This whole thing reminds me of something about JTO.

Journey to One, while a neat show, ended up getting minor continuity errors. In one of the earlier episodes, Gali mentions there's so much [The Toa] don't know about their pasts.

In the finale, she says, as a continuation of their little speech, "...While we return to the stars."

...Lego. What the heck. You... You made some of us excited to learn backstories of these characters, complicated as it may sound. You made us want to explore more of these heroes.

And then you DITCHED it all together. (Here comes the rant.)

You're slowly turning into what Nickelodeon has with SpongeBob. You're afraid to take risks. (Thank you, Saberspark.) You have all your money coming in off System sets like Star Wars and Ninjago. But we're going to get tired of Ninjago. I ALREADY AM! Day of the Departed came on a bit ago, I watched it, and I was like, "Wow, what a neat ending... This IS the end, ri- ARE YOU KIDDING ME ANOTHER FRICKING SEASON"

While I know there are sets that didn't appear in the show, YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO THAT. You're LEGO! THE KINGS AND QUEENS OF IMAGINATION! For GOD'S sake, make your OWN models that don't even appear in a BOOK! Sure, that's our job, but we get tired of it. We want models from YOU. We don't want models from a show that didn't even start the season the sets are in. We want models from your heads. We want things that are unique.

Atleast, it's what I want.

But I guess no one really cares about what I want. As long as you make money, you won't even give a damn about anything I've just said.

Look, I still buy Lego sets, licensed or not. I love the Super Heroes themes. I love the Star Wars themes. But because they're my favourite things. I love Star Wars, and I love Marvel and DC. The Lego sets are just toys to me.

Bionicle G1, on the other side, was original. It was one of your best lines. It's what most boys were into: Robots fighting each other, good vs evil, in the most epic battles ever. Death and betrayal, sadness and despair, you made us FEEL these emotions.

But in G2, you made us feel brokenhearted. You made us feel like you didn't even try. We all bought the sets, but most of us had grown up. You didn't advertise a whole lot (I never saw a SINGLE ad for the 2016 sets), the books were... alright (we can write better than that, lego), the show was okay, and the sets... Some of them were good. Others were average. And then there were ones that were ''ABSOLUTE JUNKYARD TRASH HEAPS. ''​(Looking at you, Beasts. You're a little weird.)

​​Lego, I'm glad you tried. I'm glad you attempted to revive an old friend. I'm glad for the sets I got.

But all we want is for you to do it right.

Please. Just once.

Do it right.

Please.
