2I've recently been researching about Mata Nui; his physical form, his care toward the universe, etc. I've noticed a few clues that have led me to a single question
3clues: 4The man on the Ignika has outstreched arms and is to iustrate Mata Nui 5Mata Nui is (physically) the strongest being in the Matoran Universe 6Mata Nui needs the Matoran to work to keep strength
7So, here is the question:
8Is/was Mata Nui holding up the Matoran Universe?
9A few other clues to support this:
10The Matoran working keeps Mata Nui strong (them working=more energy for Mata Nui to hold up the universe 11Tren Krom also was physically strong 12The G.C. was a huge tremor (could be Mata Nui falling from his coma and dropping the Universe (would also explain why most of the damage happened around Karda Nui, like Voya Nui separating, stalagtites falling, versus an earthquake on Destral) that happened when poisoned)
13Thank you for your time and I hope you can answer this. If not, I'll be OK with that
14-Kohilå
15Let me ask one back -- given that Tren Krom was within the universe the entire time, in the core, how could he "hold up" the universe? If I put you inside a giant basketball, could you then hold up the basketball?
16With telekinesis or feeding energy to a support
17What proof is there that Mata Nui can do either? We have never stated he has either of those powers.
18Well is there any way that Mata Nui did his job differently than Tren Krom? I know that they did their jobs in different locations,but is there any different way they did their job?
19Also, was Mata Nui in the UC prior to his 'infection'?
201) I can't discuss this 212) No, he was not.
22Okay, was it that Tren Krom was s[ecially designed to do his job from the UC while Mata Nui was designed to do his from... wherever?
23The major difference between TK and MN is that the universe TK was looking after was nowhere near as large and complex as it eventually became. TK could not oversee the universe as it is now.
24I got an analogy at what I'm trying to get at:
25You have a flower vase (Universe) that you want to put in your house. You set it down on a tray (Tren Krom) that screws into the bottom. (UC) However, you can't fill it with too much soil (islands, etc.) without breaking the tray. So, you begin to build a nice oak desk (Mata Nui) to support it more. After you finish the desk, you move the vase there.
26Just to see if this works 27Anyway, onto some non-Mata Nui questions:
281. For the Hagah serial, could you give Bomonga a Shelek since he is quiet all the time? Or a Volitak?
292. Were Mazeka and Vultraz rivals before becoming an Order member and a Shadow Matoran?
301) I am hoping to give the other four new masks as opposed to old ones 312) Yes
32Hey, he didn't deny it .
33How could Bomonga use a Shelek, keeping in mind that Toa don't wear Makuta masks? 34Khote
1They could BEFORE they turned evil.
1Thanks, Keyl. Mata Nui in the dome? Good find 
and it was from MY post . 
and it was from MY post . 1I do like new masks myself though some people might find it confusing.
11) Now that Icarax is de-evolved, would it be safe to assume that given this new pain, he would be cursing Teridax's name further? 21a) Does he still have control over all 42 Makuta powers, which are by no means undiminished? 31b) Could he still create Kraata? 41c) As his body is now armor and muscle, would he no longer be able to use a Tridax Pod in the conventional Phantoka way? (Tridax Pod in the chest cavity) 51d) Given his new pain, would he turn it all into unfettered wrath and inconsolable hatred, hatred for Toa, Matoran, fellow Makuta, Teridax's Plan, and of course Teridax himself? 61e) I figure this because Icarax's real worst enemy is himself, what he hates most of all, hating himself for following Teridax's Plan, but given his pride and arrogance, he wouldn't do himself in to end his pain, because death to someone like Icarax would be like a coward's escape, and Icarax does not at all seem the cowardly type. But death in battle would sound like a much more feasible way to go, so the way I reckon, I imagine that Icarax would focus all his pain, anger, and hate to the point where he'd burn with the desire to destroy as much as he could: Toa, Matoran, Makuta et al., anything that lives and breathes enough for Icarax to exert his rage upon. Am I getting warm? 72) Since the destruction of the Shadow Leech Hive, how many Shadow Leeches are still alive in terms of how many Tridax Pods they could fill? (given four leeches per pod) 82a) Do the Phantoka Makuta still have their Tridax Pods with any sort of Leeches in them, or has that supply completely expired? 93) Which is your favorite Mistika Makuta? 104) Given Makuta can spawn Kraata from their essences, they could also absorb Kraata back into themselves, right?
111) Irrelevant. He already didn't like Teridax, but it still comes down to, can he offer a better plan than Teridax can? If he can't, his personal feelings toward Teridax won't matter to the rest of the Makuta. 121a) Yes 131b) Not the same way he used to 141c) No, it's fitted into the armor and ejected from the armor, so he can still use it. 151d) If he lets it get the better of him, he'll lose. 161e) No. Icarax doesn't hate himself for not following the plan -- he thinks it's a bad plan. And if he just kills everyone in sight, what would be left for him to rule? 172) Not a lot, but Mutran can always make more. 183) Krika 194) Makuta can absorb any living being into themselves.
1Sorry, I worded it wrong. It might be hard to remember.
1I'm good too but it might be difficult for some people.
1Again? How quick is that .
5Please PM this to Greg, as he doesn't read this topic.
6But I can answer some of your questions for now:
71: No. That's why they have jets. 82: I don't understand. If you mean mist, it doesn't mutate I don't think. 93: How would that be possible? 104: Yes, he can.
11Next time PM them, but wait 'till later 'cause Greg's inbox is full and he's too
1Any parcticular reason why you picked the ideas for the serials that you did? Ex. Like why the Toa Hagah and the war? Just curious.
2Well, war only makes sense -- we are coming up to the end of this chapter of story, time for the war to happen. As for the Hagah, that was because I knew a lot of fans wanted to see more of them.

