Tell me you know nothing about the economics of toy production without telling me you know nothing about the economics of toy production. It's not 'used to', tooling costs for new parts is always the driving factor. Bionicle died because it's sales went completely down the shitter in its last few years as the target demographic aged out of the line and also because it was a line that used a disproportionately high amount of newly tooled elements each year that had very little usage outside of Bionicle itself.
Yes Lego has money now but that's not the point, no large company is going to waste money needlessly when they don't have to. Bionicle literally died twice because of poor sales and there is nothing to incentivise Lego to bring it back in principle, fan passion does not equate 1:1 with actual sales which are needed to keep any product line going. The line is never coming back in the way you'd want it to, move on.
