Hapori Tohu Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 The 'Coming Soon' page has been removed and said search now returns Hero Factory products instead. How that is to be interpreted is up to you...but I feel someone at LEGO realized they revealed too much too soon. -- Adrian View the full article Quote News Forums Q&A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

specsowl Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 This is very annoying. I wish Lego would actually reveal something. And give competitors time to launch their own counterstrikes? Exactly! I'm sure LEGO is kind of freaking out right now if the leaks are official. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TakuaNova Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 I just hope Lego doesn't decide to delay and/or cancel it in all after all this... That would be a major bummer... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be a major bummer...They aren't a video game company. Lego is large corporation and a few leaks don't kill them, just scare them. To withdraw would be more detrimental to the company than making less than projected sales at this point I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toa Smoke Monster Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 While I do think that Lego doesn't like that these leaks have gotten out (if they are leaks. I'm still a little suspicious of them), I don't think it will change their overall plans for the future of Bionicle. In fact, these 'leaks' have gotten people excited for the line again. I've seen a few posts on here from members that state that they will buy the new Bionicle sets when they come out. Whether they will or not remains to be seen. (And it depends if the news sets are actually good or just look horrible. ) So if Bionicle is indeed returning, these leaks aren't going to stop it.

Rooster Nui Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Yeah, I'd prefer they officially announce the return of Bionicle closer to the January/February Winter wave launch. That way, the hype doesn't die down and the Hypetrain can have a smooth travel. It is possible they'll announce it at the New York Comic Con.

Gatanui Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 I just hope Lego doesn't decide to delay and/or cancel it in all after all this... That would be a major bummer...Why would LEGO ever do something so stupid? They have nothing to gain from that. I think you're worrying a little too much. -Gata 1 Quote - Gata Please don't use my avatar or signature without permission, thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBH, that whole scenario sounds kinda unlikely to me. I mean, all the compettitors I've seen recently are branching off into things like Halo and HTTYD.

I mean, all the compettitors I've seen recently are branching off into things like Halo and HTTYD. Bionicle was a large source of profit for TLG. do you really think any competitors would hesitate to find ways to draw sales away if they had reason to believe they were bringing it back? They already strive to compete in the building toy department. Edited August 2, 2014 by Octodad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This us almost a flagship product.(I say almost because their real flagship is the brick system as a whole) So we really can't do anything but wait now.

CeeCee Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 Maybe they have something big planned on the reveal abd want to keep us anticipated. Quote Signature Guidelines: Avatar and signature total file size may not exceed 250 KB! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if it does come back, we have to remember to buy the sets and support the line.Generation 2 won't survive if the line doesn't make any money. Sure, all the kids will buy the sets because "zomg robot warriors!!" but an extra push from all us older fans will help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
