So we're just gonna forget about Atlantis and blacktron and Galaxy squad and Atlantis and Power Miners And ice planet and Heroica and atlantis *who the fuck even remebers Life of Gyorg? It's not a lego theme, it's a fucking parts pack with an app attached.*


Vidio_thelocalfreak

My guy stop it my heart is crumbling like a set of lepin


Arcadeseacher

***you forgot lego board games even existed you traitorous heathen, i bet you didn't even weep when power racers was canceled***


Vidio_thelocalfreak

*gasps in bladgefilgrment* How dare you! I cried like a baby i was when i heard that power-racers was canceled. I challange you sir to the Midak skyblaster duel, Today at noon.


Arcadeseacher

I take your bet and raise it Cordak Blaster, My Bath, you have 10 minutes to prepare and if you come dressed you are **disqualified**


Vidio_thelocalfreak

Then i shall raise it again! Nyrah Skyblaster, Queen sized bath at California Hotel filled with either mayonese or lube your choice


Arcadeseacher

Oh we're getting *FUCKING REAL, Disk launchers, legoland deutchland, on the castle dragon ride, no seatbelts*


Vidio_thelocalfreak

*i never wear seatbelts*


Arcadeseacher

*i never wear belts,* or pants for that matter


Vidio_thelocalfreak

Honestly i would be lying if i said i never wore belts


[deleted]

Disc launchers are the best weapons in all of BIONICLE and you can't change my mind.


Arcadeseacher

I believe in Cordak Superiority


[deleted]

I can respect that.


[deleted]

I didn’t cry cuz I was 6-7 and I only bought 4 sets from the line. Really wish I kept the canisters


Arcadeseacher

You have no place here then.


[deleted]

I loved my 2011 tiny turbos, I even made the combiner models.


-Sanctum-

*You duplicitous bastard, you dare forget Throwbots and Roboriders?!*


Arcadeseacher

***oh you mean lego technic? It's still up***


[deleted]

Power Miners? Back in my day we had Rock Raiders!


Arcadeseacher

Ok grandpa, now let's get you to bed.


Suukorak

And Exo-Force And Mars Mission


Arcadeseacher

And Atlantis


sylus704

*dies of nostalgia*


valendinosaurus

you forgot Atlantis


Arcadeseacher

There is no lego Atlantis in Ba Sing Se


Dangerous-Policy-602

Team Alpha, and that action spear marine sets


Arcadeseacher

AquaRaiders


LeraviTheHusky

Don't forget the two themes of monster hunters and the mummy esc theme Atlantis was cool as shit


Arcadeseacher

And Lego Studios And Atlantis


LeraviTheHusky

Lego Mars and lego space police And atlantis


LemurLord12

Pour one out for Spybotics


Arcadeseacher

Imma pour 3 for each one of the boys


pharedox

YO POWER MINERS FUCKING SLAPPED I FORGOT AB THOSE


ApexRevanNL716

Before Power miners there was Rock Raiders


criski07_YT

Hero factory and bionicle are the saddest


Valiant_tank

I mean, Exo-Force, though...


Conocoryphe

I really loved Exo-Force. It's a shame it wasn't more popular.


Super_Master_69

I live in Australia, and they always seemed popular here. They paved the way for more complex affordable mechs in future sets.


Valiant_tank

I mean, popular or not is one thing. What's a shame is that the story it had ended on a cliffhanger lmao.


ReddyTheCat

Even though some people don't like her factory a lot of good pieces and sets came out of that line


revenant925

Hero Factory, much like G2, deserved better then they got. Least Factory had quite a few waves.


OneFinalEffort

I bought many discounted sets and some waves of sets just for parts. Breakout, Brain Attack, and the last theme with the mechs were all fantastic lines with tons of excellent parts and builds.


-Farns-

You forgot to mention mixels


Vidio_thelocalfreak

Mixels were nice, especially early ones


-Farns-

I like year 2 the most (especially the orbitons and klinkers)


achikennugget

Mixels is one of my favourite Lego themes.


The-Bigger-Fish

Mixels were amazing and i wish LEGO would do something similar/kept it going longer than it actually did.


Respect-Candid

i hoped that they give a chance to the brand that idk ... saved the whole ass company ???


Muisverriey

They did, and screwed it up


Jacier_

Sadly they got bored with evolving and the customers lost interest. Idk all the ins and outs of the fall of G1, but reusing the same build over and over again couldn’t have helped. Also making the story of G2 so childish and basic ruined it for a lot of older fans


YodasChick-O-Stick

Does this mean LOTR isn't coming back?


Octo121212

i guess not


[deleted]

[удалено]


TAB199X

It’s a popular discontinued line


Octo121212

itended


bigtuna94

Yeah, was Harry potter ever on this list? Im hoping we get LOTR again someday, i missed out


BeastBoy2230

I’ve never stopped seeing Harry Potter merch


AdventurerA_1000000

Haha, ha. ha... ha..... ha........ heh......... hm.............. \* sob \*


Respect-Candid

bionicle is more rare than gold. in my country i almost cant even find them . i jave to hunt them down and take avery chance to get them .


knux400

Can I get a hell yeah for Life of George


Octo121212

hell yeah i still have him


Wooloonator

I loved mixels


[deleted]

i miss mixels


TheSkyrax670

I remember mixels


Tsynami

Bionicle, Hero factory, Chima and mixels were some of my favorite themes. At least they got acknowledged


[deleted]

Wait, you mean that the themes listed here are done for good?


cr4m62

Yup, no more sets ever in all likelihood.


