Thanks for the review! I am getting very interested in the classic pirates sets, and I wat some now. This seems like it would be a great starter.

Woah, nice army! My army is just a mess right now.

Bit of news here, A few Brickshelf Users have pointed out that the Summer sets will be called "Cerix." On another note, I have saved the new summer images to my website Here

Vorox and Gresh from Meijer.

Wow, great comic! But Strakk says on page 13, "He Don't." But isn't the guy in the shadows Fero? The Skrall said he wasn't a Skrall.

Got Gresh and Vorox today! Time to go build. Expect reviews early this week.

Loving alll of these new prelims! Can't wait to see clearer pics.

mm, not a huge fan of these. The larger trucks should fit in great with Heavy Hauler, but I just don't car for the rest of the stuff. The camper and Tow truck(smaller tow truck) are great though!

Nothin much here today, but I willl be heading off to traget to see if they have anything 2009. If they do, well, . (Oh, and a while ago I got the city sweeper impulse.)

What I got: (pics soon as well) -Ipod Touch -Tim McGraw Colonge -Brickbeard's Bounty -Loot Islan -Cannon Battle -Horse Carrier and SUV -IMPULSE City Sweeper -Two new sirts -Black Jeans -Hard Rock Shirt -New pajamas -Testors Acylic Paints -Big Game Hunter -Sculpting Tools -NFS Carbon -Pirates of the Carribean 3 -The Crossing -Personal Trainer Cooking DS

Wah, that is one awesome looking monster. Perhaps better than the castle trolls?

That;s my mom's. And it's pink.

With Christmas around the corner, I thought this would be a good topic to start. So, post pics of what You get on christmas day. As for me, I got my Christmas eve present, and look at what it was!

Well, I don't celebrate Chistmas tomorrow, as I celebrate Christmas Eve today. Anywho, I'll go ahead and post what we are doing today, and I'll make another post tomorrow explaining Christmas. Now Christmas Eve is a great day. We sit in front of the tree at night, eating cookies and having a great time. One tradition is opening 1 present on Christmas eve, but it must be a 3 oclock or later. Also, we will be going to Vince & Joes Fruit Market today, and cook up he goods!

Well It was stuck to the canister, and I took it off, but It kept coming into the pictures. I didn't feel like re-taking them

Slizers and roboriders were an interesting theme for Lego. But soon, they wanted to make a new theme, similar to the theme of slizers. They wanted it to have a solid story, and human-like characters. Thusly, they created a Biological Chronicle, Bionicle. Bionicle was either a love or hate for people. Those who like action figures or technic were attracted to this intruiging new theme. System fans were unsure about it, becuase it broke the law of the price-per-part ratio, and seemed childlike. The first sets release were six Toa, Heros of an island named Mata Nui. They were: Tahu, Kopaka, Lewa, Gali, Pohuatu, and Onua. Now I didn't pay much attention to the theme at the time. But one year for Christmas, I recieved Tahu and Lewa Mata. After building them, I was in love. Something about them just seemed right. And now, Two of my friends and I return to review one of those classic sets, toa Tahu Mata. Set Name: Toa Tahu Set Number: 8534 Pieces: 33(?) Price: Was $8.99, has gained in value. Theme: Bionicle Subtheme: Toa Mata Colors: Orange, Red(now referred to as Mata Red), Light Gray, Translucent Pink, Black. The Canister: The early Canisters were a step forward from the slizer/roborider boxes. Tahu's can shows himself, and on the back, you see a few other things relating to him. But if you revolve the outer layer of plastic, the underlayer will display the other toa. The lid is also one of my favorites. More on that later however. The Lid: One unique feature of the Mata Lids is that they look like Kini Nui. They also have a few functions besides keeping the goodies inside. Mask on: Head on side: The Contents: Here we have the parts. The red is very eye catching, and the orange is simply lovely(i'm a sucker for orange lego). A few Slizer parts can be seen here as well. Please note that the set at one time had a mini poster, but it has since been misplaced. The Instructions: You know, I miss the old instructions. They had big images, and great backrounds. What happened to them? Here is tahu's. Pretty good condition for being so old. Parts: Black parts: Nothing new here, just some technic and Slizer bits. Gray parts: Mostly gears. The head is new, and so is the eye piece. Red parts: Everything here was new at the time, except for he hand piece. Orange Parts: Here are the orange limbs. Nothing much to say. They were new at the time, except for the one to the far left. Build 1: The build begins with the gears and some axles, as well as the torso. Build 2: Now limbs start to go on him. Almost done: Okay, Now we are almost done. Tahu, you take the next and final step! Finished: Okay, he is now done. I must say, the proportions are somewhat right, and he looks pretty nice. Back: His back is admittedly a bit bare, in fact, it is a bit boring. But the gears make him look mechanical. All together: Overall: -Overall, I fell that Tahu was a real Classic for his time. He set the mood right, and the set was a great change from the Slizers. A few problems though, included the lack of moveability, which you will learn more about in my review of Lehrak. Orange was a great color on the old fire sets, and I think it was a great choice for Toa Tahu. Ratings: Color: 10/10: Awesome Price-per-part: 5/10 (Not enough for this set.) Price: 5/10 (same thing) Pieces: 7/10 (ood for the time.) Overall: 27/40 Okay, so Tahu isn't the best set ever released, but I think I might change the ratings. I think he is a bit better than a 27, but I just think he is missing something. Enjoy! And also, please feel free for any pic requests. :)

No, they have lime green, but might be the saturation

trans yello kiina head?

I have been quite bored with the flat-front trucks lately, so this is a great change for me.

Two familiar masks also check that kiina torso

Thanks for the reviews! Battle Pack: Well, I love it. Great walker, and awesome figs. Who couldn't love the black gear? Now it no longer looks like megablox. Attack Shuttle: Mmm, really don't like this one. Too unfinished looking, like the Twilight. Miney saved though.

Eti, I like your entry, but unfortunatly this is a contest for Felows, Mods, Admins, and teachers only. However you can always feel free to enter into the sideline contest, a nice compliment to this one.

For an overall price of $20.

Just wanted to ask you all, where did these come from? First one to guess right gets a cookie. Anywho they are rare and I wanted to share pics of them with you all. Sorry if we already have a topic for this sort of thing. Enjoy!

FINALLY somewone else see's the eyes and mouth on the top of a mata eyepiece, and the mata head as a Helmet. Great work. <=|The Gladiator VBBN|=>
