1QUOTE 2Mr. Farshtey: This is my first time PM-ing you, I just joined BZP as bionicle_fan_nuva. I will try to refrain from writing you too much
31. How could the Metru's prefixes be the Toa Mata's name prefix if the Toa Mata were not around at the time?
42. What did the Piraka do after they broke the spear of fusion?
53. The Toa coming out this summer as a store exclusive set, (I think you said that it was green) is that THE first Toa in existence? Or is that a Toa from the FIRST team?
64. What in the world was Ehlek doing eating a lightstone in the Barraki movie?
75. Why are the Toa Nuva freeing the Bahrag? I think you said they would...

108. How much is too much when it comes to PMing you? (Daily? Weekly? Monthly?)
119. Could you give me a little info on Jovan?
1210. Is Takanuva staying in Ta-Metru?
1311. Is he facing any dangers on Metru Nui?

151) Simple. Their prefixes are not based on the Toa Mata's names. Ta is a prefix meaning fire ... Ga is a prefix meaning water .. etc. ... so the Mata names are based on the prefixes, not the other way around 162) They went back to the surface of Voya Nui 173) From first team 184) The movie is a vision given to Dekar by the Mask of Life, so don't take it literally 195) Because they have to 20<Irrelevant> 21<Irrelevant> 228) Depends on how many questions you have 239) Such as what? 2410) He is in Metru Nui 2511) Not at the moment 26~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 27Hi Mr. Farshtey, I jsut got your return PM, Thanks: I've got a few more.
281. Where is Ahkmou?
292. What can happen to a mask if it falls into energised protodermis? We know (with the Toa Nuva) that they can 'change', and we know that with 'BIONICLEs' it 'changes' them or kills them depending on their destiny. So what would happen to a mask if it didn't change?
303. If there were to be a BIONICLE 4 (movie) would it be of Voya Nui or both Voya 31Nui and Mahri Nui?
324. Is it an intentional cliche that Mata Nui, Mahri Nui, and Metru Nui start with an M? I wouldn't be asking this if it weren't for Voya Nui.
335. Any idea when the January comic will come out on the web? Because it's now Feb....
346. What are the price tags on the comics for if the only way to get them is for free?
35I'll probably PM you too much because I'm just starting out here, and I have had questions building up for 6 years, sorry. 36Over and out, bionicle_fan_nuva.
371) Metru Nui 382) They transform or they are destroyed 393) Neither. If there were a fourth movie, it would be after this year, so it would not focus on this year or last year's locations or sets.

1Hey Greg, just two questions about Nocturn...
21)How did Nocturn break an island? Did he just whack it at some support point, or something else?
32)Did Nocturn break what is now Mahri Nui off of Voya Nui?
4Thnks for your time, Greg:
5-TBC
61) He hit it at the weak spot, same way you can cut a diamond by hitting it at the right spot 72) No. Nocturn is not native to Voya Nui. Mahri Nui broke off on its own because the land mass it was on was not stable
8Just some questions, nothig too new...
9-TBC
1Some things I was wondering,
2Hey Greg,
3I was rereading the Karzahni scenes from BL2 and I read the quote about the "world that feeds the world" and I have a couple of questions about it.
41. Is this the place where the Ignika needs to be used?
52. Also is the place where it needs to go/be used the most damaged site in the universe?
63. If yes to number 1, will we see this place before 2008 ends?
74. When will we see the Makuta Karzahni battle? This year?
85. When will the Nuva go to Karzahni's domain to retrieve the Inika's old masks?
9Do you mind if I post any of these questions?
10Thanks,
11Vash
121) Yes 132) Yes 143) I can't discuss future storyline 154) Yes 165) This year 176) No
1my guess is that the world thats feeds the world is that upper world thing where mata nui(the island)is
1WHOA, i think wejust learned something big
3Yeah maybe, I was thinking Metru Nui because it is the island that gives electricity to all the other islands. But then agian, it's supposed to be the most damaged island, and I don't think Metru Nui is that damaged as of now.

