I built an Avak MOC. (actually I posted it in the blog earlier, like in December) Topic One more thing: Happy Mother's Day! Especially to those that put up with our Lego happenings! -CF

So I'm about to take the final pix of my Piraka Fusion MOC before I scrap him for pieces. Instead of just taking a couple to my liking, I want to know what you guys want to see of the Vezok and Reidak's fused form. Anything goes! (But suggestions may or may not be considered. Even seeing him/them do a hand stand would be fine. (Hey, there's an idea....)) Simply enough, tell me how to pose him and I'll take a pic. (Serious stuff included, like one staff forward and the other behind his back, or him flexing his muscels, or whatever you can think of) That's that, I hope to take some great pix of his final glorious moments. -CF

So because of BrickMaster giving out free sets with each issue, I now have two of the small Aquaraiders, and Thulox. (But I just opened them last night, long story) Anyway, these are the first double sets I have. I don't normally get doubles, but with these I decided to open them instead of trying to return them. (I'm a MOCer. I figure I'd do this eventually. Plus these have some great pieces. Especially since two AR sets is better than just the one, because of some of the single pieces and just normal pieces: Grills, back fins, the black slope plates in the front, the black chevron in the back, the minifig, the computer screen, the black 2X1 tile, the minifig...) Let's hope I don't start buying more doubles. (Or tripples like Shine did with Kalmah....) -CF

I had a great idea for my entry, and I nearly finished it...but now I've had an idea that is better. Far, far better. Better on account of large mandible-thingys, staring red eyes, and the pure awesomeness that comes from a Manta Ray. Note the capitalisation, cos rays are the most awesomest things ever. However, I'm not sure that I can pull it off. I'm not sure that I have the skills to make something large and flat...and still make it look good. I make titans, mainly...so it's a challenge. And isn't that, upon reflection, what BBC contests are about? -Seran

I was updating my "How Embarrassing!" content block and I noticed I now have one gross Bionicle sets. That's a dozen dozen. 144. CXLIV if you're into Latin. Maybe it's time to stop buying them. I've just recently gotten into trading. It's a fun way to get MOC parts without growing my overall total amount of parts. -BC

OK, I just built this, but it had some planning beforehand. I want to know what you guys think of it so I can perhaps revise him and send him in for Lego Mag's pit bad guy contest. The MOC Seriously. What do you think? I'd very much appreciate your feedback. (I might give him Pridak feet instead) Hey! What do you think of the SW look? (I'd very much appreciate your feedback.) -CF

So today WAMALUG (Washington Metro Area Lego User's Group) had an event. We were invited to the National Air And Space Museum for their Explore the Universe Day, in which we were front and center with a table full of Space (and plane) MOCs. I was up 'til midnight on Friday and building for another hour Saturday morning, MOCing space ships and getting my stuff ready. Some of it was OK, but some of it was better. I even saw a lot of people take pix of one MOC in particular (I made it quickly in the morning) which I thought was really good. I'll have pix later, at least from WAMALUG's brickshelf. Anyway, Steven, a Lego Worker/Builder, brought some Mars Mission sets, as well as a new Star Wars (a big red one from the beginning of Ep. 1). The older adult fans brought a space monorail. There were some really good MOCs there, and some of the Discovery Channel line of NASA sets. I also brought the V-Wing, Grievous's Wheel Bike, and the 1997 Roboforce Robo Raider. (And displayed Mini X-wing chased by Tie Advanced (and I added shooting lasers on)) But was was really cool was meeting BZPower Member Ouch. He's a great guy, and better yet we are both avid MOCers, so we had lots to talk about. Well, that was my Saturday. -CF
-
Hey guys, I had a bunch of unseen MOCs I wanted to get out into the world, so I postes a topic here and I would really appreciate feedback on all or just one MOC. But I really want specifics.... Thanks! Please continue my 4th year BZP anniversary celebration here -CF
-
I have now been with BZPower for over 4 years! That's right, today is my 4th year BZP anniversary! Let's see, some of my BZP history: -January four years ago: my first news I saw were pix of the Kal combos. -I came here almost everyday afterward, including every day to see the next Rahkshi pic. -On April 18th that year, I joined. (I won't forget the number. I was born on Jan 18th) -I made various posts and topics and became a normal member -After a little more than a year, I showed how much BZP meant to me and became Premier Now, I have grown in my Bionicle/Lego passion, met new people (just look at my list to the right!) and words cannot describe how great this is. My MOCs have become better, I have engaged in various contests, adn the experiences I have had can not be replaced. This place rocks! Well, yeah, 4 years, and here's to another good four and more! -CF

Another contest, another entry. Check it out! -BC

So I strated MOCing again. WIP #2 Yes, it is related to my Other WIP I showed off earlier. I'm trying how to put a head on this guy, and no, some of those pieces won't stay. But so far it's gone pretty well. I don't know when I'll finish him.... Oh, they are on the same Toa team. (yes, I have started to make a team) Also, I made a Pridak/Ehlek Combo. Topic here -CF

