Bionicle

Bionicle is a line of toys created by the LEGO Group in December of 2000, which initially launched in Europe before being released in Canada and the United States six months later. A significant following for the sets grew online, with several fan-sites launching for custom creations, fiction and artwork. The franchise was moderately successful and continued on for the next decade before it was halted in summer of 2010 to make way for a new franchise "Hero Factory." Following the discontinuation of production, the story was continued by head writer Greg Farshtey[1] on a official Bionicle website known as BioncleStory in the form of web series and podcasts.

The MOC database MOCpages[4] was launched on February 4th, 2003, where users can share their own custom LEGO sets (shown below).
