11. Is it possible to have a Mask of Technopathy? If so, what do you think of it?
22. It says here that Sidorak cursed in an ancient language. Was this the language of the Great Beings? I ask this because they (GB's and MU residents) speak different languages, and the GB's are older than the MU. But how he would know this is an enitrely different story. Is this also the same language in the tunnels below Metru Nui that Bomonga tried to read?
33. Why was the Elemental Lord arc moved up?
44. Did Lesovikk have to fight Sidorak on the island he defended against the Visorak?




51) Is there an 8 or 9 year old in the world who will know what Technopathy is? Cause if there isn't, then no point in doing it, this is a line for 9 year olds. 62) No. Sidorak would not have known the GBs language. Only Mata Nui would, and possibly Tren Krom. 73) For reasons I cannot go into, as they relate to future storyline 84) No


9Nothing much, really.

1So I sent Greg a PM about possible EP exposure for the shapeshifters, he ruled this out quite thoroughly. I got this out at least.

2I would like to address if their camouflage is natural though, can you say that?


3Yes, their ability to do what they do is natural to their species




4So their 'shapeshifting' / photo-refraction is a natural occurrence. Seems neat.

1QUOTE 2QUOTE 3QUOTE 4hey greg, how's it been? thanks for the reply when we had some confusion with the Javits Convention Center, umm, i really got a few questions on the top of my head, it would really be cool if you could answer a few or all of them, here....
51) did you and the story team try to make the story this year for a younger range of fans than 2001-2008, or....
62) What color do you think Surel would be?
73) will the summer storyline be more detailed in terms of the wider view, or......
84) will there be 2 Mata Nui sets this summer, can you emphasise on what exactly is going on set-wise for mata nui?
95) so will the Element Lords be sets in 2010 or was that just another rumor?
106) so we're staying on bara magna in 2010, right?
117) will bara magna change dramatically or not-so-dramatically due to mata nui's arrival?
128) will there be any more combiners this year, if so when, if you can tell me.
139) will there be any magazine contests this year?


14THANKS FOR THE ANSWERS, AND THE EFFORT IN THE STORYLINE, KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

151) No, it's aimed at the same age it has always been aimed at 9-10. What we have tried to do is not fill it with a lot of references to 2001-2008, which new fans would be confused by. 162) No idea 173) The summer story is basically the movie, V 184) Yes. There is a canister set and then a larger model, the same way you might see a six-inch Spider-Man figure and an 18 inch Spider-Man figure for sale in a store. 195) No, they will not be sets. 206-7) I can't discuss future storyline 218) None planned right at the moment 229) Yes, probably

23aw, cool, thanks so much some reply q's if you don't mind, sorry sad.gif
241) cool, no questions here 252) maybe red or green, your pick i'm really trying to get a good mindset on him for my MoCing 263) cool, and the book "Raid on Vulcanus" 274) so, do you know what store the titan size mata nui will be in, assuming it's an exclusive. 284b) will they both look the same, or just similar, same name on the box too, right? 295-7) cool, sorry, and thanks for fixing my errors 308) cool, maybe one about a glatorian fighting against the skrall, and combined from Glatorian Legends, just suggesting

312) Surel would most likely be white, he's from the ice tribe 323) ROV takes place before the movie, so while it is out in June, it is really first half storyline 334) It is an exclusive, don't know what store 344b) No idea
#6804
1Hello again Greg . Just a few more questions,
21)Why isn't Gelu and Stronius in the movie? They're the most good looking ones IMO. 32)Since Ackar and Tarix are one of the oldest Glatorian. How old is Vastus? 42a)Kiina? 53)Who's currently holding the secrets of the certavus? 63a)If it's Berix, is he going to put use into it? Like give it to a water tribe Glatorian for better fighting? 74)Could you tell us the why the EL were moved back to 2009?

8That's all for now thanks in advance .


