Where the Hell have I been!?

Hey Guys!
I been on a bit of an Hiatus with the blog for a bit sadly since I've been busy with work and life stuff.
Also I have been working on my Youtube Channel, my Google+ page, making new custom Lego minifigs, and some new film projects too!
I've decided to make my Google+ Page the main source of Film and Animation updates while here at the Bog will update on more personal matters and opinions on various things.

Until Next Time,
Later!

BrickArms Review: Part 1

Hi there and welcome to my review of BrickArms items that I recently purchased for the first time.

BrickArms specializes in making custom accessories for LEGO® Minifigures.
Like World War 1 & 2,Sci-fi, Video Games: Guns,Helmets, and other accessories.
They have a few Medieval things too like swords.

My Order. ( :

Though if you're looking for those kinda of things there are other sites that specialize in Medieval weaponry more so then modern weaponry.
This year (Jan 2nd 2012) I made my first order from one of their resellers G.I. Brick and I had no problem ordering from them and my package came in the mail sooner then expected (Jan 5th 2012)!

Read my thoughts and see these weapons in action in the pictures after the jump!

Bad News about one of my Latest Videos

Some of you might remember that I posted a Lego Bleach animation on Youtube some time back.
Well I woke this morning to an email stating that I may have content that is owned or licensed by Sony Music Entertainment (Japan) Inc..and that no action was required on my part.
However, learning how this affected my video, I was not pleased. They took the sound off (Music from Bleach's 2nd Opening) which is what makes the video. I'm quite frustrated because people can put up AMVs (Anime Music Videos), Full fricken movies, and anything else you can imagine (even corn)! >.<
Yet I put up something like this which is a Lego animation with music from the series in which the custom minifigures are from that I worked very hard on and this is the crap I get!?

If anyone has any ideas on what I could do to save it, please let me know.
It would be totally appreciated.

Thanks for read what is (I guess) my first real rant post.

Some Tidbits from this year's ComicCon

Well last week was my birthday and the day after it was the San Diego Comic Con.
Sadly I was unable to attend (maybe someday) but there was some news from there that piqued my interest.

One of the biggest things that happened in the toys section was LEGO acquiring both Marvel and DC licenses, giving Lego the ability to make figures and sets from comics and movies with iconic characters like Batman,Superman,Wonder Woman,Iron Man, Capt. America, The Hulk, and many more! 

LEGO Superman,Batman, and Green Lantern Minifigs

I remember when LEGO first made Spiderman and Batman sets and how the figures were so cool (the sets were too most of the time) and now with so many more characters at there disposal how many more neat figures will be made. I haven't really bought any LEGO sets in a long time (except for this one) but depending on how they look (and their pricing), it's possible that I might actually try to get my hands on some LEGO set again.  Can't wait till they hit in stores next year.

  
(Via Kotaku)

On the gaming front, there was some news on a certain game that got me pretty excited to say the least. 
For those of you who don't know, Soul Calibur 4 (from 2008) is probably my favorite fighting game (even with it's flaws) to play and Namco is making a new installment to the series called: Soul Calibur 5.

Soul Calibur 4 (left) and Soul Calibur 5 (right)

As you can see above, Ivy has changed quite a bit since her appearance in Soul Calibur 4 (2008).
Her outfit this time around is less revealing yet still has what one might call "sex appeal" while now looking a bit more classier then her previous dominatrix look in my opinion. It looks a little similar to her previous outfit yet different at the same time.  Surprisingly, her new outfit actually got me pretty excited about Soul Calibur 5. Though seeing her in action in the the new trailer that was released at ComicCon  has got me pretty excited too.

I'm liking the other new characters as well like: Patrokols & Pyrrah (Children of Sophitia) and Natsu (Taki's spunky replacement).  I'm also happy to see Seigfried return, though I'm not liking his new hair style. I liked his bangs..now they pulled his hair back. -_-    But overall I'm looking forward to this new installment to the Soul Calibur series.

Also in other toy news, it looks like there's gonna be a crap load of Minimate goodness this year from what was shown that I'm looking forward to like:

Marvel Vs. Capcom 3 (I still haven't played the actual game yet ^^;)
Marvel TRU series 11 & 12
M.A.X. sets and box set
Vehicles
Halo Series 3 & 4 (just recently got some and their pretty cool)
Halo Reach Warthog sets
MODOK (now if only I had more AIM troops)

Also the Sentinel from MvC3 is something that I wish I could army build.

Wow I got some catching up to do since I still wanna get the Thor,Halo series 1 & 2, and the Capt. America minimates... 8D
 (Via Major Spoilers) (and other Toy news sites too)

Anyway that's my little news story for today.
Thanks for reading.
 So what were your thoughts about this year's San Diego Comic Con? Anything from there tickle your fancy?
Let me know in the comments below.

