    #9 Hedorah

    By Brappy Hour,

    Hedorah
    Hedorah appeared in Godzilla vs. Hedorah (Godzilla vs. The Smog Monster for older fans). He also got his butt kicked in Godzilla Final Wars. Anyway Hedorah is literally made of pollution. Slimey gunky nasty filthy disgusting pollution. He can transform into a flight mode and back to a pile of filth. He blinded Godzilla with nasty goo and turned people into skeletons by dispersing toxic gas into the air. Obviously Hedorah isn't a very likable or a cool monster. He's too disgusting to be enjoyed. Just like the horrible movie he was featured in.

    Name Change

    By Brappy Hour,

    Hello everyone. I decided to try out a new screen name. I've been wanting to change my name for a while, but I was always reluctant to. Now I feel more comfortable with the name that I had earned, and has a lot of meaning to me as well. If it doesn't work out, I can change it back later
     
    You can always call me Raptor, but I just felt like trying something new. I hope you like it.
     
    Thanks for reading, Silent Helper

    Deep Thoughts

    By Brappy Hour,

    When I think of words to describe myself, I try to think of truthful answers. Respectful, Honorable, Fair, and whatever else may come to mind. Of course there are also negatives. Some say that I am negative myself, and may have a tendency to complain. Fair enough. Close friends and family also tell me that I don't give myself enough credit for my accomplishments and achievements.
    Why? I feel that if I took too much pride in my success it may lead to awful things. Also, some say that I don't deserve what I have been given. I can't really do anything but to feel a bit discomfort in regards to that.
     
    I also have a great hatred for my jealousy. Jealousy for those who have great talent, are successful, and who are loved by many. I'm even jealous of my friends, which is an awful thing to do. I then tell myself of all the good things that have happened to me, and the gifts given to me by life.
     
    Lets use this blog forum as an example. Right now, I see myself as a serious person, maybe not. I can't think of any funny things to post, I don't have any wonderful poems or fancy artwork to post, or have snazzy comments to say. So I post my opinion and things that have happened to me. I feel so blaned and generic. It makes me feel like I'm being dumb just having a blog in the first place.
     
    I'm not trying to be depressing. This is just what happens sometimes when I, or even others are in deep thought.
     
    That's about it. Thanks for reading.

    Explanation Now!

    By Brappy Hour,

    Time to explain for my last entry. Well an era long ago called the 90s, I was a huge fan of Power Rangers. I loved the Zord battles and also the epic monster explosions when they were defeated. I don't have much left from my Power Ranger phase, but when I found out they were releasing redesigned and more accurate versions of the original Megazords. I saw this as a opportunity to not only finally get the action figures that I always wanted, but to reminisce and remember the parts of my childhood I enjoyed the most.
     
    Also they're really cheap for some reason, so no complaints here. All we need now is the Dragonzord, and I'll be satisfied.
     
    So sorry for the random entry, and I'm thankful that The Power Has Returned.
     


    Oh yeah, might talk about the Halo stuff soon too.....

    Here

    By Brappy Hour,

    Just wanted to write an entry here, so to let you know what has been going on since I last posted.

    Bionicle news:
    I acquired the Bionicle sets needed to make the Stars combiner. It's bigger than I thought it would be, but there still was a number of parts left over.
     
    Halo News:
    Got Halo Legends this week (Two Disk Edition). I have mixed opinions about it. Like the certain types of animation used and that you wouldn't be able to understand most of the stories unless you were a hardcore Halo fan, and you would have needed to read some of the novels to understand. I may write a review soon if I have the attention span to.

    Gaming News:
    Xbox 360 is broken, so I had to pay $99.99 to send it in to get fixed. I pray that it returns soon and in time for the Halo Reach Beta.
     
    Bought Pokemon Soul Silver, and it's eating up most of my time now (as Pokemon games usually have). Spend most of my time training the ones I have and battling in hope I may be able to create my favorite team later after I have beaten the game.

    Life:
    BrickFair, the shirts that I might have to make, and building the Rahi Nui are kinda put on hold for now.
     
    Lots of changes in school too, but you wouldn't want to hear about that.
     
    Note: Going to start a marathon about a graphic design project next week. So stay tuned.

    Klondike Derby

    By Brappy Hour,

    Just got back today. If you don't know, a Klondike Derby is when different Boy Scout troops come together and compete to see who has the greatest skills.
     
    I was a staff member again this year. A Field Marshal actually. And did other objectives to help the competition run smoothly.
     
    A patrol in my troop won first prize this year. Which is great! My troop also won the Troop Challenge.
     
    But it was freezing on Grandfather Mountain, and snowy, and windy!

    Trusted

    By Brappy Hour,

    From Watashi Wa:


    It's such an honor I can't begin to explain. Thanks Watashi Wa. But most of all I thank all of the people who have traded with me over the years.
     
