For the 72nd BBC contest. I didn't get to spend as much time on this as I would have liked, been quite busy. This is probably the fifth or sixth thing I tried to build for this contest. Building Star Wars in Bionicle is quite hard! Also the stand is ugly. :C Djordje mentioned on Flickr that there looks like a lot of system in this, so I went and checked, the droid is about 70% and 30% in terms of Bionicle and Technic to system, the STAP is 80% and 20%, and the stand is 65% and 35%, so I hope everything is fine with that. http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Single_Trooper_Aerial_Platform/Legends

Well, for starters, I decided to suck it up and go to an 11 PM showing of Star Wars on Thursday. It was an excellent decision and if you have not yet seen the movie I highly recommend you do so. There’s basically nothing else I can say about it, because I’d rather have friends than spoil it. Also, it was announced that Steven Universe is going to be back on January 4th! Not just that, but it’s going to be a full-fledged Steven Bomb, and the brief descriptions we’ve been given for the episodes are sounding pretty interesting already! Oh, and then there’s this event going on in Japan right now, Jump Festa or something, and I guess Square Enix is there and released a new trailer for Kingdom Hearts II.8 and III. Wait…actually, that’s kind of a big deal!! -The II.8 part of the trailer starts with some footage from (what I assume to be) the introduction of 0.2, showing Yen Sid explaining the situation to Mickey, Riku, and Kairi and saying they must find Aqua, Ventus, and Terra. Mickey then confirms he met Aqua in the Realm of Darkness, and…that’s that part. Then they do a bit for Back Cover—basically the same as last time, it flashes a few shots of the Awakening platform with the Union emblems and the Foretellers are speaking about how there’s a traitor. And then of course there’s some shots of KH3D HD. -After that, we get a bit of KHIII gameplay footage! Seems to be set in Rapunzel’s world if I’m not mistaken, it reuses a few old scenes of Sora fighting dandelion Heartless before showing him fighting a group of the new Nobody breed we’ve been hearing about! We don’t get a close-up, but it’s still super-obvious they were under Marluxia’s command. There’s also footage with the Buzz Lightyear Blaster Attraction Flow. Also, it looks like Sora’s using something like a Shootlock, although when he dashes between the enemies its styled like how they’re presenting Flowmotion in KHIII, so…I dunno? And there appear to be new variations of those floating mage Heartless! The one looks a lot like the Yellow Opera but might have a new design on its cloak, and it seems to summon a ring with four sharp points along its edge. There’s also one that looks to have a pinkish red cloak, and it also creates rings, though its look a lot like Axel’s chakrams for some reason. Not sure if there’s a reason for this, but it’ll be interesting to see. I sure hope the rest of my weekend is this good. (Oh, and I should probably mention that Cartoon Network is airing the new Pokémon movie tomorrow if that’s something you’re interested in.)

If you want to discuss The Force Awakens, please be mindful of others. Put WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD at the top of your post and wrap your spoilers in seventeen sets of spoiler tags. This is one of the most anticipated films of all time (quite possibly the most anticipated), and not everyone will have the chance to see it this weekend. Please don't ruin this once-in-a-lifetime experience for other people. Even quasi-ambiguous statements like "Wow, plot twist!" or "Hmm, the acting was sub-par," are spoilers after a fashion. Just wrap your sentiments in spoiler tags to be safe, even if you think they're harmless. It sounds like common sense, but some people will get excited and forget; others might just think it's funny to trick people into reading spoilers. It's really not. Some of us have work/exams/etc. and won't get to see it for a couple days at least. Please be respectful and help us avoid spoilers! We can all discuss it together in a couple weeks, but until then let's help each other out. Thanks fam.

Who is your least favorite Star Wars character from the movies and/or books, and why is he or she your least favorite? *braces self for a lot of answers being Jar Jar Binks*

"Most impressive is the AT-RT, yes?" -Yoda No deeplink, because I couldn't get the filesize below 100KB whilst still keeping the picture at a respectable quality. Anyway. As you may have guessed, this is for BBC 72. I was kind of stumped for ideas, having decided against doing any actual characters early on, then having rejected the possibility of doing lightsabers because I couldn't be bothered to Bricklink all the coloured pieces I'd need for the blades since Christmas is coming up and I still need to buy the overwhelming majority of my presents. (Oops) Then I came up with the idea of building an AT-ST. Again, I quickly decided against that as I couldn't be bothered to build the entire cockpit- which is where the AT-RT came in. As a light walker, I knew it would be easy to build. Plus, I couldn't help but see the resemblance between the plate on the front and this piece. Comment, criticise, and may the Force be with you, always. Gallery

Presenting my entry for BBC 72, a (discoloured) Droideka. -- Action Pose -- Front View -- Side On -- Back Angle -- Close Up -- Obviously I lacked the parts to create it with colours that were true to the real thing, but I did my best to capture the look of the destroyer droid with what parts I had at hand, while maintaining a coherent colourscheme. Unfortunately, it can't curl up into a ball and roll around.

When nine hundred parts you reach, look as good you will not. Gallery when public.

With The Force Awakens coming out in a couple weeks, I thought it would be interesting to ask some Star Wars related questions this time around. And those questions are: What is your all-time favorite Star Wars movie, and why is it your favorite?

