2Bump.
3And another question, do you personally like the look of the BIONICLE 2015 sets?
4As I said earlier today, it is pointless to ask for my "personal opinion" on things, because what you will get is my opinion as a LEGO employee.

2Got lost, like 5 or more pages back. The hype is real.
3Oh and another question,
4You said everything you write about BIONICLE is canon, right? Which is why you cannot finish the serials as fan-fiction. Well I think today Christian Faber posted on his blog a nice little picture with a Turaga and some words in Matoran Language at the top. We thought this was BIONICLE 2015 stuff (Since it was made in 2014) but he later said that it was simply fan-art. How is it that whatever you do is official, but he can make fan stuff?
5I cannot speak to what anyone else does. I would also point out that Christian is not a direct employee of LEGO. He works for an outside creative agency employed by LEGO Company.

2I'm going to ask this even though the response will be that you had nothing to do with the pictures. In the Mata Nui Saga there is a picture where Teridax raises his foot to smash everyone, there is a purple Rahkshi looking being in the picture. Its purple and black. I'm sure it's a rahkshi because it is holding a staff like how the rahkshi do.
3Light Purple - Mind Reading4Blue/Purple - Accuracy5Purple - Power Scream6Black/Purple - Adaption
7Could the Rahkshi be one of those? Which? Power Scream Rahkshi and Adaption Rahkshi both fit the color description.
8And would that mean Tahu has that Rahkshi's power?9If you want to find the picture it is from the Mata Nui Saga Chapter 28. It is in the lower left of the picture, the purple rahkshi holding the staff.
10And another question, I tried to post the link to the picture directly, but for some odd reason or another was listed as an inappropriate site. Biosector01, the BIONICLE wiki, which to my knowledge LEGO has supported before in the past. How exactly is this site inappropriate. You've mentioned the site several times on this topic. Do you have any idea why my post was declined 2 times. The first was because I had the link, the second was because I mentioned how BIOsector01 (though in the acronym) was called inappropriate.
11Bump
12This really is a question for a moderator. However, I can tell you that in LEGO Club Magazine, we are not allowed to link out to any non-LEGO site, because we have no control of the content of those sites. So the same rule may apply here.

5I have only a vague memory of this.

7BIONICLE 5? BIONICLE 5 never had a script. We hadn't even gotten a story direction approved yet when the line got cancelled.
8I meant screen treatment.

21. I was wondering, how did the Great Spirit Robot seal up the hole in its body after Voya Nui returned to its original spot? If it hadn't would there still be a torrent of water flooding down on the middle of the Southern Continent?
32. Can masks show expression? I ask because it says that different characters smile, frown, etc. in the books.
43. When was the idea for the 2005 story thought up?
54. Were six Matoran planned to become what would be known as the Toa Inika from the beginning? If not, do you know when that was thought up?
65. Would Vakama and the other Turaga remember the Toa Mangai's battle with the Kanohi Dragon? Were they alive at that time?
75a. If they were, why didn't they remember Nidhiki?
8Thanks in advance.
9I believe this got buried.

9No screen treatment for BIONICLE 5 existed either. We were literally having our first meeting to discuss possible story for 2010 when we were told the line was being cancelled. So all that ever existed for this was random ideas in my head, none of which ever got reviewed or approved by the story team. Thus they are largely meaningless.

101) I assume the metal was self-repairing
112) In the movies, yes, and in the books because they worked with the movie universe. In the comics, no.
123) 2003, probably
134) I think it was decided to do Toa Inika before it was decided who they would be, so probably 2005 sometime
145) Not sure, I haven't looked at the timeline in ages.

10But you posted it on BZPower in like 2009. That is how we found out about the Earth Tribe. A quick google search of 'BIONICLE 5 Screen Treatment' will bring up your blog post...

5Yes
6By yes do you meant that the Kavinika took place in the battle? Right.
7Ok, so was the Kavinika one of the first rahi, or just one of the Rahi that Mavrah befriended/found?

11That wasn't an official screen treatment, though. As I said, that was my ideas. I never got commissioned to write a screen treatment for that movie (though I probably would have been, if the movie had been made) and none of that ever got reviewed and approved by the story team.