4I asked him about Metru-Nui, and he said no.
5I think the Kanohi Ignika needs to be used on Mata-Nui (the island). After all, after the Bohrok are released it will be probably "the most damaged place in the universe".
6-TOoMN-
1After the Toa of the Green, alot of people started wondering how many types of Toa you could fit in the storyline. I was wondering... how many of these could potentially become elements?
2-Electricity 3-Acid 4-Magma 5-Corrosion 6-Courage/Fear 7-Sand 8-Poison (possibly including healing medicine as well) 9-Elasticity 10-Rahi Control 11-Insect Control 12-Stasis Field 13-Adaptation 14-Power Increasing (like Dalu's Chargers) 15-Sleep 16-Confusion
17Any reasons why these "elements" wouldn't work?
18-VK-
19The only one that seems likely to me is electricity -- a lot of these are just too "micro" to be Toa elements. I see Toa as being avatars of the fundamental forces of the universe -- stasis field, elasticity, things like that, are not fundamental forces, they are more like super powers. Those are the sorts of things you would have masks for, but not elemental Toa powers.
20Hm. I thought "Poison" or "Elixir" or whatever would be a good power, but meh.
21As for the world that feeds this world thing... it seemed pretty strongly implied in Dark Destiny... it's not exactly new, just confirmed. Also, it can't be Mata Nui the island... as there were no Matoran there to send to Karzahni... the biomechanical beings weren't meant to be on the surface
22And unless G.S. Mata Nui dies in 2008 and Bionicle ends with an explosion, we'll see it soon... I don't see why Greg finds that to be a secret.
23-VK-
1Hey, Greg,I hope you don't mind answering some questions for me about the place the ignika is supposed to be used...i think it was the world that feeds thw world thing... 21)is this place accesible by normal means?(walking, flying, nothing magiclike)
32)Are there inhabitants there?
43)is there a OoMN member stationed there?
54)is there a BoM member there?
65)have we heard/seen of this place yet?
7Sorry, can't discuss anything related to this setting yet.
8Awww
he won't say nothing...1Questions normal, answers bold, comments italic.
2In a recent post in the OGD, you said that the Ignika needs to be used in the "world that feeds the world" that is mentioned in BL2.
31. Has this place ever been mentioned other than in the above quote in the books? 41) No 5Hm, so that makes it a little harder to guess... XD
62. Have we ever (as the reader) been to this place? 72) No 8I didn't expect so.
93. Is it as easily accessible as finding Mata-Nui himself? 10(I believe that you stated that he is easy to access, just not easy to find) 113) No 12Dang it: I thought I was on to something...
134. Is it anywhere near Mata-Nui's current locaton? 144) Can't answer it 15Darn, I guess that is digging too deep...
165. Has Mata-Nui ever personally been there? 175) Can't answer it 18See #4
196. Have any of the characters we have met been there? 206) Yes 21Oooooo la la: Theories anyone?
227. Is the place Artakha? 237) No 24Just wanted to clarify
25Thank you soooo much for your time:

4Remember that in BL2 the cripple Matoran says that they made the Nuva´s canisters on the World the Feeds the World, so likely the Nuva have been there
5Actually, come to think of it, the Matoran cripple has been there. Considering that, I don't know; Greg does try to mislead us sometimes, and this might be one of those cases. We're tossing out theories on which big important character was there, when someone with a bit part has already admitted to it. I wouldn't necessarily put too much into Greg's answer here.
1QUOTE 2Hello Mr F: Long time no see biggrin.gif
31. Is Nocturn really strong? I mean who did he break his island?or is there another way he did it?
42. Will we ever see a toa of stone create stone from their hands without requiring a source?
53. Will your boss disagree with the idea of a toa of stone created stone with requiring a source?
64. Does makuta control umbrakenisis?
71) Yes, he is 82) It's impossible for me to answer an "ever" question, because it encompasses the whole rest of BIONICLE's existence. A lot of things could happen over that time. 93) No 104) We have never shown that, no, at least not in terms of controlling shadows cast by other peopl

