1Good idea Brickeens. What confused me was it said "one of bara magna's moons crashed down into Teridax's head" but Greg said hes dead and its was just a chunk. And what did it mean Mata Nui used the rest of the power to make the world what he wanted it to be?
2bright font hurt eyes <_>
3He wanted the world to be a more habitable place I guess.
1I suppose that means BM is no longer a desert.
1GUYS. Seriously, not the place. Maybe we should close this topic till Greg gets back...
2My idea is that was the moon of Aqua Magna everyone was debating about a while ago.
3-TN05
4Not a bad idea, you should ask GregF if that is the case.
5Maybe all the water evaporated on reentry.
6X-Ray.
7You mean Aqua Magna itself?
8Then what happened to all the mass that made it be a few times the size of the MN robot?
1I get the impressing Greg was in a good mood when he wrote this:
2I had a couple of questions for you. I apologize if they've been asked before:
31) Now that the Bionicle toy line will be ending, will you still be taking ques from the Bionicle Story Team on what to do with the story, or are you free to do as you like? If so, will you be changing anything in the tone of Bionicle, e.i., making it more graphic or adding some elements of romance?
42) Will you be working on the story for Hero Factory? Also, is it true that there are going to be a few episodes of a Hero Factory anime?
53) Do you know how many Bionicle graphic novels are planned? At some point I heard it would be at least 10, but now I'm not hearing anything for certain after #8.
64) I know that stories on Bota Magna were planned, before it was sadly revealed that there would be no more movies. Are you planning on doing any stories for Bota in the future? Because I would be disappointed if a whole section of the Shattered Spherus Magna went unused.
71) Three part answer, Slushie. One, there really is no BIONICLE story team anymore -- most of them are now the Hero Factory story team. Two, no, I do not plan on adding romance, because I am not interested in writing romance stories. That is what fan fiction is for. And three, making it more graphic is not an option -- the universe is still owned by LEGO, the story is still posted on a LEGO site, so graphic violence is still not allowed. 82) I have not heard anything about anime. I may do some writing here and there for HF, but I am not on the story team for it. 93) As far as I know #8 and #9 are definitely coming out -- #10 and beyond depend on how 8 and 9 sell, because Papercutz does not know if the GNs will still sell with no toys or LEGO marketing support. 104) Yes, I do have plans for that.
11Dunno how new any of this might be. The Bota Magna was definitely interesting to me, though.
12Also,
13As dearly as I miss Makuta, I would be really disappointed if he came back. If a character dies, I generally want them to stay dead. Otherwise, the impact is just lost. Like comic writer Peter David says: avoid killing the main characters unless you want them to be dead for good. Otherwise the 'pearly gates" become a "revolving door."
14Man I hope Bionicle eventually evolves into its own comic book series. I really hope little kids like the storyline even without the sets.
1I never thought of it being its own comic series. I bet DC or Marvel or somebody else would support it maybe. We should ask Greg a few days after he gets back.
1I really don't get it

The last comic has just killed off Teridax, i.e. the "guiding power" of the Matoran Universe....Millions of deaths.....widespread chaos.....no one to maintain the inner gravity fields, so the inhabitants will probably be falling down the side-turned "ground", and Metru Nui blasted to bits....... in my opinion, the most bloody BIONICLE comic ever.

2DC already publishes ("published" would be a better word, actually) the Bionicle comics. For better or worse, Bionicle will always be a part of Lego.
1Sorry thats what I meant Xhini.
1Unfortunately, LEGO owns BIONICLE. Even though LEGO doesn't care about its existence at this time, they're going to protect it because it's their property, and they could get a hekuva lot of money if somebody decided to use it. If they wanted to, they could shut down BZPower.
2So I don't think BIONICLE's going to officially continue any longer than LEGO lets Greg write for it.

