Christina, We touched on this a while ago ((URL) but since these articles are new, we won't feed you to the Nui Rama... I particularly like the phrase from the New Zealand paper's coverage, where the Maori accuse LEGO of "cultural and linguistic (...) (25 years ago, 31-May-01, to lugnet.technic.bionicle)

(...) I'm kinda suprised by this. The US has only just started to get Bionicle and they already have Makuta's beasts? I haven't seen em anywhere in the UK,same for the card game. Glad that it's not a collectable one,I don't have the money to dish (...) (25 years ago, 31-May-01, to lugnet.technic.bionicle)

(...) Yeah, it's a cool set! I like the use of technic functions in small vehicles. There aren't that many technic functions available in the set, but it's still an interesting package. Fredrik (25 years ago, 31-May-01, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Despite being keen for Lego to keep Technic 'traditional' and basically agreeing with you, I can't let you get away with this test. Technic Universal set 8020 has a transparent windscreen and I think it was one of the best value universals (...) (25 years ago, 31-May-01, to lugnet.technic)

(...) There's a simple test, has it got a transparent windscreen, Yes!! then it can't possibly be Technic. Also Technic sets are always built in a skeletal framework style, while the UCS Tie Fighter is a solid form. I thougt we'd agreed Bionicle (...) (25 years ago, 31-May-01, to lugnet.technic)

 | | Toa vs Throwbots

Just some observations as I was putting together all the Toa I bought. The Toa are better figures in general, they stand taller, the maks make for cooler heads, and the giant weapons they have are much more impressive, but at the same time there is (...)

(...) I meant that it sucks for you that you can't get over the fact that Lego put Bionicle under the Technic name where it doesn't belong. If Bionicle weren't called Technic you'd probably shug it off and say "go have fun" to those of us who like (...) (25 years ago, 31-May-01, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Neither do I. But the Throwbots/RoboRiders/Bionicle have something the other <$10 technic sets do not - a coolness factor. Obviously not everyone has a soft spot for action figures or robotic-looking things. But I do. And three years ago when (...) (25 years ago, 31-May-01, to lugnet.technic)

OK, first off, an Outlet Store is a special store that only sells lego products, and recieves its shipments directly from Lego HQ. There are very few of them...One here in Georgia, one in Virginia...Possibly Legoland, but I make no guarantees. Now a (...) (25 years ago, 31-May-01, to lugnet.technic.bionicle)
