This works out at £21 for all 6 at Tesco, however on the 3 for 2 offer at TRU you can have all 6 for under £20. I am guessing that a price reduction at this early stage on the toa is to encourage the purchase of many mask packs. Phil in Yorkshire. (...)

I think the subject line says it all. Only confirmed at my local store in Hatfield but they usually do the same nationwide I think. Because of this deal I picked two up even though I had sworn not to get sucked in! Psi (26 years ago, 20-Mar-01, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.technic.bionicle, lugnet.loc.uk)

Try this address: (URL) that you don't need to login with a Club ID to play, only to have it save your position automatically -- that's the reason behind the "machination," it's so you can save.

Correct me if I'm mistaken, but it seems like what offends you about Bionicle is mostly with the collectible aspect. However, that aspect of Bionicle is limited to two products AFAIK -- the mask packs and the card game. Speaking as an AFOL who does (...) (26 years ago, 19-Mar-01, to lugnet.technic.bionicle)

Strange question in the subject line. Marketing is always equal to greed, no matter if it is made by Coca-Cola, Nestlé, Ford or Lego. Nobody offers you a product to make you happy.
