I am also sick and tired of everyone complaining of LEGO's actions. Stating
they will never buy a technic set again because "It has no studs!!!" COM'ON
PEOPLE!!! THEY ARE AS STREAMLINED AND SOLID AS EVER!!!!! The old ones were
constanly falling apart on me...
I am present a lot in the bionicle section in BZPower.com. When the new 2004
set were released featuring "Kanoka" Discs, fans went ballistic over the fact
that "They have been used 3 times!!"
Gimme a break. They were used in the Throwbots in 1998, and used again in a
McDonalds bionicle promotion in 2001! and they hate them because the are
"overused"? When there is a actual 2-year periods were they don't use them?
Since when is that being overused?
And everyone gets ticked off that they change the colors. Oh sure, I'm a
little ticked off at that too, but does THAT drive me away from lego? Nooooo.
So, Stop complaining everyone. If you want to hord all the technic, there is
always bricklink and ebay to do that. Just leave lego alone with the
complaining. If you go to Brickset.com, they are always complaining that the
"Technic sets are getting too stupid" or "Not as good as the 8459" or "2004 is a
bad year for technic" or that kind of bull.
Geez... The moronic critisism that I see...
