32 posts were merged into an existing topic: BIONICLE G2 Discussion Topic
Moved the entire G2 discussion to the G2 discussion topic since it was dominating the conversation in this topic. To make up for the lost posts, here's a new unpopular opinion-
If NinjaGo continues it's current trajectory of quality storytelling, regardless of quality of sets and toys the theme produces, the time will soon arrive to where it outpaces BIONICLE as the number one original LEGO IP in the eyes of the fans. Kids, TFOLs, and AFOLs alike.

For system fans, yes. But for fans who like both system and constraction, not really.

That's saying it will objectively pass but subjectively won't, at the end of the day it still will surpass.
In lifespan, yes. In story and lore, not.
Yes it might have more lore, but that doesn't make it popular, having more of something doesn't mean new fans will flock to it.

I like Bionicle's story more, but I like Ninjago's characters more. I don't really know all that much about who each Toa is as a character, a symptom of my late introduction to the theme. However, I do prefer my favorite Bionicle character to my favorite Ninjago character.

but I like Ninjago's characters more.
Yes, but having more fans does not make it better.
I was never arguing that, I was arguing that the more popular theme will have more support from a business perspective.
I still just don't really know Bionicle's characters. I mean, I know who they are, I just don't know their personalities or stories.

before this yet again turns into a massive debate
I think building primarily with HF armour is heavily undervalued... But the true potential of the system needs the proper scale. I'm not talking about Inika builds, I'm talking about two foot sculptures.
Okay, here we go. Deep breath.
I like the CCBS feet.
It would have been awesome if they came out with more titan-sized sets, mainly as collectables.
I like the CCBS feet
I think I just found my partner
Seriously, I never really understood what is bad about them.
They're definitely useful, though I tend to use them as parts of a torso or arm

I find they're especially good when you cover the gap with a 3 long beam.
But I do prefer the smaller claw feet, they're just so appealing.
LegoDavid:
I mean, I kind of do, but I still like them.
PakariNation99:
I agree with both of these.
Some are terrible but they're not all bad, the Toa masters feet piece was good.
Well, isn't that the same piece?
