How are the Rogue one builds? I kind of want to get the guy with the red armor suit, seems to have the best value.
>>
>>6088160
Baze? is he even out yet? Shore trooper looks pretty good. I'd say go with K2 or Vader if you're big into G1 since Vader has a technic chest build and K2 features a punching gimmick. Everyone else is a built up CCBS body.

>>6088160
I gave some impressions about Baze and Chirrut here
>>6084665

Baze and K2 are the only sets I'd say are almost worth 25 bucks.
Chirrut has your typical "we added 10ยข worth of clothing to the set which totally justifies a price increase of 5$" syndrome.
The Shoretrooper seems to fare even worse, given that he's pretty much the same build as the Stormtrooper but with a crappy looking plastic skirt and still costs just as much as the other sets.
Jyn is alright and worth it if you want that new chest piece.
Deathtrooper has terrible looking legs that are in no relation to the body and the usual Star Wars figure build that is becoming the new Inika build by now.
>>
>>6088181
everyone shills vader but he just looks stupid to me, must be his proportions or something. Baze/chirrut/scarif are available literally everywhere except NA

Also IMO death trooper > k2so
>>
>>6088241
well actually I mean k2so is a better build but I still have death trooper on display while k2so is in a drawer to be taken apart soon

First, it's "Moeonicle," not "fembot."

Second, there is no parts list or instructions. You pretty much have do do it on your own based on what you have. Looking at other people's work is a great way to get ideas.

Third, the rule of thumb with me was about $60 worth of Bonkle sets from the classic series. One $20 set, one $30 set, and a $10 set for greebles. Naturally, buying sets on clearance or in thrift shops always helps. HF, the Bonkle revival line and the current SW figure line have dumb down parts that could hamper your building and throw my $60 out of whack with today's inflation. Still, if you just keep in mind the price of classic sets you should have a good lot of parts to choose from.

Fourth, expect a dedicated build time of about 8~12 hours. There's alot of trail & error. Start with the feet, then the calves, thighs, torso, head, and last, arms. Keep in mind that there's alot of weight on the legs & hips, so strengthen those knees & hip joints with either double ball joints or pistons.

The smooth round shoulder parts that the Toa had in the second classic Bonkle wave are worth their weight in gold. They're perfect T&A pieces. Use them sparingly if don't have many and/or you want to make more than one Moeonicle.

That's all I can tell you right off the top of my head. I should write this stuff down as you're not the first I've told all this to. Pic related as it's my first Moeonicle I made sometime way back in 2009. I still have her built. I need to recheck her joints to make sure they haven't cracked.
>>
Does anyone have the picture from a year ago where an anon pasted the toas' faces over the heads of Mary, Joseph, and the wise men and the villager kid's face on baby Jesus?
>>
>>6088816
Not that guy, and somewhat unrelated question. But how much weight can those Bionicle joints actually hold? Do your Moeonicles ever get floppy or fall over?
>>
>>6088857

>But how much weight can those Bionicle joints actually hold?

Can't be certain, but it's not much. That's why I suggest reinforcing the load bearing joints, such as the knees & hips if you plan on keeping your Moeonicle for some time. it should also fix any floppiness problems.

Here's an old boob making tutorial I found in my Moeonicle archive. I didn't make this. Some other anon did. hope it helps.

>>6088857
It depends on the style of the joint, the age of the pieces, the color, and sometimes even the particular production run of a specific piece. In general though, you can mix&match and substitute where needed to be able to sustain a pretty large amount of weight. A great example is Nori; the tentacles add a fair amount of weight, and their length does put considerable leverage on the body as a whole. Despite that, with some creative part use, she's able to stand on one leg without sagging.

He already mentioned it. Haydee. That's the name of the game. IIRC it's on Steam and everything.
>>
>>6089088

Another thing I'm looking for is two pictures of a moc and a drawing. Back in the first six months of G2 an anon here made a dinosaur-ish moc that used Pohatu's boomerangs for jaws and had a hand at the end of it's tail holding Pohatu's "dagger". Someone commented that it looks like a protector is fighting his way out of the dinosaur's ass, and a drawfag delivered shortly after.

>>6089047

Haydee is a robot from a game of the same name. /aco/ has a regular general dedicated to her.
Somehow the feminists got smart and denied the game free publicity by not raising a stink over it. Probably a man told them not to.

