I've been in too many stores where I heard some kid point out a Bionicle set to
Mom or Dad and said "I don't have this one, yet" or "Here's a new one"...

She's currently on a kick to get all the sets with Ogel in them.  I'm partial to

Eventually they all end up in the parts bins, but for a few weeks (sometimes
longer. I'm still not allowed to take apart the Black Seas Barracuda), at least,
they sit on a shelf as sets.
