How do you feel about people who try to copy your MOC designs? Or how would you feel? I hope no one ever stills my designs... And no, this is not directed towards anyone. Unless you have seen something I have not? P.S. I'm workin on somethin for those arms DV

I'm done with MOCing, and Bionicle. I seems as if I don't get better at MOCing, and I've grown out of the Bioinicle story. Everything seems just boring now... Not to mention the annoying people who think that BZP's system is corrupt. Don't worry though, I still be around to finish off my WIPs and get those MOC prizes to you. Also, as promised, I will get the winners of the contest into my story. I'll probably be gone by the end of the Summer though...

We know that Mata Nui's awakening will affect the Av-Matoran, until now we didn't know what those effects were... The effects are: Drastically reduced attack powerGreater launch distance when hitIncreased likelihood of slippingSteady increase in damage percentageFlower growth on headDizzinessUncontrollable tauntingSudden sleepinessDecreased movement speed...And so on. The Av-Matoran are in for a rude awakening... Kohaku

I am devising a story arc with canister sets for winter and summer, matoran, titans, store exclusives, web serials, Books, comics, Character profiles and a movie! If you wish to help in this, here are a list of jobs and what qualifications you need: Set Designer: Need skills in making titans or matoran because I make the canister sets. To enter, make a titan MOC or a Matoran MOC Comic Drawer: You would need to be able to draw comics as good as the phantoka ones. To enter, draw a comic cover of bitil stalking Gali Mistika Co-Writer: You would be doing character profiles so you would need to be good at devising personalities. To enter, devise a character and write a decription Voice: You must have a clear strong voice and you would be working on either the web serials or the movie. To enter, make a recording of your voice reading a script I will give you when you PM me. Good Luck S F-X

Guys, in the Official 2008 Sets Disscussion Topic, I've noticed that many people are complaining how Mutran and Vican are "clones" of Chirox and Kirop. How are they extrememly similar? The only similarities I see between Mutran and Chirox are: Same mask. Same wings. Same Toa Metru chest armor. Similar feet. The differences between the two scientists are: Different wing connection points.Different color scheme. (Duh!) Different limb designs.Different feet. (I know they are similar but technically they are different.) Different weapons.Different personalities. Mutran has claws and Chirox doesn't.Different armor pieces.Mutran has more pieces. Now the Matoran. They are so different, I'm not going to waste my time with them; the only similarity they have is in their masks. People, you can see how different the two pairs are and I recognize that they are similar but still, they're different. So stop complaining please! ~SB~

YEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSS. *Thumbs up to Greg* If Tren Krom is Cthulhu's equivalent, I wonder who mine is...? Don't say Takanuva, please... maybe Takutanuva, but he's still too good for my tastes....

In Bionicle, but it doesn't particularly belong in this category more than life. "Brotherhood" is overrated, overused, and generally just over. "Order" is also too common to be awesome. "Hand" was pure genius to use, but I don't suggest copying it too much. "Alliance" is not used in the Bionicle, but I've seen it quite a bit elsewhere. "Coalition", depending on the use, is good. "Cult" = <3, but it again depends on the word it is used to describe. "Federation" recently showed up, but it's alright still. "League" is okay to use as well, as I don't see it used too often.Signed, some Nukora Now that you're done here, take a look at the entry below. The generator has been updated to a much better look!

I was really surprised and pleased to learn that he was inspired by H.P. Lovecraft, but now EEEEEEEVERYBODY'S going to be looking him up, and EEEEEEEVERYBODY'S going to start talking about it like it's a new thing, and NOOOOOOOOOOBODY'S going to know that most of his stories are from the early twentieth century, and that my main man Cthulhu (who's name is from one of the greatest Lovecraft books, The Call of Cthuhlu is, in my eyes, is the greatest source of Lovecraft on BZP. ...Or not. But, seriously, don't prove me right....

What next? Is Le-metru going stand up on chute-tentacles and begin crushing hapless Tohunga? ~D

Here is the list of 2008 BIONICLE sets that I have and those which I plan to get next - Vamprah (x2) Gavla Antroz Radiak Chirox (x2) Kirop Pohatu Photok Kopaka Solek Tanma I plan on getting Lewa next and then Icarax. In other news I am now nearly on top of my homework so should be able to come on more and as a few of you should have seen, I've posted a very lazily made theory about the Makuta Mistika. If you have any quotes to help prove/dis-prove it, please post them here or there. Also, if anyone has noticed, my profile comments has hit over 100 due to the spammy RPG like war going on there. Keep it coming! In retrospect, those last two entries were a bit too deep for me.