Later everyone.

LEGO BLEACH

Hi there!
Been awhile since I put up a Lego animation, hasn't it?
Well here's my latest animated Lego feature which combines two favorite things of mine: The anime series called BLEACH and Lego.

Since the rescue Orihime story arc is kinda similar to the Rescue Rukia story arc, I thought I would use the opening song ( D-Technolife by UVERworld ) from the second season (Rescue Rukia story arc) showing scenes from the Rescue Orihime arc.

All the characters I custom made with stickers and clay.
You can see pictures of them here:
http://mocpages.com/folder.php/127533
Also there are some cameos of some other characters of another upcoming animation of mine. Think you can spot them without pausing the video? ;D

Anyway hope you all enjoy it. :3

WIP Weekends! Lego & Minimates Edition

 Welcome to WIP (Work In Progress) Weekends!
 This time featuring my Lego & Minimates WIPs.

Lego and Minimates Together

I've been experimenting with how to make the stickers the right size for the Minimates and I think after a little playing around with my Lego sticker templates, I've gotten the size and pixels down. Though I've only printed them on regular paper because I don't want to waste sticker paper and I'm kinda low on ink. Started to mess around with Sharpies and they are really good for painting on details. Been sculpting a little too.

 Check out the Slideshow Below

What I've Been Up To

I've been a real busy bee lately but I've been working on a few projects in my spare time.
And since it's been a while since I've updated the Film part of this site I thought I'd give you all a little sneak peek and a behind the scenes look at two of my film projects.

 

Come back for more updates.
Also I still workin' on some Art too. -^^-

From the Work Bench

Hi There!
It's been a little while since I last posted anything, so...
I thought I'd show you all a preview of little Lego customs I'm working on:

Here's how they're coming out so far. Just  little more work,s
ome stickers, and sculpy and they'll be done.
Care to guess what or who they might be?
If you do, why not leave a comment below?
See ya Soon!

My Iron Man Hall of Armors

Tony Stark (aka Iron Man) as made many different armors over the years, but where does he put them all?
In his Hall of Armors of course!
Ever since the I got my Iron Man Minimates from the first movie, I began transforming what was once a C3 (kinda like Lego) Bat Cave into Iron Man's Hall of Armors.
So yeah, it was two years in the making and I pretty much finished now.
But like the Iron Man armors, I'll probably keep upgrading it from time to time.
Especially when I get more Iron Man Minimates.

 That's how it looked recently before I finished it.

Now see It finished after the jump.

Merry Christmas and Merry Brickmas!

I almost forgot to post this but my mom reminded me.
This is a little something I made with one of those thing you would put sand in, but I put in see-through bricks in it instead.

Hope you all like it.

Merry Brickmas.

Oh Brickmas Tree, Oh Brickmas Tree, How delicate are thy pieces!
Fa La La La Fa La La La Laaaa!

The 4th Day of Christmas

Hello there and Welcome to the 4th Day of Christmas.

Today I will show you another picture and a little something special like yesterday.

If you remember on the "7th Day of Christmas" I posted some pictures of how the villianious Akatsuki from the Anime/Manga series Naruto created by Masashi Kishimoto.
Well I have another one for you all.

Donations for Akatsuki


When Christmas came around this year Akatsuki was short for money.
So they decided to do this...

Have yourself a Merry LEGO Christmas...

Does that look familiar? Well it should, considering it's currently my Blogs header (look above to the top of the page). Just like us, the people of LegoLand celebrate Christmas too.


Family coming over to the house.


"Yummy! Chicken Wings!"


Making snow angels by the Nativity.


Putting up the rest of the lights.

Hope you all enjoy.

See you tomorrow!

Lego Agents: Mission 1

I started making this film sometime last year when the Lego Agents first came out with one of the sets (which is the only one I have currently) from that theme.
The Moive is centered around the one set inspired by the little comic on the front of the box.Kind of like a commercial...Sort of.

Hope you all enjoy it.

Brick Forge Review Part 2! :)

Hi there and welcome to part 2 of my review of BrickForge items.
To see Part One of my review, just scroll down.
Thank You. :)

Now moving of with the rest of my review...

Above we have (from left to right) my Roman Gladiator, Roman Soldier,Roman Legionary, and Sheep.

First, we have my Roman Gladiator who is equipped with a Bronze Gladiator Helmet,a Bronze Gladiator Mask,a pair of Bronze Vambraces (which were reviewed before, but in Sliver)and a Bronze Trident.

