In the main part, I'm neutral about this.

The story will go on, and it won't be bound to the sets any more, but in return there won't be any sets.

What tips the balance for me is the fact that something is changing. I was slightly concerned that the line might begin to stagnate (it it hasn't started already) but this new freedom and shift of focus will really freshen things up, so while I will miss the sets - overall I'm happy with the news.

I'm interested in the mysterious new line, but I don't think I'll be a customer of it, it depends on build, cost and mocing potential, collectors urges are now out of the equation. I might develop a lazy eye and keep that on the story of this new line but I'm not a traitor and never will be. I'll stay with Bionicle to the end!

wait...

Hopefully in a few years they'll start up again and I'll have something better to spend my food money on. For now - welcome to post-apocalyptic bzpower.
