  1. Do you have any spares of certain Kanohi and Krana? If not, are you willing to part out some of them?? If you're willing to part them out I can also pay extra for the displays. My collection is like 80% complete, and I need about 25 masks and Krana in all. I'm also in Canada if that helps. Also, do you have any Krana Kal?
  2. I might take all of those Bohrok and Bohrok Va off your hands, as well as possibly the Boxor. Do you have any spare Krana and other Kanohi as well? Would you be able to ship to Canada too?
  3. I'd rather they stray away from gimmicky launchers. There were quite a few launchers in G1 that ranged from finicky (Nyrah blasters, Cordak blasters) to downright awful (Those squid launchers). I'd say they could just make a few different kinds of launchers and NOT make them the main focus for each set of characters.
  4. Wish granted. Enjoy very raw footage that they cooked up in about fifteen minutes. I wish I didn't feel fatigue.
  5. Sweet. Two clear Tahu masks up for grabs. Now, I wonder when the rest of that bag will come into circulation...
  6. LEGO-Os My cereal of choice. Especially since they aren't round, but square.
  7. I'll be completely frank with my thoughts on this set: It isn't for the kids. LOSS has an uncanny amount of Technic pieces, unlike any constraction set since the Hero Factory vehicles. For a model, it very much reminds me of the 2001 Rahi, right down to the finnicky functions and lots of basic Technic usage. I'm getting a huge Rahi vibe from LOSS. As for the appeal to kids, I fail to see any. It's a villain, it has a golden skull spider mask, but the model is very lacking by today's standards. Strictly looking at the demographic, I fear that I'll be seeing a lot of LOSSes (no pun intended) on toy store shelves, as kids flock to the more posable and appealing Toa and even the Protectors. LOSS always felt to be the odd one out of this wave, and this review proves it. I'm not saying I'm NOT interested in the set; on the contrary, it evokes the 2001 Rahi like I already said. It has a unique build for CCBS constraction figures. The only comparison I could make is with 2011's Scorpio, but that uses CCBS bones for the limbs and looks generally a mess in my opinion. Of course, the system had just started, and it was still unique. Saleswise, LOSS could be a hit-or-miss, a bit of a wild card. A good selection of parts for MOCing, so AFOLs could buy a bunch of them for parts packs. Kids could buy it for the big villain. But on the flipside, LOSS could be completely ignored for AFOL nostalgia for the Toa and kids wanting the cooler-looking and more playable Masters. I guess time can only tell how popular LOSS will really be. As for myself, I'll definitely get one, just after I get my hands on the sets that will for sure be in high demand (Kopaka and Tahu are my top priority).
  8. I daresay that your rendition of Tahu's mask is better than the official one. This is desktop background worthy stuff here, my friend! Hopefully you'll stick around a bit for the ride this year.
  9. "YouTube comments"... Unless they link to a plausible source, I consider any and all YouTube comments to be lies until proven with damning evidence. The same goes with a lot of videos predicting later products (like the iPhone 6 leak videos which have been going round since the 5S came out). From what we can understand here, there WILL be a new constraction theme in 2015. And that's all we can go on. I'm not getting my hopes up that it's BIONICLE.
  10. ^ This. Five for the notion.
  11. Give me Spot 9.
  12. I was about to take the Mask, but... Ew. I'll leave it for someone else.
  13. I give you all a slap with my Holy Mackerel (FISH KILL!) and take the mask. MY MASK.
  14. Wibbly-Wobbly, Timey-Wimey... Blimey, I sure am glad I'm still David Tenant! 1700s Prussia... Oh, this is one bit of Earth's history I never really thought about. Three (deleted!) episodes of Doctor Who later, I hop into my TARDIS (Which I got back in Part 2 of "The Pirates of Prussia") and figure out where exactly the Mask is. I find out that time has gone a bit askew, and there are now TWO masks for me to worry about. I head down to Modern-day Earth, grab myself a cute companion, and we spend a whole bloody season doing nothing, but somehow this all leads up to finding the first mask. We end up in Fekoro's Moonship (TOTALLY NOT A DEATH STAR), with guns aimed at us. I say some rousing speech about unlimited power in the wrong hands, and the deaths of so many, and the fact that there are TWO masks now, creating a paradox. At that time, Quisoves shows up. Me being Scottish and his being part Irish ends up with me grabbing Ignika Prime and pitting it against his Paradox Ignika. Planets are destroyed, universes freeze, creations burn, timelines written and rewritten again until my companion smacks Quisoves across the back of the head with a fish (FISH KILL!). Due to poor writing with time travel, the Paradox Ignika fades away. All of time and space is restored. Quisoves, unable to concentrate after being hit with the Sacred Cod, is detained by Fekoro's bots. Companion and I slip out, making our leave in the TARDIS... WITH THE MASK. TL;DR I undid the paradox Quisoves did on us and now have the mask. Good luck trying to find out where and when I am!!!
