Vorahk1Panrahk2 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 So is this going to be the same program that was accidently released on the Elves site a few weeks ago? And will presumably be uploaded to the site later on? Quote BZPRPG Profiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarvaxx Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Bionicle really isn't getting the advertising and quality treatment all of these series get... It's a shame really. Lego seems to only care about system sets now because of the success that was the Lego Movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aanchir Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 So is this going to be the same program that was accidently released on the Elves site a few weeks ago? And will presumably be uploaded to the site later on?Yes to the first, possibly to the second. The earlier upload was not just ahead of schedule, it was the wrong video file — the file was labeled as a trailer when it clearly wasn't, and was quickly replaced with the ACTUAL trailer. So we have no confirmation that the full episode will be posted online, at least not in all countries. But I'd say there's a good chance of it appearing online, since some of last year's Ninjago episodes appeared online even after airing on TV. Bionicle really isn't getting the advertising and quality treatment all of these series get... It's a shame really. Lego seems to only care about system sets now because of the success that was the Lego Movie.System has been their core business for years. That's nothing new. BIONICLE helped keep the company alive when their core business was failing, but that hasn't been the situation for many years. I don't think this is any measurably BETTER treatment than BIONICLE is getting, either. Just a different strategy. The BIONICLE theme's media presence for right now is primarily online, a strategy that has served it well in the past. It also was the sole focus of the LEGO Group's NYCC presence last year, has its own Facebook page, and had a detailed insert in the January LEGO Club Magazine. I think they've been treating it fairly well considering how niche the constraction category in general is. 3 Quote Latest MOC: PAIGE (Prototype Artificial Intelligence, Gynoid Expression) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toa Smoke Monster Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I might watch this if my Xfinity records it for me. I won't be able to watch it on either of its air times though.
