The fantastic, complex world and story you've built for it is awe-inspiring, and in my opinion it made it the best LEGO theme of all time. If there's one LEGO theme I'd like to see come back, it would be Bionicle. So my question is this: Do you think there's a chance of Bionicle returning someday? I know there are no plans currently, but how likely do you think it is for a new Bionicle theme to eventually be created?
2It's impossible for me to guess, because it would only partially be a creative decision -- it would also be a business decision, and I don't work on that end of things. I don't know what factors have to be taken into consideration to decide to bring it back.

Maybe if you had a 2010 LEGO Magizine The Best Of Brickmaster 2010 book you could find what I was talking about. Who did that artwork cause I love it! I even used the style in one of my drawings! I know it'll be hard to find what I'm talking about. Maybe you could get your hand on a copy of the March/April 2010 issue it wich it's in. Please reply!2Even if I found it, doubt I would remember who did it.
3Ahh. Okay. I understand. Then can you tell me who did most of the artwork for the Bionicle aduio things on their website? That was really cool! If not then it's okay. Sorry art is one of my hobbies.
4Do you mean things like the original web game?
5No the audio series on the Bionicle Website. The art for that thing.
1I don't know you that much but I will ask you some questions...
2When there were movies about Bionicle that came out, did you have the idea... or did you at ALL work with this movie?
3Another question... Are there going to be any more Bionicle sets? There weren't any in a long time, the site was removed, they might have been replaced with Hero Factory...
4I'm glad I've got the chance to know you (will look up more about you)!

21) I do have stuff of my own that I am working on, but I don't have a lot of time for it.
32) I don't think i would be allowed to do unofficial BIONICLE fiction, since I am a LEGO employee.
4Non commercially obviously, but maybe on a blog?

1Do you find it weird that Kai means water in Japanese?2Not really, no. Proper names are usually not trademarked, and as long as it doesn't mean something offensive, we can use it. It is really hard coming up with character names that don't already belong to somebody else.
3Kai is actually a rather basic syllable. Given it means 'water' then it's probably an inside joke. Kai also means "and" in Greek, and someother sutff as well/

2BIONICLE had been around for nine years when the decision was made to end it. I think after such a long time, there were signs of waning fan interest and LEGO Company decided to try a different direction.
3The problem was, HF simply did fuax Bionicles, instead of something original.

A new body gets created and the brain patterns get transferred over, and they get sent back - -at least, that is how it is supposed to work. 3) I don't understand your question.
2Wow, I can't believe I'm having a conversation with Greg!
33) I mean, what would have been the out come of The Powers that Be? You left me hanging!

32) Ha ha! Okay.
43) Interesting...
5Thanks!
6And one more question... Who picked Matoro to be the one to save Mata Nui? You?
7And why Matoro?
8I did, yes. And I picked Matoro because he felt that he wasn't doing enough to be a hero ... he didn't really feel worthy of his power. So I thought it would be cool if he did the most heroic thing of all.
9Yeah.
10You did an epic job on that.
11Rereading that part always brings tears to my eyes. Really.
