But who are you going to blame? The toy or the peole making the toy? People who
blame it on Bionicle are placing the blame on a item of plastic. How is plastic
the same as a person?
If you do not want to buy it then thats fine, nobody is saying you have to and
nobody is saying you have to like it either. But the blame should be placed
where it belongs - and that is the people making the toys, not the toys
themselves.

Funny how you call Bionicle "Bioknuckles" but when anybody says anything less
than positive about MegaWhatever you blow a gasket. You have selective respect I
just find that amusing.
But point is - who's building standards are they breaking? Bionicle is basically
Mecha in a Lego box. So are you saying that Mecha builders are also breaking
building standards?
And really, if the building standards never changed Lego would have died long
ago. The ONLY true building standard that has not changed is that one part
connects to another part.. anything more is in a constant state of flux.

Hey, thats fine - But I thought this was about Bionicle and Castle. Whatever it
is you are talking about the only thing I can suggest is to buy what gives you
pleasure. If MB brings you pleasure then more power to MB. But if you need Lego
to come out with a Castle set in order for you to make a castle then I pity you
deeply.
