1The Archivists used them?
1Notice the Greg said that they were used.
1Just want to point out that I never said you did.
1The Archivists never awoke the Bohrok. You can try all you want, but the only way to awaken one is to send the proper signal. I believe this was even shown in the books by the Toa Metru. Whenua smacked a Bohrok tube as hard as he could, and told them not to worry, they will never awaken.

2No, but I believe that they awoke some Krana, I remember one of the archivists mentioned a time when some (or one) of the Krana awoke... I'll have to re-read the Adventures series....
1Here are a couple questions- Some that you skipped over in my last PM and some new ones.
21. I don't have many posts yet, but the votes here might help you in your writing for the Makuta of Metru Nui.
31. I'd just like to know if you looked at it...
42. We know Kraata can have individual personalities, but can Shadow Leeches?
83. Have you come to a verdict?53. I know that officially the Kahu and Kewa were merged into the Gukko, but they appeared in a lot of places in their previous forms. (Both had sets of them, were in the MNOLG, etc.) 6Seeing as how they were clearly very different creatures, do you think it would be acceptable to say on the wiki that they're two separate breeds of Gukko? It would allow for several canon sources to make much more sense...
73) I'd have to think about it.
114. BS01 says that I can't say Gadunka live near Mata Nui because your answer wasn't "firm" enough... So, as a yeso question: Are there any Gadunka living in the shallower waters off Mata Nui/Metru Nui?94. Are there any Gadunka that live in shallower waters than the Pit? (I assume there must be, as the Toa Mahri wouldn't have a name for them otherwise...)104) I am sure they live elsewhere, yes
125. Just for clarification, are sets the most canon representation of characters? (As opposed to movies, comics, etc.)
136. Do Krana breathe? 146a. Assuming a Bohrok's Krana-shield is airtight, could a Bohrok of any type go underwater for a short amount of time?
157. I'm not sure if you can answer this, but MoMN's name isn't based off of a real word, is it? (Please not...?)
161) The only people who would be referring to him by his real name would be the other Makuta. The other Toa, Matoran etc. are not going to learn his true name. 172) I suppose, but they don't live that long, so it really doesn't matter. It's like worrying if a housefly has an individual personality. 183) Haven't had time 194) Sure, keeping in mind they are extremely tiny, and non-threatening creatures 205) I consider sets to take precedence over movies, yes. But in general, it is simply different artistic interpretations of the same characters. 216) Yup. Krana are also capable of slowing their own life processes down so they don't have to for a long time. 226a) We saw Tahnok survive underwater in the comic. 237) No, it's not.
1Some stuff I was wondering about
2I hope your evening has been good and I have some questions ranging from current things to just random stuff I thought about.
31.Can any Toa have a Suva? Like if Takanuva built a Suva could he start getting more masks?
42.If a Toa finds a mask lying around and they don't have a Suva must they take off there current mask and store their previous mask elsewhere. Like say Lesovikk found a Volitak in the ocean, he needs to take off his Faxon and store it somewhere on his own while he wears the Volitak right?
53.Doesn't Miserix know about Spiriah's failure on the Skadi? 63a.If yes why would Spiriah go risking his own life?
74.Does it matter what Kraata are used to make Shadow Leeches?
85.Does the Ignika's Skyboard have an official name or will it just be the "Skyboard"?
96.Did Mutran create "The Mountain" or did he find it?
107.Will we learn what started the feud between Chirox and Mutran?
118.You say Takanuva will begin to get lost because of his new powers. Is this similiar in some ways to Anakin Skywalker before he turns to the darkside?
121) Yes, any Toa can have a suva, but Takanuva could have more masks even without one. He would just have to carry them with him. 132) Correct, or carry it with him 143) No. Spiriah's project on Zakaz took place after Miserix was deposed. 154) No 165) Skyboard is its name 176) Do you mean the rock? He created it. 187) It is simply a professional rivalry 198) Actually, I don't think I said that. I said he will have darker impulses he will have to deal with. I won't compare him to Anakin because I like Takanuva and was never a big Anakin fan.