1Hi Mr. Farshtey
21. Is Ahkmou trying to blend in with the Metru Nui Matoran or is he hiding?
32. Is Jovan originally form an island we know?
43. When Voya Nui and Mahri Nui were joined were the considered one island or just one land mass? If one island, what was the name?
54. Will (or could) the storyline ever have it's main focus on non-canister sets?
65. Is Brown for Po' gone?
7That's it for now, 8Over and out, bionicle_fan_nuva
91) Ahkmou is back at work. As far as he knows, Makuta is dead, so there is no point in working against the Matoran. 102) No 113) One land mass 124) I doubt it. Canister sets make up the bulk of BIONICLE sales, so not focusing on them wouldn't make much sense 135) That decision will get made based on how yellow sells. 14~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 15Ah man: Greg could have done an awesome plot twist with Ahkmou, so epilogue in Time Trap is worthless:

3Ah man: Greg could have done an awesome plot twist with Ahkmou, so epilogue in Time Trap is worthless:
4Worthless? That epilogue explained why Ahkmou was working for Makuta in MNOLG. He infected and almost killed half of Po-Koro by selling tainted Kolhii balls. Before that, he sold "Lucky Ghekula" which hurt the Matoran.
5Now, however, he's fine. Although, Greg did once say some creatures are just bad by nature, and Ahkmou is just a creep... If there's room in the future, I'm sure Ahkmou'll pop back up.

1Dear Mr. Farstey, 2This is my first time PMing, so please tell me if I make a mistake. 3I have a few questions involving the impending battle between Karzahni and Makuta:
4#1 Will we see Makuta's worst fear (Via Karzahni's power)?
5#2 Could you give us a hint as to the location?
6I also have one about the Mahri: 7#3 Will the Toa Mahri be something similar to the Inika as the Toa Hordika to the Metru?
4#1 Will we see Makuta's worst fear (Via Karzahni's power)?

Nice topic by the way ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 2I didn't understand that Berg, do you mean you think it's the place that the Mata came form?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 2I didn't understand that Berg, do you mean you think it's the place that the Mata came form?1Mr. Farstey, I'm just wondering, I recently saw the names of the 2007 titans. (NOTE: these are not spoilers because there was an article telling that the titan names were on toywiz.com.) The names are Gadunka, Hydraxon,(i named myself after this guy cause it sounds cool) and Maxilo and Spinax. Do you which, If any, of them is the pit jailer?

1Here's some ?s from a couple days ago. 
Hi Mr. Farshtey,
2I've just got some questions for u about this year. 31. Was Nocturn with the Barakki when/b4 they were banished to the pit? 42. Although in his description it says he wasn't mutated, was Nocturn altered at all and did he gain or did he already have the ability to breath underwater? 53. Does Nocturn keep the MoLI safe for the Barakki (does he have it right now)? 64. Did the Barakki have armies b4 they were banished & if so, were their armies made up of land-based creatures? 75. If I were to pre-order Jaller Mahri and Hydraxon (a titan) soon, do you know when they would be shipped? 86. Do you know where I could buy squid ammo? (they don't carry them at TARGET or ToysRus) 97. Do you know where I could get Nocturn besides Wal-Mart? 108. Will the Toa from the 1st Toa team that I heard was gonna be in this year's story-line be avalible as a set? If I have any more ?s I'll PM you. Thanks,
11P-6
121) No 132) No. He was always amphibious 143) He does not have it at this point, he doesn't get it until summer 154) They were made up of ex-Dark Hunters, Matoran, and other mercenaries from other species 165) Most likely July or August. 176) LEGOshop.com 187) Nocturn is a Wal-Mart store exclusive. 198) Yes

