93. Have fun! Laughing This is an awesome opportunity! Enjoy!!

10Greg, out of all the themes you've designed, Bionicle, Ninjago, Chima, WHATEVER, what is your favorite character out of all those themes?  Favorite weapon?

11P.S.  You're so awesome that you can beat Chuck Norris in a fist-fight.  Wink

12Kopaka, and I don't have a favorite weapon, I don't think. Actually, I do, but it is from before I worked here -- back when I worked at the game company, I wrote for this humor game called Paranoia sometimes, and in one of our books we had a weapon that was a bunch of pieces of paper on a chain mechanism. We called it the papercut chainsaw. That was something.

1Hi again Greg,

 

2Why are the vahki your least favorite characters? Is it lack of personality in them? And which is worse for you, treespeak or vahki?

 

3And does the ignika have control over it's element giving/weapon upgrading power, or does it just do it automatically?

 

 

41) Exactly. I never liked enemies that were just mobs with no personality. Same reason I don't like zombie movies.

52) It does have control, yes

1Greg i know that you are busy with the Ninjago graphicnovel series but, could you countiniue the bionicle story please

2I discoverd bionicle to late.

 

3At this point, between work and taking care of my daughter, I don't really have time but I am hoping I can make some at some point. The second problem is there is no place to post any of it since BIONICLEstory is gone.

3That is certainly a really interesting idea, I like it.

4Woot! We got cannon! HappyJoking Nice one, tumaWink

 

 

1A few more questions. I really appreciate your effort, GregSmile

 

2When the Glatorian got their elemental powers, where they actually implemented inside them, or was it just confined to the particular weapon that touched the ignika?

 

3Where is the Marender currently located?

 

4If someone had the spear of fusion, reapaired the Matoran Universe, got a power source for it, and entered their mind into the robot, would it still work? This question is particularly important for my Bio Continuation.

 

5If you saw a Le-matoran walking down the road towards you, what would you do?Joking

 

 

 

1There will be a new season, yes. I think it starts in December, but I haven't heard anything official yet.

61) I believe it would have been inside of them

72) Don't know offhand

 

83) Probably, yes

 

94) Probably not talk to him so as to avoid treespeak

1 That leaves Ba, Su and Bo-Matoran. Bo will be especially difficult to think of a trait...

1What college degree does one need to be a mastermind such as yourself?

2My degree is in Communications.

1Regarding elemental traits, there were non-canon polls held on BZPower asking about Bo, Su, Fa, and Ba-Matoran, just to see what people liked (the internal compass idea was actually the most popular in the Fa-Matoran poll). I've put all the poll options in jammers below, to save space; are there any that you like?

 

2Ba-Matoran: Sensing gravitational 'down' direction easily; able to jump higher due to slight grav-shielding; greater tolerance for carrying weight, water pressure, etc. (most popular); naturally heavier; stronger sense of balance; naturally lighter; able to become slightly heavier or lighter at will; resistance to gravity in general
3Su-Matoran: Greater heat resistance than Ta-Matoran; eye protection against blinding light (as Plasma could emit) (most popular); bodies glow with heat; more energetic; resistance to light; absorbing sunlight for strength
4Bo-Matoran: Skill at cultivating plants; natural affinity for plants; nearby plants grow faster; enhanced reflexes; plants grow in armor; enhanced senses; manipulate plant growth, crossbreeding, etc; innate understanding of plant attributes, such as poison (most popular)

5Also, was there ever a concern that Kraata packs wouldn't sell well because you couldn't build a lot of their corresponding Rahkshi (for example, you could get a Power Scream Kraata, but you couldn't build a Power Scream Rahkshi because they are purple)?

 

6As always, thank you for your time! Smile
