14)Will Takanuva pop up in the summer story or winter story?
24) Both. Web in winter, books and comics in summer


3Comics, huh? I thought they usually focused comics on the current sets they are trying to sell.

4Which implies...

5That is true, Now I tink Takanuva has a chance to appear as a set. I hope it is a corrpted version of him, caused by the makuta dropping tons of shadow leeches on him.

6Yes, I could definitely see that happening. Anybody want to bet that we're going to see our first Toa of Shadow set?

1Just got these from Greg. I forgot the Kakama and Photok :unsure: Hello, Mr Farshtey. 1) Are the Matoran the only race that absorbs their energy through their hands?2) In the pre-Catalycsm Pit, how did all the prisoners there 'eat'? Did Hydraxon and the Maxilos robots give them food or something?3) Can the Phantoka Makuta channel their Rahkshi vision powers(like Accuracy) through their Shadow Matoran's eyes?4) Because Vamprah was the one Matoro saw and was likely the closest, was he affected more than the others?5) Are the Mutagen-infected characters(Brutaka, Takadox and Carapar) weaker on land because of their breathing equipment?6) Can Shadow Leeches move on their own?7) Would a Toa of Rahi Control be possible?8) Can the Toa change the attributes of their Adaptive Armor by using their elemental powers? For example, if Kopaka shot ice at Lewa, would Lewa's armor respond by becoming more resistant to cold?9) Is Pohatu the slowest of the Phantoka?Thanks again.1) No. Pretty much everything in BIONICLE can absorb energy through physical contact, it's just that some species don't know that.2) Yes, that is what prison guards do.3) Yes4) No. Any Makuta who was in the air at the time of the explosion was blinded, there was no difference in degree. 5) I wouldn't say physically weaker, no. 6) Yes7) Not sure. We usually have Toa able to create their own element as well as control it, and Rahi control is not something you could create. It may be too limited a power to match up with fire, ice, etc.8) No. The armor adapts to the environment around you, not just one limited exposure.9) Not something I have considered, since he has both Photok and the Mask of Speed to augment his flying
2YEAH photok is fast and pohatu as well, that's a cool team.(I don't like the new kakama and the orange colour scheme for pohatu though)

1Hey Greg, I just have some questions regarding certain Matoran types:
2#1: Apart from the Toa canister maker on Karzahni, were there any other Matoran types there, apart from the original 6 breeds?
3#2: Same for both Voya Nui and Mahri Nui.
4#3: Considering that the aforementioned canister maker is an Av-Matoran and is currently in Metru Nui, can we expect an encounter between him and Takanuva?
5#4: Ok the last question is off-topic from the other three but I'll ask anyway. Since the First Toa and the Toa Nuva were created instead of transformed from Matoran, would they transform into Turaga like the Toa Metru or would they turn into something different?
6Thank you for your time :)


71) Quite possibly 82) No 93) I don't plan to spend a lot of time on Metru Nui in 2008, so no 104) Yes, they can turn into Turaga


11Regarding the Karzahni Matoran, now that they're in Metru Nui are they going to stay there or will they eventually move back to their original homes?


12Well, if you had been sent to Karzahni from your homeland, would you be eager to go back to the place that shipped you off again? I wouldn't.


13Good point, so can we expect Metru Nui to have some new metru then? To accommodate the new non-original six type Matoran?


14No. There is no available land to build new metru on.


15So where will the new Matoran live then?


16Within the existing districts, until they make a decision on whether they want to stay there or settle somewhere else.


17Hmm good point. Wait another question; wouldn't a Toa of Earth be able to raise more landmass? Nuparu's back in Metru-Nui so wouldn't that be possible?


18That would take quite a lot of EE... and why can't they just inhabit extra areas?

19They would be weak, compared to other Matoran... 20And back in 2004, they told us that there was a Proto wall underwater covering the landmass of Metru Nui so that seawater wouldn't come in though the Archives.. (Back during the Krahka incident, for those who don't remember.) They would have to expand that wall to create more landmass and expand the Archives..

4This was, to me, rather predictable, but awesome nonetheless. I can't wait to see what he'll look like. ^_^
#11487
1Haha, I knew it. ^_^
2Considering that they brought back the old 2003 Kraahkan with Icarax, maybe Takanuva will include the 2003 Avokhii but in the new gold (like seen on Brutaka). Lego has the occasion to use again that colour after no 2007 set featured it.

