It's a Tricky Thing, High School...

So I'm going to start off with wondering why I never thought to write down a chronology of my life since that's what I seem to resort to when I'm feeling down or something. It's probably because I'd find a way to turn what could effectively just be The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe into a whole series and I'm not committed enough for that, but since I really, really  need to write something and get frustrations off of my chest I'll focus on what I can safely call the core of everything wrong w

NECA Pacific Rim Figures

So my birthday was two days ago. Yay!   With that came a purchase from Amazon that included the NECA 7" Ultimate Gipsy Danger and I haven't been this excited about something arriving in the mail for a long time. This figure is fully articulated and comes with a plethora of accessories such as two plasma cannons, two chain swords, a reactor burst, and interchangeable hands. On top of all of that, it also incorporates a light feature into the chest reactor while retaining upper torso art

Halo Mega Bloks Charlie Series

So New York Toy Fair just went down this weekend, and a lot of awesome toys were revealed. From LEGO we got new BIONICLE and Technic sets (as well as a lot of other themes), and from Mega Bloks, we got Halo, Despicable Me, and Terminator. I'm really looking forward to getting the Terminator sets (because who doesn't want a tiny plastic Arnold Schwarzenegger). But I didn't come here to write about these things. I'm here to talk about... Halo Mega Bloks Charlie Series! The sum

Portuguese Dragons!

So I'm in Portugal this weekend, and whenever I visit foreign lands, I make it a goal to come home with some obscure merchandise from them. This time I'm coming home with a Portuguese dragon... The packaging The contents The Dragon So the thing behind this is that when you buy a 2 euro box of dragon-themed cookies, you get a free dragon figurine with two cards to go with a game that supplements the 5 and a half year old Nintendo DS

Playing outside with Halofigs (Caution: Heresy. Breathing masks advised)

>The following post contains great amounts of heresy in the LEGO fanbase. If you are strongly opposed to Mega Bloks, TURN BACK NOW< I've always appreciated nature and how beautiful it is. I've also always appreciated how people use it to give pictures a certain charm. So I decided to take my appreciation of the two, my inspiration, and some good ol' Mega Bloks outside to see what I could do. I started doing this in late spring 2014, where I took the only two figures I

RRU-Tube?

This was an idea that I had a little while ago that I thought would be a fun community thing to do. I was thinking we could do Minecraft and Terraria let's plays on the RRU servers, and maybe some classic LEGO game let's plays. We could also have our own podcast and other stuff. But I want to hear from you guys. Would this be good/bad and what we would do?

Last Weekend's Swim Meets (1/16-1/17)

Last weekend I went to Aviano and Vicenza for two swim meets. The first (Aviano) was a regular meet, and Vicenza's swim meet was the second (and last) pentathlon of the season. I saw improvement in both meets and I'm getting really excited for a home meet this Sunday. At Aviano, I swam the 50 Meter Freestyle, 100 Meter Freestyle, 200 Meter Freestyle, and 200 Meter Freestyle Relay. My times for the events were (in order): 28.62 seconds (3rd), 1:06.04 (4th), 2:31.19 (4th), and 1:54.44 (1st).

My (First) Tablet

Earlier this year, my dad agreed to pay half the amount of a tablet of my choice if I pay for the other half. Fast forward a few months and I'm finally getting close to paying my half for a tablet. I decided to choose the NVIDIA Shield. I could buy it now if that's all that I was getting. But since it's a gaming tablet, why not get the controller and cover to go with it? The grand total is $400 ($300 for the tablet, $60 for the controller, and $40 for the cover). My dad's paying for half of the

---Prototype Intensifies---

I got my prototype part from BZPower for sending stuff to BrickFair this year. Not as cool as a mask, but still pretty rad. (I've owned the milky white part since last year) I wonder what I'll do with it...

Review: 99703 2014 Exclusive SDCC Figure

99703 2014 Exclusive SDCC Figure Review by Phantom Terror Photo Review The Cyan Mk. VI Spartan is an exclusive Mega Bloks Halo micro-action figure (MAF) that San Diego Comic Con-goers received when they visited the Mega Bloks booth. I have heard that they were exclusive to SDCC 2014, but I've also heard that they were available at RTX 2014 as well. They don't have a fixed retail price, but I'd estimate that they are worth around $7-$10 to collectors. I bought mine for $7.50 MISB

Review: 97076 Covenant Weapons Pack

97076 Covenant Weapons Pack Review by Phantom Terror Photo Review The Covenant Weapons Pack is a small Mega Bloks Halo set that was sold in 2013 as a "booster pack" or "expansion pack" for your Halo universe. Today, I will be analyzing it and comparing its part quality and versatility to similar LEGO pieces. The Box The box isn't really anything special. It showcases the set on the front and back with the standard legal info on the bottom, back, and sides, with the Halo a

Halo Mega Bloks Bravo Series

Now that I've figured out the code technique for finding the figures that I want, I'm going to continue building my collection of the new-age figures with interchangeable armor and enhanced articulation. The Codes have just been released for Bravo Series, so I just have to wait about a month or two for them to hit the shelves and then I'll begin collecting. Thankfully, I've had plenty of time to think about which figures I'll be getting in what order. I'll also be nabbing all of the My

Halo Mega Blocks Alpha Series

There comes a time in every boy's life where he gives up his childish ways and becomes a man... Lolnope. Hello everybody, before you begin breaking down my door with pitchforks and torches screaming "KILL THE HERETIC!!1!", I've decided to complete the Halo Mega Bloks Alpha Series collection. The Alpha Series (Series 10) of collectible Halo figures is much different from the past waves. I only wanted to get the figures that I liked, but now that Mega Bloks has introduced better

MOCing Advice

I guess it's about time that I posted something worth reading (in my opinion) here. I'll start with my origin story... Once upon a time, there was a thirteen year old boy who had been collecting LEGO since he was four. He loved his sets, but never knew what to do with them except have them sit around and look pretty. In February of 2013, this boy joined the website BZPower to take part in the discussion that went on there. Upon joining, he noticed a MOC by one called Chro named Karda.

Group Story: Chapter One

Hello all, If you have time to read this, please do. It’s a story that I’m writing in conjunction with several of my friends. Much randomness should be expected to occur. The first few chapters introduce me and my friends. Everything that follows will be our mostly-made-up adventures. Includes: Morgan Freeman, Majestic Unibrows, and Hand Grenades <Terry> Terry awoke as he did every day. Get dressed, pretending to brush his teeth, and eating a hearty breakfast of cereal.

This Can't Be Happening...

So, while building a MOC this morning, several of my black V-sockets snapped in multiple ways. The plus-rod whole on the bottom snapped off from one, the socket part actually shattered off on another, and one of them just snapped in half, and I'm left like
