Huh, it looks like the Stars really ARE leaking out a decent amount. Someone posted a Tahu review already, and it appears that they have already gotten their hands on all of them. I'll have to look into heading back to TRU soon. I'm reluctant to call ahead because I can see myself being on the line for a long time. It would go somewhat like this:
TRU: Hello, how can I help you today?
Me: Hi, do you have Bionicle Stars Tahu? It's a red one.
*10 minutes after being on hold*
TRU: Uh, we
Huh. I just remembered that its time for a WotW. Well... *looks for suitable win* Ah, here's one. This week's WIN is the LEGO color "sand green." As most of you know, that is the color of the joints on Zaktan. Its kind of an olive green-ish color. Well, the reason why I chose this was because I was looking at the LEGO Ben 10 web site and the set entitled "Swampfire" happens to be a gold-mine of that sand green color. I'm now inspired to go on Bricklink and splurge a bit, purchase a decent amount
LOL, Brickeens made a post on his blog saying that you can use your tongue to complete a circuit. Now, pardon me while I go about my business of licking batteries to make my tongue fizzle...
o_o
I just hit up my local Toys R Us looking for the Stars. No luck whatsoever. I didn't really think I was going to find anything. The only one I really want is Tahu, because of the orange, and both the Haus.
*Geeks out with noobish excitement* Toaraga got his hands on the STARS! Here
Now, I'm actually kind of impressed with these. Not with their Agori design, but with their new pieces. The Nektann head is very interesting, as is the Rahkshi head. Did you notice that there is a new trans neon orange joint?
Let's see... *opens up quote archives* Ah, this one might be interesting to use as a subtitle. It's from Test Track, at EPCOT.
"Did you remember to turn off those robots?"
Opps. I kind off just accidentally sort of made on of the "HERE IT IS DAWG" entries a draft. Now, I want to keep those together, to make it a little more LOLable. I only had one choice- delete it. Whoever can guess which entry I deleted gets a real fake cookie.
Snap, it's Friday the 13th. It's actually a lucky day in most countries, but it's oddly thought as an unlucky day in the US. *sigh* Kids and their horror movies...
So I finished up the lime and yellow dude. LOVE it. I think it's one of THE BEST MOCs by me. EVER. I might save it for a contest and just not post it on here, but post pics of it on Majhost.
It is now-
A little LEGO can go a long way. =D
Which is so true, BTW.
Anyway, I'm aware that KTM said that the Ventorus have disbanded because of the whole "war" thing. Kind of a bummer, but I've gotten over it. It's a website about kid's toys for Pete's sake. There shouldn't be stupid internet WAAAARRS like this going on. It's just... silly. Kind off puts a bad taste in my mouth.
Well, after two days of having this Tower of Terror subtitle, I have decided it's much too long. So now, I'm going to swap it out with a line from a classic Disney World/EPCOT song. It's just about as iconic as "There's a Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow". It's "One Little Spark" from Journey Into imagination!
"One Little Spark... of inspiration"
*belts into song*
Snap, the Zehvor are actually taking this war thing so seriously. One of them even bypassed the filter on MT's blog to say how stupid my poem was. The poem was a joke, LOL. I wonder how you could actually fight a war like this, though. A contest, perhaps? I wouldn't mind organizing one here.
Well, I'll update you on some stuff.
This Wednesday is going to blow you away. I'm going to (probably) FLOOD the BBC Forum with stuff, like
-The yellow elephant (name suggestions?)
-Gunmetal and light blur (ahem, blue) guy
-The Discontinued Color fgdnfkgjnerogwenrgu (k, never mind =P)
-BBCC 56 (yes, I'm entering. The MOC is just about finished.)
Stay tuned.
I have written an epic poem describing the war of the Zehvor vs. the Ventorus. *Ahem*
the ventorus flew from the top of moumt everast an through boms at the zehvor. the zehvor expoded and we stoal all ther piez. the end.
...
=D
Well, days off are a common thing among all WotW, so this week's WIN is Veteran's Day. Another day off, and it's a Wednesday. Thanks to all of the great individuals who protect our freedom.
This quote comes from The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror from Disney Studios or whatever they call it now.
In tonight's episode you are the star, and this elevator travels directly to .... THE TWILIGHT ZONE
I was just thumbing through my Sunday circulars, and I found a SHWEET non-LEGO deal in the TRU ad.
