(...) I don't exactly call 'record losses in fiscal year 2000' a profit. I'll be frank here, LEGO® has to dumb down their new sets and make them with SPUDS to turn the fast buck.

I think about 99 percent of you know this, but the zap bugs or whatever you want to call them from the Nui-Rama game on the internet are a type of Rahi called Kofo-Jaga. Onepu mentions this when you talk to him. (24 years ago, 21-Aug-01, to lugnet.technic.bionicle)
