  1. Many, many years ago back in '01. In a feverish search across the internet for any news on the upcoming Bionicle line, I stumbled upon a teaser for an under-construction website called Kanohi-Power. I believe the site was partnered with the message board "BionicleZone" at the time. This was before the Kanohi-Power/BionicleZone merger, of course. If anyone is interested, I dug up an old snapshot of the early days of Kanohi-Power.
  2. Usually I'm not initially thrilled with some of the preliminary images of sets, but they almost always eventually grow on me. This guy, however, I really can't get behind. Although a very unorthodox design from LEGO, it comes across looking more like a jumbled Chinese knock-off rather than the usual quality produced by the company.I'm glad to see so many unique and new colors, but I'm not sure slapping the whole rainbow on this guy was a good idea. It leaves me wondering if the designers at LEGO weren't too inspired this time around. It reminds me of those old "Invincibility Robots" from China.On a side note: I am digging Bulk, Core Hunter, and Stormer.
  3. My story is almost exactly like yours. I bought all the Throwbots and RoboRiders when they came out, but in December of Y2K, I spotted Bionicle on LEGO's website and was instantly sold on the whole idea. The only problem was that Bionicle wouldn't be launched until the summer of 2001, so I was not a happy camper. To my surprise, the January edition of the LEGO magazine had the Tahu/Vakama early release combo offer on the back cover. Obviously, I jumped on it right away.Bionicle also came out at a big time in my life. Not only did I move homes that year, it was the year The Fellowship of the Ring was released in theaters, along with Disney's Atlantis (an inspiring film for my then eleven-year-old mind), and it was when I first played Majora's Mask.
  4. Old 2001 McDonald's Tohunga (Matoran) parts scattered across a dentist parking lot back in '06. I think it was Kongu. In '03 I spotted some Turaga Onewa sets for sale in the Terminator Ride gift shop in Universal Studios Orlando FL.
  5. As far as I'm concerned, if the Glatorian are not getting their own category, then neither should Agori. Simplicity is key to order. However, if Glatorian are getting their own category, then I believe Agori should too, in order to separate the old from the new. One thing to consider, however, is that whether or not Gresh and Lewa are heroes, people may get confused between the two races -- think they are both either Toa or Glatorian. Perhaps the Bara Magnans need their own categories or some form of distinct separation from the Matoran Universe? Just a thought. ~T11~

    Coincidences

    I suppose the real question here is, what exactly were you two talking about? New music, I hope! ~T11~

    Game Sneak Peek

    Any way we can get this thing ported to the iPhone? You could sell in in the App Store, just as LEGO is currently selling the Batman game. I'd buy it in a heart beat. ~T11~
  8. how is proto formed how is proto formed Yeah, people should just do what I did. Be here for such an absurdly long time that they'll look at you and be like "Why don't they have more proto?" and pay for the rest of it. I mean, if you really care. It's not like you win anything from having a ton of proto. You used to be able to win a Copper Huna. |MX| Indeed. I got not only a copper Huna, but a bag full of Kraata! ~T11~

    Empire Of The Skrall

    I'm very glad I've decided to stay around so long. This year alone is worth all the wait. ~T11~
  10. My PC died, so the Redemption was put on hold. It has now evolved into 'Ghosts of Nynrah'.

  11. As we Russian's say, "Всякому овощу своё время!"

    (Every thing is good in its season.)

  12. Even with the more violent scenes, I must say that Casino Royale was my favorite Bond movie. That's saying something, since I am a long-time Bond fan. The action was fast paced and very creative. I was totally shocked when I first heard Craig was the new Bond, but he pulled it off better that anyone yet! Heck, even the gambling scene was fun to watch. However, none of this movie was for kids that age, and I agree fully with you. If these kids are asking the questions that you claim, and the father was having to lie to them, then why on Earth go see it with them? They were obviously still innocent and naive in that area, so why break that? There were plenty of other good movies to have seen, such as Flushed Away or Happy Feet. ~T11~

    A Fistful Of Krana

    Cool! Sounds like next year will really be cool. However, one mystery would need to be where did the Nuva symbols come from? Or, where does energized Protodermis come from? ~T11~
