Lego hero factory villain MOC: Core Ripper

Here's my Lego Hero Factory MOC, Core Ripper! Here are 2 pictures of him.


Front view

Back view(Ooh, new back armour! :P)



Name: Core Ripper
Weapons: (Hero) Unknown, possibly a blade he uses in the villain form(villain) Blade, unconsciousness gun, saw blade shield
Colours: Dark red/maroon, red, dark pearl grey/gunmetal grey and black
Personality: Not much is known of Core Ripper's personality when he was a hero, but it was known that he was a very loyal hero to his team. After becoming a villain, he is a vicious, cunning and strong villain. He'll do anything to accomplish his task and destroys anyone that gets in his way.
Affiliation: None
Status: Alive, still out on the loose
Quote:
"I must destroy Surge to avenge Core Hunter!"
Background: Like most heroes, he was built in the hero assembly tower.
Not much is known about his history of being a hero or his mission logs, but he was known for being loyal to the Hero Factory, and he had a best friend-Core Hunter. Core Hunter, who was formerly a hero, was best friends with him, however, due to a glitch Core Hunter had, he left the Hero Factory. Core Ripper, liking Core Hunter, had betrayed Hero Factory as well to follow his friend's footsteps, which gave a huge surprise to them because he had been so loyal and all of the sudden, he betrayed them. After the betrayal, Core Ripper helped Core Hunter collect hero cores after Core Hunter had obsession with collecting hero cores. Although, that did not last very long, as they were separated because Core Hunter got captured by Zack Quickfire. When the breakout happened, Core Hunter escaped, like other villains, and found out about The Doom Box. He told Core Ripper to stay in Makuhero City to guard his small little base while he goes to find the pieces of The Doom Box to destroy Hero Factory. Although not very pleased as he wanted to stay with Core Hunter, he still let him go and find what he needs to. Who would have known that the thing that he wanted was used against himself? Core Ripper was upset and angry upon Core Hunter's death which was caused by Surge, and vowed to destroy Surge to avenge Core Hunter. He wreaked the normal kind of destruction that almost every villain did, but it was only to catch Hero Factory's attention and to get Surge out so that he can rip his hero core off his chest. Unfortunately for him, he hasn't been able to force the hero he really wants out, and perhaps he has to post up some fake missions to drive out all heroes except Surge...
That's it for now and I hoped you like this MOC!

Lego mecha MOC: B8009

Here's my Lego power suit MOC! Here are 3 pictures of it.

Front view

Back view

Power suit w/ minifigure out of it

I was actually inspired to build this MOC after seeing this kickstarter project and I have to say, the kickstater project looks nice! Anyway, onto the MOC. Now, I can tell you this is NOT my usual building style, but for some reason I went with this today. Usually I would put the studs showing at the front but instead, it is at the back, that's why you see the bottom of the Lego bricks facing towards you on the power suit and the reason for that is so that I can use the holes on the bottom of the minifigure's feet to stick onto the studs.   I could have made some custom Lego power suit arms and legs myself, but I was lazy to, so I used some Hero Factory parts. Then, I built some relatively simple feet to go along with it. Next, what's a power suit without a weapon? That's why I added a blaster on the lower right arm! The other lower arm is a very armoured arm with a fist. After the basic thing was finished, however, I had some problems that I managed to fix and they are:
1. The waist kept dropping off the upper body. I fixed that by using Lego technic bricks to support it(although it made me have to modify it a bit).
2. The part which connects the fist's fingers keeps dropping off. I fixed it by using some sideways building bricks(I love 'em!) and placed a roof tile onto the sideways building bricks.
By the way, my examinations are over!!! :D I'll be back to my normal posting times(post everyday, skip a day or 2 sometimes)! Haven't came up with a story though.That's it for now and I hoped you like this MOC!

Lego Legends of chima chi waterfall Speedorz card holder MOCs

Here's my Lego Legends of chima chi waterfall Speedorz card holder MOC! Here are 2 pictures of them.

Version 1(You must be wondering what are those blocks doing there. Actually, I'm working on Lego tetris stop motion which is going to be in a soft toys talking exclusive and I'm currently using this for that stop motion)

Version 2
I build this for the purpose of, well, holding speedorz cards of course as stated in the tittle! I actually made this and the Ninjago cards holder because of a very bad incident that happened perhaps last year or 2 years ago. I actually lost my original Kai's cards(but retrieved them eventually) but one of them seems to have been cut by my sister with a scissors! So I decided to make a place to hold my spinner cards. Now, Lego Legends of chima came. After buying Equila's speedorz, I gotten 5 cards and I built my first version for a chima card holder. I made it like it was a chi waterfall. However, because that was in use for my stop motion, I had to find somewhere else to properly place my cards, lest the same bad incident happens again. So there came version 2. I think the originally temporary card holder is going to become permanent because I like version 2 better than version 1. Anyway, that's it for now!