I don't even know if you can really get to him. He haz a bzp account - the inbox is full and he won't respond to you if you leave a comment on his profile. I tried to reach him with questions about plastic casting.
I do remember he posted here once, I didn't know it was him at the time. He said somethimg about needing some kind of "rit" dye - a particular kind from before 2008 or 2006 - to use on trans-clear masks. Beyond that... I have no clue. I don't know how old any archives out there are of /toy/ and I don't remember when he posted... I want to say it's been a year or a year and a half. Could be between six months and a year?
If you could find that thread somehow you'd be able to find his description of the process.

>>
>>6089447

Well, I have found some promising looking dye, I'm thinking about starting a little business of dyeing masks and other parts and selling them. Modalt masks does an okay job of recoloring, but there's always this added bit of texture and detail that doesn't make it look officially LEGO -- plus I found a thread saying that the a trans purple Kaukau by flintsmith went for 55$, not that I'd charge that much but it shows there's some market for it. Would anybody be interested in that?

I'm going to start selling resin cast masks soon (op pic is mine). People keep messaging me and asking when I'm gonna be ready.

I haven't started selling yet so I don't know what the functioning demand is, but based on the fact that my most popular posts anywhere are about the masks, I'd say there's a solid healthy interest.
>>
>>6089901
Really nice job with the mask! Have you perfected your technique yet? I imagine resin is a bit unpredictable. How's the consistency of it? Are the masks "usable" meaning not floppy/squishy/sticky?

Where can I find you btw?
>>
>>6089956
socketballmasks.tumblr.com is the official blog for custom mask stuff. I go by novuscarpus for other lego community stuff, just on flickr really. I do have a bzp account by that name but I never have much of a reason to post there.

I've got it down to a science now, only real problem is that transparent resin masks take a day to make and I have to wait a bit longer than that for the resin to fully air out. The floppines issue mostly came from uzing paint meant for glass rather than actual resin dye. I'm sure there's other things I'll learn as I do this stuff more.
>>
>>6089967
plus there's learning how the material behaves that you have to design around, and that knowledge only comes with time and hands on experience.
>>
>>6089967
Really like your masks (checked you out on Brickshelf), can't wait for your store to go up man :)

Gonna buy my dyes tomorrow and probably work on some pieces too, hoping I can make a decent black nuva chest and a sand green mask

So I've been thinking about making a continuation of Bionicle with the plot splitting off right around the skirmish at the black crater, with the Toa making a Toa Seal instead of returning to the stars, among other things. I'd also make custom "waves" by making combiners of different sets, released periodically with the story. I'll probably draw comics as well once I have a drawing tablet again. Would /biog/ be interested if I posted such a thing here, or would I be better off taking it somewhere else?
>>
>>6092944
I don't think anyone would mind unless your stuff is absolutely terrible. It's not like we have anything more interesting going on at the moment.
>>
>>6092944
go it dude, you got dubs, it must mean something
>>
>>6092944
I dont remember JTO but I thought one way to continue the story would be that the toa go back to the stars and makuta breaks out after because he tricked everyone and was absorbing the toas power rather than getting shut away, and so he breaks out and everyone fucking panics because makuta is free without toa to protect them, only ekimu and the creatures/protectors to protect the matoran. story could either go with protectors defecting makuta or makuta destroying everything and the toa arrive too late into a post apocalyptic bonkle world

i dont know, that probably wouldnt be logical though

Also, maybe you could write it as a quest on quests or a site like anonkun.com
>>
>>6093893
I was hoping the Toa's weapons being sucked in would be a plot point.

Every weapon was a Crystal weapon except for Onua's six-shooter, and they were probably made of the same kind of crystals harvested from the Elemental Creatures which were used for elemental maskmaking.

Get the crystals from the blades, melt em into a mask, add one more element (Shadow), and bam. One fresh new Mask of Ultimate Power, perfect for all your inter-dimensional portal creating needs. Suddenly Makuta's busting out with a new MOUP in one hand and his old MOCo in the other.

That image is honestly one of the biggest issues:
Most people new to the system consider that basic figure to be the be all end all when it comes to CCBS, Lego included (with the occasional Dragon Bolt and Evo Walker here and there).
Meanwhile, large figures like this one are just as easy to build with it but none of the available sets really showcase thise since they don't go over 25-30 bucks.

I don't agree at all. All those sets are fairly easy to replicate with CCBS (the first one is literally Uxar, the last one just a snake, aka the easiest thing to build with CCBS pieces).

Holy shit. Where were you when G2 almost went full NGE?

How many exclusive masks there were during the run of G1 that weren't part of a set, so no stuff like movie edition Kraahkans and so on.

