Because of the dratted 'fanbase'. Apparently kids nowadays love stories where all the characters get blown up using massive, oversized cannons which are far too heavy for posing. And too simple to build.
*Friends hold back Eranok who is enraged* Gah! Must take anger out on pillow...
Why must so many lttle kids make up the fanbase, if more older kids made up the fanbase BIONICLE would be more darker and my style because I think that's what a lot of people want, Raise hand if you want BIONICLE darker. *raises hand*
*Raises hand*
