Well, right now they need to make kids feel welcome to join the story, and they need to introduce this entire world to them, with the products just hitting shelves. Does anyone remember the early days of BIONICLE? Dare I say it, this is actually more in-depth. I mean, come on let's face it: MNOG was you walking around Mata Nui, and that was it. People can whine and say "Oh, this is worse than Gen 1!!!". Simpler? Yes. Worse? No. I expect that within a few months, we'll get books, comics, more in-depth stories, and longer episodes. Imagine if Lego started the series with the Protectors just walking around, doing village stuff, and then the story just drawled on for months before the Toa arrived. The Toa arriving was literally the first thing that happened in Gen 1, and....oh look at that: Gen 2 is doing the same!
