take the time to add more, so I think that I will stop there.

For the first time, I'm operating on micro-scale, or medium-scale perhaps. I'm about 75% complete with one part of my entry; I'm thinking of having two units to do battle. Yes, they are not humanoid in any fashion; think small, treads, and blasters. Get the idea? Now, back to work.
I reached 1000 posts today replying in my Certavus topic. .:Toa Velox:., Major Marvelous, and ChocolateFrogs, I responded to your comments in detail if you are interested in taking a look at what I said!
~GBG~
I'm wondering exactly how much of my Certavus entry must be custom. I've seen several other members (the good ones) make heavily customized body parts. I didn't do that because I felt that I wanted Certavus to look set like and yet still be very different from the other Glatorian. Ordinarily I would want a customized body/parts, but for this contest I'm thinking that it would be better to hold off.
Thoughts?