111) How many Makuta are alive?
211) Unknown at present -- at least 10



Nihilism
38. How many Makuta are we going to see? 8 (Mutran, Icarax, 3 summer makuta, Antroz, Chirox, and Vamprah)?
48) 9, counting Spiriah

5Mmmm Greg said that the Makuta who are alive are at least 10 and in 2008 we will see 9 counting Spiriah. But who is the The last one? 6Edit: That right. thanks Shakar

1Well, I haven't read the most recent posts here, but I think a few of these might be interesting... For Number 1a, I think he misread "Takua" for "Tanma".
2Hi, Greg. I've got a few questions that have been buzzing around in my head for a while that I would like to have answers to, so thanks in advance for the answers. :) 31. Do all Av-Matoran have certain powers like Tanma, Solek and Photok do? 41) Yes, but the powers only manifest themselves when they are physically linked to a Toa. The rest of the time, they have no access to them. 51a. If so, what was Takua's? 61a) Acting as a living battery for Lewa's Midak. 71b. The insane Karzahni Av-Matoran's? 81b) Since he is not riding around on a Toa, he has no access to a power.
92. The Av-Matoran powers--are they all things that Takanuva could do? 102) Potentially 112a. If not, does an Av-Matoran retain the power they had as a Matoran when they become a Toa (for example, would Photok be able to run at the speed of light if he became a Toa, even though Takanuva can't)? 122a) Not necessarily, no -- see the answer to #1. To do it without a Toa linkage would require extensive training.
133. Can all Shadow Matoran fire shadow bolts or just the ones who used to be Av-Matoran (in other words, can Vican fire shadow bolts like Kirop, Gavla and Radiak can)? 143) All shadow Matoran can
154. The Phantoka Makuta are blind; you said this is so the Toa Nuva actually stand a chance against them. The summer Makuta don't have all 42 Rahkshi powers; is this for the same reason? 164) Story-wise, yes
175. Apparently the Phantoka Makuta see through the Shadow Matoran's eyes--are they just seeing-eye dogs for them or do they actually see what the Matoran are seeing? 185) They see what the Matoran are seeing
196. The insane Av-Matoran is on Metru Nui now. Will he recognize Takanuva? 206) I doubt it. If you had only known Takanuva as Takua, would you recognize him in his Toa form? I wouldn't.
21Thanks again in advance:

#11491
1Good day Mr. Farshtey. I would like to ask you some questions again :
21) Is Icarax also blinded by the Ignika´s unleashed power? 32) Will Icarax appear in any book´s or will he be only in online serials? 43) Will we learn more about Mata Nui´s appearence and location next year? (I´m sorry if you can´t answer it) 54) Why does Mutran have his matoran companion? He is not blind is he? Has this fact a story-line importance?

6Thanks in advance :)


71) No, he wasn't in the corte when that happened 82) He does appear in Book 10 and in comic 12 93) Can't answer it 104) Vican is more of a lab assistant than anything else

For example can someone put a mask of stretgh into a zamor sphere, lauch it and the target whould be stronger.If possible if the Ignika eregies were put into a zamor sphere , what would happen? 112. Can you put horidika vemon into a Zamor sphere? 123. Do the names of masks mean their power in matoran laugauge, for example does Ignika mean life, does kraakan mean shadow, does tryanna mean reamition, does Faxon mean kindred. 134.If a toa of electrisity put a electrical current through a crodak missile, whould it explode. 145. If a toa of Iron did a nova blast, what whould happen? 156. If a Toa of Magitisim did a nova blast what whould happen? 167.You once said that Axonn had powers that he did'nt use against Brutaka becuase he could dodge them.In power play , Axonn gave Jaller a specail Zamor Sphere , that had the power to freze the time around the targit, does this mean that Axonn has these power?::?::? 178. Is Downfall in stores??? 189 I heard that Antroz wears a mask of curroption, is this true? 1910 Is it true that vezon,roodaka,brutaka,sphirah,takadox, and carapar are going to form a team to fight the brotherhood?
20Please respond soon.

211) No 222) Doubtful 233) Yes 244) No idea. Why would you want to do that? You can make it explode just by firing it at something. 255) You would have sharp shards of metal flying everyplace 266) A massive wave of magnetic force 277) Yes, Axonn has a stasis ability. He wasn't freezing time, he was freezing motion. 288) In some stores, yes 2910) Yes, that was in my blog

301) ahhh 312) what do you mean doubtful? 324) If someone was firing a cordak at a Toa of Electricty she could make it explode before it hit here. 339) There's no awsner. 34Thanks:

352) Well, we have seen energy put in a zamor sphere, and gas put in a zamor sphere, but we have not seen a solid put in a zamor sphere. 364) Well, lightning can do that to pretty much anything. If you throw a tree at me, I can explode it with a bolt of lightning 379) Correct
389) your not going to tell me , are you?

