My god, I just took a look at Mask of Destiny,and I found some grave news.
Guess that bit about the bionicle movie is true, and that's the scary part.
Does anyone here think the new bionicle flick will be a massive cinematical
failure? I bet they'll launch some massive promotion by giving out bionicle
figures to each person to see the movie, casting them as 'unique collectables'
and buy them out like suckers. They did the same thing with pokemon.

Are Galidor figures even made of ABS?  They're made in China, not the usual
LEGO factories.

Who knows, but I'm not going to buy one and find out. Chinese lego? No, this
isn't right at all, I thought all LEGO components were manufactured and shipped
out of denmark. Whatever idiot came up with the idea to make these should be
shipped to china, on permanent leave, banished from lego forever.

But, if they're going to take the megablock approach to cheap production,
by use of chinese manufactures, I'm just hoping they don't take this whole
process to the rest of Lego's product line. (yeah, I know it's scary, that's
why I hate Gaildor)
