Yeah, but are you trying to defend Galidor to score some moral points
or something? I mean, take a look at it compared to lego sets like
sopwith camel or the red baron plane, and ask yourself which you
would rather have.

Specifically which Galidor? There's not a Galidor set that would compare
size-wise or price-wise with a Sopwith Camel, is there? And to make a fair
comparison you'd have to use sets/figures which are recommended for similar
age ranges too.

To tell you the truth, concentrating on one specialty
product like model sets will in the end, produce more streamlined and
accurate models. (I mean, look at Guarded Inn, for instance.)

I don't think I properly understand your argument here - is it if they
produce only model sets they will produce better model sets? If it is, I'm
not sure why you included 'streamlined' in your statement.

The Guarded Inn is neither streamlined nor accurate as far as I can tell.

In fact, if my interpretation of your argument about concentrating on one
specialty product is correct, then the logical extension is not that they
should concentrate on System instead of Galidor, but that they should
concentrate on Bionicle over System.

Scary, huh?