3There was certainly superstition about them; you might be remembering the Krana that was being held in a display case as seen in one of the mini-comics, however I don't know that a Krana with no direction would really do anything but make whoever is wearing it a motionless zombie.

4Nah, I'm talking about that time in the Adventures series when Whenua sees the destruction in the Archives and sees that the outer shell of a Krana case was cracked, then he thanks Mata Nui that it didn't wake up. I find it hard to believe that he would be scared of a Krana if they found it dormant doing nothing.
1the voyatoran weren't really touched by EP, the antidermis was.
2and toa stones have toa energy in them, not elemental energy. toa energy makes matoran become toa, elemental energy comes with the tribe the matoran is in.
3They were touched, but they weren't killed since it wasn't thei destiny for the Antidermis to infect them, so the EP destroyed the Antidermis.
1Hi GregF, I have some questions:
2About Takanuva 31.Takanuva has full control over both-Shadow and Light, correct?1a.If so, are his elemental energy reserves now smaller, because of the draining? 42.What will it be like if Tak went Nova? 53.The Avohkii doesn't make his light control stronger, does it? 6About the Av-Matoran 71.Can the Av-Matoran fly with their jetpacks? 82.What does this mean:"Av-Matoran are capable of channeling small amounts of light energy through their hands, like the Toa." 93.Are the light bolts laser like? 103a.Are the light bolts strong enough against a Makuta? 114.Do the Av-Matoran have reserves of elemental Light energy,like the Av-Toa?
12Tahnks in advance:
131) Yes 141A) Yes 152) Light going one way, and shadow the other 163) It does have light power of its own 171) Yes 182) Basically, they can shoot bolts of light from their hands, the same way a Toa can shoot fire or ice or water, etc. from theirs. 193) No, more like balls of light 203a) They aren't at the level of what Takanuva can do, but they are strong enough to be annoying 214) Yes
22Some questions i asked greg about the Av-Matoran and Takanuva.All seem pretty interesting to me.
1Well, my friends talked me into asking this for them:
21) Why doesn't Brutaka's team just travel using the Olmak?
3Thanks. 4~CN
51) Given the dangers of this kind of travel and the number of pocket dimensions one can encounter, I don't think Brutaka wants to take the chance of team members slipping away en route to places from which he could not easily retrieve them.
6Nothing much, but sharing is good.

9Ummm... I don't think that is the main reason. Brutaka wants the mission to succeed, and sacrificing members unnecessarily isn't the best way to succeed.

1Mr. Farshtey I've got a few questions, some that have been bugging me for some time
21) what is the possibilities of a mask of...
3a) self-detonation? 4 duplication? 5c) power-negation?
62) I've noted some simerlarities between some of the the 2004 characters and characters from Richard Adams book 'Watership Down'
7Vakama-Fiver/Hazel 8Nokama-Blackberry 9Onewa-Bigwig 10Matau-Kehaar/Hawkbit 11Whenua-Blackaver 12Dume-Thearhrah 13Makuta-General Woundwort
143) I've noted that Avak leans more towards being an anti-hero than the other Piraka, my guess is that he has a somewhat Barraki/Antroz-like honor. 15Eg in BL3 He is the one whom strikes the bargain between the piraka and the toa Inika when Hakaan and Thok steal Brutakas powers. I mean wouldn't it have been easier to let H&T kill off the toa first, (whilst breaking out ) then use the zamor on the two rogues than helping the toa as well? 16If Spirah hadn't mucked up the Zakaz expirement I'm guessing Avak would've had a very different kind of life.
174) where do you get your humour inspiration from?