In all this news of the new Titans, Mahri, and Barakki...one question is still going unanswered (at least the last time I checked it was). Are we getting a Titan combiner this year? It's going to be hard to top Kardas, which really was a huge achievement for set design, though I would've appreciated getting instructions for the individual sets as well. But LEGO should at least make sure not to skimp on the combiners. It was the combiner models that got me into Bionicle in the first place, and seeing them slowly phased out over the years is sorta heart-wrenching. We got Irnakk last year, as well as Kardas, but what about the Toa sets? Aren't they worthy of getting a combiner model? I'm starting to think it was those combiner models that was keeping me interested in the sets each year, and the driving force behind me going out and purchasing full sets of vilians and Titans. I didn't buy all of the Piraka, even after I picked up Irnakk, and now there's just something about the Barakki that's keeping me from just running to the store right now and grabbing a full set. I'll still get the Toa...I always get the Toa. But until I see combiners start to make a comeback, I just don't think I'm that interested in picking up the Titans or full sets of villians.

My rank changed! Now i have lots and lots of Krana to collect! Hmm, seems I gain a krana for every post...no I won't spam.... -CF

Goats + Toa = Unstoppable Fighting Machine!

Well, I don't particularly like showing things before I finish them, but I heven't posted WIP's (Work in Progress) before, so here is something. I don't need to explain WIP's right? But I will say the fire is like that so he can stand for the pic oh, and my system Brickshelf folder is now public. enjoy! edit. trying this out (does it work?) Create your own visitor map! -CF
-
So I just spent a lot of time updating my Brickshelf with new MOCs and reorganization! Here is the system folder with some cool stuff (when public) I'll be posting my Bionicle stuff later so you'll have to dig for it yourself if you can't wait. -CF PS: Happy Easter!

I was looking through my archives of stuff from my old two computers, and found a single photo of this really old MOC: According to the photos, I made it in October 2005. I think it was meant to be a form of Makuta. It's something of a rarity, as 2005 was when I got cancer, so I hardly had time to make MOCs. Enjoy.

This is Karzahni? The Matoran are fine. Really. No worries there. The spiky thing looks interesting. Lots of useful blades there. Karzahni himself...oh dear. If it wasn't Karzahni, I wouldn't mind so much. But as it is, I dislike it greatly. The Karzahni I had imagined was black and gold, with a mask, standing tall and noble like Brutaka. He's not evil, merely confused. Instead, he's portrayed as a green, hunched, portly animalistic thing. There is no feature here that I like, unfortunately. Even the style doesn't work. The colour scheme, while not too bad, doesn't fit Karzahni. The head - where's his cool mask? Good use of Pridak feet, but it's not a mask. The arms aren't bad, but they aren't particularly good either. The hands - original use of Ehlek heads, but they just look bulbous and strange. The torso looks empty and the armour makes him look fat. The blades sticking out from under his arms look very odd, and are unecessary IMO. The Nuparu claw - not a good idea. Really. The feet are ok. Nothing special though. The legs are standard Titan legs with Vakama heads stuck on. And he has a squid launcher. Why? From a MOCing perspective, he's quite good. The dark green and lime pieces are especially noteworthy. However, what drove Lego to make this a Karzahni set? It looks nothing like him. Yes, he's mutated, but that's a pretty poor excuse. If it was some new character, I wouldn't mind at all. But essentially, this is what happens when you have 'sets first, story later' - the sets look nothing like the characters. I'm disappointed. -Seran

BZP has a tradition to doing certain things on the First of April. Over the years it has become expected, but I admit it's gotten me every time (except last year's note, which I'll post in a minute...) Anyway, IMO, the best prank BZP has done so far is VahkiPower. The best way to show you this is probably by linking you to Binky's brickshelf folder with screenshots of VP itself. This was fun, because I actually freaked out, which was fun, and for weeks leading up to it this mysterious "Hapori Dume" was hovering the forums, (he, BTW, has the highest post count, although he barely posted). Totally fun day, I wonder what will happen tomorrow? As promised, I have last year's prank news bulletin. (I saved it to my computer) Happy April Fool's everybody. (and if I were you I'd head over to T-Hybrid's Hybrid Haven blog. -CF
-
Just got invited to join it. Anyone else here heard of it / got invited?
-
So I guess the board was acting up a little too much, because in trying to do a "quick edit" I got this And yes, that's Binky's blog. Great guy, great blog, and I recommend it to everybody. -CF edit: In other news, I just updated my board settings for daylight savings time

So I took advantage of TRU's buy two, get one free deal, and got myself Pridak and Ehlek (the 07 fo the title) and I got a Toa Inika (hence '06, but s/he shall remain unnamed). The Barakii are awesome, and they have pieces I really needed (like Pridak's white double-joints) I can't wait to start MOCing with them, and so far I combined the two. Oh, also, I guess it's obvious I didn't win GregF's contest, so I don't see any reason to tell my guesses, but I would like to share that I guessed Hewkii would have the Mask of Gravity (it seems some of these masks are from Kal powers. Weird how some masks are also elemental powers). I think this because I have been wondering what would be up with him, being that storyline wise the stone guys are supposed to sink in water. So his mask of gravity makes up for that. I was so sure of my other answers as well! Too bad.... -CF
