Still slow going in the OGD this week, with Greg just returned to us.

• Takanuva will be cured of his shadow affliction in his blog. DWELLERS IN DARKNESS
• Darkness has remained with the Shadowed One throughout his correspondence with the Order of Mata Nui and his leaving Xia.

Not a joke! Not an illusion! The July issue of Brickmaster arrived in my mailbox today!
I finally got my hands on Comic 13, my favorite issue for its magnificent artwork. But that wasn't so simple to accomplish. Back when it was actually July, I waited, as I often do, weeks with no sign of the magazine heading my way. It was late August when I finally realized I needed to poke Lego Customer Service to send me my belated issue. So they sent me a standard Magaz

Despite absolutely dreary weather, a ray of sunshine comes my way. So yeah, I'm a happy man today . I stopped by the Borders conveniently located at a bus stop on the way home from school, and to my joy, they had The Final Battle stocked aplenty. For anyone who wants to pick up the book sooner rather than later -- GO TO BORDERS. THEY HAVE IT.
I read what I could on the bus/train ride on the way home. As I type, I haven't made it even close to the ending yet,

Some days, you just never seem to get a break. I took a day from school yesterday just to catch up on all of my work. Even though I worked all throughout the day, I was up until three in the morning. Even so, I still didn't find time to study properly for a chemistry test. If this is high school, I don't want to know what my workload will be in college. I fear for my life.
So on days like these, sometimes it's just best to take a break from serious things in lif

It's a dual-function ability for his shield.
Every vote counts! Some polls, like mine, have lowish activity, so vote, man, vote! Thank you to everyone who has voted in the poll so far .
So yeah, if you like my idea, I encourage you to cast a vote for #5. Thanks!

So much to talk about today. First off, have a Ki Nui spinny avatar.

But more importantly...
Oh God, it's here. It's HERE. Heroes Season 3 premeirs tonight! Eight o'clock man! Heroes: Villains, looks a little... neh, but it'll inevitably win me over. I'm also catching up on the Terminator show as well as House. We got some good TV.
I'm also glad Matoran of Sonics were named in the serial

Lend me your approval!
Thank you to Varaka for inspiring me to start a content block for blog approvals. Now I need it to grow. So yeah, if you're happy with this blog, I encourage you to drop your approval image in the comments. Or you can clap your hands, but that's not as fun.
Thank youuuuu.

Here we go -- Farshtey Feed #2. I'd like to congratulate my brother on turning fourteen today. Wish him happy birthday!

• The Axalara T9 was not intended for any specific Toa.
• It will take hundreds of thousands of years for the Ignika to run out of power.
• All of the vehicles could get supercharged under the right circumstances. • Even if one of the Mistika Makuta got new protosteel armor, he (or she) still would have limited access to his power

Ike ruined the carpeting in my basement. We had been together for a long time, now it's time to say our good-byes. Rugs typically don't talk, so we were short.
I have a killer sore throat today, so school didn't seem appealing. I didn't go, just ate soup and crackers. In my house. Alone. I think I have strep throat. I certainly have something throat.
Looks like I'm giving you Farshtey Feed 2 tomorrow.

Here's the thing: this MOC was too cool to die in BBC.
So I'll cheat and post it in my blog instead, where I can see it getting more comments than in the MOC forum. BBC was pathetic. People come in saying things like "I don't see any flaws except..." as if that's all you look for when you judge art. So constructive criticism -- or even just supportive comments -- on parts like the legs (I suggest taking a look at how they are jointed to the body), wing design,

So, this is my plan for the KanohiJournal contest.
Trying not to sound too pretentious, I consider this version of Nuparu's aqua blaster blade to be the solution to a problem.
Nuparu’s aqua blaster blade is mentioned and seen in action in the books, and, if you want to be particular, is therefore considered part of the canon storyline. Here’s the thing. The weapon is only mentioned in the books because the prototype Nuparu set that G

Hello there, readers! This is the first entry of the Farshtey Feed, my OGD Weekly Digest. Come here every Friday to get condensed notes from the OGD. Notice the new bar in the Links box. We'll see how this goes!

As also displayed in one of the content blocks on the right side of this blog, here is a list I have compiled of photo galleries of LEGO BIONICLE Building Challenge winning-MOCs over the past few years. If you see one of your creations listed here and want your BZPower username listed alongside the link, feel free to let me know. If there are any errors with credit given for something you created, let me know that as well.

Incredibly, I received my Brickmaster September-October today, on the tenth of the month. I'm a happy man, since typically I get my issue on like the 25th... of the next month. On that subject, I complained to Lego about not getting a July issue, and I am still waiting on that issue to arrive in my mailbox, in September. Is that right? Anyway, here's some photos, including some of the exclusive Klakk set.
The Klakk is a simple set.

No one has rated this blog for almost two years now.
But it takes only one to tip the scale from 4.0 to five stars... It would be nice to have that, having cared to post some pretty good entries in my time. On that subject, I'm posting the first OGD Weekly Digest entry tomorrow.

I was quite impressed today at school. My friends knew what I was talking about when I said, "So, you hear what they did in Switzerland?" I got into this fanboy discussion with one guy about Nikola Tesla and how the FBI stole away the blueprints for his particle beam, like the real-life plans for the Death Star. Another friend told me that his uber-geeky physics teacher compared the likelyhood of the machine creating a black hole that would swallow up the earth to

Oh, and I have a question for anyone who can help me: does anyone know where I could easily host an mp3 file to link to in an entry? I don't think Brickshelf and Maj allow that.

Just to warn you, this is sort of a storyline rant. Don't take it the wrong way -- I like the story, always have, but sometimes things just need to be said, you know. This time around, it's about Hewkii's mask power.
I'm reading through Prisoners of the Pit again, and Hewkii is using his mask of Gravity to make a 200-foot venom eel slam into the sea floor and a Takea shark float helplessly away to the surface. And I'm thinking this is just one of the most miserable
