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.

Hands

Imagine if we had detachable hands that could float when detached, and the fingers were further detachable. And our nails, instead of having to be cut when they get too long, could be sent flying at high speeds towards things.   You could do so much more if our hands were like this.

Midak Skyblaster, Post-Game Entry

Well, that ended up being a bit more of a mess than I intended. There were sixteen players. They did not need a total of 48 blasts of light. 32 of those would go unused, maybe one or two more. If there is ever a second game, then you shall probably only get one or two blasts of light. Less redundancy - and easier to keep track of. Plus, the zamors get more important. Only about half of all players were targeted with zamor spheres. Most of those at least twice. Kapura's popular with zamor sp

A Few Years Ago

Remember when, a few years ago, that people were trying to get kinetics to become an element?   This was around the same time PSIONICS became an element. Psionics was made an element, but Kinetics was rejected, under the basis that a 5-year old child would not know what kinetics is, I believe? Despite the fact that a child would likely not know what the word 'Psionics' meant either. Honestly, why use a fancy name if your target audience doesn't know what the fancy name means? It was a silly elem

Two questions

I'm curious to see what people think: Is it better to stick with a core group of characters (HF) for the entire duration of a theme, or is it better to constantly introduce new characters almost constantly (G1 BIONICLE)? What do you hope G2 BIONICLE does in terms of characters?

Bota Magna

Vibrant. Wet. Dense. The Jungle Moon of Bota Magna is no place for the faint of heart. Yet its inhabitants defy its many dangers; of gargantuan wildlife amd the labyrinthine jungle floors eternally shadowed by the canopies above; to build some of the most impressive settlements that have ever graced Spherus Magna - or a part of it. Krutiera Magna, the most advanced city to have ever existed, utilising its local resource-rich environment to develop, expand, and advance. Bota Minor, a city of

Pohatu & Ketar

Acquired Pohatu + Ketar.   Let's start with Ketar.   Ketar is... Ketar. A bit awkward constructed, if anything. Especially compared to the other creatures. Its back does not look pretty, which is bad since that's what you see from the sides and from the top. I don't understand why the glatorian necks that hold the arms have the axles of the gear pieces poking out through them. Why not use one of those Ikir uses to prevent the y-joints from having the axle pieces poke through them? It's just two

Small Thing

Every time I go to the BZP front page, it says:   Welcome, You Have 24 Hours. You have 0 new messages.   If it wasn't my name, I'd assume BZP was threatening me.   ---   Anyway, I now have the urge to host a boinilces mafia game subtitled "You Have 24 Hours." Like 'BIONICLE MAFIA: You Have 24 Hours', in which you have 24 hours to perform 'night' and 'day' actions taking a maximum of nine rounds, one extra if nobody has won by round eight and then split into four quarters with two round

10 Reasons Why Pridak Sucks

I'm sure that by now, you've seen Pridak's unprecedented level of adoration by his masses of fans who praise him to no end. However, I'm not so sure that most of you know about the TERRIBLE SECRETS Pridak hides in inconspicuous places, such as in plain sight. Pridak, unlike the other Barraki, doesn't really resembly anything. Mantax looks a bit like a Manta Ray, Ehlek looks like an Eel with limbs, Takadox is a praying mantis for some reason, Kalmah is quite clearly squid-like, and Carapar has a

Uh

I went to the BIONICLE website today. I looked at the text that was scrolling from right to the left. After a while, one of the things the text said was 'PLAY THE NEW MISTIKA RACING GAME'.   'New'?   That was 3 years ago. And that's when I realised: 2008 WAS 3 YEARS AGO, ALMOST 4!   So, just about 3 years ago now we learnt that Mata Nui was actually a giant robot. And that Teridax took over it. And exiled Mata Nui. And a year later, Mata Nui arrived on Bara Magna. And united the Glatorian. And f

Weird Pricing

I just checked LEGO's online shop and I have to say, I was honestly not expecting Umarak to be the same price as Onua and (presumably) Tahu at £14.99 considering he has 172 pieces.   Kopaka and Melum, on the other hand, are £19.99 and have 171 pieces. It's clear who has the better price/part ratio here. Onua has 143 pieces at £14.99. The other sets aren't on the UK LEGO Shop at the moment, but it seems weird the sets have more pieces and yet remained the same price.   I might as well post my gen

Hmm

When I was young I was very paranoid about a lot of things. In some ways I still am.  I used to imagine myself putting on a protective piece of headgear to... prevent people from reading my thoughts... at school. If I didn't I would be so afraid that people could read my thoughts. I don't know why I thought this other than just basic paranoia. Probably should have just tried to relax, which is difficult sometimes and is still now. Similarly, I used to stare into nothingness, and when I

The Moon

Nobody's ever tasted the moon, have they?   Therefore, we can't really say it's not made of cheese until we try and take a bite out of it.

Quake Beast + Umarak the Destroyer

Quake Beast... easily the weakest of the three beasts, and the weakest of the entire summer wave. It looks awkward from the back and the side, only looking good from the front. The function isn't really that good, either - it's just swinging the crystal arm forward without much oomph. If you ask me - they should have used Skull Basher's function here instead of a gearbox. Also, the legs are only just barely supporting the body.   Umarak the Destroyer - the largest single figure G2 is ever going

BZP Mafia Roles

Five Faction Face-Off (Potential Mafia-Sort-Of-Spin-Off Idea)

Got a Mafia sort-of spin-off idea, don't know if it counts as Mafia at this point so that's why I'm not posting it in the general mafia topic.   Here is my general outline:   5x Factions - FIRE, WATER, JUNGLE, EARTH, ICE.   Roles making up a faction:   1x Leader - leads faction and decides who kills. 1x Bodyguard - protects members of their faction. 1x Spy - investigates a previous night's killing to see who killed who 1x Diplomat - their votes count for three when it's time to lynch somebody, w

Akida

Acquired Akida.   I have to wonder: why does a fish need dual gatling guns?   The orange + light blue combo is nice. Not so sure on the transparent light blue and transparent dark blue combo, though. Think Akida could've done with more transparent dark blue parts,   Akida's probably the least function-based of the creatures, the function is hardly a function on Akida alone. It's more there to turn the gatling guns and fins.   Akida's a fish I guess. Eh. Well, at least it isn't a bit of a mess l

Skull Bonkles Adrenaline Modes and a G1 Image

As we have come to the conclusion that the Skulls do not in fact have adrenaline modes, I'll make some up myself:   Skull Warrior's adrenaline mode is riding its bow like a surfboard   Skull Slicer's adrenaline mode is putting a 6-stud length axle between its arms to allow it to soar majestically like a Potoo to enable it to chase after Lewa   Skull Scorpio turns its stinger into two separate wings, becoming a Skull Hornet instead of a scorpion and thus terrifying us all   Skull Basher remains t

The Less-Than-Positive Opinions Regarding G1 BIONICLE

Several questions for you, whoever you are, who happens to have chosen to browse this very blog entry. I'm referring to you, in case you haven't noticed yet. Worst line in G1 BIONICLE? Worst character(s)? Worst year? Worst set? Worst wave of sets? Worst serial? Worst idea? Worst thing-of-your-choosing?

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
