ALS Ice Bucket Challenge has travelled to Aceswan Blog! #Legoedition

The ALS Ice Bucket challenge is now circulating so fast on the internet that I can't help it but do one on my SOFT TOYS!!!! :P Well obviously I didn't use real ice water or my soft toys will be totally soaked in the video(and even worse, I might have to leave my soft toys to dry in the balcony! O_o), so thus the LEGO EDITION!!!!!! Basically I just took whatever small enough transparent blue to white parts to dump into that bucket which was lying around the house and then, I pour it on the soft toys! :P Here is a video of Elder Sister Penguin doing the Ice Bucket Challenge.





Short story for the reason why Elder Sister Penguin did the Ice Bucket Challenge(IBC): On soft toy book, Elder Sister Penguin is friends with Duckie who eventually got nominated to to the IBC. When Duckie posted the video of him doing the challenge on soft toy book, Elder Sister Penguin was one of the nominees nominated by Duckie, along with Harmony Bear and some of his other friends. Elder sister penguin accepts the challenge and does it in this video.
Now for the video where Elder Sister Penguin catches Baby Duckie and nominates him by pouring the bucket of Lego Ice Water on him!




Short story for this video: After Elder Sister Penguin did the Ice Bucket Challenge, she did not nominate anyone to do the challenge on soft toy book, but she chose to do a surprise one on whichever soft toy that happens to come to her ice water bucket. So, Baby Duckie was walking and was wondering what was in the bucket, so he jumped in, but then he couldn't get out, so Elder Sister Penguin ended up flipping the bucket over, pouring the water all over Baby Duckie.
That's it for now and I hoped you liked these videos!

Lego Hero Factory Breakout MOC: Stormer(Based on the 1.0 version of him)

Here's my Lego Hero Factory(HF) Breakout MOC, Stormer! (HF Breakout is like a theme from 2 years ago but whatever) Here are 4 pictures of him.

Basically, like what JANGBRiCKS did for his Stringer and Bulk breakout version MOCs, my Stormer MOC is based on his 1.0 version and basically like he just got an upgrade from 1.0 directly to breakout form. This time, my MOC was made in the Lego Digital Designer program because I didn't have enough parts to make this in real life, but making this digitally does give some limitations to how you can attach Lego parts(like how I would usually attach the 3 long armour pieces on the shoulders in real life without the 3 long beam with ball joint in the middle piece, I have to put that in LDD in order to put the body armour properly). Because of that, it also causes a big gap when the arms are moved away from the sides, and thus, looks very ugly from the side view. But usually, you won't look at it from the side, will you? Also, the knee design was based on JANGBRiCKS's Stringer v.4 MOC and I did that because I wanted to give him the blue knees like he had originally in the 1.0 form. I tried the best as I could to replicate his 1.0 weapon onto this version of him, but this is what I could come up with. I included the hook, the ice shooting part and the saw, but the H thingy on his weapon was excluded because I don't know how I should put it so that it would look like his 1.0 weapon. The spikes on the 3 long armour pieces on his shoulders were meant to represent the spikes near the shoulders on his original torso armour.  Anyway, that's it for now and I hope you liked this MOC!