185) how would you describe the shadow matoran 19- As evil minions like Count Olaf's Acting troupe 20- Or as Annoying mischeif makers to the Toa Nuva (like Lock, Shock and Barrel from "the nightmare before christmas")
216) Would you compare Tanma to Sweeny Todd (Sondheim/Tim Burton version) or close to him 22a) On an off topic question have you heard about the Movie adaptation of the Sweeny Todd musical
237) would the term "Son of a kavinaka" be a typical bionicle insult?
248) There was a quote I heard that goes around these lines 25- I have discovered a new way to force someone to shapeshift and do so permentnently, grab me again and you'll be living out the rest of your life as and angry frost beetle, with a broken leg' 26a) is this canon 27 I presume Chirox and Mutran said this am I warm?
289) is there some reason behind Antroz's honor? 29a) could you compare him to Pohatu (in a manner of speaking)?
3010) I've theory on the reason for Takanuva's mission. 31The twisted Toa invade the main dimension and heavily aid the Makuta and Takanuva must prevent that
3211) Please could you elabourate on Spirahs personality
3312) A few questions about Antroz and Co. 34A) If, say, Lewa was to save Antroz's life would the latter honor lead him to repay the debt at the appropriate time 35 Could you compare Vamprah to Baron Samadi from James Bond
36thank you if you can answer these
37Peace on earth and good will to all men
381a) Why would anyone want a mask that blew them up? 391b) Possible 401c) Possible 412) Coincidence. I was in the meetings where the 2004 story was conceived, no one mentioned the book. You have to realize that both we Adams are dealing in archetypes, which means there are going to be superficial similarities between characters. 423) Sounds to me like Avak is simply more practical. There was no guarantee the remaining Piraka on their own could have beaten H & T, and Avak simply realized that. 434) I don't get it from anywhere. I'm a writer, this is what I do. 445) More like evil minions. This is a war, there's no time for mischief making. 456) Have heard about the movie, no interest in seeing it, and I don't see any similarity at all. If you are going to say a desire for revenge is a similarity, then you have to compare Sweeney Todd to half the characters existing in fiction. 467) Not one we have used. 478) It is canon, who said it has not been revealed 489) What reason do you see behind the honor of an honorable human? 499b) In what way? 5010) No. The beings in the pocket dimension have no way to access this one. 5111) That will get dealt with during the Brutaka serial 5212) No. There is a difference between trying to fight fairly and aiding and comforting the enemy. 5312b) I see no comparison to be made here.
541a) Not what I ment, the mask explodes the wearer but the explosion doesn't affect the wearer. 553) So your basically say Avak has more common sense than the other Piraka? 564) Let me rephrase that: how would you describe your humour as? 577) could it be a possible insult? 5812b) personality-wise
59other quesions
6013) about Takanuva could you say he is a tad more ruthless now
6114) what kanohi does Miserix wear? 6215) how would you describe Vicans personality
6316) what are the perks in your job?
6417) could you say Mutran bears a bit of a grudge against Chiroz for belittling his expirements
6518) what would you say was Mutrans mutation style
6619) is Kopaka able to separate his Blizzard bade from his blaster, I mean say if Vamprah and Chirox were coming at him from two differnt directions that would come in handy
67thank you if you can answer these. 68Happy New Years
691A) I doubt LEGO would let me do something like that, it would look too much like a suicide bomber 703) Well, that's not hard, is it? 714) I wouldn't try. That's for my readers to do 727) Sure 7312b) I haven't watched Live and Let Die in decades, so I really can't comment on this. 7413) We'll see as the story develops 7514) I haven't decided yet 7615) Vican spends a lot of his time afraid, because he works with someone who at any moment might decide to toss him in a vat and mutate him again for fun 7716) Discounts on LEGO sets, the chance to work from home now and again 7817) Neither one likes the other much 7918) Mutran's mutations tend to be extremely destructive in nature 8019) If it can be separated in the set, then yes
1A few questions I asked Greg for my benefit; I don't know if these things are already known but here you go: 2QUOTE 3Hello, Greg. I know you're busy and your PM boxes are probably always full so I won't waste any time. I have a quick Q for you if you'd like to answer it: 41. Since the Staff of Artahka was used to plug the hole in Karda Nui and no nuva down there can teleport, are they stuck down there until Brutaka or Botar or whoever can teleport gets there when their mission is completed? 5Oh, and another thing I was wondering about: 62. When/if the Nuva accomplish their mission, how will people outside the dome(Karda Nui) know? Will 'great joy' spread across the universe like in Ignition 10, will Mata Nui actually tell them he's awake, how? 7On behalf of the other kajillion people that have PM'd you, I'd also like to say thanks for all of your patience, help, and your contributions that make Bionicle more than just "another Lego series".
