About this blog

Words we often so desperately want to say, but leave unspoken, for one reason or another, for fears rational and irrational, whether it makes sense or not.

The Inika Masks were alive, therefore...

(It is the best as decided by me)   The Inika masks were alive, but the story pretty much never acknowledged that.   Of course, being alive, these masks had their own FEELINGS and EMOTIONS and THOUGHTS, right? Of course they did. They're ALIVE!   And of course, they're masks so they can use themselves. Clearly they messed with the Inika and of course they communicated by talking via 'projecting' their own thoughts into the Inika's heads.   So the Inika tended to use their masks involuntarily b

A bunch of G2 assumptions

Skull Spiders are not native to Okoto. Nor are they native to the planet Okoto is on. They are extra-terrestrial, coming from elsewhere. The Mask of Skull Spiders was forged by Makuta after their arrival.   The fire village is constantly on fire. This is a problem. Currently, the fire villagers have to live and scavenge through the volcanic wastes of... the Fire Region This region, the region of fire, is also rich in Obsidian. Obsidian is now a material in G2 as it is IRL. It is used for stuff.

Ninjago

Those Ninjago sets look pretty good but I know next to nothing about the plot of Ninjago.   So here's my guess as to what the plot of Ninjago is, based on nothing but the sets:   2011: Ninjas start being trained by the old beard guy to defeat the evil skeletons, who threaten to destroy the ninjas for some reason. There's also some evil dude named Marmalade or something who commands them who's pretty much the Makuta of Ninjago as I understand it. They succeed and the skeletons get punched out of

Something that confuses me

Why do some people want to go back to Inika builds?   Inika builds had specialised upper torsos and torso armour as well as specialised, one-piece lower limbs. By 2009, we were just merely tolerating them as opposed to going 'oh cool'.   Now tell me: which system had a torso armour that's very hard to repurpose as anything else? Two kinds, maybe more. Which system had only two sizes of upper leg? Which system offers far more opportunity for attaching armours and unique bone structures?   What'

Um

I was looking for pictures of the BIONICLE 2015 summer wave yesterday or so, and I noticed pretty much all pictures of them had been taken down.   I think we've accidentally been discussing leaks from the Nuremberg Toy Fair without realising it. Oops. Discussing leaks is illegal here, right? So, um.. how do we apologise to LEGO?

argh

No, BZP. Pressing enter does not mean I want to submit the post.   Pressing backspace also doesn't mean I want to go back a page. Who seriously thought that was a good idea, making backspace both a shortcut for going back a page as well as removing letters? Argh.

A Suggestion

We should ask LEGO to make the entirety of BONKLE 2016 clown themed. We can already change the name to 'HONKLE', fitting the clown theme. No, wait. THE ENTIRETY OF 2016.   Along with this, we can bring back Hero Factory as 'Clown Factory'.   Then we can extend Legends of Chima as 'Legends of Clowns'.   Ninjago can become 'Clowngo', the masters of Clownjitzu.   Roboriders can come back as 'Roboclowns' too, and Slizers... Slizers will simply become 'Clowns'.   Galidor can come back unchanged. Al

Functions

Ever since I acquired Lord of Skull Spiders, my position on functions has been reversing.   I think they're great and would like to see a wider variety of them. This has also made me realise I've probably been a bit harsh on Skull Scorpio, although we'll have to wait and see how well its function works and how many parts it has. Skull Scorpio has got to be one of the most unique sets at its price point in quite a while, IMO. Although I'd agree about the legs, we'll have to wait and see the price

The Red Star

When they said the Red Star all those times in BIONICLE, they made an error.   They actually meant the Bread Star. Dead beings are made alive again, but in the form of bread. They are then sent back to the MU. But, because they're bread, they're almost immediately eaten by something or another.   In addition, instead of being populated by Kestora, it is populated by Osha-Matoran, Matoran of Safe Working Conditions.   There is also no such BIONICLE Stars combiner known as 'Gaardus'. They meant '

Lord of Skull Spiders

If all the Toa have to claim their golden masks to become the Master of their element, does that mean Lord of Skull Spiders has to claim its golden mask and become the LORD OF SKULL SPIDERS?   I am the Lord of Skull Spiders. I must claim my golden mask and become the LORD OF SKULL SPIDERS!   Now imagine that sentence in the style of those other promotional vids/episode narrator voice.   You know what, I'm going to guess that Makuta forged the Mask of Skull Spiders and the 'masks' the Skull Skel

