I leave home for a few days, and look what happens.

Maybe it's poor observation on my part, but it seems like the US has been getting shafted on release dates over the past few years. I remember sets used to consistently come out end of June, no later than end of July. Now there are plenty of times I'll go to a store never seeing new sets for the longest time.

It was a tough choice between Photok and Makuta. I really like the simplicity of Photok, but I have to give it to Makuta.

I have to say that Oohnorak's use of ccbs is lovely and adorable overall.

If I hadn't entered, I'd have to go with Vezon. As great as Dume and Nivawk, I feel like the ccbs is a bit weak since ccbs revolves around the use of bones.

I have to say, I love the way you build the bodies. And don't worry about a having feminine figure or not. Who says that a girl has to be feminine or vice versa.

This is really cute! n__n I have no idea how you kept the body so small, but I love it. Especially the head.

Thanks! Unfortunately, the mail room here screwed me over again by being closed on Saturday, though the mail could've been faster, too, since I ordered them the week before. I got the blue spines the following Monday, but the entry period already ended.

Thanks! It is Gadunka's head haha, and I really wish I could've gotten a better angle of it. I do see what you mean about the skull spiders. But in person, the greens don't contrast as much, plus they have a similar texture to the small Takadox armor pieces. I really did contemplate on which colored Skull Spiders to use, but I felt like the dark blue ones stood out too much.

Not to be that guy, but there's still time. It still goes till about midnight, not noon haha

Welp.. I entered. And it terrified me. But I finally entered.

Nocturn Prisoner of the Deep I don't really know what to say other than it's Nocturn in CCBS. I thought Nocturn would've been a good idea to try until I saw him mentioned. So I redecided to try Kardas until that didn't work either. So In the end, I ended up re-purposing the Kardas I had into Nocturn. And I have to say that I'm personally happy with how he turned out. Here are a few other pictures of him when it's public, but I don't have a great camera to take pictures with. http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=553360

Not specific to just the contest, but legal building as a whole, are we allowed to remove printings from parts? I'm curious because if pieces came with stickers instead, like Onua's chest, but we didn't put them on, are we allowed to take the printing off another Toa's chest?

I find this baffling that they won't be released in North America. Though I suppose after the whole late Hero Factory release...

Won't somebody please think of the children?! But in all seriousness, I liked it when Lego didn't have so many licensed themes.