1Q5 is a spoiler I beleive. I would take that out by editing.
1Here is what I have learned from Greg over the past few days. I hope it's usefull:
21. I know that the BoM had nothing to do with the creation of the Bohrok.(That's what led to the Fohrok incident. How exactly did Makuta get his hands on the Bohrok signal flare? 32. The Bohrok's purpose still remains a mystery. It involves clearing the Island of Mata Nui without harming a living being, like a Matoran. What is their pupose? Is it any of these? 4Clear the island to create a space for an OoMN base. 5Clear the island to create a space for Mata Nui to appear. 6Clear the island to expand Metru Nui to a two island city to increase Mata Nui's strength. 73. Whereas the Bohrok won't go out of the way to harm someone, the Bohrok Kal will. Why? 84. I noticed that the Nuva Cube is made of all the Nuva Symbols, with the holes connecting on each side. So I drew the Cube out flat, then connected the symbols. The only problem I had was with the Onua Nuva symbol, which I had to bend slightly to make it fit. Do the connected symbols make a picture if connected as on the Cube? If not, do they make a picture if connected in a different way? If they do make a picture, what is it of? 95. The Lehvak Kal said that with the Nuva Energies, the Bahrag didn't need the swarms. It said with that power, the Bohrok Kal could "Return Mata Nui to the Before-Time." Does this refer to the time before he fell asleep or before the time he was created? 106. What is the exact connection between Metru Nui productivity and Mata Nui's health? Does it have to do with the city's power plant feeding him energy? 117. From what I read, the Red Star has a lot in the "It's Not This" category. What does it have in the "It's One of These" category. 128. What is the exact number of Makutas in the Bionicle World? 139. Does a Makuta have an actual name, other than Makuta, or the Makuta of ___________? If so, what is our favorite Makuta's name? 1410. Who did the Kanohi Suletu belong to before Kongu? And please, I don't want the answer "A Toa who died trying to get into or died in Karzahni. Does Kongu's Suletu end up with Krakua? 1511. Would Gadunka be the 300 foot long problem referred to by Ehlek? Or is it the more probable Crystal Serpant? 1612. Could you please describe the Barraki before their mutation, pleeeease? 1713. Did Makuta put Mata Nui to sleep to spare him pain, as he told Takanuva? Did he do it because he felt bad that his former master was in pain, or did he do it as a deal between him and the Brotherhood, so that they would back him up in his evil. 1814. Will tthe Piraka show up into mutated later on in the storyline? 1915. How do the Inika get new masks as Toa Mahri? 2016. Will the other creatures of the pit make an appearence later on in the storyline? 2117. Why does Carapar command Pit War Tortoises?
221) The fact that they didn't create doesn't mean they don't know what they're for or how to activate them. The BOM probably has a better understanding of the universe than anyone else does. 232) None of the above. 243) Kal's mission is to free the Bahrag. Get in the way of that mission or pose a threat to it, and they will harm you. Bohrok are the same way -- get in their way and they will deal with you. 254) I don't have this information. 265) He was referring to the island of Mata Nui, not the Great Spirit Mata Nui 276) I can't answer this 287) Nothing, because I can't discuss it 298) Can't answer it 309) Not something I have worried about 3110) Who it belonged to is not relevant to the story, so it is not something I am worrying about at this point. 3211) Neither. It's a 300 foot long venom eel created by the Mask of Life in Book 6. Gadunka doesn't come into the story until summer and crystal serpents can't live underwater. 3312) No 3413) None of the above. The coma was a result of Makuta's attack on Mata Nui, which was sparked by Makuta's jealousy and hatred. 3514) It depends on what kind of room I have. With the reduced book schedule, it is harder to reintroduce old characters. 3615) I cannot discuss anything having to do with the Toa Mahri, it's too early. 3716) Since they aren't sets, I doubt it 3817) Why not? Why let them go to waste if they are a potentially powerful resource?
391. Will the Toa Nuva run into Voporak? 402. From what I've caught, Makuta (of Metru Nui) is the Antidermis. If this is true, then did Zaktan find this out and not tell the others? Did Makuta charge him with getting the Mask of Life for him, and that's why he took getting the mask so seriously? 413. Is the energy that makes up a Makuta considered Antidermis? 424. If the Antidermis is Makuta (of Metru Nui), then now that he is realesed, will he go back to his armor, or will he create new armor? 435. Based of #2 of last time: Is the Bohrok's purpose to destroy Mata Nui ENTIRELY, making a hole over Metru Nui? 446. I noticed that the Inika masks are alive. Do they have the personalities of the Toa (or Matoran) that wore them previously? 457. The Barraki believe that any being that relies on a Kanohi mask has a crutch. The Order of Mata Nui planned for the Brotherhood of Makuta's fall, and probably did so for the Toa, also. Are the Kanohi masks the loophole the OoMN needed? And the Barraki figured this out? 468. So the Mask of Life curses anyone that has it that it does not like or don't deserve it. So why did the Great Beings fear it?
471) Don't know yet 482) Zaktan did not tell the others it was Makuta, and Makuta inspired all six to want the mask 493) The Piraka labelled it antidermis 504) His armor is shattered, so he can't go back to it 515) No. Their mission is to scrape it down to barren ground as it once was 526) No. They are sentient, not sapient 537) No 548) No. It curses anyone who touches it who is not DESTINED to do so
55This is the info that I've got.

