  1. IC: Charlinia:20:0 Charlina watched as Unit faded from sight, and quickly threw a sheet of magma over the spot where he vanished, however, as she did this, a bolt suddenly hit her side. (-1) She then pulled a wave of lava from the volcanic crater and sent it towards her assailant while backing towards the bubbling crater.
  2. IC: Charlinia:20:0 As Charlinia attempted to agitate the volcano, something suddenly hit her, filling her ears with so much shocking noise, it was all she could do to stop the flow of energy. Whirling, she spotted Unit coming for her and threw up a wall of lava to block the continued assault of sound.
  3. IC: Charlinia:20:0 Keeping her balance with her maul, Charlinia notices the battlefield location and smiles, sending a surge of elemental energy into the volcano, triggering an eruption.
  4. Name: Charlinia Species: Toa Power/Weapon 1: Elemental control of Lava Power/Weapon 2: Mask of telekinesis shaped like a Rau. Power/Weapon 3: Massive Mace (It's so huge it should probably be classified as a maul, but whatever) Appearance: She is a red and dark orange Toa with maroon armor.
  5. I have yet to see a shorter/better summery of the bionicle storyline.
  6. The new mixels look pretty good, but none grab me like the Spikels did.
  7. I can't tell if I should be pleased or worried about the near complete lack of criticism.
  8. I love how quick everyone is to criticize the Dilophosaurus (for good reason), but no one seems to notice that the so called Velociraptors are actually another species entirely.
  9. Early yesterday I submitted my entry through the proper form. Is there a reason I wasn't added, or have you just not gotten around to updating the list?
  10. Not a bad moc, if a bit simplistic. I believe the logo was meant to resemble a kraata. However, in 2004, there was a red rahkshi like serpent encountered by the toa. So I guess this could be a revamp of that.
  11. I'm glad to see you guys like it so much! When I was making it, I tried to work off the original set's strengths, and replace the weaknesses. The original set's color scheme was surprising when I sat down and looked at it. Other than the mask and part of his feet, he featured almost no black, opting for grey, red, and gunmetal. So when I made mine, I nixed the grey, and focused on black and gunmetal, with highlights of red. The legs were easily the weakest part of the original. My version's legs aren't anything to complex, but they get the job done and look good. I imagine a movie style Kraahkan might look better, but unfortunately I lost mine at some point down the road along with my gold Avohkii. Ah well. the trans glitter one is cooler anyway.
  12. This is a CCBS Remake of the the classic 2003 Makuta set. When designing him, the breakthrough was the shoulder design. I was able to use two torso armors and a shoulder armor on a tiny torso to make the shoulders resemble the armor on the original set. The full gallery can be found here. Comments are appreciated!
  13. I see Darth Vader and I love it. Then I see the $30 price. I'm gonna have to see the rest of the sets before I can decide if that's a good price.
  14. We can have multiple MOCs in a entry? Any limit on this? Or should the different MOCs have to go together?
  15. My theory is that it is actually a mask of reanimation, and that LOSS used it to bring the skulls of a thousand generations of okotians to life to serve as his minions. When he and his spiders failed to stop the toa, he then uses it to revive past heros to stop the toa.
  16. The Evidence all points in one direction. Vote: Potoo Quisoves
  17. Mask Maker vs. Skull Grinder is the Must Have set. Skull Basher is the Unique set. Skull Warrior is the Decent set. Skull Slicer is the Parts pack. Skull Scopio is the Let down.
  18. Lets get names for the protectors before we worry about swarm enemies.
  19. Wrapping a single layer of tape around it should help.
  20. Mask Maker: Looks pretty much spot on. I'm glad he has elbows. Better yet, his hammer uses two of those trans blue gun pieces from the iron-man ultra build as the knob. I never got queen beast, so I'm glad to see those chima scalloped armor pieces. Skull Grinder: A bit spindly, but he has the best color scheme, and has some great parts, including plenty of armor add-ons and axes. Plus he comes with Ekimu and MOC, so whats not to love? Skull slicer: A bit boney, but those trans-green limbs are calling to me, and you get a whopping six, as well as three swords and other nice pieces. The lack of a new mask is a downer. Even a white recolored spider mask would've been great. Skull basher: Looks pretty good, But I'll reserve judgement until I can see how his function works. If it is side to side, the horns look like they would interfere. Skull warrior: A pretty basic one, but the bow looks cool, and he has no real cons other than the rather skeletal construction. He is also the first contraction set to make use of the clips on those feet, so that's something. Skull scorpio: I don't get it. He is at the same price point as LOSS, so why was loss so good, but scorp so... iffy looking? He looks to have quite a few nice parts, but the function looks very tacked on and bad looking. The claws look pretty good though.
  21. I find it hilarious that Ekimu's shield uses an ornate wheel piece that was first introduced this year for the Disney princess sets.
  22. Unlike the rest of the toa, pohatu has definatly changed the most. He is still as reliable as ever, but he seems calm and practical rather than friendly and good hearted. These episodes are among the best, but i still had a few issues with them. For one, when Tahu confronted the skull spiders, he was on fire and shooting massive waves of flames. Why cant he shoot fire at loss? For that matter, the toa mostly only utilize their weapons. Bionicle gen1 had an issue with charactors forgetting their powers (particularly with the kraata and piraka), and its disapointing to see that gen2 has this same issue. As for LOSS, i don't think he is gone for good. As pohatu noted, there was a mask pedestal on the bridge. I think the mask of skull spiders is somehow responsible for these new skull villians, and loss, while not the strongest, is the leader of this years villians. After all, he can't be gone, cause we still need to get lewa skullspidered! All in all, these animations were good, but i hope we get a lot more elaboration on the first wave's events in the books.
  23. That's nice, but BZP's leak policy hasn't changed. You're not supposed to link to leaks or even discuss their content. Only one month left until New York Toy Fair, when we'll get legitimate pictures. Surely you can hold off until then. What about Nuremburg toyfair? isn't that coming sooner?