8Greg's Answers: 91) Unless they find another way out. 102) Oh, they'll be able to tell. If you remember any of the early animations or the first movie, it's made clear that the world changed a great deal when Mata Nui went to sleep, so reversing that will be noticeable. 11/QUOTE 121: I had figured that if no one even knew about Karda Nui, maybe there weren't any other entrances or ways to get in except teleportation (ie how the Makuta got in). 13That's all:

14I think that he said that there was a "western tunnel" that the Makuta used to get in.
1Well this is my first time writing to you. I hope you find my questions interesting.
2Other elements:
31. Is it a possiblity that the other elements could be used for the or regulor sets in future storylines?
42. Do you have desire to use other elements?
53. Have you ever thought of or considered making prefixes for the other Elements.
64 I know you aren't a visial person, but did you ever imagain certain colors for the other elements, we know plant life would green with blue for secondary, but what about the rest?
7Other:
85. Could Krakoa be used as a main Charecture in future storylines?
96. how far ahead do you plan plots. Do you have plans for 09 already? How far ahead have you planed ahead in past years?
10Thanks a bunch, 11Roboformer
121) Anything's possible, but it's up to the set designers, not me. 132) Irrelevant, because it's not my call. 143) Not until I need to for story. 154) No, I don't. 165) It's doubtful, because we do not own the rights to produce him as a set. He is a fan-built model. 176) We are planned through 2011.
1QUOTE 2Hello Greg. I have some more Q's for you. 31)We know that MoMN is attempting to gain total control of the domed universe for his speices, and that at some point, he may try to get all the power for himself. Is it possible that some Makuta wouldn's care, and would serve him no matter what? 42)Is it possible that MoMN is just a pawn in another Makuta's plan, unaware that he is being used? 53)Are the pics of Bionicles at Toyfair the final ones? 64)Is it possible that we will see more of the innovations of this year's sets?I.e. link-up, evil-good release split? 7I understand if you can't answer.
81) If the alternative is death, sure. 92) Nope 103) Normally they are, yes, but it really depends on the source of the sets. If the sets come from the showroom, sometimes they are a little more prototype than if they actually come off the manufacturing line 114) I believe the summer sets are also designed so that Matoran sets can link to them as well
122 is kinda interesting. No chance Makuta is a pawn to someone else...

12 is dissapointing, I'd have loved for him to have been a pawn.
1Howdy Greg,
2Remember, the Rahi created include things like the Tahtorak, the Kanohi Dragon, the razor whale, the doom viper, and other large and/or deadly creatures.
31.) If I were trying to help the Matoran and create a Matoran-survivable universe, none of these things would be high on my list of creatures to make. I know it's a pertty minor point, but will we ever learn anything like "why," or what grand purpose any of these things had?
42.) You said Makuta had a ton of powers in case their Rahi got out of hand, etc. Well, Toa have to deal with more than just stray Rahi, in general, so why were they created with just the 1 elemental power each?
5Thanks a lot:
61) I doubt I am going to have time and room anytime soon to go into that -- also note that the Rahi I listed were fan-built Rahi, not ones we created for the story. They were added into the universe because they were great models, not because we decided in 2001 that we needed a Tahtorak.
