Hey look, a new Main Page design. A little simpler than the previous one, but more streamlined, and helps match BS01's. It's still in the process of being updated, but if you have any comments on the new digs, or suggestions for improvements, the main page talk is always open!

Merry 2013mas, everybody! Hope you all enjoyed the holidays and such. The wiki has seen an uptick in activity, which is always nice. There were some crucial things missing, but we have a lot of good stuff now. For anybody looking for some stuff to do, there's the new (and first, actually) Featured Project on the front page, and a general list of tasks I keep around for stuff that needs to be done.
The Main Page will theoretically be updated to be more like BS01's at some point; if you have any opinions on that, shout out on the Main Page talk!
Additionally, some summer 2013 photos have appeared on the internet; despite the apparently legitimate origins as such, the information and pictures are still not confirmed to be legally released, so hold off on introducing them to the wiki for now.

Christian Faber recently announced on his blogspot that he is teaming up with members of Ghost, the digital animation company responsible for many of the BIONICLE shorts and commercials, for a 22-minute Hero Factory special in 2014! What this means for the future of the line is unclear, exactly, suffice to say that there will be some Hero Factory-related content next year.
March 8, 2013
New LEGO magazines have started appearing in mailboxes. Hero Factory presence is still pretty scarce, but there's a fun page at the end detailing Furno's examination of a Brain.
March 7, 2013
The latest episode of Hero Factory, Brain Attack (marketed as a "webisode", implying a lack of small-screen release) has been uploaded to HeroFactory.com. Check it out, and get to adding info!

Some wiki-specific templates need to be made (for instance, converting Template:Need into HS01 style); feel free to use the sandbox to draw up some examples.

Maintenance
- The Main Page switches could use lists. Feel free to draw up some prototypes on the sandbox.
- Check out Special:UnusedFiles, and see if you can help those orphaned images find a home.

Von Nebula Rising
Cover of Comic 4: Von Nebula Rising, by Carlos D'Anda
|
To kick off our new Main Page, we have a character thought forgotten, but who made a triumphant (exaggeration) return as a pro (American) footballer. Once a mild-mannered professor named Aldous Witch, the Witch Doctor was transformed in a mysterious jungle temple, and now dedicates his life to fighting crime and villainy! Well, maybe not the last bit. Despite the apparent superhero terminology, Witch Doctor is, in fact, a villain, with a personal connection to Stormer (as if that narrows down things), and who's probably pretty mad at Rocka for beating him and putting him in jail. Despite that, he managed to escape during the breakout, and now has aspirations of entering the Super Bowl... if Fox Sports is to be believed. Too bad he'll have to wait until next year!
