Gathered friends, listen again to our legend, of the Bionicle

Or not.

Well guys, not even two years and it's dead again. No official word yet as to why, but my guess is poor marketing/story and kids these days. Who knows, make it's time for Hero Factory Gen 2.5

My guess is that these designs were Fucking garbage and no one liked them. Also Lego is overpriced as fuck nowadays.

The new ones looked like shit so I'm not surprised.

Naru · July 30, 2016, 01:21:38 PM

I cry

I was meant to spend this summer rebuilding and selling all my old ones but alas, that has not happened.

Because nobody wanted a new Bionicle, they wanted the old one back.

The new Bionicles were fucking terrible.

Awful designs, shit story.

Despair ahead.

Surprisingly, and I still don't get it, but adjusted for inflation sets these days are no more expensive than they used to be. I think the problem is that new designs are a lot more dense, so they seem like your're getting less. Don't get me wrong, a lot of times I see a set that looks way overpriced, but the math is there