91) Simple. One, how the sets look has nothing to do with it, because the movie was written before the sets were designed. And put simply, you cannot do a movie that features every single set, because then no one will get more than four minutes of screen time. So you need to focus on a small number of characters. 102) Vastus is a little younger than Tarix, Kiina is quite a bit younger than Tarix, but older than Gresh. 113) Berix 123a) Nope. He's a collector, not a librarian. 134) No, it's for reasons I cannot discuss at this time.


14lol at 3a. :P

1Hey Greg, just a few questions this time,
21. Is it possible that Vezon's cape used to belong to the OoMN member that was killed by Teridax near Mangaia, who found it caught on the rocks of the Great Barrier near the OoMN's Toa Canister?
32. What does the village of Iconox look like? Does it have walls built around it or any other distinctive features? The reason I ask is that the second part of the Certavus contest is to create artwork of the winning model, and I want to work on the background before it starts. I'm planning on making it look like Iconox in the White Quartz Mountains, with Certavus overlooking it from a cliff, so I need to know a little more about its appearance if I want to make it canonically correct. 42b. Also, are there any trees in the White Quartz Mountains? If so, what do they look like?
5Thanks a lot .
6-Lord Salokin

71) Don't think so, no 82) No, there aren't trees in the mountains. As for how Iconox looks, I am not sure if there is art already done for it somewhere, but regardless, I can't give you help I am not giving to everyone else -- wouldn't be fair.

91. Thought it would make sense... 102. I was gonna post this here either way, but I guess I'll just use my imagination.

1Has anyone ever actually seen a Baterra?


2Yes.
3Have they been seen to shapeshift, or just appear and disappear like the one(s) in EotS?


4Appear and disappear. They don't shapeshift in front of you, would ruin the element of surprise. They do it behind you. You see them when you turn upon hearing a noise, just before they kill/severely wound you.

1<Hello, Greg. After reading the discussion of thw4th chapter of EotS, 2a question popped in my Andalite head: Everyone knows that the Baterra 3are shapeshifters by nature and can disapear in second, but how do they 4vanish? Teleportation, or by becoming invisible? Also, if the latter, how do 5the Skrall know they are shapeshifters if the're invisible. Thank you for 6you're time.>

7~Ax



8Neither. Works like this. You and a friend are walking through a forest. One of the trees is actually a shapeshifted baterra. It turns back into a baterra, attacks your friend. When you turn to see what's happening, it's a tree again, so it seems to have vanished.

9<So now we know the truth aboot the Baterras stealth. Now I wonder 10if baterra should be capatalized or not.> :unsure:

#6814
1Hey Greg. Got a bunch here. :D
21. Did the Baterra exist before the EP War? 32. Do they have their own name for their species, seeing as Baterra is what the Skrall call them? 43. Is there any size limitation, either big or small, for the Baterra's shapeshifting abilities? 54. If they have the ability, why haven't the Baterra infiltrated the Skrall already, since they can shapeshift and pass off as Skrall or any other living thing in there? 65. Is this a Sand Bat? 76. All right, I've made a list of characters from Bionicle 4. So far, we know that the following characters have speaking roles: Ackar, Tarix, Kiina, the Vorox, Mata Nui, Vastus, Gresh, Strakk, the Skrall, Raanu, Berix, and Metus. Characters who don't are Malum, Gelu, and Stronius. 8Can you confirm/deny if any of these characters are in the movie as well? 9Tarduk, the Zesk, Atakus, Fero, Tuma, the Baterra, Crotesius, Scodonius, Sahmad, Perditus, Telluris
10Thank you for your time.

11:t: :m_o::c:


121) No 132) Possibly 143) I haven't decided yet 154) Because they have no need to infiltrate. Baterra are not interested in spying on you and learning your plans, they are interested in killing you. They don't need to infiltrate to do that. Plus they haven't made it that far south yet, anyway. 165) The only illo of a sand bat is in the second 2009 BIONICLE reader. No other images of it exist. 176) I can tell you that Tuma is, and the baterra are not. The others I honestly don't know about, because they may appear in scenes and just not have speaking roles.