16Oh, Okay .
1Hello . Just two quick questions, one for fanfiction purposes and one for clarification:
21) About the Makuta -- when they shapeshift, do they gain the abilities of whatever they turn into? I'm thinking more Rahi than Toa and stuff; for example, say a Makuta turns into a Water Wraith. Would he gain the poisonous skin that real Water Wraiths have? Or a lohrak's poisonous fangs? Or, as far as powers go, the Rahi Nui's Kanoka disk powers?
32) I heard two different things about Mata Nui's appearance that you said at a library event recently. One person said you said he was over 100,000 feet tall, and another said 700,000 feet tall. So, out of curiosity, how tall is he?
4Thanks in advance .
51) No, he would not 62) Closer to 700,000 feet

1Hey Greg, just some questions for you;
21) Is the BIONICLE movie next year going to be about the Ignika saga? If not, is it about next year? 32) Is SPOILER the official name of the SPOILER in SPOILER? 43) Did the Order actually make the Toa Mata? 54) In SPOILER, SPOILER says to SPOILER "I don't SPOILER the SPOILER you have to SPOILER", and SPOILER replies "You shouldn't SPOILER". Was SPOILER referring to the SPOILER? 65) Did SPOILER kill SPOILER? 75a) If not, what will happen to SPOILER afterwards? 86) Can the SPOILER around the SPOILER kill whoever touches it? In the book, it says that SPOILER may have shattered if he didn't activate his SPOILER. 97) Someone said that Miserix will face Teridax. Does this mean Miserix (or the Order) will find Teridax and his secret location?
10Thanks for reading.
111) It focuses on 2009 sets and story, not the Ignika saga. 122) No 133) Artakha made them 144) Yes 155) No 165a) He'll be imprisoned, most likely 176) No, SPOILER would not kill him. 187) "Someone" is guessing, because I have never said that would happen.
191) Very interesting, I thought this film was gonna focus on recent years. 202) I wonder what is... 213) It seemed like the Order did in the book, though. 224) BOO YEAH .
235) Imprisoned where I wonder... 246) Nothing special. 257) Someone did definitely say this. I just wanted to confirm it.1The amount of SPOILER is ridiculous in that last post, shouldn't we have a rule that states that questions regarding spoilers shouldn't be posted? They don't add anything and only leave people guessing what the questions were about.

13If Mata-Nui is that big, how big are the Great-Beings???
14Well, they can't be that big, I mean, two of them made the 777 stairs, right?
1Following logic, very small .
1got some great info on 09
8NO MATA-NUI .
2Is mata-nui only in the domed universe?? Or is he in both the domed universe and the surface world??
3When awake, Mata Nui is responsible for the domed universe. He has no control of or responsibility for the planet around it.
4so when we go outside the domed universe... mata- nui isen't there?
5He has no power over that area, no. Think of it like this -- you have an RC car and a remote. So you control that car. But if someone goes and looks at the rest of the racetrack, you have no control over any of that.
6Thanks Greg . PS are there MORE great Spirits in the bionicle universe?? not just mata-nui??
7Not in the Matoran universe. As for the rest of creation, the Great Beings certainly had the power to make more, but there's no proof they ever did.
8NO MATA-NUI .
1Hello Greg, great job on the answering questons.

16Sorry about the Spoiler ones
1WOW . 70 stories tall...All hail Mata-Nui...or get squished...

26Yeah, I asked him that question as well and he gave me the same answer. The guy who said this made a topic about it. It's in the Top 10 hot topics. Too bad it's false anyway.
1That makes him about 133 miles high (214 Kilometers) provided that he isn't even taller than 700,000 ft...