From the top of my head I can think of neon Miru, copper masks, infected Hau Nuva and both Vahi. I know I'm missing something, but someone please help.

This could totally be made with the parts we have now. That's clearly a Kulta mask, the body is one of the twisty torsos, etc. Someone with the parts, get on that.

These concept images hurt me though. So many great ideas that just never got to see the light of day. For what reason though?
>>
Goddamn. I feel bad for Cyberhand. His MOUP is like 90% done and he just has to make the Villager rescale but all this guys are asking him to make this G2 Vahi, this Hau, that combined Vahi, etc.

Maybe he's enjoying it but I would personally be irritated trying to complete a project and having 20 people nagging me to do other stuff before I'm even finished.
>>
>>6095168
Those, as well as chrome Hau, solid gold Hau, platinum Avohkii and everything from the mask packs, including misprints,

Most of them are more or less impossible to get.

Going through it, that's clearly not every piece of concept art.
It's missing nearly all prototype skellingtons, those pencil sketches that included things like Gali with hair, that large image of cloaked Ekimu, etc.

>>6095211
I think it was because this year Lego lowered its marketing on purpose, just as it couldn't keep up with demand.
If it wasn't for that, right now /biog/ would still be quite active.

Refusal to introduce new parts and recolors to CCBS. The need to make everything as design by comitee generic as possible for maximum risk aversion. The tiny budget given to the team resulting in small waves with no set costing more than $30

I bought Death Trooper too, sadly for fully price, we nearly never get any worth while discounts

>>6095498
same anon here, i also bough greivous and k2 for full price, im fine with k2 but i really wish I would have waited for greivous to go on sale, its 10 dollars more for 10 more pieces than k2

I hate to admit it but I seems like bonkle died Im moving over to some of the SW stuff, which is likely exactly what lego wanted/hoped for
>>
>>6095508
Kinda same here, I noticed myself putting more SW sets onto my Wanted List, most I either missed or couldn't buy because I was a little kid back when they came out.
>>
>>6095520
the only dilemma with SW is how overpriced everything is, not just the figures. Theres no official word yet but im betting the 2017 a-wing will be 50 USD/65 CAD, and it has 5 less pieces than last years eclipse fighter, which was 30/40

Im gunna invest some money into lego SW in 2017, and maybe get my first speed champions sets, since the bugatti and mercedes look really cool
>>
>>6095536
I was thinking of getting the bugatti and mercedes as well, but I mainly aim for older sets

The summoning horn and the cape were cool ideas, but they shouldn't be too hard to reproduce.
The rest? I prefer the final set, which looks a lot creepier and illustrates his nature as a shadow/wood demon/evil fairy better, over his hunting occupation which is secondary to that (though still important).

It really isn't that hard to slap a book together, come the fuck on. They already had all the images to begin with. A little grid arrainging and typesetting and you're done in a few days with content like that. It's not a herculean effort.

All these idiots think they can get a job by brown nosing or something.

Hey guys, I need 3 more bionicles to finish off my g2 collection. I found a website that has the 3 left I need for full MSRP, except the shipping is 20 dollars alone (I hate paying for shipping), can someone convince me to just pay up, because these are sold out everywhere else and I came this far and want to finish the collection
>>
>>6098600
Bricklink?
>>
>>6098606
I want new sets, and bricklink shipping would probably be even worse (and new sets likely be more than MSRP there)
>>
>>6098639
>and bricklink shipping would probably be even worse
Depends on where you buy from. Surely shipping inside of US can't be that much?

>(and new sets likely be more than MSRP there)
Not that I've checked, but the G2 Bonkle is currently right now in that price bubble where they're not old enough to be expensive sealed, but not new enough to be sold full price either.

Im in canada, cheapest LoSS is 25 dollars which is 8 over full price

cheapest PoE is 3 over msrp

and there is no listing for PoW in canada

aside from just buying individual parts, I hate bricklink, and dont even get me started on ebay resellers

also, shipping for each would be 10+ dollars anyway since separate stores and thats how much a basic parcel costs to ship

No I'm not flintsmith. I'm just an anon who wanted a Trans purple kaukau and made one.

I haven't been up to anything BTH. I'm gonna order some masks off of Shapeways and then I'm gonna pretty much be done with Bionicle.

Also, I did make a second purple kaukau and sold it to someone on BZPower, I hope he's happy with it.

