Ninjago: It seems to have "cooled down" story wise, but in my neighborhood sets are still flying off the shelves. I guess it really depends on how well they pull off 2014. Chima: I feel like it has been a bit of a let down for most people who were optimistic about it's story (including myself). Even less encouraging, the sets seem to be in a bit of an overflow at local stores, so I don't know if lego's plans will be taken into action... Keep in mind that there was a lot of story planned for bionicle, but it was cut short. Hero factory: I haven't seen much hype about hero factory these days. The story is a bit too repetitive for anyone older than six years old, and I don't see too many new fans joining. I don't get any excitement out of buying hero factory sets anymore either because of two things. For one, they are building the same thing over and over again, and this common design requires no skill or attention to detail. And two, the characters are boring and generic and have no nostalgic value. Lastly, the heroes seem to be nearing the end of their quest. We have gotten more and more glimpses into the obvious "mystery" bad guy, and all the heroes seem to have become full rank heroes. I really can't see how they plan to keep this going for more than three years,
