    wat the cee
  2. thanks for the comments everyone! I can't say I'm very into transformers but... I did see the first three films in the cinema because big robots Didn't feel like they left much of an impression at the time, but maybe I did get something from them? at any rate, the whole build started out with me wanting to make a head with those horn parts like so, and the rest was just a fierce struggle to make it something relatively head-shaped, so I'm almost prepared to chalk it up to coincidence well, I guess we'll see! there's some great competition, and tastes differ, after all. he literally lives alone under a volcano (thanks!) it is indeed a deception. the contest allowed tape, so I just made a ball of the stuff and stuck parts to it. it's great no but thanks! I'm kind of curious myself as to how the finished build looks with the armour off, so I might get a picture of the whole internal structure just for fun.
  3. click for full size ReBrick, Flickr My entry to the "Show us your Makuta" challenge on ReBrick. The initial idea was to make a maxed out version of his 2003 form, with some inspiration taken from his G2 masks. this is the result. looking forward to hearing your thoughts!
  4. The BBC guidelines say this, I'm pretty sure it's applicable here: But so you don't have access to a computer you could post the pictures from? If not, my best suggestion is to search around for internet guides that could help you get those technical difficulties sorted out. I'm certain more people are having trouble downloading apps and things.
  5. reminder that this means a bigger portion of your $20 would be going towards the packaging, so the set itself would inevitably be smaller. and despite providing an (arguably) better experience, canisters are worse from both an economic and an environmental standpoint. given Lego's current packaging policy, it would be quite a double standard if they started making plastic containers again. I'd rather have them improve the sturdiness of the current box design, the fragility is its biggest flaw in my opinion
  6. and basically any other song from the soundtrack, really. There's so much to it, from deep atmospheric music to intense battle themes, with a bunch of fun and silly songs to top it off.
  7. apparently Lego didn't get my phone number, and it took me forever to notice they were trying to contact me, but here we are. now I was thinking, perhaps I should just not open this box just so that whenever someone goes "so what 2015 sets do you have", I can be like "all of them. theoretically." then I'll shake a sheet of paper with Schrödinger's face printed on it right in front of them for several minutes
  8. oh I was actually 14 when BBC 60 was on, and my entry ended up getting first place. anecdotal perhaps, but it does happen. and I mean, there are some good intentions behind this idea, but there's no way of seeing whether the respective group requirements would be followed correctly. in practice, we'd have a contest that's harder to moderate - there would most likely be an influx of cheaters, and with that the point of age groups would already be defeated. (also on a side note, having a job does not always equal having the financial security to buy toys)

    Trio

    click for full version So today was Brickeens' 19:th birthday(!!), and for the occasion I made this. In order from left to right - Sumiki's Toa of Iron, Brickeens' Toa of Stone, and then whatever my character is. thoughts are appreciated :j
  10. okay yeah, except if they deployed a Toa of magnetism, a hypothetical crew of clown villains would just be instantly defeated
  11. I don't have Lhikan, but I'd like to direct you to the Bricklink lots - the ones there are relatively fairly priced. I hope that helps
  12. so second place is a thing! because of this, I've updated the topic with new pictures - ones without the weird lamplight. (that was only there because I was taking pictures at 2 AM okay) okay I can honestly say I didn't make that connection. thanks though! thanks, I hope he doesn't just come off as a Balrog ripoff. :V oh wow, well I'm glad you like it! this is probably the most positive response I've gotten on any moc. thanks! (I'd be lying if I said I wasn't quite happy with that head) thanks Roa, I'm glad you like it. and good luck against the other finalists! oh yeah, the HF talons are great for shaping. I was thinking they'd do a good job of representing some kind of muscle shape on the upper arms. thank you! I googled "impressed colour" and ended up playing little colour recognition games for twenty minutes, so unfortunately that question will have to remain unanswered thanks a lot though! I've yet to see that in its entirety, but I can definitely see the resemblance. The legs aren't my favourite part, but at least they don't stand out as terrible either, then? thanks a lot for the comments, everyone! don't forget to point out anything you don't like, that helps me improve.
  13. A big congrats to Roa, good luck in the finals! And of course, thanks times a billion to the judges and LEGO. the key word here is "coincidental". six judges from different websites won't take into account what credentials you have on one particular site. LEGO's judges even less so.
  14. I can't believe I forgot that. it was my one responsibility (also Tekulo, he's just angry and on fire a lot)
  15. One of the reasons I was happy with Helsephyr is that he's so consistent with my drawing style, so here's a quick attempt at a photoshop sketch of him. don't mind the halo thing, that's just for the sake of composition I think. (also oops the head turned out way too flat looking, but it'll have to do)
  16. I'd feel pretty bad for your wallet
  17. everyone stop making blog entries for a month, nothing will beat this one in terms of importance
  18. Flickr Gallery Helsephyr is my primary entry for the BFTGM, and also the first proper moc I've finished in four years. The general idea is that he's a guardian of heat that awoke when the Mask Makers began harnessing fire to create Masks of power, and now haunts the island seeking to destroy the forge, so that no one may use the source of his power for their own gain. Also, his eyes glow when under a light. Criticism is appreciated.
  19. (click the thing) So I finished something for the first time in just about four years, and I'm not terribly unhappy with it either!
  20. Entry name: Helsephyr Entry Image, Gallery when public Helsephyr is an old guardian of the flame, and grew restless when the Mask Makers began harnessing the heat to create masks of power. He lumbers across Okoto, leaving a trail of ash in his wake. He seeks to locate the Mask Makers' forge and destroy it, so that no one may rival him in the control of his element.
  21. oops I guess I'm entering something I built more than four years ago Entry name: Ancient Entry image, Gallery
  22. I knew I had to get Meltdown first as soon as I saw the pictures, so yeah. He's definitely my favourite of all HF villains.
  23. I really like Takadox, he has a lot of character what with the hunched posture and sort of skeletal appearance. Maxilos and Spinax were great for parts, but I don't really remember what the set was like. None of the Toa really stuck with me though, I guess I liked Hahli the most because of the wings, and also because it's Hahli.
  24. this is beyond beautiful. if the change is reversed I will personally go to the server BZP is hosted on and draw angry faces on it
