Technically it is improper and incorrect to pluralize the overall theme name when referring to any aspect of the franchise. As BIONICLE is a portmanteau of 'Biological Chronicle', the only way to pluralize BIONICLE is to have more than one canon story.

 

I mean, you don't look at Star Wars toys and say "look at all the Star Wars'!". ;)

 

Which is to say, it doesn't make you a bad fan, it just makes your grammar suck.

 

But I also say LEGO with an 's', so whatever. If you come to Brickfair and say 'Bionicles', we'll just make fun of you the entire time. :)

 

But, like Bfahome said, it could refer to Bionicle characters or Bionicle sets. =P

Retcons aren't cool, whether they happen in comic books, stories, television shows, or words.

I say Bionicles. I really don't care.

 

I've always thought that saying "Bionicle sets" just made them feel cold and just what they are - plastic toys. Saying "Bionicles" on the other hand gave them kinda a warm feeling, as if they were real characters. To me, it gives them a sort of life that makes me want to play with them instead of just building them and then sticking them on a shelf to collect dust.

After reading that topic, I'm pretty sure the people who call them "BIONICLE sets" just build them and leave them.

Except me. :P

Honestly, I did take a little offence there.

I myself have no problem with people saying "Bionicles" but I still say "BIONICLE sets". And I agree

that saying "BIONICLE sets" sounds a little... boxy. But I still use that term.

 

Of course, saying "Bionicles" doesn't kill the fact that somebody's been a fan since 2001. In this case Bfa.

 

There's a big point here, but as long as this doesn't start a furious war between members using different terms...

 

EDIT: Well yeah. I changed my sig to show that I support you. I'll keep saying Bionicle sets/characters, though.

Holy expletive gradients take a lot more effort than I thought. oO

As an author and critic, frankly they can be awesome if done right.
