1Hi, 2Here's some stuff I got from GregF some time ago:
3I think the server ate my message, so here it is again :) :
4Hi GregF, happy Easter, 5Here are some things I've been wondering:
61) why did the toa metru wear their toa masks (the same shape) when they were matoran if there weren't any others that were wearing these?
72) you once said that there wouldn't be a Bionicle soap serie because the people of TV-channels would think it's just some commercial-like thing, right? 82a) if right, but on Nickelodeon in my country there are also soaps of toys on tv, and the toys were there first and the soaps came later, why can't this count for Bionicle?
9thanks for your time :),
10LtoF


111) How do you know there weren't others? When did we ever show every one of the Metru Nui Matoran in a scene? 122) Well, I don't know what country you are in, Lhikan. But in much of Europe, they will not air TV series based on toys, unless the series comes first. When we licensed the Galidor series a few years ago, we had to wait until the series had been on the air for several months before we could release the toys, otherwise the series would not have been allowed to air in some countries overseas.
13But that is only part of the reason for not doing a series. Other reasons are about half the fans polled on BZP don't want one, and when someone else is producing your series, it's easy to lose control of it and wind up with stories being told you don't like.
14Greg


15Thanks for these answers GregF, and I hope you have time to answer these since your PM box was full last time :)
161) Yes, that's true, but they were the onlyone we ever saw with those masks, and in every online movie and on mata nui there were no matoran with those masks, that's why I asked the question :)
172) Okay, I understand
18And here are some new ones, wich I hope you can answer:
191) The claws on Vican are they weapons or his hands?
202) Could a toa's duty be different from his destiny? like for example the toa nuva's duty is to awaken Mata Nui but there destiny isn't (just an example ;) )
213) Since Garai means gravity and Ga means water, would a mask of water be called Ga? 223a) and a matoran of gravity an Garai-matoran (like in Ga-matoran)?
234) The plan of Teridax was in LoMN to get the Vahi and then use it to speed up time and then wake up the matoran etc., right? 244a) If this is right, isn't this kind of selfish, since his fellow BoM-members would not go with him?
255) Gorasts mask disrupts your elemental abilty, or something like that, right? 265a) if so, what does it do exactly (I can't imagine what you mean by it ;) )
276) I didn't read BL9, because they don't sell it in my country, but why did Icarax use his gravity ability on Antroz (I've read it somewhere that he did)
287) Does Galis mask, the kaukau, let you breath underwater or in any substance?
298) If the toa phantoka layed their midak down, would it go back to it's original form?
30thanks for your time, have a nice day further :),
31LtoF


321) Hands 332) Duty is not the same as destiny. A duty could be protecting Matoran in a village, but your destiny is to die doing it. 343) Not something I have bothered to determine, since neither has come into story 354) He wasn't speeding up time for himself -- he was speeding it up for the Matoran, so they would wake up faster. 365) You'll find out in summer 376) I would have to go back and read the book to see if that happened, I wrote it over a year ago 387) Underwater only 398) No

3QUOTE 41. Are all of the Matoran inhabitants of the island of Nynrah necessarily craftsmen?
52. Does Gorast's mask make elemental power just temporarily stop, like this: Tahu is going to hurl flame at Gorast, but she just makes it stop basically. Am I close?

6Thanks for everything. Dark Mirror is going well

3Does anyone know why Icarax did this? And is this the reason Antroz' armour is leaking?

4Antroz was fighting Pohatu; Icarax hit Pohatu with gravity but didn't bother to keep Antroz out of the "crossfire". Antroz's armor is leaking because Kopaka reflected one of his laser blasts.

11.Is the OoMN leader male or female? 21a.Is the First toa the leader of the OoMN?

31) Not going to answer this, you will find out the answer in Bionicle Legends #10

4So I think the OoMN leader is the first toa,


5I asked him the same question and I also believe the first Toa is the OoMN leader
6Somebody agrees

7But the Order doesn't accept Toa into the,um,Order.How can the first toa be the leader?


8He made it, he can bend the rules for krakua. Good job .
#2329

1A problem I have with this theory is that Toa came after the Hand of Artakha... :shrugs:

2Wasn't it that Toa became the main justice force after the HoA, not creation? I thought Toa existed during the time of the HoA, only they weren't very active until the HoA stepped down.
#2330
1Someone put up some quotes in their theory that didn't seem like something Greg would say so I went ahead and asked him about it:
2I'm not sure about this Greg, so I'm gonna see if this quote is true:
31. We know that a makuta can posess makuta armor, and a robot body. But what if a makuta takes a toa's armor, and shapeshifts it into the form of makuta armor?
42. Does kopaka's form change by the end of 2008?
53. Does mutagen have any efect on Antroz's summer form?