Nothing will stand in our way. I shall finish what you started. Entry Pic Closeup Action pose With Vader's helmet Lightsaber (Well, Chi-saber)duel! Kylo Ren's true Identity!(Kind of...) Figured I'd make Kylo Ren seeing as 1: I only have The Darth Vader constraction set, and thus only a Red Lightsaber blade, and 2: I thought the Noble Huna looked a bit like Kylo Ren's mask. The Cape and hood are made of both Vader's cape for the main cape and Sir Fangar's Cape for the hood. Also, if Kylo Ren (AKA Miras) Is reading this, I hope I captured your likeness well. As for everyone else, I hope you enjoy my rendition of the Main Bad guy for the Force awakens. Comments and Criticism are welcome, as usual. Edit: Image thumbnailed and linked to the full-sized one. Please keep posted images in BBC to 100 kB. -Wind-

Welcome to BS01's The Empire Gives Back contest. With Star Wars: The Force Awakens coming up very quickly (December 18th, 2015 in NA), we are giving out six brand new Star Wars Constraction Figures, signed by the design team behind them. (Click for Video) The first giveaway is already well underway, with Commander Cody. To enter for that, you will need a Facebook account; Hit "share" on our video linked above in the photo, and you will automatically be entered. (You will need to set the share to public, otherwise we cannot see your name. If you are unable to share publically (we understand these things happen), send a screenshot to biosector01@outlook.com confirming you shared our video. That will also count.) The deadline for Cody's giveaway is November 25th, 11:59 PM PST. Four sets will be given away in contests. The first is a Meme contest, where you submit a Star Wars-related meme to us. The meme must be original (don't just track down one online). The winner will receive Obi-Wan Kenobi. The second is a caption contest. Using this photo as a base, create an original caption that best fits the scene. The winner will receive Jango Fett. Both the meme and caption contests' deadlines are December 2nd, 11:59 PM PST. The third is a theory contest. Send us your best theory about what you think will happen in Star Wars: The Force Awakens. The winner of this contest will receive Darth Vader. The last is a photo contest. Recreate a scene from any visual Star Wars media (Movies, Clone Wars, Rebels) using Constraction style figures. This can be any set from the Star Wars line, the Bionicle line, the Hero Factory line, etc. This does also include MOCs of any parts from these sets. Both the Theory and Photo contests' deadlines are December 16th, 11:59 PM PST. All contest submissions are done via email. Send your entries to biosector01@outlook.com. Remember to include in the subject like the name of the contest. You may enter as many contests as you like, but you may only enter each contest once, and you can only win one set, so choose carefully what you enter. Be sure to hit Like on our Facebook, where you'll be informed of the final giveaway option, Luke Skywalker.

For those who didn't know, there was a new Star Wars: The Force Awakens trailer released yesterday. For those who don't want to see it, I won't spoil anything here. But I will say that Jurassic World's days as the largest grossing movie of the year are probably numbered. Man, I wish December would get here already. I want to see this so bad!
-
Dear Lego, Droids from the Star Wars universe fascinate me. Especially the obscure ones that no one remembers. No one except me. So, unless you want to lose an extremely small percent of your sales, you would be wise to release both CCBS builds and minifigures for C-3PX and I-5YQ before the decade is out. Get on it, Bonkle
-
These new SW CCBS sets are HUGE. Well, Darth Vader is, anyway. On the plus side, we finally see the longest CCBS bone make a reappearance, the first since Black Phantom, I think. Also surprised to learn that the lower leg 'add-on' is a shell, not an add-on. I guess it works for the longer bones better than the usual shells, though. Not sure what's up with the gunmetal when some of the pieces are already in the set in black. Armour pieces on the sides are a bit of an illegal connection since they hit the bohrok teeth and force them to move ever so slightly. Lightsaber's nice if a bit long. Also, obvious, the cape isn't attached that well but, eh, it's not too bad. LEGO's done worse with capes. (Furno XL I'm thinking of you.) Also, those square Breakout additions seem to work great for making a shell seem longer than it is. They don't poke out as much as the other shell add-ons so they seem more like a natural extension. And to think I originally went out to get Skull Scorpio... Skull Scorpio sucks anyway.
-
Wow, those Star Wars figures are tall. And the larger ones are really well designed. Skull Scorpio's designer, how do you defend yourself? Maybe it's just me but after seeing some of the better SW figures (pretty much every set that isn't Luke), I'm thinking that the BIONICLE set designers need to step up their game. Tahu looks gappy and awkward by comparison and IMO Tahu was one of the better bonkle sets of the first wave.

THAT LUKE HEAD ON THE FRONT PAGE IS TERRIFYING
-
...I like to collect some of the Lego sets whenever there's a downtime in-between the MCU Lego ones. Don't get me wrong, I've watched every movie (Episode III is my favorite, for some reason ), and binged-watched Clone Wars and Rebels. But the franchise just doesn't "hook" me the way that something like Marvel does. But the sets, jeez. Something about the plain 'gray' color palette most of the sets have give a sense of 'unity' that just makes them really cool, amongst other things. Speaking of which, I need to pick up a couple more ASAP.
-
They're totally going to reveal Jar-Jar as the super-rare bonus constructable figure that's valued really highly because his torso is made out of SOLID GOLD MIXED WITH PURE ANNOYANCE And while I'm doing this whole font and colour thing in my blog.. This Colour With Trebuchet MS (Unbolded) or This Colour With Courier New (Unbolded) I feel that the dark green with Trebuchet MS is much easier on the eyes and thus easier to read than the red-orange Courier New, especially when neither are bold. I may be biased since #1a6134 is my favourite colour. I also feel that the green is more... calming?... than the orange, which kind of seems to be... aggressive?... can colours inspire feeling? I know I'd much rather read a paragraph of #1a6134 than #cc3300. Speaking of typing... Why do you type in whatever font-colour combination you type in?