39I did tell you -- you asked if it was true that Antroz wore a Mask of Corruption, and I said "correct."

#11495
1The toa Ignika is a physical form created by the Ignika, right? So is its "brain" in the mask or in the toa part? In other words, if the mask was removed, would the toa just slump forwards, a lifeless shell, or would it continue functioning by itself?
2Thanks in advance 3Dmmcg


4Body can't exist without the mask, because it is the mask's power that maintains it


5Quite interesting...
#11496
1QUOTE 2Hi Greg, can you answer these questions please? 31) I recall you having a quote about a Makuta being able to lock someone into one form. Plus you've said Mutran & Chirox are mutaters, so could this be the power of one of their masks? 41a) Can you give me the whole quote? 51) It's not a mask power, no. 62) When will you start the web serial with Brutaka's order team? 72) January 83) Who is the strongest of the Winter Makuta? 93a) How about of the Summer Makuta? 103) There is really no difference in actual strength among Makuta, the main difference is in skills -- some have used certain powers a lot and gotten good at them, while others have done so with other powers. But they are all in protosteel armor and they all have 40 Rahkshi powers. 114) Which is faster the Ussanui or the sea sled? 124a) Is the Toa Ignika's board faster than the sea sled? 134) No idea 144a) No idea 155) Who of the winter Phantoka came up with the idea to use shadow matoran as eyes? 165) It was something they stumbled on after being blinded.

3First off, Carapar will probably use a breathing apparatus similar to Ehlek's to go above water (as will Takadox for he is also a part of the team) Second, its Vezon that's in the team. Not Vezok. And third, I'm sure the OOMN will just spirit Roodaka away from the Toa Hagah.

#11502
11a) Now that 2007 is almost over the "Invasion" storyline becomes more and more irrelevant (I believe). So how are the chances we might get a summary of what has happened inside the Cord; beyond what was revealed in the Encyclopedia? 21b) Any new "Invasion" storyline you want to reveal to me? :lol: 31a) I really don't have the spare time to do this. I am in the midst of both 2008 and 2009 BIONICLE work. 4Sad..... but he did not say there was nothing more to reveal

52) Does MoMN want to take personal revenge on Takanuva? 62) I don't think it's way high on his priority list right now. 7I thought making Takanuva a Toa of Shadows would be pretty much a revenge.... there goes my theory.

83) Was the Ignika-Countdown an ability it had from the start or was this something the story team added due to the change of schedule for 2008 and beyond last year? 93) It was added to explain why the mask is silver in 2008, instead of gold, also to explain some stuff planned for post-2008. 10I fear a very sad end for 2008....

114a) As the abandoned role for Ahkmou in 2008 is concerned. Did the BoM want to make him a "Toa" although he had not the destiny? 124b) If so, did you plan to get him grip on the Nui Stone? 134) The discussion of this never went that far because plans for the set got axed early on 14Again I thought the Makuta wanted to get grip on a Toa of Shadows...
155a) So let me get this straight. After the Av-Matoran were created they populated the Universe Core and did their job. After it was completed they moved up into those underground cities and lived there in secret until some of them where spread across the universe during the time Slip? 165a) Yes
175b) Is there a significance on how the Order performed the Timeslip? 185b) Not really, no
195c) Obviously the Av-Matoran are back in the Core itself. Did they have to do their job again because of the damage the GC caused? 205c) No, they aren't there by choice 21I guess the Makuta forced them out of their hidings...
225d) Connected to this: The Av-Matoran are not really back in the core, but can they perform their job from their newly created villages as well without being on the surface of the Core since it is the Swamp right now? 235d) They are in the core. The entirety of Karda Nui is the core, not just the ground.

246) Even the reawakened Great Spirit cannot make the countdown stop? Or would his coming back make up for the Makuta being at the core? 256) It comes down to the balance of the universe. If Mata Nu is awake but the universe is still way out of control, then the countdown doesn't stop. 26Uhm... but would him just waking up bring the Universe enough into balance?

