Once again we'll be streaming on Tuesday this coming week! Come on by the BZPower Twitch channel on January 14th starting around 7 PM Eastern (or a bit earlier) for some more LEGO City Undercover fun. We had some issues last week finding the correct levels to play, but hopefully we can fix that this time around and get back to collecting Red Bricks and the countless other things there are to do in this game!

If you were a fan of the Bionicle model that made it into the Bricklink Designer Program but didn't get past the crowdfunding round, we've got some good news for you! The designer of that set, Sokoda, recently announced that they are joining The LEGO Group as a set designer! Of course there's already a slew of talented Bionicle builders and BZPower members at the company (Brickthing, Nuju Metru, Nukaya, DeeVee, Vezok's Friend, Djokson, and probably others I'm missing) but it's always awesome to see their ranks swell a little bit more. I can't wait to see the sets and projects they turn out!

For our first stream of 2025 B6's Block Party will be live on Tuesday, January 7th! Swing by the BZPower Twitch channel for some more LEGO City Undercover action as we take down criminals, solve crimes, and collect all the collectibles. Looking for ward to seeing everyone on the 7th starting at 7 PM Eastern!

I hope everyone's new year is off to a great start! Whether you need a pick-me-up or are roaring on all cylinders, you should go enter our first raffle of 2025! One luck winner of the 2025 Member Raffle #1 will win LEGO Bionicle set 70792 Skull Slicer from Gen 2! Best of luck to all!

BZPower member CareCreations recently shared their latest MOC over in the System-Based Creations forum. Go check out Terminal Velocity to see what happens when a cyclist goes so fast that their tires start to melt. I love the lighting and the silhouette effect it makes. You can feel the speed even though nothing is moving, and the result is awesome!

This week we're kicking things off with a Block Party stream on Monday, December 30th! Come by the BZPower Twitch channel to watch us play some more LEGO City Undercover as we complete quests, find collectibles, and progress towards 100% completion. We'll see you starting at around 7 PM Eastern!

There's just a few days left to enter the 2024 Member Raffle #12 - our last of the year! One lucky member will walk away with LEGO Star Wars buildable figure 75524 Chirrut Imwe from Rogue One. Happy holidays to all and good luck to those who enter!

I hope everyone is enjoying the holiday season and some well-deserved rest and relaxation. We won't be taking a break with our streaming though, and we'll see you all on Thursday, December 26th starting around 7 PM Eastern over on the BZPower Twitch channel! We'll be continuing to play some LEGO City Undercover as we dust off the mental cobwebs and get back into the swing of things. This game has a lot to play through, so we'll be at it for a while. See you soon!

We're a bit late to the party here, but wanted to showcase another awesome MOC by Pohaturon all the same. Go check out his Galaxy Adept Lewa, inspired by Starscream from Transformers, this is an interesting take on the character imagining what he might have looked like after being transported outside the Great Spirit Robot. Let the builder know what your favorite parts are, and cross your fingers that the lime green doesn't crack!

This week B6's Block Party will be live on Thursday, December 19th as we pivot away from Indy and head back to LEGO City Undercover for the first time in over seven years! Come by the BZPower Twitch channel starting around 7 PM Eastern (but probably a little before) as we re-acclimate ourselves to the game and its unique mechanics and start down the path of 100% completion!

Recently the New Zealand Herald ran an article looking back at the 10 coolest Christmas presents of the 2000s, from Bionicle to Barbie, obviously featuring our favorite toy. Did you eagerly await Santa every year to bring you the latest heroes and villains? Were you an owner of any of the other toys on the list? Were you even alive twenty years ago? Let us know in the Talkback!
