    Can someone give me the low-down on Bionicle? All I know is, LEGO action figures, Maori aesthetic, repeated meme references.

    Is it any good? Are parts of it good and others not? Should I get extremely high and watch/play any Bionicle-related media?

      there are some things to like about it buried in there, but as a whole it’s just mediocre children’s toy advertisements.

      Bionicle’s kind of a “You had to be there” thing. Not gonna do anything for a hardcore sci-fi buff, but the writing and setting had a unexpected depth to it by the standards of a nerdy kid in the early '00s. There’re some neat character designs, too.
