>>8182412Bionicle did so badly that it was one of the major contributors to LEGO nearly going bankrupt.
To be fair, you could say the same about Tamagotchi in 1998, but Bandai reworked them and relaunched them better than ever and they've been a staple ever since. Bionicle is dead for over a decade, they tried bringing them back for a year, it flopped AGAIN, and has been dead since.