61. Possibly, but one Makuta has to risk their life first, so the second can go into the new armor. Or, the makuta could just fuse with the toa...
72. You'll find out in september .
83. No, none of the Phantoka are going to be affected by mutagen. I can't tell you if mutagen actually effected the Mistika either, though it is a popular theory.

9So, is it correct? I doesn't really sound like something you would say about that kind of stuff, especially #1 and #2.
10Thanks.

3Actually, I belive BS01 says that Toa were made as a replacement for the HoA because they're method's were to harsh.
#2335
1Toa were around during the time of the Great Beings and the HoA. the Toa were chosen after them because they were undisciplined. But the toa were not created because of the HoA's failure.

6I was replying to the bolded statement in your post. I'm just saying that other Matoran do have those masks. Matoran stopped going to Karzahni after he went nuts and started holding them hostage, so Metru Matoran may have been there before. I just think others weren't shown in the movie, or in the games or anything so that people who weren't huge fans wouldn't get confused and think that they were the same beings.
#2338
11.How many Leaders have the HoA had?
21) Not many, they weren't around that long
32. Was the HoA made before or after the First Toa's creation?
42) Probably after, but would have to check the timeline
53.What is the point of rahi creation?
63) What is the point of us having animals in our world? They serve a purpose in nature. Rahi do too. For example, suppose you have a bunch of Matoran living on an island where vegetation grows wild. Having a Rahi on the island who eats that vegetation would be a good thing, right?
74.Can matoran be made while Mata-Nui is asleep?
84) Yes
95. Makuta were created only once right, or is there a way to produce more of them too?
105) Only once
116. How did Great beings know that the Volcanoes had to be capped? 126) GBs knew a lot of things, they designed the universe.
137.Who put the guard system in where Teridax is?
147) Krika
15Follow up:7. I thought you said no one had been where Teridax is currently?
16Follow up:7) Sorry, misread your earlier question -- the answer is the Great Beings.
178.Would you say Miserix and Teridax are two different type of evil?
188) Not really, no, they are both selfish and self-centered. One is just more cautious than the other.
199. Was the Legend in Metru-Nui that Mata-Nui comes down and gives all the good matoran presents on naming day true, or was it a joke on your part poking fun at Santa?
209) It was not true

2110. How do Makuta make viruses?
2210) Hasn't been revealed
2311. What happens to lazy matoran, since their only job in life is to work?
2411) Well, in past times, they were either sent to Karzahni or, in Metru Nui, handled by the Vahki. Nowadays, they would probably be transferred to a different job, and if they were still not working, ostracized from their village or city.
2512.Why no Makuta for Odina?
2612) Because the location of Odina is a secret. The DH wouldn't want the BOM knowing where they are based.
2713. When Destral teleports, do they teleport their whole dome, or their whole island into another dome?
2813) Just the island
2914. The UDD map extends into another universe right? Or is it Universes? Or is it not even in the Matoran universe?
3014) I can't say anything more about this than I already have
3115. Since Spirah is already a traitor to the BoM, why not tell the OoMN the Plan? Even bits and pieces of it?
3215) Because he didn't betray the BOM, he simply failed in a task and so was condemned. He still stands to benefit if the Plan works.
3316. Do the other Makuta know where Teridax is?
3416) They know where he is supposed to be
35Follow up:16. Is Teridax where he's suppose to be?
36Follow up:16) Yes
3717. If the Vahi is broke, would affect the flow of time in the domes, or in the whole cosmos of when there the Bionicle planet is taken place?
38B. Same with Life?
3917) Only the Matoran universe
4018. Have you considered taking a break from answering PMs on BZP, like you did a year or two ago?
4118) I may have to later this summer, because I am moving and won't have time to be online
42OFF TOPIC Q's ( don't answer if you don't have time) 431. Do you like Spider-Man?
44a. If so have you seen the new animated series?
45b. If you have what do you think about it?
4619) I do, but have not seen the show yet.

