seems like itād be really broad. We already have more specific topics for discussing gundum and bionicle and whatnot, so I think itād be unnecessary.
you know what? (well first, youāre right) but we need some form of census on this board. i would honestly like to see the ratio of tfols to afols to sfols (senior fans of lego), males to females, and the most common secondary (or primary) interests. how would they do that? who knows. not me, for sure.

I guess a poll would be a decent start. (Maybe if it was made the header, a good amount of people would do it?)
yeah, probably. no matter what way it was done, i would say someone of importance would need to be behind it, like a master or something, just to make sure itās completely okay in case thereās some secret rule that only mods and ttv members know about that says no censuses.
(looks at your ranking)
well your job now ima dip

more happy that it seems iāll have a lasting impact on the community (in the form of a new commonly used term) than entertained, honestly
Two most obvious disparities in that vote are Creator (way more popular with AFOLās than TFOLās) and Chima/Nexo Knights (which are way more popular with TFOLās than AFOLās).
I would have voted Chima if the story had been good because I wasnāt against the ātalking animalā premise that plenty of others were. But the line itself didnāt deliver, unfortunately.
Bit surprised Star Wars is less popular with AFOLās, apparently, but there you go.

I thought the actual sets were pretty neat, at least aesthetically and in terms of playability.

They definitely could have been worse - they had a nice feel to them, and they had a nice consistent design that was pretty good. But Iād of liked them to find more ways to say āthis is a Lion vehicleā without it being āGIANT LION FACEā on the front every time. 
You have animal people! You can do so much more than just paint human vehicles like animals. Stuff like Speedorz was at least a bit different - like a motorbike but not really, and they added to the worldbuilding. Would have been nice if the big-scale sets tried a similar thing.

I always saw that as BEING the consistent design.
And I loved it.

Late, by why so definite? Iām an AFOL and my first ever set was a Racer.
To the previous post: precise observations. But sadly not so many people voted, so it is hard to tell actually. I find it interesting that Exo-Force is so popular, with both categories. Also, Technic is surprisingly high in TFOL category, even though it is kinda ācomplexā theme.
About Chima: Lion Royal Tanks and āLennoxās Lion Attackā also had claws and wheels/treads kinda resembled legs. Lion boats does not have Lion faces. Also, Lion Vehicles are not the best example: Eagles, Crocodiles, Gorilas and Ravens have vehicles that are basically mechanical animals (Command Ship is for the most part) with legs, wings, tails and whatnot. So personnaly, I am really satisfied with Chimaās sets. But there were flaws, many flawsā¦
That doesnāt make it a validly major enough theme.
Weāre talking about the same list that had āTime Chasersā on it, no?

Well to be fair Racers did run longer than bionicle as a theme (2002-2012 if you discount xalax and promotional polybags), resulting in over 200 sets. Iād argue that could be considered major enough.
