Bionicle (stylized as BIONICLE) is a line of construction toys created by the Lego Group marketed primarily for 5-to-16-year-olds. Originally a sub-theme of Lego’s Technic series, the line was launched in 2000 in Europe and Australia and in 2001 in North America. Over the following decade, it became one of the Lego Group's biggest-selling properties and played a part in saving the company from its financial crisis of the late 1990s. The theme was originally discontinued in 2010 after nine years of production, but was rebooted in 2015 for a further two years.
To accompany the sets, Lego created an original story told through an array of multimedia that expanded as the theme continued. Set in a science fantasy universe featuring beings made up of bio-mechanical components, the story chronicles the tales of heroic beings called Toa in their fight against the Makuta, the arc antagonist, as well as the many other evils of their world in order to protect a widespread populace known as the Matoran. While the main story was told through common mediums such as comic books, online games and animated films, a number of additional serials were also incorporated into the saga to help expand it. A similar approach was taken for the theme's rebooted story.
