If G2 (with CCBS and bad story) was launched in 2011 - diehard fans wouldn’t like it. They wanted G1, and G2 is not G1. Also, exactly those not-diehard fans that left during 5 years, could have returned and like G2 because they are not-so-diehard fans.
That’s not exactly my point. If Lego had relaunched Bionicle in 2011, then it could very well have been a continuation of the G1 story, which the fans would’ve liked.
Which reminds me of something…
They spent a silly amount of budget on those ridiculous gold masks, and a certain other theme ate the rest of it, so G2 became yet another theme to be sacrificed on the altar of Ninjago.
Sidenote, seems like this ended up coming true. Hope y’all aren’t too attached to Monkie Kid, folks.