72) Because if we gave them vast amounts of power, then nothing could challenge them and the stories would be boring. You wind up going the '70s Superman route, with a hero so powerful you can't write a decent story unless you do magic/kryptonite every issue.
8Well..... at least he's honest, lol.
1How do you do Mr. Farshty? I have a few more questions for you.
21) People have been asking you questions about Takanuva and his new powers and power-level and your resposes have been that he is not really any stronger because he is now a divided individual and because you don't see much difference between shooting light out of one hand and darkness out of the other as apposed to shooting light or darkness out of both hands. I understand the divided individual part and obviously a blast of shadow is not that different from a blast of light but what about the Av and Shadow Matoran powers? Wouldn't Takanuva (with training) have access to Lightspeed running (Photok), solid light projections (Solek), Vertigo (Galva), Sloth (Radiak), The blindness power that Kirop has, as well as any other that we might not know about? You did say that his light powers are equal to a full Toa of light and his shadow powers are equal to a full Toa of Shadow. I can understand him not wanting to use these powers but he still could and that makes him stronger, even if he doesn't want or know how to use that strength right?
32) I had a dream where Takanuva grew larger by absorbing a Makuta in the pocket universe. I know that it's unlikely and just a dream but is there any chance that it is true (you did say that he changes in size after all)?
43) Is it possible that there are any other Av and Shadow Matoran powers that we don't know about or do they all have one of the ones already shown?
54) Would a Kakama be basically useless for an expirienced Toa of Light since they can already run at light speed? 64a) Could solid light projections also be used in place of a Hau? I would assume it would be weaker but would it do in a pinch?
75) You said that it is possible that the pocket universe characters have different destinies then their counterparts in the dimension that we know. Does this imply that destinies can be changed by cercumstances?
86) What is Nidhiki in the pocket universe? A second in command? A Gerneral? An advisor? Just an averadge Toa that has no more influence then any other?
97) Is Artakha in that universe? If so, then does he have any opinion on the state of things in that world?
10Thanks a bunch.
111) Well, I COULD train to be a weight-lifter and win a record, but I haven't and therefore I can't lift anything even approaching a record. So how does just having the potential make me "stronger"? Everyone has potential. Takanuva is not going to have the time to get that training or develop those powers, so they aren't relevant to the conversation. 122) No, that's not how it happens. 133) It's entirely possible there are ones you don't know about. 144) But they can't. Takanuva does not have that power. Umbra has that power. 154a) Not necessarily, no. The Hau pretty much lasts as long as your willpower holds out and you know the attack is coming. Solid light projections can be smashed -- happens to Green Lantern all the time. 165) I think so, when you are talking about a change this extreme. Let's say your destiny is to fight off a Venusian invasion in 2030 and singlehandedly win the battle of Callicoon? If, in another universe, the Venusians never invade, how can that still be your destiny there? 176) We'll find out, we have 9 more chapters to go. 187) Yes, he is, and no, he doesn't. Artakha is a craftsman, and he is respected and left alone by the Toa in that universe the same as he was by the Barraki in our universe. He hates the Makuta because they raided his island in our world, but in general, his priority is being left alone to work.
19A couple resposes and more questions.
204) What about Photok? He can jun at ligt speed so a well trained Toa of Light (Note that I did not say Takanuva since he is not quite as well trained) should be able to as well...so wouldn't that make a Kakama useless?
219) Does that mean that the empire doesn't control the Matoran in Artakha? 229a) Does it also mean that Artakha has a "You leave me alone and I'll leave you alone" attitude, even if things get really terribly bad in other parts of the universe?
238) Great new chapter for FoF. The Barraki seem a little enthusiastic about their new job though. As apposed to Roodaka who seems to want to make trouble, Takadox and Carapar seem to be enjoying this. I would think that people who used to be Warlords would be more...angry at being bossed around by Brutaka.
