Hi!

First of all, I did not post this into lugnet.technic.bionicle since I
thought Technic dudes would like it better :)

I went to my local LEGO source today and they have a pretty big sale
on the Bionicle sets. Are LEGO dumping them away (silent wohoo!) or
did my store just buy more sets then they could sell?

Don't know, but I don't think it's a big surprise they have to dump
the prices to get rid of them. I am, how ever, surprised it's already
happening!

So dear Technic fans, perhaps LEGO has realized that Bionicle is not a
good line of products and perhaps, just perhaps do they invest in more
Technic LEGO instead :)

That could save my day and LEGO's economy ,)

This is not the only time I have learned about stores trying to get rid of
Bionicle's. My local TRU had a offer on them a while back. I think it was
something like buy two get one free, but there was a whole isle end full of
them for weeks.
I don't know if this is because LEGO thought 'every kid(or AFOL) will want
one' and they where making sure the shops can supply them, or they are just
not selling as well as they hoped.