181. That's what I was hoping he'd say. 196. Figured as much...

1Sorry to bother you again, but I was wondering...
21a. Is Malum's name based on the latin word for bad/evil/wicked? 31b. Metus from the latin for fear?
42. Are Iron Wolves prototype biomechanical creatures?
53. Does Ahkmou carry a sign of office (like a hammer) and has he changed from how he looked before? (matoran body to turaga-esque body)
64. I noticed that Dume (set version) has the same body as the metru matoran pre-cataclysm, was there a difference (storywise) between the two (like post-cataclysm matoran and turaga metru), or did the metru matoran rebuild themselves to look more like their leader?
75. If there were only two Olmaks, how did the toa on Jovan's team and Brutaka get theirs?
8thanks in advance


91a-1b) No idea, I didn't choose the names 102) Well, they certainly are bio-mechanical 113) No and no 124) Dume's look basically came from how he was animated for the movie, and I have no idea what the thinking was behind the look. Not a set designer. 135) I don't understand your question -- you had two, you had two people using them, where's the confusion?


145. I guess what I was trying to say (to karzahni with my explanation skills) was how did they obtain the Olmaks if Artahka only made two?


155) Again, don't see the problem. Artakha made them and gave them to those characters.

1Hi, 2Here's something that I was wondering for some time. I don't know if it's posted in here already... :)
3Hi Greg, 4I've got just one question today:
5Does Branar look like a normal Skrall, or like Stronius?
6Thanks for your time,

8Skrall warrior, he is not special forces

#6818
1Hello, Greg . I have a few questions for you.
2EotS:
31) What is the pronunctiation for 'Branar'? 41a) 'Baterra'?
52) Does Branar look the same as a standard Skrall, or more like Stronius, or what?
63) Are the Baterra capable of speech? 73a) Do they use advanced technology of any kind? (ex: Vehicles)
8RotGB:
94) Is Surel older than Tarix? 104a) Certavus?
115) How old are the Iron Wolves?
12RoS:
136) Does Ahkmou wear any Turaga-esque clothing, or carry a Badge of Office of any sort?
147) This doesn't have to do as much with RoS, but for clarification: You canonized Tidal Spear for Gaaki, and Avalanche Spear for Pouks. Later, someone asked if Pouks' weapon was the Quaker Spear, and you said it was. So I will ask what is the name of Pouks' weapon?
15Thanks .


161) Bray-narr 171a) Bah-the-rah 182) Standard Skrall, he is not special forces 193) I can't answer this 204) No 214a) No 225) Very old 236) No 247) Yes, which makes me wonder why people are asking me about a name when I have already canonized another name. So I am going with Avalanche Spear, as that is what I okayed first -- and the second question should never have been asked.

25Confirmation on Pouks' spear, pronunctiations, and Greg can't say a thing about the Baterra.
#6819
1Hi GregF . I have a couple of questions.
21) I know you've written some other books before Bionicle... I think I remember hearing that they were out of print, but I'd like to verify with you. Either way, could you tell me the names, please? I'm a big fan of your writing, and I'd love to try and find copies of you books that may be out there somewhere.
32) I have a theory about the Red Star. Basically, it is that the Red Star is a stimulus for events. That's why it was used to predict things. Its placement may somehow awake the Bohrok when they are needed, and it created the lightning strike that turned Jaller &Co. into Toa. THe beings inside control it and decide when things need to happen, and how to make them happen. Is this anything close to the truth?
4Thanks .
5Saiph



61) The three main novels I did prior to coming to West End were The River of God, ######'s Feast, and Demon's Dream. You can usually find them used on Amazon or ebay. 72) Nope, you're thinking too big


8Interesting on #2. If that's too big... I can't tell if that's a hint in disguise...
#6820
1Hi Greg, just got a few q's, I hope you can answer them.
21) The mysterious shapeshifters: Is their power true shifting a la Makuta, or more advanced natural camoflage that the Skrall mistook for literal shapeshifting? (ie a human soldier wearing a disguise to blend into a bush, and a person who does not understand saying "omigosh he turned into a bush")
32) Are Ackar and Raanu's blades made of fire or metal shaped like flames?
43) Are Vorox/Zesk stingers venomous?
54) Which of the BM village would you say is the most rich? 64a) Poorest?
75) Can GBs use kanohi or any other MU items of power?
8Thanks,
9Uzku



101) No, they actually would transform into a bush shape 112) Metal. Glatorian do not have elementally powered weapons 123) Not that I recall, but I could be wrong. Haven't read up on that in a while 134) Don't know, hasn't come up 145) I can't discuss this

15Some stuff, 5 could be interesting.

