It will be one of the last in the series if they dont evolve the image slightly.
When the bottom falls out of the scene in about a year's time, they wont be able to rely on all the happy-go-lucky sales that and series like clubland xtreme hardcore are generating now.
Therefore, they should be setting the foundations for pleasing the core scene and maturing it up at the moment instead of getting backlogged in this shiney cartoony power-rangers style world.
It makes sense: no matter what its going to sell in the short term.

Bonkers is too profitale if it did diside to break up and all of them whent there own seperate ways or stared a new thing they would lose out as they must sell soooooooo many copies of ive already preordered my bonkers 15 and so should have everyone else on happyhardcore but if they started a new label with the smae sort of people it wouldnt be that bad would it i nice change a new name a new label new art work ne w people new style in a good way it would be nice if bokers split up an d then we would see what other talents they had up their sleeve and see what else they can achieve in the hardcore community but DO NOT THREAT im sure there will be sepurb replacment if they do decide to disapear from BONKERS

Its just what I think, but I thought It would be obvious, In the UK anyway.
p.s. have you ever heard of Bonkers being number 1 in the compilation chart?

*Dragonboy*
Clubland Extreme Hardcore and the Hardcore Nation albums have outsold the recent Bonkers albums. (and yes this is not just what i think)
Bonkers sales have been slipping since 12 (and again this is true)
We would not be informed if this was the last Bonkers anyway.
Trust me when i say this is looking 99% the last Bonkers. Obviosuly i cant say who told me,but put it this way............ It's people involved in the series in someway.
I will be disappointed as i've been in the scene for 13 years,but it stopped for a 3 year period before so it can stop again. (and although hardcore sales aren't as bad as the used to be,(Bonkers 7 only sold 13,000 worldwide) the sales still aren't that good.
Just wait and see is what i say.

I don't know where your getting your information from but Bonkers 7 sold a hell of a lot more than that.
