Time for a change? A BIG change?

In 2010, Bionicle was discontinued, and Hero Factory was launched.  I was sad for the loss of an old stalwart, but happy to see that I'd be able to use my mountain of parts towards a fresh new use with a lot of future potential.  I happily adapted and hopped on the new bandwagon.

Now, it's still 2010, and second series of Hero Factory sets have been fully unveiled.  These, for better or worse, are vastly more different from even the earlier-in-the-year series than the first HF sets were from Bionicle before them.  Suddenly, a great portion of my mountain of parts is looking quite lonely and behind the times.  I'm not so sure I'll be adapting this time.  Instead, I'm very, very seriously considering making a very, very different move within the LEGO omniverse. 

What do you think, should I do it?  Should I pull the trigger?

  1. I think you should make herofactory models but also make bionicle models every now and again

  2. I would definitely by those masks!!!

    I feel so bad that the Bionicle universe has ended and sometimes I wish Hero Factory and Bionicle would at least tie together in some parts, but anyways that seems like a great idea. With Lego basically anything is possible.

  3. DONT SELL YOUR MASKS!!!
    MASKS CAN MAKE GOOD ARMOUR AND YOU DONT HAVE TO SELL THEM JUST BECAUSE THE HEADTYPE HAS CHANGED.
    THE NEW HEAD TYPE WILL NEVER LAST AND IF YOU SELL THEM I WILL NEVER FORGIVE YOU

  4. I agree with luke1164 and in my sense use your heads, masks, and limbs, but use the HF armor with core. Notice i have not said BODY because some are compatible with Hero Fac. some aren't!

  6. Now that you've reviewed the Hero 2.0 sets and seen the 3.0 ones are you still put off on the new direction?

    Personally I like the new system and look forward to them creating new parts for it.