    Thanks to the Trading Forum. I've completed the majority of my Bionicle collection, and I'll keep trading as long as I have things to trade with.
     
    Thanks again to all.

    BrickFair 2013

    By Brappy Hour,

    Yes. I'm already planning for it. I even have a design in mind for this years T-shirt.
     
    Actually I've been wanting to ask how people feel about how LEGO discontinued the discounts for BrickFair attendees. I know that they announced it in their email newsletter, but I wanted to see if people would still go to the LEGO store during BrickFair without the discount. Personally I probably would. I can't help being a Hero Factory fan. So I would do what I did last year, and build all the summer sets for everyone to see.
     
    And seeing the new trailer for Brain Attack, it looks like there might be some larger sets this year. Boy do I miss building huge those Bionicle models. Why are Hero Factory sets so tiny?
     
    Anyway let me know what you think.
     
    Thanks for reading, Raptor.

    Minifig Me

    By Brappy Hour,

    Went through my OLD LEGO minifig collection today. I found some OLD Star Wars stuff, and even OLDER Lego themes that I can't even name. So I took some parts and made some fun minifig representations of myself.
     
    Version Uno
    Verison Uno (Raised Visor)
     
    Fun Version
    I've had this custom since I was a kid. I changed the body though for the cool mechanical look.
     
     
    What do you think? Should I add or change anything?

    Building Kyry

    By Brappy Hour,

    So today while I was Surfing on Biosector01, I was looking at the new entries of Agori and Glatorian. While looking at different village I saw that there was an entry for the Agori Kyry, who was featured in Raid on Vulcanus, who was the guard for Vulcanus as well as the one who spread the word of the good deeds done by the Glatorian.


    » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « 
    I saw that there was a picture of this set, and that it seems to be build-able thanks to the pictures provided by Sparky, the one who designed Kyry's cannon form. So, awesome. Another cannon set to make!
     
    I've found most of the small parts in my array of random Bionicle parts, but there are some major parts needed too.
     
    So that should be pretty fun.

    Megaman?

    By Brappy Hour,

    I finished playing Megaman Zero 4 last weekend, and after seeing the new Hero Factory enemies I realized something. They remind me strongly of Megaman enemies. The reason is the different bosses from different areas of random elements that cause trouble so that Megaman/The Hero's have to go to to stop them. Here's how I see it.
     
    Xplode = Bomb Man
    Meltdown = Radioactive Man
    Corroder = Rust Man
    Thunder = Metal Man
    Rotor = Copter Man
    Von Nebula = Dr. Wily

    Oh yeah. Great names by the way. I guess it saved Lego a few brain cells this year.
     
    Power News:
     
    It seems there won't be a Dragonzord re-release. At least this year. Next year hopefully.
     
    Brickfair News:
     
    Need to start building Rahi Nui. And EW needs to keep in contact with me! :angry:

    Well, more like avoiding it. Remember me and toa of life were dating? And we exchange lots of heart felt words, and I expressed how much I loved her?
     
    Well she broke up with me.....

    Well. For those who were generous enough to stop by and take interest in my cereal box project. It is complete.
     
    Here is the whole box. Click Here

    #5 Titanosaurus

    By Brappy Hour,

    Titanosaurus

     
    Titanosaurus made his first appearance in Terror of MechaGodzilla, the sequal to Godzilla vs. Mecha Godzilla. As some have said, Titanosaurus was a more aquatic version of Godzilla, and the look was pretty interesting.
     
    Titanosaurus didn’t really have any special powers, but he did use his webbed tail to create cyclones, so I guess that counts.
     
    I just like Titanosaurus for some reason, and not just because he’s a dinosaur. To me he had unique design, even though some might argue that he looks generic. His roar was neat to hear and of a different variety, but with other viewers they say it’s annoying and more so of a bad cackle.
     
    The only other movie Titanosaurus made an appearance in was when a clip of him was shown in Godzilla Final Wars, as an example of monsters that were a menace to humanity. A somewhat cameo if you will.

  25. Brappy Hour
    Hello to all. To the few people who read these journals, I apologize for the lack of writing. It's a mix between the business in life, and the fear that nobody cares.
     
    Anyway. After all this time and weeks before BrickFair. The T-shirts for BrickFair 2012 are finished. The shirts this year will be $15. The reason being a lot more effort was put into these shirts. A lot of travel to the store, and most of all commissioning fellow member Vezok's Friend to create a design for this year. However this may be the best BZP shirt yet. I'm not sure if I'll post a picture though. I might save it as a surprise for those who go to the convention.
     
    The amount of shirts are:
     
    10 small
    10 Medium
    10 Large
    5 XL
    4 2XL
     
    I look forward to seeing you all there, and I hope you all enjoy the convention, as well as a BZP shirt.
     
    Thanks for reading, Raptor.