21. I know that the BoM had nothing to do with the creation of the Bohrok.(That's what led to the Fohrok incident. How exactly did Makuta get his hands on the Bohrok signal flare? 32. The Bohrok's purpose still remains a mystery. It involves clearing the Island of Mata Nui without harming a living being, like a Matoran. What is their pupose? Is it any of these? 4Clear the island to create a space for an OoMN base. 5Clear the island to create a space for Mata Nui to appear. 6Clear the island to expand Metru Nui to a two island city to increase Mata Nui's strength. 73. Whereas the Bohrok won't go out of the way to harm someone, the Bohrok Kal will. Why? 84. I noticed that the Nuva Cube is made of all the Nuva Symbols, with the holes connecting on each side. So I drew the Cube out flat, then connected the symbols. The only problem I had was with the Onua Nuva symbol, which I had to bend slightly to make it fit. Do the connected symbols make a picture if connected as on the Cube? If not, do they make a picture if connected in a different way? If they do make a picture, what is it of? 95. The Lehvak Kal said that with the Nuva Energies, the Bahrag didn't need the swarms. It said with that power, the Bohrok Kal could "Return Mata Nui to the Before-Time." Does this refer to the time before he fell asleep or before the time he was created? 106. What is the exact connection between Metru Nui productivity and Mata Nui's health? Does it have to do with the city's power plant feeding him energy? 117. From what I read, the Red Star has a lot in the "It's Not This" category. What does it have in the "It's One of These" category. 128. What is the exact number of Makutas in the Bionicle World? 139. Does a Makuta have an actual name, other than Makuta, or the Makuta of ___________? If so, what is our favorite Makuta's name? 1410. Who did the Kanohi Suletu belong to before Kongu? And please, I don't want the answer "A Toa who died trying to get into or died in Karzahni. Does Kongu's Suletu end up with Krakua? 1511. Would Gadunka be the 300 foot long problem referred to by Ehlek? Or is it the more probable Crystal Serpant? 1612. Could you please describe the Barraki before their mutation, pleeeease? 1713. Did Makuta put Mata Nui to sleep to spare him pain, as he told Takanuva? Did he do it because he felt bad that his former master was in pain, or did he do it as a deal between him and the Brotherhood, so that they would back him up in his evil. 1814. Will tthe Piraka show up into mutated later on in the storyline? 1915. How do the Inika get new masks as Toa Mahri? 2016. Will the other creatures of the pit make an appearence later on in the storyline? 2117. Why does Carapar command Pit War Tortoises?
221) The fact that they didn't create doesn't mean they don't know what they're for or how to activate them. The BOM probably has a better understanding of the universe than anyone else does. 232) None of the above. 243) Kal's mission is to free the Bahrag. Get in the way of that mission or pose a threat to it, and they will harm you. Bohrok are the same way -- get in their way and they will deal with you. 254) I don't have this information. 265) He was referring to the island of Mata Nui, not the Great Spirit Mata Nui 276) I can't answer this 287) Nothing, because I can't discuss it 298) Can't answer it 309) Not something I have worried about 3110) Who it belonged to is not relevant to the story, so it is not something I am worrying about at this point. 3211) Neither. It's a 300 foot long venom eel created by the Mask of Life in Book 6. Gadunka doesn't come into the story until summer and crystal serpents can't live underwater. 3312) No 3413) None of the above.

