I can understand people who don't go for the action-figury sets, they are
pretty darn untraditional for Lego, but to disregard all these fun sets • just
because they aren't all boxy?

Nothing wrong with action-man sets. I really like 8286. Not because of the
figures though...

I was referring to Throwbots/Slizer, RoboRiders, and Bionicle.  Sets like 8286
still have a traditional Technic model even if you junk the figures.  Now, are
the Throwbots/Slizer, RoboRiders, and Bionicle real Technic sets?  Of course
not.  Lego probably just stuck them in with Technic because they had gears in
them and Lego didn't want to create a new category.

(...) That's my feeling exactly. That's why I think the bionicles/slizer/etc. sub groups should be taken out of the Technic news group. - David (24 years ago, 25-Apr-01, to lugnet.technic)
