  1. Echoing the sentiment, I love those snowshoes! Always fun seeing the minifig weapons integrated into actual Bionicle builds, too.
  2. I know I'm replying to a two-year-old comment lol but I have to agree with this 100%. Kids today still love discovering and learning cool lore the same way we did when we were younger. I don't expect Lego to pull off a G1 again, but if G2 took its worldbuilding and lore more seriously I really do think it would've been more successful. Of course I know there are a million more factors to consider as to why G2 didn't work. Most importantly, Lego would've been competing with themselves because of Ninjago, and since that theme's still not going anywhere anytime soon I just don't think there's room for traditional Bionicle. That being said, I've wondered for the past couple years how a potential Bionicle G3 would do if it was marketed more for hobbiests, like Gundam. Yeah this is probably the millionth time someone has suggested marketing the theme to teens and adults, but I honestly could see something like that working, especially with a strong emphasis on customization like you would with Gunpla kits. I mean, I at least would gobble that up anyway. Just food for thought.

    Masks of Power

    Checking out the new Masks of Power trailer made me really nostalgic for my old BZP days. I really miss the huge community we used to have. I always say I'd like to come back into the fold, but I haven't committed yet. Bionicle has always had a special place in my heart though. Not to be dramatic but I feel like it really shaped part of who I am. After everything that's happened to me, through life and work and new relationships and long gone relationships and the discovery of my true identity, I am still a Toa warrior πŸ’™πŸ’—πŸ€πŸ’—πŸ’™
  4. Happy Birthday, BZP I used to spend so much time here back in the day, it's incredible that this sites been around for fifteen years! Here's to many more years of Bonkle fun <3
  5. Lego. Please, please, PLEASE do Tron figures. I'm begging you.
  6. Can't wait to see Kopaka kick some Skull Warrior butt Don't really care for the voices, but they're certainly not terrible. I just love the art style, it really pops.
  7. As long as your comic can still load fairly quickly. (There's nothing against splitting into multiple pages if a single image would be of excessive length.)Good, I'm definitely making an epic as well C:< I just hope I can get it done in time..
  8. This... this is beautiful. I must enter. My spriting honor depends on it.
  9. I need a Gem Fusion/Toa Kaita fanfic in my life. I NEED IT.
  10. AGREED. I'm glad we're going to (hopefully) get a little more in-depth with the lore and come to understand the origins of Okoto, the Mask Makers, and the Toa
  11. Mantis - Kazuma Jinnouchi, Halo 4 Soundtrack My favorite track from the whole game, it's just so epic.
  12. this isn't a problem in any other shooter why is it a problem in metroid? I don't really have a problem with it, but it does take you out of the immersion sometimes. Halo CE, 2, and 4 have the second-through-fourth players as Master Chief clones. Halo 3 was cool though because Player 2 was the Arbiter and players 3 and 4 were two different Elites. Heck, you don't necessarily have to have multiple Samus' either. In the expanded canon, there are other people who wield Power Armor, such as Armstrong Houston, so you can just have palette-swapped Power Armor-wearing players. Honestly, it is a small nit-pick anyway, I don't know why I got so into it XD ON ANOTHER NOTE, Halo 5 opening cinematic released last night. I can't explain the hype I have for this game (Bonkle 2015 hype levels).
  13. Just got myself Skull Basher, my first summer set and such a lovely set he is <3 The purple ribcage is such a pretty and cool piece, and his function is super fun and creative
  14. Funny thing about Samus is that I actually don't care whether she's in the game or not XD Every Metroid game to date has starred Samus, it couldn't hurt to have some fresh faces. My main issue with what I've seen so far (granted, we don't know too much about the core gameplay yet) is that the campaign just seems like a massive boss rush. Where is the adventure and exploration that basically makes Metroid, Metroid? Why even put Prime in the title? It may have the Prime aesthetic, but without the core gameplay that made the Prime series what it was, what's the point? Regarding Blast Ball and PvP; Blast Ball's totally an awesome idea! I have nothing against this mode at all! It's actually a great idea to introduce people to the game's controls. No qualms here. But I really hope they have some kind of Deathmatch PvP ala a more in-depth Hunters multiplayer. Touching again on the Prime aesthetic, it's confusing that the Prime-style Federation Troopers are back, given what Other M was thought to have retconned. The troopers' mech suits are pretty cool, though, very stylistic and bold. I'm not impressed by the graphics or the color palette, however. I know the 3DS can do better than that. Regarding Metroid in general, though, I just really, really, REALLY want a new sidescroller. It's been 11 years, Nintendo! PLEASE, just give us that X) It's funny, there are so many games out there now who's high points include "Metroid-like", You'd think Nintendo would get the clue about what their fans desperately want. $60? I... wow. I don't even.
  15. Can someone explain to me why Nintendo treats Metroid like its fans are Nintendo's estranged ex and Nintendo only shows up every once in a while to pay the bare minimum child support in the form of some sub-par Metroid game that not a single person asked for? .-.
  16. I LOVE the Bohrok Kal Kaita Ja (mouthfull) combiner. It has a really cool shape overall and the body-swinging function is awesome for violently slamming down all manner of plastic foes XD
  17. 5/5 Not my style, but it's very catchy and groovy. I like the singer's voice, too ^^ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RsQjC5zVnt8
  18. That face could not EVER possibly mean anything good :C
  19. I love the shaping you did with this ship. As far as my own experience it's a little harder getting dynamic, flowing shapes with Mega Bloks as opposed to Lego, but then again I probably have less pieces than you, my main focus is on figure collecting XD Now, I'm not familiar with this ship class, is it your own creation? If so, I would recommend adding some details onto the ship, such as some antenna arrays, those grill-textured tile pieces, etc. just to liven it up a little. Once you expand your collection, of course. The lights and turrets are a good first step in that direction, though, and I also love that little hanger door in the back! Overall, I love it though just for that great shape you've achieved with it.
  20. Incredibly relevant to my interests I am a massive TRON nerd so these drawings made me fanboy <3 Each Toa is represented very well in Legacy's sleek, cold aesthetic, and the light streaks are really cool. The only thing I would add is some texture to the Toa, especially a couple splashes of that hexagon pattern on the undersuit parts. I'm getting used to my drawing tablet too, and you've certainly got a leg-up on me when it comes to shading XD Awesome job, I'm a huge fan of these, and your backstory totally makes sense too!
  21. Pokemon Pearl Route 216 (Day). One of the only Route tracks I actually care about, it's atmospheric and chill and adventurous all at once!
  22. What’s in your forum, back at me. I have it, it’s members with an avatar of that thing they love. Look again, the avatars are now Power Rangers. Anything is possible when your forum is filled with sick memes and not old memes. I’m in a Megazord. /oldspice
  23. Minecraft my buddy and I are playing it modded with BuilCraft, IC2, Minecraft Comes Alive, and a couple other random mods. My friend suffocated my wife with gravel though
  24. *Need for cool glasses intensities* Who is that guy Yeah XD its one those temporary ones that I think are made out of gauze though.
  25. Medic cosplaying as the 4th Doctor (dat scarf)?
