I don't really care for them.

The weapons are nice, but it feels like they are too action figurey. I guess that's what sells now.

I was disappointed when Bionicle took this direction, but I kept collecting them (or at least trying to) out of some sense of dedication to the series, but now that it's over I think I'll pass on the Hero Factory sets.

That is unless some future set really knocks my socks off, but I kind of doubt that will happen.

All in all, I'm sad to finally see the Bionicle sets end, I grew up with this series and I was glat to be a part of the community based around them.

On a much less depressing note, this means I will have more money in my lego budget for castle and other system stuff, some of those Atlantis sets look really cool.

"I remember how my great-uncle Jerry would sit on the porch and whittle all day long. Once he whittled me a toy boat out of a larger toy boat I had. It was almost as good as the first one, except now it had bumpy whittle marks all over it. And no paint, because he had whittled off the paint."
