Why Wait Act Now

I think I've figured iut the secret to psoting blogs on here, it's all about the timing. Posting at 1 in the morning isnt the best time to attrack readers.   Which is why I'm posting at about 11. Gradual steps people.   And thanks to ~Makaru~ for pointing out my inability to remeber Tahu giving the mask back to Vakama. So it aint hanging in the middle of an enemy stronghold. Wonder how Metru-Nui is doing....   Wonder if Bionicle has robot chickens.....thats a good show.   night all

Why The Inika Have To Transform

Warning, the following blog may contain spoilers, random theories, and science.   OK, many people have been wondering if the Inika will transform in some way, and I say they have to. We know from Scholastic that the next place they go may be underwater (Power Play seems to suggest the part of Voya Nui that sunk into the sea), and what do the inika all have in common? lightning. What happens when you mix an underwater world with lightning? bad things. If everytime the Inika try to use their elem

What The Deuce?

I recently got a private email from someone saying something about fighting the BZP. So does bzp have spam?   But also is this a good thing, the bigger something becomes the more likely something like this will happen. It's an enevitable part of bzpower growing in popularity. And it's good to see that the staff was on a the ball and got them.   I dont want to see anymore, and I dont want it to cause any trouble for the wonderfull people that run this great site. But if this is a price I pay to

We're In The Jail House Now

Well I've got some time between classes (ok actually in classes) so I thought I'd post. THats the only thing school internet is good for since I cant get on any offical Bionicle site (INCLUDEING THE GAME!!!) and quite a few others for no real reason.     Dont know if I ever talked about this before but I have a new philosophy on life and I approriately call it the "hordika montra". In our super evolved electronic society we often forget we once lived in trees and had to hunt for our food. We ne

The Review Of The Demo Of The Game Of The Toyline

Well I just beat the demo for Bionicle Heroes and I must say I am intrigued. If you want the easiest explination for the game: It's Lego Star Wars, cept with guns. That last line suprised me the most, for a toyline that once had such a strong antigun standing.   Basically the toa each have a unique gun, and by a unique I mean strickingly similar to real world guns. Jaller has a machine gun, Hahli has a flame (sorry water) thrower, Hewkii has a rocket launcher, Matoro has a sniper rifl

The Podcast Is A Go...so Far

I finally chose the people that would be part of my podcast team today.   I opened up the poll where people can vote on what to name the podcast   I think I have 50 PMs in my mail box   I may haven broken BZP in the process   I haven't been this excited about...anything in a long time.   Here's hoping you'll be listening when its all said and done.

The Final Battle Is Finally Read

So I'll try to keep out any spoilers and just tell you that Bionicle Legends 11 is an amazing book. Maybe just for the ending though. It's got some great battles but they don't seem to quite come across in print, even becoming slightly hard to follow at some points. Though the character interaction more than makes up for it between both the heroes and the villians. There's a bit of flying macguffin that seems to show up just to clean up the plot, though I'm not sure how you would have done it ot

The Biggest Thing Keeping Bionicle From Being Great

You know what holds Bionicle back the most?   The sets.   I say that after catching up on bioniclestory.com. Those stories are amazing (though the biocast has all the production values of a elementary school play) and while I know most of my glee from it is pure fandom (Toa Hagah? Yes please) I know that's also because the story is free to just be a story. There is no need to try and explain a whole set of new characters every six months, they can just have new characters when they want to.

The 2008 Sets

Yah.....   and thats all I'm going to say about that (at least until we are allowed to)   EDIT: Now with twice the judgement   Im just going to go ahead and use spoiler tags for all of this, in case no one even wants to have the new sets vividly described to them   First of all, lets just look at the sets » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «I like these sets. Well all except maybe Kopaka, probably because the only weapon I see on him is one of those guns. I really dont like

Straight To The Moon Alis

I'm going to be talking about Legends #9 so you know the drill   » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Well the description for #9 is "A new world awaits -- a city in the sky -- and the legend continues . . ." Now if they hadn't just had a city underwater then I would be fine with this, but at this rate they are starting to run the gambit of stereotypic fantasy locations. Now I know this is a very limited description. I hope that by "in the sky" it means that it's an island that i

Should I?

should I do it?   should I take the plunge?   Should I follow my dream?   Should I risk it all blowing up in my face?   Should I face the fear of failure?   Should I go out in a blaze of glory?   Why Shouldn't I?