249) Is Spiriah just being paranoid when he says that there are Brotherhood agents ready to capture him everywhere or is he right?
25Thanks again.
264) Photok can only move at that speed if he is physically linked to a Toa -- he can't do it on his own. And since he has no idea why he can do it or how it works, there is no way he could train Takanuva to do it. 279) The Empire leaves Artakha alone. Artakha makes sure his Matoran keep working, he doesn't need Toa to enforce that. 289a) Policing the universe is not Artakha's job -- it's the Toa's job. 298) If the alternative is go back to the Pit for another 80,000 years and/or get killed by Pridak, wouldn't you be enthusiastic? This is freedom for them. 309) Well, the Brotherhood has been hunting him a long time, so it is not unreasonable for him to expect this, especially since this island was home to Sidorak who wound up a high-ranking employee of the BOM.
311) Still, if Hydaxon met a Makuta with equal fighting skill to himself he would get creamed. I was really just looking for raw power potential, 322) Dreams can be odd sometime 333) Oh goody: Maybe one of the Matoran that come with the larger sets in the summer: 344) He misunderstood this question...twice: I really just wanted to know if there would be some advantage of the Kakama. 355) Well that makes comlete sense 366) I figured he'd say that. 377) (why did I write 9 the second time?) Artakha seems to be getting less cool in my mind actually. It might not be his job to police the universe but he still has the power to do so if he wanted to. Just laying back and watching the universe go to pieces seems very irresponsible to me. "With great power comes great responsibility"-It might come from a comic book but it's still wiser words than many philosophers have ever come up with. If every country on earth with the exeption of america became a corrupt and heartless dictatorship but wasn't actually a threat to america do you think we would just sit back and let everyone else on earth suffer? Of course not: Sorry for getting so emotional but...well I would expect better from "The Great Builder". 388) I still can't see them allowing anyone to boss them around. Their actually acting like a good team. I know it's only been one chapter but they almost seem......Toa like? 399) Sidorak was high-ranking?
1(Sigh..) Greg still hasn't answered my questions I asked him 7 days ago. Oh well, I'll post some older questions I asked him-
14Here are the questions I asked him 7 days ago-
2[/size Hey greg, sorry to busy you or anything, but I've got a few questions. 31. How do matoran eat? 42. Where do matoran come from? I don't mean how they came into existance, how new matoran are created, or if there is any new matoran. 53. How do makuta see while walking on the ground? I mean do they need their shadow matoran all the time, or can they use ecolocation? I just can't see a blind makuta fighting on land . 6Please have a good day:
7-makuta krakan, the only noble makuta
81) Matoran can consume energy from certain things, like fruit or fish, simply by making physical contact with them. They don't have to chew and swallow liek we do. 92) If you don't mean how they come into existence or are created, what do you mean? 103) They don't need to walk on the ground that much, as all the combat is aerial. They are only on the ground when in their hive.
11Thanks for the Answers greg: That cleared a few things up. 12For #2 I mean how new matoran come into being.
132) I'm not allowed to discuss that
14Here are the questions I asked him 7 days ago-
15I have a few phantoka questions
161. How can the makuta travel through the shadow leach hive if the're blind?
172. Can makuta chirox still perform experiments in his blind state?
183. Is it true that tanma, solek, and photok are the only av-matoran in karda nui?
194. How can vezon aid the team in feaderation of fear if he has no powers?
205. Is the upcoming brickmaster exclusive toy a rahi? 215a. If so, is it native to karda nui?
226. Are the karda-makuta's masks transformed for a more bat-like appearance? Or are they always like that?
23Thanks:

1QUOTE 2Hello Greg. I have some more Q's for you. 31)We know that MoMN is attempting to gain total control of the domed universe for his speices, and that at some point, he may try to get all the power for himself. Is it possible that some Makuta wouldn's care, and would serve him no matter what? 42)Is it possible that MoMN is just a pawn in another Makuta's plan, unaware that he is being used? 53)Are the pics of Bionicles at Toyfair the final ones? 64)Is it possible that we will see more of the innovations of this year's sets?I.e. link-up, evil-good release split? 7I understand if you can't answer.