4The chunk was much too small to be that moon. It was just a chunk. Spherus magna didnt split very cleanly, There would have been an awful lot of debris among which there could easily be some pretty big bits. And I'd rather support the theory that that moon was Bara Magna all along (And so obviously not really a moon)
1Can somebody please shut this topic down until Greg is back? 2The off-topic discussion will probably stop then
3Why would anyone do that? 4People may still have old quotes they want to post, and it's a lot of effort for nothing. 5It's not exactly Off-Topic, seeing as they are discussing what Greg said, it just has a better place...
1Here's something I've had for a while, but never posted-
2Ok. I was watching Legends of Metru Nui, and in one part, it showed Teridax talking to red eyes. If he already had done the whole Dume disguise, how could he be talking to red eyes? Was it another Makuta or a mistake?
3It was a mirror, T. The scene in which that would have been revealed was cut from the final film.
4So now we know that.
5-NM3000-
1huh? i don't get it. was he looking in a mirror? or was it a mirror Teridax (as in alternate universe version)? or am i just completely misunderstanding?
1LoMN is so full of gaping plot holes. First they took out the Morbuzahk, then they cut the Great Cataclysm, then they remove the only scene that proves that Makuta isn't schizophrenic .?

2It was never going to have the Morbuzahk storyline - that was the early '04 story. And it was just a mirror, I remember realising that pretty much as soon as Dume was revealed as Makuta. Also, it isn't schizophrenia, he's just talking to himself, something lots of villians do.

4Makuta Teridax just has an insane lust for power. He isn't actually insane, because he's smarter than pretty much anyone else in the MU, and has a clear grasp of things.

5Smart and insane are not opposites, who says he can't be both?
1Hi . Today I've got only one question:
21)Can you describe me Raanu's personality?
3Thank you for your time.
4-The First Speaker
5I see Raanu as someone who takes his job very seriously, and who remembers the Core War really well -- he knows he needs Glatorian to fight for his village, but also remembers all the destruction they caused during the war, so he doesn't trust them. He doesn't care how the Glatorian feel about him, the most important thing to him is the health and welfare of his village.

6Insane people are generally very delusional and don't have a clear grasp of things. Teridax knew exactly what was going on.
1As all we're getting here thanks to Greg being away (and even ignoring that, it was getting out of hand) is spam, might as well close this up 'till he's back, like we usually do...Not much point here at the moment.
2EDIT:
3Arighty then, we're back in business. Just remember to keep off topic discussions to an absolute minimum.

1I´ve got a PM.
141.Well... I expected more. 153.WOOHOO . Can´t wait for it. 164.I would instantly make a blue Skrall if blue Skrall swords and shield existed.... 175.He didn´t answer what happened to him afterwards
2Hi, Greg . I´ve got some questions...
31)What exactly is (are) the power(s) of the Golden Armor? We saw it destroy all the Kraata in Journeys End 2: Rebirth, But what does it exactly do? 42)How are you? 53)When is the next RoS/Sahmad´s Tale Chapter going to be released (BTW, the last chapters were awesome. You´re brilliant)? 64)Could there be more secondary colors for Skrall except for red and green? Like blue or orange? 75)What happened to Nektann after his fight with Tahu? Why didn´t he use his powers?
8Thanks for your time.
91) We saw what it did -- it sent out bolts of energy that incinerated the Kraata, thus ending the Rahkshi threat and breaking the back of Makuta's army. 102) Tired. Just back from London. 113) ROS should be next week, I think, then ST probably the week after. 124) Sure there could. 135) Because his powers were never established in story -- plus he was taunting Tahu, saying that the Toa would have to use his powers to beat Nektann, so if Nektann used his powers, that would have been pretty hypocritical of him

1Lesovikk530, you should put spoiler tags to your PM.

4A bad guy being hypocritical? That'd be impossible .¡
5But then again he caught him by surprise.
1what if he's a good guy forced to do evil due to circumstances? a lot of people accuse other people who lived under dictators that they didn't have the stomach to do something, or should've done something. the problem was, do something and you have a machinegun aimed at you, if you're lucky. it was a case of make or break. Makuta could make Nektann, or break nektann. Nektann choose Make. Break could involve the annihilation of half their homeisland.
1Dear Greg, I have a few questions: 21. a. Is the Ignika "dead"? I'm asking because in the last comic Kiina touched the mask but nothing happened. 3b. Can you tell us where the Ignika is now? 42. With Tahu now a Mata again is it possible for the other Toa Nuva and Tahu to form a Kaita?
5Thank you .
61) I would say dormant, not dead 71b) Since all this just happened, I don't think Tahu has decided what to do with it yet. 82) No.