#2343
1Well, we know that the current leader of the OoMN was one of the original leaders of the HoA, so the First Toa is out. (I think I'm just going to call her 'Ga', because it's the first toa, ergo a toa 'baby', and also a ToW) :D

2That's what I called her in my epic, Ga, so maybe we're onto something, probably just the same idea though.
#2345
1Wow, got much better answers than I expected . :D
2Hello Greg. I hope you are well.
31. You recently said the BB map is older than the Red Star. Meaning Red Star was created after the BB map, or came into the orbit of this planet after the BB map? 42. Are the entities inside the Red Star as old as the Red Star, or are they younger, or older? 53. Did Gali recognize what the entities were, and she simply never explained to us in her blog, or does she have no idea? 64. You also said that Kopaka/Tahu capped the volcanoes in order to save Miserix. Now, if that is true, that means the Great Beings, who wrote the list, knew that Teridax would go bad and upserp Miserix, Krika imprisoning him in that southern island. If they knew they were going to bad bad for sure, than why bother letting them exist anyway? Why not warn Mata Nui that at a set time they would go bad? 75. Would you consider Miserix to be a good Makuta? Meaning, he doesn't despise Toa and the like, nor does he like destruction and chaos?
8Thanks. :)


91) Created after 102) Probably younger 113) She has no idea 124) Wrong. It means they knew the volcanic eruptions were a potential menace to the well-being of Mata Nui. Nothing in their instructions said anything about Miserix. 135) No, I consider him to be a cautious Makuta, in the same way a mobster who passes up a chance to kill a cop because it would bring too much heat down on his operations would be a cautious mobster, not a good one.
#2346
1I know you have said that the OoMN does not accept Toa because they have their own job to do but then there destiny what if a certain Toa's destiny requires him/her to be in the OoMN in order to accomplish it?

2If it's his destiny, then it will happen -- that is what destiny refers to, what is meant to happen to you.

1I got this reply today,some interesting stuff.




2Hi Greg,hope you're well,just have some questions today,hope you can answer them:
31.Will we see Miserix anywhere besides FoF? 41a.would his mask be considered a mask that a toa would not want to wear? 51b&1c.Why and how did Tahu and Kopaka save Miserix's life by closing the volcanoes?Doesn't he have heat resistance and invulnerability?
62.Have we seen the Order of Mata Nui leader before?
73.Will Gorast or Bitil be given speaking lines before BL10?
84. Is Mazeka's serial the podcast?
95.Does the Brickmaster exclusive set have storyline significance? 105a.If yes will it appear in the books,serial,or other?
116.Will Antroz, Icarax, Chirox, Mutran, Miserix, Gorast, or Krika use their mask powers in canon storyline? 126a.If yes,which one(s)?
137.Will Vultraz be in Mazeka's serial? 147a.If no where will he appear?books, other serial, or other?


15Have a nice day, 16mistika gorast

171) Possibly, yes 181a) I haven't decided on his mask power yet 191b) Ah, but it's limited invulnerability, and heat resistance is not heat immunity -- it can't help you survive being bathed in lava for a prolonged period 202) No 213) Don't know 224) No 235) Yes, it does, and it will be in FOF, the Sept. comic, most likely, and Bionicle Legends 11 246) Since all the comics are not written yet, impossible for me to answer this 257) Yes

#2352
1Interesting things in bold.
21) If the Nynrah modefied the Makuta armor after Miserix was overthrone, is he Biomechanical or Antidermis? 32) Is the chain of southern islands the same island(s) that Prototype stayed at for many years? 43) Where is Amphibax if Voya Nui is back where it originally was? 54) You probably can't answer this but is Raveger the OoMN spy in the DH? 65) If Savage only "badly hurt" his former comrades, can you reveal which Toa team he was on? 76) Is Axonn alive in the Toa Empire universe?
81) Antidermis, just with unmodefied armor 92) Since I don't have my DH guide handy, I can't answer this 103) Heading back to Odina, if not already there 114) No, I can't answer this 125) It doesn't have a team name, because I don't need one for story 136) Yes
141) Intresting 152) :( 164) Aww, He seems like it because he has "amnesia" 176) :o If Brutaka's dead what happened to him?

32) The BM rahi hasn't been seen in the storyline yet, right? 42a) Is it on the toa or makuta's side in BL11?
53) Did you get any of the 08 bionicle sets?
64) Will the OOMN leader be a combiner? 74a) Will the first toa be a combiner?
85) Has the may rahi combiner been designed yet? 95a) If so which sets make it? 105b) Since there will be a lot of rahi on Miserix's island will the may rahi combiner be on the island?

111) Yes 122) Correct 132a) Come on, do you really think I am going to share Bionicle Legends 11 plot points 7 months before the book comes out? 143) Yes 154) No plans for either at this point, but I do not know yet how many combiners we will do in summer and fall. 165) Yes 175a) Don't recall 185b) No, it's in Karda Nui.
