Okay so you know how Kingdom Hearts acronyms like to reference computer and internet terms right? CoM as in dot com, BBS as in bulletin board system, UX as in user experience, etc.

Well I was thinking about Land of Departure. And how it acronyms to LoD. Which, in video game terms, tends to mean "level of detail", referring to how the amount of detail on a 3D model changes depending on how far away the player/camera is from it. The further away you are from something, the less amount of detail and polygons that are rendered, because large amounts of detail are no longer necessary at that distance to create a convincing impression of an object, and it would be a waste of resources otherwise.

In relation to the Land of Departure, the first thing that comes to mind is how LoD is positioned as this isolated world between light and dark, a tiny castle on a lonely expanse of high-up mountains seemingly cut off from most things with only four people living there. A simple, minimal existence.

The second, more compelling thing that comes to mind is how LoD might very well be the last remnant of Scala, a small piece of that once large and sprawling world that has now lost much of the scope and detail it once had. Scala's history is one of a diminishing entity. A world slowly eroding like a coastline. Information and eras lost to time. Memories fuzzy around the edges. You don't need an entire society, an entire city, filled with detail and complexity if there are no longer people there to witness or make use of any of it.

What isn't necessary anymore has been removed for optimization.

Mi puoi…

…reggere la scala così evito di cadere un’altra volta?

Ma tu ci riesci a non cadere nelle tentazioni?

So I heard that Tahu from Bionicle is going to be in CMF Series 29

This can mean two things

A Bionicle CMF Series

Making Lego Figures who weren't made into Minifigs before

Now call me silly but I'm somewhat hoping for option 2, I think it'd be fun to get Minifig versions from:

Jack Stone

Galidor

Scala

Belville

And For the fun of it

Fabuland!

And to fill in more spaces maybe some updated Minifigs from older series, would Love to get Macy or Clay from Nexo Knights with their accurate hair!