1hi greg . i have a couple more questions for you:
21. was roxtus once inhabited by glatorian-agori? if yes, how come they abandoned it?, and who made the roxtus arena?
32. what is the main audience intended for the new bionicle movie? will it be more violent and intriguing than the rest?
43. will we have a theme song for this year in bionicle
54. who do you like more: kopaka or malum?
65. what class is stronius in the skrall ranks? or is he just one of the usual troppers, who has been given a name and the rights to "differintiate" himself from the other skrall due to being an "outstanding" skrall?
7thank you very much for your time


81) Gets answered later 92) Same audience the other ones were aimed at, 9-12, that's the BIONICLE audience. 103) No idea. 114) Kopaka 125) Stronius is the equivalent of Special Forces.

1Important info for BS01:
2Hey Greg, just one little tiny question. I just read in BS01 in the Bara Magna timeline this:
3"The Element Lords, military leaders of the war on Spherus Magna, are trapped on the moons of Bara Magna"
4Is this true?



5No, it is not true. The only reference to the ELs so far was in the last chapter of the podcast. There is no reference to them being trapped on moons of Bara Magna, just that they were trapped. The ELs do not have space flight capability, so had they been trapped on moons, they would still be there.


6I read this in the Timeline/Bara Magna page, so please fix this.

1Hey GregF, 2I just had one question. 3You recently said that Surel was once part of the Ice Tribe or something like that. How is this possible? I thought Glatorian (species, not title) were never part of tribes. Or were they part of elemental tribes before the Shattering? Is this how Kirbold knows of Surel? 4Thanks.


5Ah, but Surel is not a Glatorian. Glatorian are freelance fighters who are employed by the villages of Bara Magna. Surel was never a freelance fighter, he was a warrior in an ice army.

63. Was there an elemental lord for each element or just fire,jungle,ice,stone,rock,and water?

1A few things I asked Greg 2 days ago:
21. All of the Glatorian who took part in the EP war know about the Elemental Lords, yes? 32. Do the ELs have invidual names, or do they just go with "Elemental Lord of [insert element here]"? 43. It's the middle of April, and so far each serial only has 3 chapters. Do you think we'll have to cut down to 7-8 chapters for each serial (except ROS, which is going to run for the entire year)?


51) Yes 62) Don't know yet, but I don't have names free to give all of them. 73) We'll see. There's no law that says the serials have to end in July, either, just because we have done it that way before. We could run them all the way to September, since they take place prior to the movie and the movie is not out until then.

8Well, at least we don't have to worry about the lack of serials anymore.

1Hey GregF, just one question. 2Now that Desert of Danger has been released, could you please reveal the name of Mata Nui's tools/weapons are, since he appears to be the main character in the book? 3Thanks.


4Only one tool has a name, that's his shield, because other than the launcher, it is the only weapon the set comes with. If it is not named in the book, (and I don't remember if it is or not), then I cannot release the name yet. No other weapon other than the shield and the Thornax launcher has a special name.

5Lol, for some reason, at the time I was typing this question up, I was thinking about the Mata Nui image in the Jan-Feb LEGO Magazine, which had two weapons instead of one. Ah well, I tried. :)

11) Is there any substance that can withstand The Shadowed One's disintegrator eyebeams?
22) How strong(physically) is Mata Nui(in robot form)?
33) Do the Great Beings have elemental powers?
43a) If they do, how many elements can they control?
5Thank you for your time.

