  1. 1. What country are you from? The good ol' USA.2. What languages do you speak? English and a bit of French.3. Can you easily buy Lego products in your country? Yes, but embarrassment usually prevents me from doing so. 4. Can you still find Bionicle/older Hero Factory sets in your shops? I actually bought an old Bionicle set at a Rite-Aid not to long ago. But they're pretty difficult to find.5. How long does it take for the latest Lego sets to reach stores? Can't say I know that.6. Do you buy Lego products in shops or online? Which is easier? Online is easier for me, but if I see something I really want at a store I'll buy it.7. Would you like to see more Lego products available in your country? I'm pretty sure we have enough to go around.9. Why do you think I missed out the number 8? So you could make us all feel stupid. 10. Am I wasting my time, and does anyone remember me? I do remember you!
  2. I think the reason that the BZPower community is so awesome is because the people who are really interested are also older, mature, and able to have intelligent discussions and create great content for the site. But also, the actually toy-line is for younger people so the posts are usually respectful and positive.
  3. Personally, I would hate if Bionicle was a film/TV series. Not because it wouldn't be epic, because it definitely would be, but it would've ended a lot earlier because it would require a huge fanbase for the producers to be motivated to keep creating new movies/shows. And in my opinion, Bionicle is a story that is neither simple enough that kids can follow the entire story nor dramatic enough that adults would be overly interested in it. So the audience probably wouldn't be that big, and odds are they would probably run out of ideas a lot earlier. And Bionicle kind of already is a book series, and in my opinion that worked out great.
  4. If I had to pick one wave it would be the Piraka because their sets actually had personality, and I loved them in the storyline too. The worst wave would have to be the Stars because the design was flat-out lazy in my opinion, which was disappointing because they were supposed to be a homage to Bionicle in general.
  5. Didn't Germany also have that Lego bridge? What is it with them and Lego? :PVery cool, looks awesome.

    Corruption

    Not a bad introduction; nothing's really wrong with the series, it's just a very generic introduction. But it's hard to gauge a series based on the first comic, so I'll keep an eye on this series.
  7. One of the Stars, either Nektann or Skrall; I can't say I remember since I got rid of all of my sets. I'll hopefully be buying some off of eBay soon.
  8. Anything unrelated to Bionicle, really. I joined the site for Bionicle, that's really all that I want from it.
  9. Really any of the original Mata masks. They are all very distinctive and original.I also really like the Kraahkan; it looks so menacing.
  10. The main problem with franchises such as Bionicle is that there will always be discrepancies. It's simply a fact of life.That being said, none of the discrepancies in Bionicle are all that noticeable/impactful. I can't think of any off of the top of my head.
  11. I think the Great Beings made the Matoran so that they could adapt and account for "freak things" that could happen to the robot, while machines would have a harder time doing so.Honestly though, it's because Bionicle wouldn't exist if they were machines.
  12. I think it would have been cool if they simply ended the series on the cliffhanger of 2008, waited a year or two for dramatic effect (and so that they could come up with some original sets and plot twists), and then came back with something similar to the Bara Magna story line. As for the actual ending, I would have liked to see Mata Nui lose to Makuta, then right before Makuta delivers the final blow, the MU inhabitants come up with some plan to destroy Makuta. Mata Nui dies nobly, everyone else lives happily ever after.
  13. Go ahead and cancel my request; I managed to make something.
  14. The main problem with the second entry is that I couldn't even understand it. But nonetheless, congrats to all the winners.
  15. I voted for Strawberry Ice-Cream, it was the one I enjoyed reading the most. I do, however, commend Traitor for its visuals.And as for the second entry...I don't find it humorous or interesting. What's sad is that it actually takes talent to make a comic that horribly disfigured, and the author could of used that talent to make a decent entry.
  16. First off, you should probably credit the creator of the kit before you credit the people who have inspired you (and you could probably fit them all in a single line, it was a little bit annoying for me to read ). Now, on to the comics themselves.The first rule, in my eyes, to making comics is to have them look clean, and that's where you seem to fall short. You should try to punctuate correctly and use uppercase and lowercase letters correctly (this applies to the actual topic and the comics). This is an easy thing to do, and it really does affect how people think of your comics. :)Another thing you could probably work on is making the comics more understandable. What really made this comic hard to understand was the abundance of characters. You should either have less characters, or have only 1-3 appear at a time. Also, this will make it easier to understand who's talking, which was also an issue (You should also draw a line from the text to who's talking; another easy thing to do which has a huge impact). Another, less serious issue would be to have your comics have more of a plot, and be a little bit longer. I know the title says random, but even random comics should have a storyline.I know this is a lot of advice, but it's mostly quick fixes. Good luck with your comics, and don't feel like you have to take my advice. Just have fun making your comics, nothing else really matters.
  17. Image Type & Dimensions: 500x100 for the banner, 100x100 for the avatar Exact Text: "Byased" Describe What You Want: Basically, all I want is my username in an avatar and banner in a stylish font with some simplistic typography. Feel free to be creative, otherwise you can PM me and I'll have a few ideas you can use. Thanks!
  18. I would say 2006, if I had to chose one year. 2006 was simple to understand, well paced, and had a lot going on to keep people interested (the first few years of Bionicle could also be summarized easily in a good 1-2 minute long intro). However, what I think would work really well would be a trilogy for 2006-2008. That would be epic.
  19. I would agree with most of the other people said: he isn't necessarily evil, he was just driven insane by jealousy. He can't really be blamed either, I'm pretty sure most people would go insane if they had to live where he did.