81) If the alternative is death, sure. 92) Nope 103) Normally they are, yes, but it really depends on the source of the sets. If the sets come from the showroom, sometimes they are a little more prototype than if they actually come off the manufacturing line 114) I believe the summer sets are also designed so that Matoran sets can link to them as well
122 is kinda interesting. No chance Makuta is a pawn to someone else...
13Cool.. #4 is something we didn't know..
1QUOTE 2Hi Mr. Farshtey... Just some things I want to clear up. Thanks in advance. 31.(I'm not very up-to-date on 2008's story yet, so I'm sorry if the answer is obvious..) What can Shadow Leeches do that Kraata can't?
42.Brutaka's Olmak was damaged by Pit Mutagen, correct?
53.How far in advance do you know the storyline of a particular year?
64.Was the MOMN alone in his overthrowal of Miserix or did he have support?
75.Can the Fire Entity in Adventures #7 produce a Nova Blast?
86.Refresh my memory please- Why isn't there a comic for January 2008 again?
97.Will 2009 books keep using the title 'BIONICLE Legends', or will there be a new one?
10Thanks again for taking time to answer.
111) A kraata basically can infect a mask, so that the wearer is under the influence of Makuta while he wears it. If he takes the mask off, or it gets knocked off, the influence ends. A shadow leech, on the other hand, actually drains the light out of a being so that they are corrupt and evil. 122) Correct 133) Well, we planned out 2008 in September of 2006. And we met last summer to plan out 2009, and at least sketch out 2010 and 2011. 144) Follow the Mutran serial, it gets dealt with there. 155) Probably not 166) Two reasons. One, we have a new artist in 2008, and we like to give new artists a little extra time on their first issue. Also, due to the amount of CGI animation we want to do for this year, budget money had to be taken from someplace to make that happen. 177) Hasn't been decided yet. My guess is it will be a new umbrella title.
18#2 and #5 are interesting for me.

1So Kraata are like primitive versions of Shadow Leeches And Brutaka's Olmak was damaged by the Pit Mutagen? Cool..
1Sidorak wasn't such a dumb coward as he was pictured in the movie. The Makuta knew what they had of him and why they chose him for leading the Visorak.
1Hey Greg, three questions today. 21. If Tuyet left the alternate universe for the BIONICLE one, would she be able to exsist? I'm asking because she'd exsist twice, which seems weird. 32. Is this the BIONICLE Brickmaster promo? 43. Will you be one of the judges for the Makuta building contest?
51) No, she wouldn't. Tuyet has been dead in the main universe for thousands of years, so she wouldn't be existing in two places in the same dimension.
62) No, it's not. The product number for the BM set is going to be #20005, and it doesn't look like that.
73) I am one of the two judges, yes
8About #1, what would happen if someone like Dume went from the alternate universe to the BIONICLE one? Would two of the same being be able to exsist at the same time? Also, is there a chance of Tuyet going to the BIONICLE universe?
91) I am assuming they can, since Takua exists in the alt. universe - and although he is not in Takanuva form, they are still essentially the same being. 102) I don't want to give anything away about what will or won't happen in the rest of the story
1Sidorak wasn't such a dumb coward as he was pictured in the movie. The Makuta knew what they had of him and why they chose him for leading the Visorak.
2Not exactly...
3The worthless scum of a being called Sidorak stole the credit of others, gaining the notice of the MoMN, and became a servent of the BoM. He then stole credit for the idea of themutation of the Rahaga from Roodaka, and gaining his position as king as a result of his deception. Now go back to being on topic: OR ELSE:
