21. see the post pertaining to Avatar... the fluids would still be inside them, although i suppose removing them would be a nifty way to "eliminate" an opponent, if for whatever reason a water toa decided to do that!
32. so...
43. fair enough, although what was the deal with the lava monster? wishing for your speedy recovery.
51) I have no familiarity with Avatar at all, so citing that really doesn't help me much. I just really don't see this as something LEGO would allow, as I said.
63) I really don't recall, all of that stuff was written nine years ago now.
71. it would be exactly like you had zaria do in "the yesterday quest" with the metal body parts, except the water toa would instead be grabbing hold of the water inside the cells of their organic components, instead of the mechanical components. (btw Avatar is a great series... if you ever have time, you won't regret watching it. (it would be fun for your daughter as well.))
82. does that make sense for how ice toa make their environment cold without controlling something that isn't their element (heat/air)?
93. fair enough
104. (new question) What do you think of the potential success/failure of the new bionicle line, considering most of the fans are in their late teens/early twenties by now?
111) I've already answered this
122) Yes
134) You are making a false assumption. BIONICLE 2015 is targeted at the same people original BIONICLE was aimed at -- boys, ages 8-11. The intent is attract a new fanbase to the line. If we only aim at people in their late teens/early 20s, it is doubtful we would sell enough sets to make the line profitable.

2Amen.
3But anyway, I do have some questions:
4- What happened to Jaller's Hau? Wasn't it left in Daxia or someplace and then the MU crashed...
5- Isn't the MU supposed to fill up with mutagen should it's spirit die? Now that Makuta's dead, could all that mutagen leak to Spherus Magna?
6- If the Ignika is "alive", what happens to it's conciousness now that Mata Nui is living in it?
7Thanks.

5Wha... did you get a new LEGO.com account, Mr. Farshtey?

1Just wanted to say a quick something --
2A lot of you guys are BIONICLE fans, many from way back. It's no secret that you are some of the smartest, most loyal, and most dedicated fans out there. You, and you alone, have carried the torch for the line over the last four years. Hopefully, you will feel rewarded for your efforts by 2015 BIONICLE.
3Regardless, I wanted to take this opportunity to say that I am really proud to be associated with you, and you should be really proud of yourselves.
4Thanks, Mr. Farshtey! Thank you for staying loyal to us the whole way.
5I can't wait to see what the story team has cooked up for us. I'll definitely try to get a set or two.
6I do have a question, by the way, something that I don't fully understand:
7What would the Alternate Teridax be trying to do, now that he is out of the GSR and hanging out on a planet totally alien to him? He's a pretty powerful character, after all. Will he try and help rebuild society? Does Velika know that he exists, and, if so, will he try to eliminate him?
8Firox! So glad to see you! Haven't seen you in FOREVER!

6It doesn't say official, I say it is a fake.
21. You said that zaktan was a mutant then is that zaktan is the only mutant in the MU of3The MU or there are others mutants in the MU that have not been revealed?
42. The protodermis is it a magical matter or is it a very advanced technology?
53. Since there is not the GB and Mata nui and probably not artakha to create other specie like the6Matoran and skakdi. And the people of the MU can not to reproduce is that the people of the MU are7Doomed in extinction in the years to comes?
84. Is that the story of the G2 of bionicle Will a complex story like the G1 of bionicle of it will a simple story like9Ninjago and chima?
105. The GB are it the first intelligent specie of spherus magna?
11Thank you

2Two questions...
31. In the Destiny War serial, there was a passage regarding some short pale bipeds with yellow eyes that look completely organic to Helryx, if I remember correctly. Could you elaborate on who/what these beings are for me? Or are they just some nameless rahi that were relatively unimportant to the story? I don't think the serial ever made it clear what they were. (Humans? Just kidding, I know you've debunked that theory many times over)
42. Also, did you, Christian Faber or anyone involved in Bionicle ever have a fixed design of what you envisioned the Great Beings would look like? If so, would you describe their general appearance (other than Velika, as he is only a Great Being's mind inside a Matoran body)? Or, did just no one on the Bionicle story dev team ever decide on what they ought to look like, and the Great Beings were just kept as mysterious beings working in the shadows?
5Thanks for your time; as a fan from year one, I truly appreciate it.
61) I really don't recall, it was ages ago that I wrote that.
72) To the best of my knowledge, nothing existed that depicted a GB, because there had never been plans to reveal them. That might changed for 2011 or later, I don't know, but as of 2008 when the cancellation announcement was made internally, we had not done any work on that.
8Wait... they had plans to end the theme dating back to 2008? Does this mean they had already cancelled whatever they had planned originally for 2010 back then?

9Hi Xeara,
10Nothing had officially been planned for 2010 yet at that point. We were just starting to have discussions about 2010. The decision to end the line was communicated to the story team in September of 2008.

121) I see no reason why there would be only one mutant in the entire universe.
132) It's an artificially created substance. Magic has nothing to do with it.
143) No, because they can be created through tech, and that tech exists on Spherus Magna, it just has to be found. Turaga, for example, know how to make more Matoran.

124) I can't discuss future story plans -- for one thing, I am not on the BIONICLE 2015 story team. But I do not agree that Ninjago has a simple storyline. Ninjago actually has a pretty complex story, if you follow all of it.
135) I doubt it.