I'm bringin' Cahdok back You matoran watch how I attack If that's your girl, baby watch your back Cuz you're burning up for me and that's a fact... Seran has inspired me with his plans of the Exo-Toa to finish up my dropped Cahdok...

Enjoy BIONICLE for what it is, not what it should be.

Since most people are still judging Gali's mask by the prototype from Toyfair (shown below), I thought I'd do a quick entry showing the real mask, which you can see above. Cred to Wrinkledlion for finding this. Hope this helps you judge better. (Personally, I like this a little more than the Toyfair one. The lines seem more consistent, and while I like rubber masks, it looks like it would fit in quite well as a new mask power among the Mata Kanohi, which I liked. I still see [almost] no resemblance to a Kaukau though, unfortunately.) Toyfair prototype: In other news: Keep an eye out for another entry planned for later this week, titled "Friends Can Disagree." Also, Epic 3 work is back underway, and it's shaping up eeeexcellently. I'm actually getting through it pretty fast now. I'm aiming to finish this week, though aim is sometimes off, and then focus will go towards the RPG, skeletal version finishing touches.

For all those who read FoF5 Botar has been killed by Icarax crushed by Icarax's magnetic power.Botar despite his lack of appearance in the storyline was one of my favourite characters I always saw him as the mad-Eye Moody of Bionicle so tough so powerful the consumate survivor.And now I've got an urge to at the end of the year do a tribute to everyone who's died from 2001-2008 just for the heck of it. *Yami*

Hooray! New, reenforced joints! Isn't that wonderful? No more breakages! Eheheh. Yeah. Right. Now, none of the double sockets have broken yet (at least, not to my knowledge) and all my canister sets are holding up fine. Possibly because I've had them for less time. My Matoran however are dying horrible, horrible deaths! Of my four, two have broken pieces (perhaps the other two do as well). On poor Photok, his head connector is cracked. Not quite sure how this happened, but happen it did. On Solek, two pieces are broken! An arm and a leg both suffer from cracked connector pieces! Now this manages to be less annoying than before, with pieces still managing to grip somewhat, but I would not expect a set to break so soon after buying them! No set to date has managed to break this quickly, and the intensity of play to which I subject them has significantly decreased over the years. I'm nearly 18. Getting old, see. Back in the day (did I just use that phrase?) my poor figures had to endure a lot. I managed to completely snap Lewa's arm by whacking a Tarakava over the head trying to dislodge its mask. Now THAT is the kind of play I'd expect to break something! With my current figures, I've done very little indeed except stick them in a few cool poses. I've ordered replacement parts and hope they arrive soon, but in the meantime I'm two Matoran down. Infact, I'm not sure I dare touch any of my Matoran with a cotton bud lest they snap and bend in quite horrific ways that don't bear even thinking about. Conclusion: I am annoyed. Edit: I was wrong. Three of Solek's limbs are broken.

I'm not going to claim I know Bionicle physics, but Light Toa could be amazing if they were skilled enough. Think about it:Radio wavesUV lightHarmful radiation in generalBlindingIllusions caused by a Avi-Toa sending certain light waves to the eyes of an observer.Attacks are faster than any other element's attacks.