277) If the masterplan of the Makuta relies so much on the right timing, how can Icarax believe he can achieve his goal much quicker? Or doesn't he believe in MoMN's plan at all? 287) He doesn't believe in MOMN's plan. His idea is to simply kill off anyone who opposes you and seize power, not to trick people out of it.

298) Is there any particular reason why exactly those 6 Makuta (the canister ones) where sent to the Universe Core (It's obvious Mutran is there because of the Shadow leeches and other mutations and Icarax because he wants to seize power)? What qualifies them to do this job? 308) Well, we don't know how many BOM members there are in the universe. It may be that this is the majority of the group and it's an "all hands on deck" situation. 31Makes sense

329) When the Ignika turns black, will it suck out the life from any being simultaneously or is there a order in which life is sucked out during those few seconds? 339) Everything at once 34Again goodbye to a theory on how the Makuta do their plan.

3510a) Something I did not get last time: Would the state of all Av-Matoran being turned to Shadow-Matoran have the same effect than having them killed? 3610a) Basically, yes 37Interesting.....
3810b) In general, would this effect (whatever it is) be helpful for the masterplan of the Makuta? 3910b) The creation of shadow Matoran is a sidelight - it's insurance against other Av-Matoran becoming Toa of Light. 40And nothing more? I guess the BoM would not do such things with great effort unless it is likely there will be more Toa of Light around.
4111a) I hope this is not a question you would not like to answer until 2008 but: What is the main reason the Makuta fight the Nuva at all in the Core? The Makuta want Mata Nui to be awakened and can't stop them doing so. 4211a) But the Makuta want to control when and how Mata Nui is awakened. And that means controlling when and how the Nuva do it.
4311b) Is it mainly because the Makuta need the Av-Matoran and just want to "scare the Nuva off" to have it easier? 4411c) Or would the Makuta not fight at all if the Nuva (who don't have the overview about what's going on *ironic, since the Nuva are the ones who are not blind*) did not attack them? 4511b & c) See answer to 11a).

1I have a few questions. I understand you might not be able to awnser all of them, but please try.
21-What are the new makuta mask powers and mask names? 31a-Antroz? 41b-Vampra? 51c-Chirox? 61d-Mutran? 71e-Icarax?(I bet it's shadows/kraakan)
82-How about the toa? 92a-Lewa? 102b-Kopaka? 112c-Pohatu? 122d-Ignika?(life/ignika right) 132e-Krakua?
143-I think Krakua has the Sluetu. If so, will it have a new form, not the organic form?
154-Is MoMN going to be in 2008
165-Do the matoran have mask names and powers?

15c) Obviously the Av-Matoran are back in the Core itself. Did they have to do their job again because of the damage the GC caused? 25c) No, they aren't there by choice 3I guess the Makuta forced them out of their hidings...

4Actually, I think the Great Cataclysm did. Greg said the cities are on fallen stalactites, and the stalactites would have had to be connected to the ceiling at some point, and didn't the Av-Matoran live in cities in the ceiling of the UC? So when the Great Cataclysm happened, the stalactites fell, and the cities on the ones that remained upright stayed intact. That would explain the fact that they aren't there willingly. :P

1I don't know but I think bad guys can actually have remorse.



2They can. CAN. If they want to. They won't ALL want to, though. And Greg has stated that there is no good left in Makuta. Besides, having the main villain turn good and save the heroes is done way too much in stories. And while it may have looked like he was saving the mahri, he was really trying to save mata nui, cause his main plan needs to have mata-nui alive. (He did however have a backup-plan.) And his saving mata-nui was part of his scheme to rule the universe. His plan states that mata-nui would be allowed to wake up, and that then a reign of evil would start for the makuta, and it would never end. Dosn't sound like a good guy to me.
3In my last batch I forgot to ask: how do Brutaka, Takadox, and Carapar go on the mission against the BOM, if they can't breathe air? Do the OOMN have something that allows them to breathe air?


4How did Ehlek survive on the surface all those years before the Barraki were sent to the Pit?

