Have you ever gone to work, set up a laptop, sat for a few minutes to wake up, then get to work on building a sculpture in LEGO? There -is- a drawback... sifted through an old construction toy collection for cleaning... and there was 50% Mega Bloks. o_o bbl dyingofcancer.
Okay, it's not a giant list of albums as impressive as Dav's (Kyn Ace) or Makaru's (Makaru), but it's my favorites.
These are listed from my personal experience and is open for debate. As usual, all Top 10 lists are open to debate, except for mine 8D (sarcasm, of course). I might make this a feature for the rest of the week, and bring it over to BS01 in my blog there, it depends on feedback.
#10: Pink Floyd's Animals
#9: Metallica's Black Album (Metallica)
#8: The Rocky Horror Picture Sh
Did I forget to mention we have grand prizes, too? These six go to ONE lucky winner. And this is only one of the two grand prizes. I didn't even photograph the second one yet. Details coming soon. Oh also, we moved MakutaFest to Aug. 5th. Same time so far. ALL PRIZES ARE COURTESY OF CITY BLOCKS, TACOMA'S LEGO ART CENTER.
For no reason whatsoever, the Staff Survivor game got overrun by BS01 staff? That'd be hilarious. Also I just got done with a huge week of work, gluing a commissioned mosaic designed from scratch. I'm tired, but I still have one more day to work on the week alone, and I have to prep for a birthday party with a Technic theme. Yes, there's some Bionicle in the pack, but not much. We also have almost every Star Wars technic droid set going towards it, too. I've gotta finish repairing the Droi
Just in time, too. My current phone isn't doing so well. Also yes, I'm building a replica hoop skirt out of LEGO. Good on ya, Xaeraz. (... Yes it's a Death Star.)
Officially, I don't want it on BS01. So cut it out, guys
And I will admit to you all now, I'm looking into getting it... elsewhere <<
Just give me time, I'll have details later. Til then, chill out on it.
No seriously, I honestly have no idea where BMan got the name. So what is it? Anyway, some things to note, since I feel it's noteworthy: BS01's prank was written last-minute on March 31st by a team consisting of Zo'Tomana, Cholie and myself. Kayru and BMan offered input later. The prank concept was about a week old. It was literally started up in a conversation between like 5 staff members. We waited until the last minute to post it. I actually did my part this time around (though it seems
Since it worked so well last time, I decided to do it this time.
Again, THIS LIST IS OPEN FOR DEBATE. Please do complain that I didn't add rappers. I dare ya Also again, this is based on my experience, not on any "facts." Also, these are all Rock only, if I start using more out of that genre, the list is harder, and the Honorable Mentions is longer.
#10: Nirvana
#9: Guns N' Roses
#8: Sublime
#7: Foo Fighters
#6: Beatles
#5: Beach Boys
#4: Metallica
#3: A Perfect Circle
#2: Tool

So, it's taken me some time to realize it, but HS01's practically a ghost town. So I have an idea that just might work. ... Allowing Fan-created HF related content on HS01 under a new prefix (probably Fanon: or something) What do you guys think? And please don't just post something silly like "What's HS01" and "Who cares?" because that HARDLY helps me at this point. In fact, anybody who does will have their post removed by me. I have given my warning. (Now watch the entire blog staff b
Alright, I've been thinking...When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade! Make life take the lemons back! GET MAD! I DON'T WANT YOUR STUPID LEMONS! WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO WITH THESE?!? DEMAND TO SEE LIFE'S MANAGER! MAKE LIFE RUE THE DAY IT THOUGHT IT COULD GIVE SWERT JOHNSON LEMONS! DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM?!? I'M THE MAN WHO'S GOING TO BURN YOUR HOUSE DOWN! WITH THE LEMONS! I'M GOING TO GET MY ENGINEERS TO INVENT A COMBUSTIBLE LEMON THAT BURNS YOUR HOUSE DOWN!
And yes, I'm bored I should
It is done. 1) Yes, I know I'm missing misprints and other rarities. Most notably missing is the European Copper Huna and more premium items (24k Gold Hau for example). 2) Also of note, I have some 02-03 masks in this list, including the gold Avohkii, Nuparu's orange Pakari, the gold Vahi, the MEK and Kraahkan, but they're in my collection so I count them. 3) I don't currently have plans to go get Kanohi Nuva, Krana or Kraata; I might consider the Kanoka, but those are super hard to g
So, in 2006, I was very poor. This is to expected, I was still in high school. I couldn't afford to buy the good sets like (at the time) the popular Batman line sets. What did I miss out on, one might wonder. Well, the biggie I have is Nightwing the figure. He was only available in the Arkham Asylum set, #7785. He is probably one of the rarest figures I have ever laid eyes on in that particular series. I'd put him rarer than some of the others, especially since he was not re-released in the Batm
So, this is more or less an open letter to my friends and people who I talk to all the time: I like Microsoft products. Don't leave the blog just yet. I'll explain myself. While growing up, I had many devices in my life. The company did not matter, because they had their plus and minuses across the board. I had VCRs I can't remember the company name of, I have had a few DVD players of similar status, TVs of non-namebrand companies, computers of only the Swert brand (I helped build the family
I must stop blagging soon enough, but I must ask the question before the day is out.
What happened to Concept Albums? Seriously, it seemed like every single mainstream band put out one of these puppies every 4-5 years, and now it's rarer than a decent Generation One Pokémon card.
Let's be honest, would you rather listen to 12 songs with barely any connection to each other, or 12 songs which tell a story of either love, hate, anger, passion, peace, war, anything? I mean, come on artists of
We add things to models. We actually glued this into a model, and it'll be there forever. The uber geeks will know what it is. And yes, it is 1:4:9 studs.
This image currently represents a specific system I came up with. For one, gives me an excuse to show off my Lantern Corps symbols. Second, it is tracking the rings I have purchased via many sources. Basically speaking, DC Comics' Collectibles division (formerly known as DC Direct) released nine rings and lantern "power batteries" as collectibles in 2011. I'm now collecting each one, or will attempt to. My image above tracks what I now own (or will own very shortly, due to purchases). So far
I -really- want to get a game going eventually, and I've never felt comfortable playing random games online with people I don't know. So, I'm inviting the users with Gold XBL membership on the 360 to play. I know there's at least 5 of us around here. Any takers?
So, I get to Bellevue around 11:20 AM today. I visited the Bellevue Square mall and went to the best store in the building... THE MICROSOFT STORE! ... And then the LEGO Store. 20 minutes later, Dorek arrived. We didn't stick around in there for long. We bought the boss' stuff, like 2 Helm's Deeps, a Monster Fighter Haunted House, a small Friends set for parts, and so forth. I picked out the Vampyre Hearse set, and I bought Dorek a minifig series 8 (the pirate.) After early brunch, we took