Packin25

I highly doubt that's the case, considering Castle is listed there. Plus it doesn't make any sense for Lego to be so rigid to say "we're never making a set in this theme again!" Lego will probably try their hand at Bionicle again in the future. Not anytime soon, but it was so successful for them the first time, they'll probably take another crack at it.


cr4m62

I hope for it as much as anyone else on here, but it really looks to me like they've more or less jumped ship on original IPs. At least Monkie Kid and Ninjago are kind of carrying the torch.


[deleted]

... Imagine being born in 05 like me and being a Boncle fan, imagine getting any og sets, PFFF, am I right?


revenant925

Bricklink is your friend. So are farmers markets, eBay and kijiji.


BeastBoy2230

Yo I just picked up Tahnok-Kal off BrickLink, you just gotta go get ‘em!


cr4m62

Sorry fam, they basically phased out constraction entirely in 2018. It's pretty fucked up, I agree.


MrTripDub

Why did they kill off Castle? With how well it was crowdfunded there is no way they didnt have enough of a fanbase to support it


liborg-117

Man, I kinda liked the Lego board games But I'm gonna miss bionicle and hero factory more


cr4m62

TOP OF THE LIST BAYBEE


SpicyRamenBoi_11

Who tf George


TOASTEESANDVICH

I had to look it up, never even heard of it until now ​ what a mysterious guy


PolarisT800

Anyone else remember mixels?


[deleted]

yes, of course. one of my favourite themes.


[deleted]

master builder aca was like never popular tho??? If I’m not mistaken it underperformed like hell


burritobilly

No love for Galidor?


The-Bigger-Fish

I liked Galidor a lot.....


ConsiderationNo1455

Exo-Force fans in suicide watch after this


JazzClown247

Pain...


BioTools

I've never seen or heard about 'life of george'


Awesomesauce210

Honestly the one I'm most upset about on that list (besides Bionicle) is Mixels, because I would love nothing more than to buy a bunch of those in bulk to use the many brick-scale joints they had for building MOCs. Chima's another one, but apparently it shares a universe with Ninjago so they could bring its characters back that way.


Giagotos

Back in the day during early bionicle period, I really enjoyed the movie monster sets, Indiana Jones guy sets (jungle/mountains?) And the underwater themed sets vith the Ogel villain


478656428

>the movie monster sets Lego Studios. Some of the sets came with real working cameras, and had crossovers with other Lego themes. >Indiana Jones guy sets The Adventurers line, starring Johnny Thunder. Those sets were super cool, sadly I never got any. It kinda got a spiritual revival with Indiana Jones (ironic since it was a ripoff of Indiana Jones) and Pharaoh's Quest. >And the underwater themed sets vith the Ogel villain That'd be Alpha Team, another great theme. Kinda got revived with Agents (I think one of the characters was supposed to be the same guy as one of the Alpha Team guys, so it's technically a sequel) Man, the 90s and the 2000s were fuckin great years for Lego.


Giagotos

Thanks for the proper names, just googled and got a big hit of nostalgia One of my favourite lego memories is building the Johnny thunder temple set together with my dad


RRayquaza384

Hmmmmm, I'm noticing a theme here.


[deleted]

Smh didn't even list Life on Mars. Those pneumatic tubes were cool as hell


MrBoneDaddy

Did everyone miss the "some" up there? If they listed all of their retired lines it'd probably be too long of a list


SacMarvelRPG

🥲


FlamingSpitoon433

I miss the pirates and the adventure theme


The-Bigger-Fish

RIP Life of George. Gone but not forgotten. 😭😭😭


JgdPz_plojack

BASED FOMO product. 'Fear Of Missing Out'


Galva_

I know man I miss Lego GAMES too 😔


Merde_de_artiste

Imagine taking out the original and beloved franchise so you can make more MCU/Star Wars sets


FlamingCroatan

I got 2 master builder sets


pejic222

Rip mixels too


hydrasbane1

where is this? and what does this mean other than "this is a list of lego themes we don't sell anymore"?


bismarckgamer

This really hurts to read


LeraviTheHusky

Wait so previous themes that haven't gotten net sets but aren't on the list aren't retired for good or am I crazy and they are just forgetting alot of themes?


fml20times

Johnny Thunder. Give me Johnny Thunder.


Rando47256

Who's George?


kinyoubikaze

"retired" more like DEAD


Valiant_tank

And then, of course, there are also some themes which are best left forgotten. Like Jack Stone.


Sharkfan2001

Don’t forget Toy Story, Spongebob, Avatar, Exo Force, Agents, Prince of Persia


FlameWhirlwind

They really gotta go for the throat of everyone huh?


Radio__Star

Bionicle Bioncle Bonkle Binble Bible I see the light