See This Is How They Are Suppose To Be

this is how the Transformers should look in the movie:   Jazz     This is much better, and you can even tell it's Jazz if you remeber his good old G1 version. f they can get this one and Prime relatively right why cant they get the otheres any where close?   (Sorry image was streching screen, I have a widescreen monitor so I didnt notice)

Secrets Of The Swamp Revealed

I recently got Legends 10: Swamp of Secrets and I will say it's a good book. Not exactly my favorite of the books but worth the read   I wouldn't say its a spoiler to reveal there is basically two stories going on in this book. It's interesting how it flows between the two stories but the final result feels like a book that's half as long as it should be and we only get a few fights and some secrets revealed. I believe both stories had the ability to carry two books, and had thy not been cramme

Review Of Titanic Proportions

no, this is not about a boat, or movies about ancient Greeks, it's about this years Titans sets. The main three anyway.   Titans have always had a special place in my heart. To me they seemed to be amde just for the fans. While the cans and smaller sets were designed to atrack the casual buyer, the titans were designed for the peolpe that were already fans of the toy line. But enough of that, on to the review   First we will start with Axxon. Your going to hear this alot with these titans but

Random Theory

I'm starting to like this blog thing, I can post the random theories I have on here instead of posting them on the forum. I came up with my new theory while reading the offical geography topic. I started thinking about how any of the other underground domes besides Metru Nui got light. If there wasn't an island above them then any kind of opening in the dome would be pearing up into the bottum of the Mata Nui ocean. Next I started thinking about that protective clear barrier that is said to cove

Random Happy Fun Time Philosophy

You know what? Today is a good day. Do you know why today is a good day? Because I believe it is. And I believe today is a good day for you too. That's all it takes, beleive that it is good and it will be.   "Look for the light and you will find it in yourself, don't look and only find darkness"

Random 2009 Ramblings

so now that I've started seeing Agori popping up on shelves I guess 2009 has begun for Bionicle anyway.   2008 was a great year, one of the best. Lets see if 2009 can beat it. I like the idea that we are going back to the "super advanced robots living as villagers in simple society" thing like in 2001. There's something about that contrast I always loved.   I've seen all the new sets (even some I shouldn't have) and I like them all quite alot. That being said I probably won't be buying any th

Project Update

Aright now that the forums are back online (which I think was just some sort of ploy so the collective energies of the site could be focused into shipping little blue bricks) I thought I would share how my project currently know as "The crazy idea for a fan made Powercast that will most likely fail" is going so far:   Actually the down time for the forums have been a bit of a blessing for me cause the time I usually use sneaking my way around the forums could be put to better use.

Pre-order Sale

It looks like ToyWiz has the Mistika on pre-order   Now usually I would never suggest ordering from Toywiz as they have a tenancy to raise the price.   Interestingly enough they have all the Mistika available for $11.99, same price as the Phantoka, which is a dollar less then the price being shown at Toy Fair. So does this mean there may not be a price raise, did ToyWiz just not get the memo?   But of your one of those that have to get the new sets as soon as possible, you may want to check

Please Stand By

Well, I haven't posted in a while but I have reason, my grandfather had a heart attack and is still in the hospital so I have been a little busy with that. But in what free time I have had I thought some interesting thoughts which I will post later. So expect to see big blogs about whether or not magic exists in Bionicle universe, the philosophical questions senscient biomechanical beings cause, and an idea I had about what it was like in the dark times. Plus the usual horrible jokes and bad Rod

One Of The Many Things I Said I'd Do

Man it's hot   How hot is it?? It's soo hot that Tahu set himself on fire just to cool off. It's soo hot that Mt Ihu has turned into a giant bath tub. It's soo hot I come up with dumb jokes as to how hot it is. Wonder if Mertru Nui has to worry about global warming?   Ok today we will talk about the before time that was before time that was before time. We have heard from matoran legend that before the coming of Mata Nui that they lived in darkness knowing only their work, if the borke they we

Ominus Laughter Is Never A Good Sign

Well howdy!!   Well the free the band websites are up, and so are the games. But ones really glitchy and the other is almost impossible to play. But the prizes look cool, and the free music aint half bad either.   I'm feelin a little lacking in the Bionicle depart as of right now, got all the sets, read the latest books and comics, so now I'm forced to wait for the next stuff. I'm hopping the new FTB website will tide me over for a while. When's the Voya Nui online game coming out? If Im going

Omg! Thok"s A Tao!1!1!

This blog contains spoilers contains spoilers. If you dont wanna know about the future then stop reading.     Ok, so the big buzz round here seems to be all about Greg's little quote about a Toa of ice resurecting a large amount of ol sea bones to launch an attack on Pridak and his fishy army. Now at first when I heard the screaming ideas of "TOA THOK!!!" and "THOK'S A MASK!!" i laughed it off, but then I actually thought about it. There's one thing for sure, whoever that ice toa is he doesnt s