[note: it's Valenti's (quite accidental) fault this got re-published. Not mine. That's why it and the last two were supposedly posted today.] My turn! As I've said, in general I like them. A lot. They're quite original in some respects, and overall look rather good, if still not as formidable-looking as I'd want Makuta to be, though Krika's quite something in looks. (I've decided that in my alternate-2008-universe, they'll be Makuta who rebelled when The Makuta turned evil, and as a result were stripped of many of their powers and made to serve the rest of the Brotherhood – hence the sort of scrawny looks.) And the canisters are highly awesome. No doubt my favorites in many years, because you have the contrast of bright colors and jet black, coupled with the blue-green background... Bitil :: Nice wings. A piece that's used in so many situations is always good, and the way the wings are built means they can fold up nicely, like a real beetle. I like that he uses the Matoran body, and the Vahki head is a highly innovative way to attach his head... Really, the place he needs the most work is in colors. The orange eyes are a bit too close to the yellow; red would stand out much more. And it would also work with his spikes, which look rather lonely as the only red on him. Some more of them in the small holes in his thigh-spikes would add better balance. And I think I agree with Bundalings: he could do with less silver, maybe making his leg silver yellow/black and leaving silver for wings and claws... Still. Not bad at all as he is. And it's definitely not an unwelcome surprise to have a true yellow canister set (I wouldn't have minded yellow-orange, just for some limb pieces in the color), and the result looks nice... But left to my own devices I'd still have made the summer Makuta dark orange, dark green, and light grey, so that every Makuta is darker than his/her Toa counterpart. Gorast :: I love the six-limbed look (DIGITIGRADE LEGS), but the dark grey chest simply makes no sense at all. It's rather bad design-wise, but actually convenient for me, because I have no intentions of getting any of the other grey-Inika-body-bearing sets, but I do plan to get Gorast. Cool wings, though, especially because they're transparent... say, that would have been rather cool for Bitil, translucent wings. I don't mind the Avotoran limbs, but again, I know that's an oddity of mine. Aside from limb flexibility, her completely empty back is another problem... And she, too, would be better with red eyes. Might look even better with black claws (instead of the silver ones), and of course with a black Inika body. Then she'd be an even better evil-mosquito-lady. (done with the eye-burning font colors now!) Krika :: is female. Looks feminine, and thereby is female, just like Solek. Gender issues asside, she is extraordinarily awesome. She actually looks frightening, thanks to the thin, elongated, and spiky design. The lengthy Phantoka torso is actually good on her, especially because we get a piece that fills it in akin to the Metru chest armor. And the red under the translucent white is just eerie-looking, especially with the thin look and small eyes... Only bad part of her is the fifth limb, which I shall ignore. Though it does bring me to the blasters. I just don't like them; they look cartoony and awkward to me, made even more so by the odd red and lime on the Makuta. It's quite probable that I'll be getting all three of them... because I do so like them. Might do an entry on the Toa and vehicles... for the moment all I'll say on them is that I love the new visor in ice blue. I must have one. But not so much as to make me get a vehicle. ~ ToM

It's a friggin' plastic toy, if doesn't matter if it "fails" because it doesn't meet your "supreme" expectations, it doesn't matter to the Universe.... Just deal with it. Keep on complaining about them and work at... Kroger’s or something. That's why I buy them with no complaints, because it doesn't matter if I don't like them, but I obtain joy (yes, obtain joy) when I get a new one.... "Oh, they're not good, whine, whine, whine, Lego's failed me, whine, whine, whine, and they should be ashamed of themselves!" C'mon... people either flame you because they disagree, and... just agree if they agree. ...And that's it. To keep your opinion loud and clear, you just do it again.... Ugh... I'm not having an "aaargh, nothing matters to the outcome of the Universe!" thing, I've always been like this. ...Because it's true. I may delete this entry in the morning... I can't really think… I'm very sleepy. I may regret this in the mornin'....

Here we go again... ToyFair's come around, real pictures have been produced (I saw the leaked ones earlier), and in some respects I was pleased, in others disappointed. Mainly, the leaked picture of Gali made her look fairly cool (though not Gali-like), but in reality she has the annoying reversed Piraka chest and her mask looks, in the words of Janus and Toro, perfect for a Dark Hunter but dreadful for Gali. The leaked pictures also showed Tahu being quite distinctly normal red, but no, he can't even have that... Anyway, I'll go into everything in a later entry, once pictures emerge from more angles – preferably from the public exposition, because the preview night always has awkward poses and still has the prototype plastics, and often missing pieces as well. This entry is to show a general design for how I'd do Gali Mistika – it's not final, since I may decide to incorporate a few other features from the set (I want to see her back armor), but the overall shape won't change: If you can't read my messy handwriting (few people can), some of the annotations are: – A mask similar to Tanma's, but with a visor. – Inika-length arms (using the 7-long double-sockets) to reflect the long arms she had as a Toa Nuva. – For her tool, I thought a spear might work well; it would be reasonably similar to her axes... Then this evolved into a blade made from two pieces (both the same mold, though), which the shaft-axle would go through, so I could stick a lightsaber blade at the end of it. – ...and her cartoony-looking blaster-thing is the most likely part of her to be further adorned. She would, of course, use the same Nuva armor as the Phantoka had. I've come up with a working redesign of it, but haven't yet been able to properly draw it – I'll post that some time later, too. What say you? ~ ToM

:Contest: Don't forget, the Mini MOC contest ends tomorrow! You have till 12:00 at night (Eastern time) to get those entries in. I'm really seeing some good entries, so KUTGW! :BBC: Ah, my entry is coming along nicely! It will be very diffrent from most of my old creations, so expect the unexpected! I'm really waiting to see some good entries... none that are better than mine hopefully... I only have one figure... maybe I should add another... Also, thanks to Ca'gerrin for showing me that I need to work harder on my MOC!

I just finished reading the latest comic. And the Newva are recognizable, due to their personalities. And yet the sets are so horridly non-resemblant. I see nothing but "generic Toa that we've had since 2006".
