The world is over and if this rumors proves true, I will not be buying any LEGO

its former glory.


If Bionicle is TLC's #1 selling theme, and it is, wouldn't it make sense to
replicate it somehwere else in an attempt to mirror that success?

At least they didn't make Sir Jack of Stone. Bionicle is infinitely cooler than
Jack of All Trades (no doubt swordfighting and princess stealing would come
naturally to him too, except his hair is styled wrong for it.)

Ever since they gave Tahu a sword, I bet they were dreaming this up. Lego
designers probably squared off with fencing Tahus hacking away at each other.
Teams were formed, coats of arms were painted, "bricks" were mutilated, trumpets
were sounded (if this goes on, foxes will be hunted...)

It sounded bad last night (the horror!) but life goes on and it's sure to be
somebody else's delight (think of that kid you know who has "all the bionicles"
and not these yet.)