1Gots the identities of the two in that big one-on-one fight in Prisoners of the Pit Greg promised us:
2'Tis been a while so I thought I'd ask some questions.
31. Is BionicleStory.com where things like the Makuta-Karzahni battle and the Toa Nuva's mission will take place?
42. On the Barraki log on the official site, it says that Takadox reports seeing a fish so ugly it reminded him of Makuta. I assume this has more meaning in the story than just a simple Makuta fish or something? Doesn't seem worth mentioning seeing a fish in the ocean on the site, unless it's something important. But that's just me.
53. Which do you think is more fun to write about -- large-scale fights, like army vs. army, or smaller, one-on-one or six-on-six battles?
64. I read that Bionicle Legends#7 will contain one of your coolest one-on-one fights thus far. Would this be Nocturn vs. the Pit jailer?
75. What's the title for Bionicle Legends#7, anyways?
86. Are Ehlek's claws like, handheld, or are they his natural hands/fingers?
97. In the "Creeps from the Deep" mini-movie/vision, I noticed Takadox kinda cocking his head from side to side like a metronome. Is this part of his hypnosis?
108. Since the Toa Nuva will eventually be the center of the story again at some point, do you think LEGO will release upgraded Nuva, like more points of articulation, or do you think we'll see completely new forms?
119. I keep getting the two mixed up -- will we see the first Toa EVER in the atlas and a member of the first TEAM as a store exclusive, or vice versa?
1210. The "world that feeds the world", I heard, is where the Mask of Life must be used. Will this be the main 2008 location? 1310b. This is where the Toa Mata's canisters were made, right? (Can't remember exactly what the Matoran in Karzahni said.) 1410c. Is this also where the Toa Mata were launched from? 1510d. Will this place be listed in the Atlas?
1611. Speaking of the Atlas, will the Pit and Mahri Nui have the same entry?
17Thanks for taking the time to read through these:
181) I don't know what the plans are for that site, they haven't been shared with me. 192) I didn't write that, I don't think, so no idea what it refers to. 203) Smaller battles are easier to write. 214) Yup 225) Prisoners of the Pit 236) They are grafted onto him 247) The movie is a vision given to Dekar by the mask, so I wouldn't suggest taking it too literally 258) They basically cannot become the focus of the story unless we release new versions of the sets. The two go hand in hand. 269) The first thing 2710) I can't discuss where we are going in 2008 2810b) Yup 2910c) Can't answer it 3010d) No 3111) Yes
1Hi Mr. Farshtey, just a few things.
21. (I think this will be my last Q. on Ahkmou.) So the Turaga have forgiven him?
32. Will there be a combo model for Kalma, Pridak, and Takadox?
43. Why were the Inikas' canisters a flat-ish shape?
54. Are the gears gone for good (in sets)?
65. How did you (and the set deigners) decide to release the Hordika or the Visorak first? Because they were roughly around at the same time.
71) The Turaga's philosophy is keep your friends close, and your enemies closer. They prefer having Ahkmou where they can keep an eye on him;
82) Yes, in the March issue of LEGO BrickMaster
93-5) Asking the wrong person. I have nothing to do with set design, canister design, or when sets are released. I do story only.
