I don’t wanna be that guy, but I’ve gotta be that guy. If you did at least a bit of research before jumping to conclusions, you’d know that people have been buying Quake Beast along with all of the other beasts. There aren’t any store exclusives.

Has anyone else having trouble finding Ekimu in stores? I sure am. I see all the other sets minus Ekimu and I need him. NEED!

I have all the sets, so I’d say, no?

ok, i was at that store again (like i mentiond many posts ago) and they did not have them… well to tell you all the truth, they had resived a new batch of Bionicle sets… they had not yet packed out.
but anyway, while i was there i asked them about how bionicle as a theme was doing… He told me that the LEGO sets they sold the most off where Ninjago and Nexo Knight sets, Bionicle on the other hand he said only sold “ten per unit” (im not really sure what he meant with that, if he meant they sold ten per day, per week or even month.)

Maybe he means 10 by shipped box they get for that line…which is rather small but given how a lot of popular lines have sprung up during Bionicles revival, Im sure its one of those reason as to why kids dont buy Bionicle as much as they did in 2001.
What popular lines did you have back then. You had Star Wars and Harry Potter, both which sets with visually were kinda meh while Bionicle was new hip and fresh and visually appealing. Now you have a lot more themes that are doing the same thing and are more appealing to the kids cause of that ( I believe LEGO Minecraft and Ninjago were one of LEGOs smartest choices to do in their modern companies life due to tapping to ether a very popular gaming franchise for kids, or to something that every kid/preteen likes in their toys).
Its not just the fanbase (although the split is harmful dont mistake me), its a slew of different factors ranging from marketing, to ■■■■■ in consumer demand and generational differences.

Based on my rudimentary knowledge, I believe “ten per unit” would mean that for every ■■■■■■■■■■■■■ of a certain size, ten sets within that unit are sold, while the rest are not.
Success, then, depends on the size of the unit, and how many sets are in one.

The one in Oslo?
that would be the one i guess. the senter is called Storo Senter for a reason.
Edit: just a little info here guys, but i checked how many skull Warriors i would need if i would make a display, and i would need 6, four as body guards for Slicer and Basher, and two as part for the two Skull Combiner guards for Kulta.
if any of you guys have checked how much 6 skull warriors corst from the LEGO store, you would be shocked with the Norwegian price for all of them: 1019,4 Kr.
It’s cheaper if you buy at LEGO shop at home tough, The only set I ever bought in a store in was Kopaka, Lewa and Gali.
