21.Would it be possible for a makuta to create and3 manipulate the dark matter.
42.Mata nui could he control the functions of the Red Star5 for reborn the death of the UM.
63.or is currently Zaktan.
74.if a Matoran absorbs sufficient powers8 elementary with the stone nui Could it9 become a toa
101) What dark matter?
112) I think the RS is intended to operate independently.
123) ?
134) I don't think so, no. There has to be something in the Matoran that gets triggered for him to become a Toa, it's not just about elemental power.
Tomasko579 wrote:1Hello Greg I have few questions for you:
21. Kanohi kraahkan allow user to acces elemantal shadow powers, anger and fear. The mask howerer will not boost any pre-existing shadow powers and can also be worn only by Makuta. All Makuta have shadow powers on their own, which the mask will not boost. All that remains for them is anger and fear. So what's the point of kraahkan having shadow powers if noboby but Makuta can use it but they won't gain anything from it ?
32.The power of legendary masks is said to be too much to handle by even Toa or Makuta. Artakha is wearing legendary mask of creation regularly. Does it mean that he could wear other legendary masks and have full control of them ?
43. Why don't shadow matoran call themselves kra-matoran ?
5Sorry if it's too long, but I had to ask.
61) Well, for one thing, it uses those shadow powers to repel non-Makuta that try to use it. Also, if as a Makuta you want to use one of your other 42 powers instead of your shadow power, the mask allows you to use its shadow power.
72) Yes
83) Because shadow Matoran aren't really considered a tribe in and of themselves. They are just corrupted other Matoran.

21) BIONICLE was ended by LEGO because of diminishing sales, as I understand it.
32) I stopped working on the serials because after my daughter was born I did not have the spare time, since those had to be done at home.

2Oh great. Human worshipping? I thought that was in the past?
3Great Beings are not gods. They are merely scientists, that made some robots that ended up having souls due to a glitch. It has been even shown in BIONICLE that they themselves do not like the title "Great Beings" and feel as though it doesn't describe them accuratley. #KnowBIONICLEAlready.
4No need to get mad, and believe it or not, I don't want to know the story
5So, you start raging at someone for calling Greg Farshtey a "Great Being" because you think that's human worship, and when I try to explain otherwise you tune me out? Seriously.
6*UBER FACEPALM*
7What about a facefoot?
8Some Indians who do yoga could probably put their own ffot to their face. Most humans can't. Frankly I can't quite see the appeal of it myself.
9I can do that =P
10With all due respect, Mr. Farshtey is a hard working man who has very little spare time, and you all waste that spare time by going off the train tracks about Yoga, Hashtags and flaming.
11If you have nothing important(Or rather, nothing on topic) to post, please post nothing at all. Thank you.

2This made my day and brought me warm memoories, even if it has been WAY MORE THEN ONE YEAR.
3What a great book. I remember reading it when I was 7. I enjoyed how Vakama taunted the Rahi Nui, much to the chagrin of the confused Toa Nuva.
4I noticed at the end, all the Toa Nuva had their Kanohi Nuva and hadn't beaten the Bohrok-Kal. In Chronicles #3: Makuta's Revenge, Lewa mentions having MOST of the Kanohi Nuva. Since yours came afterwards, I assume you are the final retcon, Greg?

2Thanks!
3No, it wasn't. LEGO has done ninja themes before, this was simply a ninja theme with more of a story to it.
4Oh okay, thanks. I just thought because of the elemental powers, wise, tea-loving brother of the main villian, and uncle of a villian-turned hero, etc etc.

Who the heck is Greg Farshtey
11Lol, I kinda felt the same way at first XD (I thought it was Greg WEISMAN, writer and producer of such great works as Young Justice and Spectacular Spider-Man)
12Anyways, OT, He helped with Ninjago and BIONICLE.
1Alright Greg, I got some questions for you:
2Is the Phantom Ninja in Cole: Ninja of Earth the same as the one in Ninjago #10: The Phantom Ninja?
3I have Ninjago #1, #2, #3, #5, and #8, and really love them all. Definitely a fan. Just curious, do you know if the graphic novels exist in the same canon as the TV show, or are they written in a way so that they aren't able to exist together?
4I have yet to buy #4, #5 and #6. I plan on buying them all sometime soon, but which would you suggest to read first and why?
5I forgot to post more involving the Hero Factory Secret Missions books. So this shadowy organization, did you have an approved name for it? How about approved character names for various agents? Did you plan on them ever being beaten by Hero Factory?
6You mentioned the Legend of Chima story bible, as well as a Ninjago story bible. First, how many of these names do you recognize from the Legends of Chima story bible(Some of these might be made up, which is why I'm asking you):
7Buber
8Bozy
9Bungey
10Rinona
11Gardo, Gordo or Grumlo(This minifig exists, but different sources have different names for him)
12Dom De La Woosh
13Shadowind
14Lavertus(Yes, the last two are the same guy)
15Scorm
16Logas
17Lothar
18Gornay
19I know who they all are, I just wanted name confirmations.
20Next, Ninjago:
21General Cryptor
22Min-Droid
23Overborg
24Digital Overlord
25Dareth
26Neido(A Ninjago ninja from LEGO Universe-hey, you could retcon him as the Phantom Ninja!)
27Thanks for answerng these questions. Sorry for the sheer volume of annoyance, but curiosity was passed down to me from my MOM(NOT MY DAD.
)
