I had a conversation with the owner of a Learning Express
(http://www.learningexpress.com) toy store this past Monday where the
subject of Bionicle came up. She mentioned to me that she had just found
out that Bioncle sets were now on what she termed "allocation". She was
pretty unhappy about this as she didn't expect to get much of her order.
She told that she can't keep them on the shelves and was counting on them to
be a big seller for Christmas.
