When I was a kid I hated Bionicle, was more partial to actual full Lego sets myself. Still am, don't like any of that technic stuff.
That said, I just bought two of the newer Star Wars sets - The, what, third remake of the Republic Gunship and the second AT-TE. They're pretty cool. I still have the old Republic Gunship that came out in like 2002, #7163 I think.

It's sturdier than the older one too, but that's to be expected.

Not sure what to do with this one now. After a few years around someone who smoked it's in no condition for selling and has seen a lot of wear from playing. Guess I might just keep it for nostalgia.
