JayLuxray Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 (edited) Is it OK to use LEGO Hero Factory pieces for my model? As I have more of them than a do Bionicles and they have some cool pieces I would really want to add Thanks EDIT: Sorry just read the other forum comments and it is allowed Never mind Edited November 15, 2014 by JayLuxray Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Six Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 I have a question. What would be the best way to display pictures of my creation? I've seen that most users seem to link to other sites and image galleries, so is there any preferred method or could I just post the pictures in the topic?You can post your pictures in the Submission topic, but they need to be hosted somewhere. BZPower offers it members a limited amount of image hosting space in the Gallery, but a site like Brickshelf or Flickr works too. Would borrowing pieces from a friend not count as collaboration provided the friend had no input on the entry and helped in no other way?We can't control where you get your pieces from, as long as they are genuine LEGO.

Zekus720 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Hello. I am new to BZpower, however i am a big fan of bionicle and i plan to enter the contest. I just have a few questions i want to clarify. 1. "Your entry must be least 75% Constraction/Technic and a maximum of 25% System elements" exactly what does that mean? 2. can i only take 1 picture of my creation or can i make multiple pictures of my creation? Thanks for reading if you came by it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for reading if you came by it!Make sure you check out the FAQ. 1. Three-quarters of your MOC has to be made of Bionicle, Hero Factory, other constraction, or Technic pieces. 2. You can take as many pictures as you want. Only one can be your entry photo though. Quote Bio of a BZP Admin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zekus720 Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 It's been a long time since i heard of bionicle. I'm going to enter this no doubt about. I got a moc almost ready to go . I'm not the greatest when it comes to building but i feel pretty good about this moc. Be on a lookout for my creation some time later this week.

myst33ry Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 (edited) Q: Can I enter multiple villains? Is there a limit?A: You can submit multiple separate entries, but each entry can only contain one villain. Question - I have a tiny mech-robot that I just entered, but I'm entering another build, which is so big that the tiny mech will be able to fit on it's shoulder. Is it against the rules to include the tiny mech on my second entry's shoulder? I'm trying to make it like Click from The Legend Reborn. yes I know the sig is screwed up Edited November 20, 2014 by en_1gma Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Meta Knight Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Would it be alright for me to enter a villain riding a monster-thing and enter the entry name as "*insert villain name here* and *insert monster name here,*" and if so, would that cause the monster to be taken into consideration more than it would if I simply entitled it "*insert villain name here*"?

Voxumo Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 This may have been asked already, but would rather be safe than sorry.Are entries allowed to be entered up to 12pm CET december 1st, or until 11:59 PM October 30th? Because it states judging begins december 1st.. but doesn't give a specific time, where as a little above that it states the contest ends december 1st at 12pm CET. 1 Quote Banner made by Onaku BZPRPG CHARACTERS Syvra-Tivanu If you interact with one of my characters and I don't respond or acknowledge the interaction within a day, send me a PM.

Djokson Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 (edited) Would a disassembled Chima Ultrabuild figure head count as a modified part?

A flamethrower is a class of weapon as much as any weapons that Bionicles carry. It doesn't replicate any real life models. And the new Protectors have gattling guns.
