You could always give the comics to a neighbourhood kid.

(Are there many adults who "get" Bionicle?  I sure don't...)

I don't 'get' it, but then it's not aimed at me.  I see kids who do get it and
do love it and if it's helped sales over the last couple years, then I'm all for
it.  Keeping the company financially healthy just means more sets from other
themes can continue to be released.

However, an AFOL-oriented LEGO magazine is a fantastic idea.  Scale train
modelers have their glossy periodicals, why shouldn't we?


[ ... snipped ... ]

I don't believe (from either Jake's keynote or from the survey card I
completed several months ago) that this program is targeted at adults at
all.  In particular, almost all of the questions on the survey card were
geared towards me as a parent in reference to my children.

That's right, Mike. Sorry for any confusion left by the keynote > posting
translation.

LEGO Brick Masters is targeted to and for kids.

The LEGO Club is a free, kid-oriented program. The LEGO Brick Masters is also
kid-oriented, but will be a pay-for-more type program.

Just like the current LEGO Club, LEGO Brick Masters is meant for kids, but may
be enjoyed by some AFOLs.