Cards from Eris

Cards from Rawzom

Main play piece: That looks nice for a speedorz game! Also, this is a 3 in 1 game! :D (10/10)
Speedorz: Well detailed, I guess. From the speedorz printing on Rawzom's speedorz, it looks like as if it was made from a whole bunch of junk! (10/10)
Minifigures: Great printing, as always, but I'm definitely not a big fan of Eris. (Just that I don't like female minifigures in fighting themes overall.) (9/10)
Total: 29/30
By the way, I'm so sorry for not posting for nearly a week but that is because I was studying for my exams and I seriously didn't know what to post! Anyway, that's it for now and I hoped you like this review!

Lego MOC: Super hero pumpkin

Here's my Lego MOC, the super hero pumpkin! Here's a picture of it.



After seeing a Lego creator video called 'LEGO building tips for Halloween', I felt that my previous Lego pumpkin wasn't good enough. So, I, of course, decided to make another pumpkin! It does look a little more realistic because of the triangular shape for the eyes, a slightly angled mouth and there's finally a nose on the pumpkin!But for some reason, it still looks a little squarish and not like the real pumpkin, but after all, this IS a Lego pumpkin, right? Also, I gave the pumpkin some red really because I didn't have much orange bricks left so I decided to use the red bricks and it created a 'mask' for it so I decided to call it a super hero pumpkin!
That's it for now and I hoped you liked this MOC!

Lego Hero Factory MOC: Prototype model 5.6(Jordan Ice)

Here's my Lego Hero Factory MOC, Prototype model 5.6 AKA Jordan Ice! Here's a picture of him.


Jordan Ice w/ wings folded in
Jordan Ice w/ wings folded out(I love him the most in this pose. I mean, it just looks great![Bionicle Toa Mahri Hahli's pose anyone?])

Here's his profile.
Name: (name given to him by Hero Factory) Prototype model 5.6 (What he prefers to be called) Jordan Ice
Form: 5.6(Well, duh. He's the prototype model of form 5.6!)
Weapons: Dual bladed ice sword and ice riffle
Affiliation: Hero Factory
Status: Alive, active
Location: Makuhero City
Personality: He is a serious hero who does the job alone and does not want anyone's help. He is also loyal but very unsociable.
Background: Jordan Ice is a new hero model designed by Hero Factory workers and heroes alike designing hero models which can improve their performance in missions, such as spying, capturing villains, saving citizens etc. He is a prototype model of the form which is going to be called 5.6, based a little bit upon the Brain Attack models. This new hero model features wings that can be used to fly in great speeds to do rescue missions or chase a villain that needs to be put behind bars! This hero model also uses some unusual armour on its legs and the body. The claws which were in the Brain Attack hero model was surrounding the hero core, but now it is backwards, although when someone tries to attack its hero core, a energy shield will come out protecting the hero core. Ice came out of the assembly tower not long ago, and he was named 'Prototype model 5.6' because he is a prototype of that model. Hero Factory wanted to make sure that this model would not cause glitches that might cause harm to Hero Factory for future heroes or upgrading older heroes. Ice, however, did not want to always be called 'Prototype Model 5.6' by other heroes because it sounds weird since it's different from most heroes' names. Because of the element given to him and his fancy of the letter 'J', he gave himself the name of Jordan Ice. He accomplished a lot of missions and probably Hero Factory would soon start using this model for other heroes!
That's it for now and I hope you liked this MOC!

Sera's Lego MOC: Rainbow Pumpkin

Here's my younger sister, Sera's Lego MOC, the Rainbow Pumpkin! Here's a picture of it.


I know, this doesn't have a proper colour scheme but please forgive her because first of all, she doesn't have as much bricks as I do. Secondly, she's a beginner at making Lego MOCs. How she started it was because I wanted to make the Pumpkin MOC I showed yesterday and she wanted one too. She started her Pumpkin MOC by using Lego Duplo bricks at first, but she didn't have enough orange bricks, so she decided to make a rainbow pumpkin with the normal Lego bricks. I did help her a bit, so I wouldn't exactly call this entirely her own creation. Maybe more like Sera and my creation. :P Anyway, that's it for now!

Lego MOC: Halloween Pumpkin

Here's my Lego MOC of a Halloween Pumpkin! Here's a picture of it.