The Helmet and the Mask are two separate pieces which allows for great customizability, since you can switch around with the colors or you can just use the helmet by itself or vise versa. They are nice and detailed and look really great together. Though the only the complaint I have is that the helmet can pop off sometimes when the mask is on, other than that...it looks really cool!
Now for the Trident, it is detailed and will look good with your Gladiators or Atlanteans or any Warriors really.

Next, we have a Roman Soldier who has Hero Hair and uses a Gladius.

The Hero Hair is pretty nice and is detailed. Even though it might not look right on every head because it tends to cover up eyebrows and whatnot, it looks great on the right head. Also if you don't put it on all the down on the head it looks good on any head and doesn't cover up the eyebrows ans still allows movement to the head with out falling off.

The Gladius has style and detail that's sharp (literally).

Here, we have a Roman Legionary who wears a Bronze Legionary Helmet with a Red Pilum and he armed with a Bronze Roman Shield and a Bronze Commander Crest (which I'll be calling a spear for the rest of the review).

The Pilum adds detail to the already detailed Legionary Helmet (which is very cool looking).
The Roman Shield (like the Knight Shield) is smooth and looks great!
The Spear is detailed and very nice.

Oops... almost forgot the Sheep. ^^'
Lastly, the Sheep is very Lego like and will fit in with any Setup and sand out. Here is my army guy who's here to show you all the free goodies I received with my order. ^_^

He's has a Grey Hero Hair and he's armed with Brown Military Rifle.

Since I already reviewed the Hero Hair before (see my Roman Soldier above) I review the Military Rifle.

Now truth be told, I really didn't like the military rifle from seeing the pictures since it looked to big to me and it just didn't look right. Now I have one and I think it looks pretty good(especially when being held from the top), maybe a little big though it's still nice and detailed.

All in all, I gotta say that BrickForge has some very nice,detailed and all around great products. Good Customer Service, too. Highly Recommened!

When you place your order, don't forget to tell'em I sent ch'ya!

Anyway, I hope you all enjoyed reading my Review (I'm kind of new to reviewing stuff).

Leave Comments on what you think.

Thanks!

Brick Forge Review Part 1! :D

Hi there and welcome to my review of BrickForge items.

Brick Forge specializes in making custom accessories for LEGO® Minifigures.
It's run by two of the finest minifig customizers around - RedBean & Armothe.

It was a long while since I had last ordered from them and once I saw the new items they came out with after BrickWorld (I wish I could've been there), I had to get my hands on 'em.
So I placed an order with them at their new online store.
My Mom ended up buying them for me as an earily Birthday (which is in four days^-^) present.
After I ordered, it said it would take 5 to 7 days, but instead...it came in three days (that's not even counting Sunday). Awesome! :D


Above are my Holy Crusaders and my Arabic Warrior.
Starting from the Left, we have my Sliver Knight with a Sliver Military Sword
It's more detailed than your avarge Lego sword and looks pretty nice in sliver. It doesn't look bad in Dark Grey either ,as you can see my black robed crusader holding (that sword was from another order from a while back, but I wanted to add the figure to the picture so I did).
Next is my Holy Crusader, which is outfitted with a Sliver Great Helm and a pair of Sliver Vambraces (which are hard to see in this picture, sadly), he armed with a Sliver Hero Sword (I bought it a while, but It looked really cool so...) and a Sliver Knights Sheild.
The Great Helm is very detailed with a cross, eye holes , and other things. The Knights Shield is very nice and smooth and will look great with any Midevil Warrior. The Vambraces are nice and add detail to any fig, though they can restrict movement of the arms if they're not put on right.
Lastly, is the Arabic Wariorr who wears a White Turban and uses a Sliver Khopesh. The Turban is really cool and customizeable, because it's top can be taken off to switch with Arabian Helmet (which I don't have yet) or with other colors, etc. The Khopesh is very unique and a very interesting weapon.


Above are my Custom Space Troopers, which are both outfited with Space Marine Helmets,
Space Marine Visors (Gold and Sliver), and Space Marine Armors.
Doesn't that Armor look familiar?Haven't you seen it before?Doesn't look like something from a EXTREMELY popular video game? If you haven't figured it out yet, it's because it's based of the main character of the popular video game HALO, Master Cheif.
I only need three words to discribes these: Cool , Detailed , Awesome.
The sand green one isn't perfect match with LEGO® Sand Green (which Armothe said will be corrected in the future), but still looks really cool.
Even though I've never played any of the HALO games (big shock...I know, but I'm considering), I really like the Space Marines and can see myself buying more of these (after the restock) to put in my Legoverse
Stay tuned for my "Brick Forge Review Part 2" to find out what else I ended up getting and find out what I think about Brick Forge's items.
Same Place! Same Blog!
Thanks for reading! :)