And where was the love during the story bible conception? Ryder Windham confirmed that it was a mess with no clear vision and no world building.
Where wass the love in releasing sets that mostly consisted of reused parts that most people are already sick of like the HF feet? You didn't even have to design new ones since you had tons of crazy parts at your disposal like the Chima flame wings and blades or those large curved Elves horns.
Where was the love in not releasing instructions for combiner models like the Makuta or that Shadow Umarak?
One of the most interesting things were the bazillions of extra instructions in magazines for all those creatures and you dipshits go just "nope, won't release them :^) !".
Where was fucking love in cancelling your own IP while shitting out more and more overpriced, unimaginative licensed figures that clog up the store shelves?

For someone who knows little about Bionicle, what are good stories to check out? G1 or G2.
>>
>>6098868
G2 is sort of the children's version of the G1 story. It's also a helluva lot shorter.
Also, what do you prefer, comics or books?
>>
>>6098920
Prose preferably. But whichever is good.

The artbook hints at so much deeper in G2, and I'm not sure who's fault it is we don't get it (there's a bunch of reasons, I know, I don't need to go over them). I'm not sure which I prefer.
>>
>>6098930
Honestly, we like to blame so many different people, but it most likely was executive meddling. It was decided early in production it would be better to simplify the line, and have only people new to Bionicle work on the development, to keep it "fresh", so it was practically dead on arrival. A table of executives making a bunch of dumbass decisions and blaming the line itself for bad sales.

>>6098578
Skull slicer had a bit of lore as the arena champion that was brought back to life with black magic by kulta. Maybe there could've been a good side story of the protectors getting the mask of skull spiders to put on the remains of skull slicer to revive him again as himself, having him defend the the city with what is left of the skull spiders.
>>
>>6099248
I thought it was 2017 Kopaka in Shadow Realm armor.

anyone thing they cancelled bionicle g2 like too soon for it to even gain popularity with it's marketing plan?

i'm in a bunch of bionicle community groups on facebook and i can't believe how big and active they are

imo bionicle is picking up massive popularity just as the themes ending again

i've never seen the groups this big or active. I think if lego had given it more time it really could have grown.
>>
>>6099405
The thing is, nothing interesting really happened before it was cancelled. The lore was so bare bones and there was essentially no multimedia promotion that really pushed the line hard enough. The books and graphic novels should have been released at the start of 2015, not toward the end, a year after the sets have been shelfwarming. The web series also rushed the whole year of 2015 into 20 minutes of shitty narration and the app game again, did nothing for the story.
If Bionicle wasnt going to have a TV series then it should have had its story unfold in some other platform, but every one LEGO provided just fell short and arrived too late for anyone to care. Not to mention the books, webisodes, and graphic novel just told the same story 3 times over with numerous conflictions that show that there was no consistency in how the story was handled. Nothing worked and by the time the story was actually going somewhere, it was with JTO at the very end of the line's run.
>>
>>6099432
yea that's what i meant when i said "too soon to gain popularity with it's marketing plan"

it was kind of slow, long term marketing even though the line only had 3(2) years

but seriously, bionicle seems to be getting more popular despite being cancelled. really make you wonder whether things would have turned around if they hadn't been scared.
>>
>>6099248
we still have no idea, and that's also partially the role of concept art

how would this work > fully realize an idea quickly > discard or develop further

I have been in the bionicle scene but I wanted to ask, is there a way to treat for cracks in the connectors where do you get replacement parts?
>>
>>6099701
>I bought this guy for about $11 did I do good?
With all of the accoutrements like canister and instructions, that's ain't too shabby.

>is there a way to treat for cracks in the connectors where do you get replacement parts?
Aside from buying "new" or good condition sockets from Bricklink or the like, you could also treat the socket cracks with a bit of glue and not disconnect the pieces afterwards.
>>
>>6099719

Thanks for the confidence boost, do you know what the cd does, I have never had this set before

Seriously, where the fuck WAS all that shit during the line promotion?
How fucking retarded do you have to be to omit images like this from your lore-driven toyline's marketing and outside presentation while having screenshots of your Netflix series as backgrounds, tweened Toon Boom shit and images from your poorly drawn comics on your website?
And speaking of website: how about all those errors on it like Onya or Kopak.
Hell, even now Storm and Quake Beast share the same image on their button - labor of love my ass.
Don't even get me started on those "designer videos" that were nothing but those idiots waggling the figures around and promoting those stupid solid gold masks.
There was next to nothing about the actual design process in them outside some offhand "we tried to keep it in spirit of the old sets" here and there.