Yeah I was a little early(or in fact, too early because Halloween is in 1 November) in making a Halloween MOC but still, I want to share this with you! The inspiration started off with the 'Brick a Pumpkin!' competition made by Lego. Since I had no pumpkins(and my family doesn't celebrate Halloween anyway), I decided to make a Lego version! Since I didn't have much Orange Lego bricks, I made the inside hollow which also makes it very light. Also, I did this just for fun so right after this post gets published, I will be disassembling it very soon. That's it for now!

Custom foam sheet Iphone 3G case update!

Here's an update on my custom foam sheet Iphone 3 case! Here's  a picture of it.




What you see here is a watermelon getting sliced by lightning. You would be like 'WHAT?! Why would a fruit be getting sliced by lightning?!' Well, to answer your question, that lightning bolt is supposed to be the elite blade in Fruit Ninja, called 'Lightning bolt'. After all of my perseverance and hard work, I finally gotten 10 000 starfruit to buy it! So now I am celebrating by drawing that and pasting it onto the transparent part which covers the front of the phone. That's it for now!

Custom foam sheet Iphone 3G case

Here's my custom foam sheet Iphone 3 case! Here are 2 pictures of it.


Front

Back(With Lego brick and Rubik's cube design!)



Yeah I know my Iphone is in it but anyway, yipee! I finally completed this case! Actually I had done most of the things needed on the phone case long time ago but I just couldn't find a way to get the foam to stick together to form the case shape that I needed for my phone. Finally, at Value Dollar shop, my mother and I found a tape called cloth tape. It was sticky enough to actually stick the foam together! So I finally got the case done and did some adjustments to make it fit perfectly. I'm so happy that I finally got a phone case that has my 2 favourite colours! :D
Dimensions of case:
Length: 11.9cm
Width: 6.2cm
Height: 1.6cm
By the way, for the decorations at the back, first, I drew the decoration on white paper, then, I put on some packing tape/scotch tape/transparent sticky tape onto the decoration to prevent its colours from getting chipped off and to make it waterproof. After that, I cut it out and pasted it with the cloth tape! I did this because I needed to differentiate my phone and my sister's phone because our phone covers are very similar and I thought the phone cover was very plain. Yeah, I did a phone cover for my sister because she wanted me to and hers is not an Iphone. It's the phone that I use to take pictures of my stuff. That's it for now and I hoped you like this post!

A day in the Lego yellow cross restaurant stop motion+ an announcement

Here's a day in the Lego Yellow Cross Restaurant brickfilm!





Plot:
A usual day in the yellow cross restaurant, however, the yellow cross restaurant owner keeps getting knocked down by the door and something bad happens later on. Will this be one of his worst days ever?
Also, the announcement is that I will shut down the stop motion series tittled 'the chronicles of Pyrax' because I cannot stand keeping my MOCs for a long time. (Or at least the Hero Factory ones.) I hope you enjoyed the stop motion!(By the way I did add in a part from my sound effects test.)

Lego ninjago minifigure MOC: Jacob

Here's my Lego ninjago minifigure MOC, Jacob! Here's a picture of him.






Element: Earth
Weapon: 2 golden swords
Vehicle: None
Background: Like Zane, Jacob is a robot who is a ninja, or 'nindroid'. No one knows who created him, except for himself and Aaron since they were made by the same creator. They were best friends and they helped to save Ninjago from some villains. They will never take off their hood in front of people they don't know. Being robots, they have great intelligence and like Zane, Jacob and Aaron is also able to make their own weapons disappear and appear at will. Jacob and Aaron both have the ability to set up a delayed elemental attack and to disappear from a place and appear at another place close to where he disappeared. When Jacob and Aaron gets stabbed, they have a reaction of the element opposite of them. For example, Jacob electrifies the person who stabs him when his element is earth.

Lego creator set review: Power Mech

Here's my Lego creator set review, the power mech! I got this as my children's day present and this was bought at Metro yesterday. Here's a picture of it.



Figure: Great figure overall! It look good and has a fair amount of articulation. I couldn't have made the head any better myself(I'm really bad at making heads for my mech MOCs.)! However, there is still some cons.
1. The leg cannot turn in!
2. The leg cannot move inwards!
3. The feet cannot articulate all around.
4. The robot's head cannot look up or down.
(8/10)
Colour scheme: EXACTLY the reason why I bought this set. It's not that I love the colour scheme, it is because I don't have a lot of green Lego bricks and I thought this set can help to increase my green Lego bricks collection(My Lego hero factory pieces is opposite. I have a lot of green Lego pieces for Hero Factory). (10/10)
Pieces: They are great! More transparent plates, new Lego green plates and more! (10/10)
Total: 28/30
By the way, the reason why the robot's right leg's connection to the body has the grey piece instead of the black piece because I connected it wrongly for the right leg. :P That's it for now and I hoped you like this review!