Sleep

Last week or so I managed to not sleep on no less than three different, but not consecutive nights. Sleep is hard. The effects of this are also still haunting me and maybe laughing at me like the effects of sleep deprivation they are. Sleep is annoying. Why is it so hard when you want sleep but so easy when you don't? Argh. LoSS is also beginning to grow on me a bit, even if he's not that great. He has a nice technic build and I may change the trans orange beams on his legs to hotdogs necks and

CCB(IONICLE)S

People still think there's a possibility LEGO will abandon CCBS to go back to the old BIONICLE parts, because 'CCBS is not BIONICLE, it's Hero Factory' or something like that   I doubt LEGO will ever abandon CCBS considering how much it probably cost to completely overhaul constraction between 2010/2011

Transparent Orange Haus

I HAVE A TRANSPARENT ORANGE HAU. It's so transparent. And orange. Trans-orange. It actually looks pretty decent on Tahu, although the transparency and being able to see the 'head' through the mask is kind of awkward which makes me worried for the gold/transparent blends coming this summer.   Also an extra skull spider so that's cool too.   and also LoSS but he's nothing special. Nice of LEGO to make his acronym 'LOSS' as a warning.

BIONICLE 2015 Questions

Which is your favourite Skull Skeleton? Which transparent colour do you prefer? What do you think of the gold+transparent blends of the masks? Why do you think Tahu and Gali don't have any? Skull Scorpio sucks? Do you think we'll get a Makuta set next year?

If there's one thing I won't miss about G1 BZP

It's all the BZP members seeing the sets before they released and deciding they're THE WORST SETS. EVER. Again and again and again. Then suddenly changing their minds when the sets are actually released.   I joined BZPower in 2007, and I can roughly remember seeing this no less than four times. Was at its strongest during 2008 though, that part is important. Fortunately there has been better reception to G2 sets from what I know of.

February Thoughts

The Hordika Neck is definitely the most useful thing to come out of 2005.   I should get that transparent orange Mask of Fire. There's no other way to get it that I know of. With a bonus skull spider and poster too!   Lord of Skull Spiders could be improved so easily if you simply moved the Glatorian necks in the place of the technic beams and then attached the normal CCBS legs to it, placing the original IFB-claw leg-ends on the end of those legs. Not sure about this, but LOSS' function would

The Skull Skeletons

I really like the skeleton theme and thus they all look great to me.   ...   Skull Scorpion sucks though, Let's laugh at it. Ha ha ha ha. Its legs are less articulated than the Nui-Jaga's legs! Now, for a set using CCBS, I'd say that's quite the achievement. What prevents it from using that CCBS piece with the three ball-joints, with two sticking out, then having legs with Invasion From Below claws on the end attached...?   ...if Ekimu can batle 'Big Skull Guy' as I have began calling him, why d

DO YOU LIKE ASYMMETRY?   I'm curious of BZP's opinions on asymmetrical sets. (Such as Pohatu and the upcoming SkulL Warrior)

NEW NAME SUGGESTION TIME

I'll be able to change my name soon.   Currently we have the following names pre-suggested (both by Portalfig I believe):   1. Plues (misspelled variant of 'Pulse') 2. The Pun-isher (Disclaimer: I have ran out of puns.)   This is the part where you suggest other names. There's no limits, except you absolutely cannot suggest 'KITTENS FOR FISTS' this time.

Lewa's Mask

Why.   Why did they ruin the Miru?   It looks so terrible. Literally no resemblance to any previous incarnation.   I have also been told that my opinion is 'stupid' because I think this. Excuse me, I am allowed to have an opinion on it.

Sentences

Translucent Purple pieces are absolutely beautiful. We need more of them. They're not ugly like translucent orange (seriously, does translucent orange go with anything? It's such a ugly translucent colour.), they're not overused like translucent neon green, and they're not translucent green. They're also not translucent blue which is kinda meh.   Although I do think translucent pieces are starting to lose their novelty, so we'll probably stop seeing them for a while. Not to mention, aren't trans