5Ehleks breathing apparatus is back, but Brutaka, Takadox, and Carapar are using it now:

1Hey Greg, I sent you some questions 5 days ago, but I think they were swallowed up by the server or something... 2Anyways, here they are: 31. Spoilers edited out 42. I was looking at the Rahkshi powers earlier, and I noticed that Makutas have at least six elemental powers: Gravity, Lightning (both electricity and chain lightning), Sonics, Plasma, Magnetism, Plant control, and Shadow. Could they combine them to form a protodermis cage like six Toa can? 53. I read on the OGD that Takanuva is coming back as a set (I got very excited, as shown in my sig... :lol: ). Will he have the same mask (shape) as before? 63a. If not the same shape, will it at least have the same powers? 73b. Usually when an extra Toa set comes out he has something he is riding on (Ussanui, Kikanalo, and Sea sled). Will the '08 Takanuva also ride something? 83c. Is there a reason that there will be two extra Toa coming out in one year? 93d. Won't kids think that Takanuva is a Toa Nuva when they see his name has nuva in it, especially because he is coming out in the same year?
10Thanks in advance

111) Spoilers edited out 122) No, because one Makuta can't use six powers at once. 133-3b) Can't answer it 143c) Well, 2008 is Toa vs. Makuta, so who should the titan sets be besides Toa and Makuta? 153d) Some might, if they don't follow the story and know who he is. But if they don't follow the story, there's not much we can do about that. He was called Takanuva in 2003, so it's not like he's a brand new character, and that's his name, so we have to make do.

16Stuff I just got.

17I think this ruins my theory of Takanuva becoming a Toa of Shadow...

11. On a scale of 1-10, 10 being a Toa Nuva and 1 being a matoran, how would you rate the elemental abilities of turaga and general toa? (Use decimals if you want)
22. What are the limits of a turaga's elemental powers?
32a. Could a turaga perform a small nova blast, using his/her small stockpile of elemental energy (For example, a turaga of ice freezing a rahi attacking his village solid, something a toa could to with little to no effort).
43. Have we seen any part of Mata-Nui's physical form yet since 2001?
54. Just how badly would Takanuva's nova blast hurt a full powered Makuta in his armor (such as Icarax).
65. Assuming that Mata Nui would smite the BoM upon his awakening, would Spiriah share their fate, even if he proves a valuable ally to the OoMN and does everything in his power against the brotherhood?
76. Does Spiriah know the basics of MoMN's plot?
87.Could a Toa wield the Krakahn without becoming evil, and could a Makuta/other shadow being wield the Avohkii without becoming good.
98. Did Takanuva get to see into MoMN's mind when they were merged and vice versa, or do they have no real memory of the event.
109. How did Takanuva get revived after being crushed by the door (This one has been bugging me for quite a while)?
1110. Are you planning on Onua saving Lewa from something again as a running gag (comparable to the infected mask and krana incidents)? Personally I think it would be quite funny.
12101. Does the fact that the island of Mata-Nui turned upside-down appear as a face have any storyline significance whatsoever? I don't want specifics or anything. I just want to know if it means anything at all.


131) A normal Toa would be a 9, probably -- and a Turaga would be more like a 3. 142) As I have said in the past, if Tahu can light a bonfire, Vakama can light a candle. Their powers are small scale. 152a) No 163) I can't discuss this. 174) It would hurt him pretty badly 185) Yes, he would. He is only helping the OOMN out of fear for his own life, not because he is good at heart. 196) A little, not much 207) A Makuta would never wield the Mask of Light, because light is toxic to them. As for the Toa, it's like using the Dark Side of the Force -- it's inherently corrupting power. 218) They have no real memory of the event, because it was two minds merged into a new individual, same as a kaita is three minds forming a new individual 229) I didn't write the movie, so no idea what the screenwriter had in mind there. 2310) They aren't on the same team for most of '08, so probably not. 24101) I have had people mention that to me, it is not a resemblance I have noticed.

#11517
14. what advantage is there of tanma powering the midak instead of light? 24) You don't have to take light from Karda Nui to power it then


3It's basiclly faster for Lewa to fire his Midak. While the Kopaka and Pohatu have to recharge, by gaining energy from Karda Nui, Lewa's Midak is more "semi-automatic", it gains its energy straight from Tanma, recharging faster.
4edit: sorry if that appears a little off topic, just something no one commented on.

173c) looks like a big spoiler to me. Greg said that there will be (except 3 canisters) no more Makuta(s) in summer (you can find this quote somwhere around here)...Does this mean that the summer titans are...TOA ONLY??? I smell Krakua, the First Toa and Takanuva...

18Well, there's a 90% of Takanuva returning as set. The First Toa? Might be, although Greg said she won't be a set. Krakua? No way. He's a fan model, and LEGO has no right to release a fan model as a set.

29I don't smell Krakua since Greg has staed several times he can't be made a set, since it is a fan-created character:. 30First Toa would be wuite possible (if she is not the leader of the OoMN) and Takanuva is 100percen sure:
