Weekly Update - 1/15


Black Six

Intro

I could have watched Doctor Who all night, but I figured you guys were probably looking forward to a Weekly Update. Or if you weren't looking forward to it, you were at least expecting it to appear so you could laugh at it behind my back.

 

Updates

I wish something exciting had happened this week. Oh well.

 

BZPower received exclusive permission to host Glatorian Arena 3 on our site. Big thanks to Kelly (Binkmeister) for hooking us up, even though we all know he hates us Mac users. I kid. (But a working Mac version would be nice.) It's interesting that LEGO would pay to have this made but then never use it on Bionicle.com - I'm guessing the whole cancellation-thing threw a monkey wrench into their plans.

 

On the general LEGO front, everyone's favorite company launched their Click Campaign, which seems like a rather silly marketing strategy. The video on their site is pretty impressive though.

 

Speaking of online presences, the new Bionicle.com launched this week too. I really like the design (good job Kelly!) and look forward to hearing Worf Mata Nui regale us with some ancient history and current events.

 

Of course the biggest news this week was the first official Hero Factory information and pictures. I think the react to the sets has been pretty positive, whereas the names and the story have received a much more mixed bag of responses. I'll reserve my judgment until ToyFair, seeing as it's less than a month away! I'm pretty sure there's gonna be some more Hero Factory sets revealed then too. So keep your eyes peeled for that!

 

In BZPower news, it looks like there's going to be some staff shakeups coming up. Details are still in the works, but you may find yourself randomly contacted with an offer to get on the staff. (Because that's how we pick the staff - randomly.)

 

Mailbag

No questions? No problem!

 

Want to see your questions answered? PM them to me and put 'Mailbag' in the subject line. I'll pick the few I like the best and answer them in the next update.

 

Conclusion

I think that was plenty for this week. Feedback and questions are always welcome. Have a great weekend everyone!

Apparently there is a pilot for an American Toorchwod in the works and the original writers are working on it and some of the original cast members are supposed to be part of it. However that is only if the pilot actually gets made… the people reporting the story had no idea or care for what the program was.
