For what i understand its in CGI format i believe, not the the Building sytle adverts from the past. Was it Bionicle Logo?

(...) The new ads are great. The ones that started airing in early Jan were for the website. The new ones are for the sets. You get some cool CGI action shots and some shots of the actual models. (24 years ago, 31-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.uk, lugnet.technic.bionicle)

(...) I sort of half agree with all of that... I think Bionicle provides some neat parts to bulid some cool looking robots. Slizers was a step in the right direction, Lego faltered somewhat with the Roboriders (there are some awful parts in those (...) (24 years ago, 1-Feb-01, to lugnet.loc.uk, lugnet.technic.bionicle)

(...) The answer is yes they probably will want to collect them all, it may be a sad fact to admit to hardened Lego fans of the past but the current generation don't see Lego in the way we do.