61) Well, Zaktan withstood them 72) He's a 40 million foot tall metal robot, so I would imagine he would be pretty strong, don't you? 83) I cannot discuss this.
9Thank you for answering my last questions, here are some more.
101. Is the EOP bigger than any planet in our solar system?
111a) If it is, is it bigger than the sun?
122. Mata Nui doesn't have any fighting experience, right?
132a) If he doesn't, wouldn't he be clumsy at fighting?
143. How come the skrall are so strong?
154. Since the residents of Bara Magna are organic, could they be infected by some disease?
165. Could an Olmak open a portal to the past?

171) I have no idea, never measured it 182) Nope 192a) Yup 203) Cause they are. 214) Yes 225) No, Olmak does not allow for time travel. However, time in some alternate dimensions means faster or slower than in the main universe, so you could go from April 13, 2009 in your universe to January 1st, 1909 in another universe. But you can't use it to go into the past or future of your own universe.

1Few questions for you, sorry if they're repetitive and ordered weirdly. :P
21) Did the Elemental Lords lead elemental factions?
32) Were they leaders, or were they working for someone else?
43) Were the Elemental Lords all the same species?
54) Were the Elemental Lords created/born Elemental Lords, or is it something they became?
64a) Is Elemental Lord just a title you can acquire?
75) Were the Great Beings against the EP war?
86) What made you move the Elemental Lord storyline forward sooner than was planned?
97) Will the Baterra have a major role in future story?
108) Were there multiple Elemental Lords for each faction?
119) Were all Elemental Lords for the war?
1210) Are the Elemental Lords still in some sort of power now, or have they been banished or dethroned etc...?
13Thank you, Greg. :)


14I don't want to get into all this yet -- we just introduced them, and I don't want to give away all the info on them on BZP as opposed to in story.


15Ok, can you say how fast this storyline will move, or at the moment are you more introducing them for something bigger latter on?
16Also how heavily exactly have you been involved in the making of the movie?
17Thank you. =)


181) No, I never know how fast or slow things will move, I make those decisions as I write 192) I wrote the story for the movie, and worked closely with the screenwriter as she did the script. Once the script was done and approved by LEGO and the studio, my involvement ended.


20I knew I was unlikely to get an answer. I'll probably re-ask later this year at some point when Greg is more willing. :)

1QUOTE 2how do vorox have machanical inplants if they are so primitive now or are they smarter than we give them credit for.

5How much intelligence would it take? Chimps and apes and some birds are capable of using tools ... all it would take would be a primitive race memory of how this was done. We also never said the Vorox would have implants as sophisticated as those of other parts of the population. Theirs might be as simple as subdermal armor plating.

1Hey Greg. Thanks for the quick reply.
21. Branar is a warrior Skrall. Does he have any specific features, distinction of armor, etc., that would distinguish him from the Skrall set, or does he look exactly like it? 31a. Assuming that he does look exactly like the set, would this be a picture of him? Image I ask because Branar was described as having armored hands, and the Skrall sets have red hands, whereas this picture has black hands, giving the appearance of armor.
42. Oh, and to clarify on the Hagah Spear ordeal, the BS01 staff won't accept the names until they are used in story - a point clarified by the PM with Quake Spear, which illustrated the fact that there is too much room for error and confusion otherwise.
5Thank you for your time.

6:t: :m_o::c:


71) No, he is named, that's the only difference 81a) No, it's not 92) You may be waiting a while then


101. There, so any old picture will do. 111a. Darn, that would have been cool. 122. Hm...

Magna
1Why is the Avalanche Spear so important to people here?


2Because the BS01 staff blows sky-high every time something a fan suggests is canonized. Then Erebus had the bright idea of sending in a fake name to prove how unreliable something like that is, and sixteen million other people comment about it and send reconfirmation PMs. Greg asked a question in reply to someone else, and I answered it. :P
3Btw, it's that important to me because I started this mess by getting Tidal Spear canonized.

1Hey, Greg, I had a coupla' quick questions: 2-Have the Red Star inhabitants always been in there? 3-Are the Great Beings aware that they exist?



4Yes and yes


5Not sure if this is new or not, so can someone tell me?
