11) No, they don't need a full year for a book. I would be writing books for January the summer before, usually, so they probably won't need to get a writer going before December.

22) Remind me what your question was?

 

33) I would say none. I really can't think of a BIONICLE character who was very much like me.

4Oh OK then that makes more sense. My other question was:

5What do you think was the most interesting story aspect of BIONICLE (the original, not the new)?

6Thanks for answering my questions, I really appreciate it

1Reposting buried questions from earlier (couldn't figure out how to quote it so ill just copy and past them)

2I have a few questions regarding Bionicle

31. Does the Mask of Creation that Ekimu wears look exactly like the one Artakha wears?

42. If a Matoran on Voya Nui transformed into a Toa while they still believed the Piraka were Toa, would he end up looking like a Skakdi or a strange Toa/Skakdi hybrid -ish thing?

53. Is there a Mask of Control or a counterpart of it in the Gen1 universe?

63b. If so, would it look exactly the same as the one in the Gen2 universe?

74. Why didnt Teridax kill the Turaga during his takeover? 

85. Does Voporak still possess the Mask of Time

1Hi Greg

 

21 - If the Inika masks were not mutated, would their shape differ or it would remain the same ?

32 - Was Vakama's visions something given to his programming during his creation ?

43 - There's already a mask of Gravity, Shadows and Light. It is safe to assume that a Mask of the others elements exist as well ?

53.5 - How would a mask of water work ?

64 - How Nocturn was killed ?

75 - Is Hydraxon "Mask" his face or a Helmet ?
8Thanks

1Hi Greg, I have a couple questions about the backstory of the Dark Hunter codenamed Prototype.

2In his biography on BS01 (and presumably also in the Dark Hunter book, but I don't own it), it says that he was once a Toa of Earth and a Toa of Fire, who were stumbled upon by another Dark Hunter. At the time, said Dark Hunter was looking for beings to test the Spear of Fusion on, so when the two Toa combined themselves, he took the opportunity to then fuse the two Toa together permanently using the spear. So...

31) According to BS01, any amount of Toa can enter a fusion, as long as that amount is MORE than two. This would mean that the two Toa could not have naturally formed this fusion unless one of them used the Mask of Fusion (one of the masks that you canonized a while back) to form it. Can you confirm that this was the case?

42) Why did at least one of the two Toa choose to combine at that moment? Was it because they saw the unknown Dark Hunter approach them, and decided that they would have a better chance at fighting him or her off if they were fused together?

5Thanks again for your time

1There was a cancelled PC game that was meant to be canon called BIONICLE: The Legend of Mata Nui. In that game, there was a rahi called the Fikou-Nui. If you look it up, you can see that it is a larger version of the Fikou... very larger. 

 

2So I was wondering. Where did this rahi come from? It is on the island of Mata Nui in the game. I believe it is in Onu-Wahi. Was it created as a lone rahi, the only one of it's kind. Is it a sub-species of the Fikou, or just a "close relative"?  Was it an escapee from the archives that made its way to Mata Nui? So many questions, probably little answers...

3Hmmm. The only BIONICLE PC game I can recall being cancelled was from 2001. Anyway, unfortunately, you have sort of answered your own question -- cancelled PC game that was going to be canon equals stuff that did not become canon. So no info exists on this. The person who was working on the game on the LEGO end hasn't even worked here since 2005.

4Can you make the Fikou-Nui a canon rahi? It doesn't really affect any pre-established canon. We have a couple pictures of it. And it is awesome... And I just really like Fikou!

1Thank you for replying, Mr. Farshtey!  I've thought up some new questions:

 

1. 2Were all Toa Hagah teams comprised of six members, or did the numbers vary by Makuta?
2. 3Do the inorganic forms of the Toa Inika’s Kanohi resemble their organic forms, at least to some extent (I ask because the Kanohi of Jovan and Tobduk are depicted as identical in their set forms)?
3. 4Since Shadow Kraata are able to speak Matoran, can they also speak when operating a Rahkshi, or does the suit impair their speech?
4. 5The set form of Miserix’s dragon form is depicted with a bladed staff-like weapon. Was this weapon his tool in his default Makuta form, just enlarged, or did he wield a different weapon?
5. 6Was Icarax originally intended to be a set incarnation of Teridax (because of the Kraahkan), or was he always supposed to be a separate Makuta?
6. 7Were the shapes of the Mistika Makuta’s masks significantly altered by the waters of the Karda Nui swamp, or did they still resemble their original forms to some extent?

8Thank you very much!  I hope you have a great day!

9These got lost a while ago.  I also just thought of a couple more:

1. 10Do all of Sidorak's species (the Steltian aristocrats) wear red armor, or can they be other colors as well?
2. 11Similarly, do allof Krekka's species look like Krekka, with blue-white coloration, or can they vary as well?

12Thanks so much for still being here to answer our questions!

1About how old do you think Gresh is? We know that he's young for a glatorian, but does that mean given their lifespans? And how old do you think Ackar is?

2P.S. Thanks so much for answering all these fan questions during Bionicle's hiatus.

1Hi Greg! I have some questions about the Bionicle univerce, 2 about the old story, and most about the new:

2I was watching Bionicle 2: Legends of Metru Nui, and notised something: when Nidhiki calls Lhikan "brother" in the begining of the movie, and Lhikan says "You lost the right to call me brother a long time ago!" I got me thinking, was Nidhiki a toa on Lhikan's team once? and if so, is there a toa code or set of rules that when broken the toa who broke them becomes a dark hunter? 

3Now for the new plot questions:

1. 4Are you writig the story line this time?
2. 5why arn't you writing the books this time?
3. 6what's all this about Makuta being the brother of Ekimu, and them being mask makers?
4. 7And Makuta being evil because he put on a mask with too much power? what's wrong with the complex specise of Makuta, who deside they could take over after defeting a rebelion, and then having the leder take on the specise name?
5. 8And why are the villagers called defenders? Matoran and Agori are cooler names.
6. 9the new storyline sounds sort of simplistic, will it get more complicared later on?

10Please do not get me wrong, I'm not complaining or trying to insult, there only questions, and if for confadential reasons you can't answer some of my questions, I'm ok with that.

1So, you've said before that you have no grand plan for the ending of the (original) storyline, but can you at least answer this:

2Would it have ended in tragedy, or comedy?

1Hey Greg I have some questions on antidermis.

21. If a makuta's antidermis is damaged it will regenerate itself, correct?

3 1.1 assuming the above is true, would a makuta's antidermis placed in an enclosure larger than the mass of the antidermis generate more of itself to fill the enclosure?

4  1.2 assuming both of the above were true, if someone enclosed a makuta's antidermis in a box, and the walls of that box expanded until the antidermis had twice as much mass as it did before being enclosed, and a divider was placed in the middle of the box, would that result in the makuta being essentially cloned?
