Late last week in a press release, The LEGO Group shared their intent to "achieve net-zero emissions by 2050" with regards to greenhouse gases. This doubles-down (triples?) on their previous pledge to reduce their emissions by 37% in 2032. The company is working with the Science Based Target initiative (SBTi) to develop a plan and goals to keep them on the right track. I look forward to seeing their progress over the next twenty-seven years and hope they reach their objective!

After a successful first foray into LEGO 2K Drive, we're revving up our engines for another night of racing! Come by the BZPower Twitch channel starting around 7:30 PM Eastern (but usually before) to watch us cruise around the open world, facing challenges and finding rivals to defeat. See you all there!

The unofficial start to autumn is here! If you're sad about summer ending, cheer yourself up by entering the 2023 Member Raffle #9 for a chance to win LEGO Star Wars set 75533 Boba Fett. Good luck everyone!

Tuesday again, hooray! And since we finished LEGO Jurassic World last week, it means this week we're diving into a new game! Join us starting around 7:30 PM Eastern over on the BZPower Twitch channel as we check out LEGO 2K Drive, a combination of my favorite toy and one of my least favorite game genres. It's sure to be an interesting experience that I look forward to sharing with you all!

We're two and a half weeks into our Villain Bracket, and it's time to peak at some of the numbers. So far, we've gotten 85 responses that show some expected results and a few surprises. Read on to see my analysis of the polls so far. (And we have more than a few close races, so if you haven't already, make sure to get your vote in!) -
And in the blink of an eye, August is practically gone. Before summer gives its last hurrah though, make sure you enter the 2023 Member Raffle #8! One lucky winner will walk away with 70786 Gali - Master of Water from the first wave of Bionicle G2 sets which, as a member pointed out, is averaging for over $100 on Bricklink these days. Good luck!

Earlier this week The LEGO Group announced the future home of their US headquarters: 1001 Boylston Street, Boston, MA, located in the Back Bay district of the city. The office will open in 2025 and the goal is to close their current Enfield, CT offices by the end of 2026. The press release and accompanying video really push all the perks of the new location, and while it does seem like it has a lot to offer, I certainly won't be surprised if employees don't want to uproot their lives in quiet Connecticut to move to a bustling city. It will be interesting to see how the transition progresses.

Tonight might be the last night we stream LEGO Jurassic World, but it depends on how good I am at saving people and dinosaurs and collecting gold bricks. Tune into the BZPower Twitch channel to find out! We'll be live by 7:30 PM Eastern, usually starting around 7:15 PM, and will go for around an hour (or until I finish the game). Looking forward to seeing you all there with all those dinos!

In case you missed it on 810NICLE Day, Team Kanohi released the BIONICLE: Masks of Power - Demo Trailer, teasing a playable demo for early 2024. You can follow the game on the Steam page for BIONICLE: Masks of Power to get notifications when it's available for download. I definitely plan on checking it out based on the beautiful trailer!

After a two-week hiatus for BrickFair, we're heading back to the BZPower Twitch channel tonight! Join us starting at or a bit before 7:30 PM Eastern as we dive back into LEGO Jurassic World and work on wrapping up the collectibles in the open-world areas. We're looking forward to seeing you there!

Earlier today The LEGO Group announced that VIP would be turning into Insiders, with many of the same features and the same points transferring over to the new program for discounts. In addition, you'll be able to scan the QR codes of LEGO set instructions you own to get additional points, which is a nice bonus. The new initiative launches on August 21st and you can learn more about it right here!

Happy 810nicle Day. Our little treat today is to launch a new voting bracket. Only this time, instead of looking at our favorite heroes from across Bionicle, we'll pick out our favorite villains, at least those at the canister set price levels. The first round is now live, and voting will last for a month. Read on for some more details and a selection of interesting rounds to keep an eye on. And stay tuned to BZPower to see the results and vote in future rounds!-

I was super excited when I heard that new Indiana Jones sets were coming out. In part it was Indiana Jones that got me back into collecting system sets back in the day, so I have a certain fondness for the theme. I didn't get the first iteration of the Lost Tomb, so I jumped to get this one. It's got Indy, it's got Sallah for the first time, it's got new Anubis statues, and it's got a Kaukau Easter egg! What more could you ask for?? -
July is quickly coming to a close, which means there's only a short time left to enter our two giveaways: the 2023 Member Raffle #7 offering up 75109 Obi-Wan Kenobi and the BZPower 22nd Anniversary Hewkii & Macku Dolls Giveaway with prizes kindly donated by Mushy the Mushroom! And don't forget our auction of the Rare Unreleased SDCC Kanoka Disc with 75% of the proceeds going to The Trevor Project. Best of luck everyone!

Happy Tuesday! We'll be over on the BZPower Twitch channel tonight starting at 7:30 PM Eastern (or before) to play some more LEGO Jurassic World! We've finished all of the campaign levels and now we get to explore the open world to get the rest of the gold bricks we need to complete the game. We'll be taking the next two weeks off due to BrickFair NoVa, so after tonight we'll see you again in mid-August!

In celebration of BZPower's 22nd birthday, member Mushy the Mushroom released some artwork she spent over sixty hours working on: the Birthday BZP'23 Profile Picture Pencil Project. So not only did she donate the adorable Hewkii & Macku Dolls that we're giving away, she drew 21 pictures of the avatars of current and former staff to celebrate the anniversary of our community. A huge heartfelt thanks goes out to you, Mushy the Mushroom, and to everyone who makes BZP awesome!

Much like in real life, after twenty-one it's hard to have a big birthday celebration unless it ends in a zero, so we're keeping things simple this year. Free for all members to enter is the BZPower 22nd Anniversary Hewkii & Macku Dolls Giveaway kindly donated by Mushy the Mushroom. These two dolls are adorable and I'm sure they'll make an awesome addition to someone's collection. We are also auctioning off a rare unreleased SDCC Kanoka Disc with 75% of the proceeds going to The Trevor Project. I know of three of these that exist, and I've never seen one for sale before, so I'm hoping we raise a good amount of money for a great cause!

It boggles my mind that twenty-two years later, BZPower is still around celebrating our anniversary. I'd like to thank each and very member of the community, past and present, who has made us who we are and has left their mark on the Bionicle community in the process. It's been such a pleasure to interact with so many of you over the years: on the forums, at conventions, on streams, and more. It's hard to say what the future holds, but I hope there will be more LEGO Bionicle fun on BZPower! Happy birthday!

We're nearing the bottom reaches of our tour through ****** as we get to the last of our Bio-Cup 2023 Round Two coverage. The final subthemes include Violence, Fraud, and Treachery, and the models are not for the faint of heart! But that's okay, because they're still impressive!-
