22. If not, how were they going to end?

33. Did/do you have any other stories planned after those two?

4Thank you for your time.

51) Doubtful. LEGO wants the focus on new BIONICLE and new BIONICLE story, so there is no reason for them to pursue doing more old story.

62) I don't outline my stories. They end when they get to the ending.

73) No.

21) How many dark hunters were there?

 

32) You have stated that there is no romance in the MU. Then what would you call the reletionship beetween hewkii and macku/Jaller and hali?

 

43) Could a mask of a certin shape have the power of another?

 

54) Was there a reason Mazeka was as big as an av-matoran or was this because that was just the matoran build for the year?

 

65) Are the matoran on metru-nui called metrutoran or metruan?

 

76) Is protodermis an element or a compound?

8Although this is directed at Mr. Farshtey, I feel like I know enough to answer this one:

9At first, these seemed to be intended as romance. However, as to not turn Bionicle into a soap opera, romance was decannonized. From then on, this simply became more like a strong bond between friends, almost like a close brother and sister.

10Any other comments/elaborations/corrections appreciated.

111) I don't have actual numbers for this. They kept the size of their organization a secret, after all.

122) I would call it "something the web producer thought was cute at the time when we did not know BIONICLE would last longer than one year."

133) Yes. A mask maker can carve a disk into whatever shape he wants, but he risks confusing the wearer who expects one thing and gets another.

144) The latter

155) Matoran. Metruan is a fan term, not a BIONICLE term.

166) Unknown. Very little work was ever done by the story team on defining protodermis, since we did not need to do so to tell our story.

1Hey Greg,

2       Was there ever anything you wanted to explore in the BIONICLE story line you ever wanted to pursue that TLG said no to? Thank you.

3No, not that I can recall. I don't think I ever did anything that was really controversial or crossed the line for a LEGO property.

11) Any particular reason to why you decided to kill Carapar ? DId you had to ask the Story team for this ?

 

22) a) Vakama tried to do something with the Vahi when confronting Teridax, but failed really hard. What was his intention when he used the power of the mask ?

3b) He used the power of the Vahi even though he had not yet discovered how to use his own Huna. How was that possible ?

41) It made sense for the story to kill one of the Barraki under the circumstances, and I felt he was the one who contributed the least, since he was basically just muscle. And I had to clear it with the marketing team, to make sure there was no issue with killing a character whose set might still be available in some places.

 

52) In what story?

21) What has happened to Nektann's spiked Muaka pet now that he has been imprisoned? Have the Toa let it loose into the wild, and it has maybe joined the other Muaka in migrating to parts unknown? 

32) Do female Skakdi have any unique traits that differentiate them from the males? I ask because we have never seen any in sets, comics or movies, and there were no named female Skakdi characters seen in the story.

43) In MNOG, there is a Matoran who looks absolutely identical to Tehutti in MNOGII, right down to the colour of the eyes and occupation, but he is never named. Can we assume this is him?

54) Is the Codrex still intact?

7Vakama was trying to slow down time around Makuta. His problem was he also slowed it down around himself. As for his using the mask -- I believe, like many skills, it is partly a matter of not overthinking and just relaxing and letting the power happen. If you overthink, it gets in the way of your willpower working on the mask. Vakama was in a crisis, he couldn't think, he had to just act, so he was able to trigger the mask if not control it.

81) Not to my knowledge

92) We don't know that Glatorian ever used these weapons. It was never stated that they had.

 

103) I would guess protosteel. Exsidian is primarily known for being resistant to energized protoderrmis and it is a very strong metal, but I lean toward protosteel.

 

114) Unknown

 

125) Don't know, I don't recall ever identifying what they were in story.

 

136) No. Mata Nui was a robot, there would be no reason for  his AI to allow him to get romantically involved. What would be the point? His job was to explore the solar system, return to Spherus Magna, fix the planet, and then most likely be deactivated. His job was not to go on dates.

142) We haven't seen physical gender differences in other species, I doubt we would see it there.

186) It would make sense, but I have not spent time on which disk makes what.

 

1 Was Takua always planned to become a Toa, or was that decided later onThinking?

1Good evening, Greg! Some things that have been on my mind lately:

 

21) Matoran serve the purpose of keeping the giant robot alive and working, they in a way act as his blood. Then there are the Toa. They are the failsafe in case something threatens the Matoran. The job of Makuta is to create Rahi, like the Great Beings did. What purpose do the Rahi serve for the giant robot? Surely they were not just decoration and served a purpose..

 

32) What would happen (or would have happened) to the great spirit robot if every Rahi in the Matoran Universe was killed?

 

43) Do dead Rahi get teleported to the Red Star? Since they can be created by Makuta they should not have the necessity of being re-embodied in there.

 

54) At which point was Makuta Teridax told that he along with every other inhabitant of the Matoran Universe was living inside a giant robot? By who?

 

 

6Thanks for your time!

1Hello Greg I have some questions about the GB to ask you.

 

2You said that the GB does not have the technology to accelerate the evolution of other species. However they made a mask able to control life. So why the GB can not create a machine able to accelerate the evolution of other species?

 

3the GB have created the city as the city of Metru nui or the city of Artakha who was a very futuristic city. So why the GB did not builds a similar city for people of Spherus Magna?

 

4You recently said that swords of atakus was made from a prototype technology of the GB. Is that the GB have created other thing with this technology?

 

5The GB would be able to create an unlimited source of energy that would be capable of powered the city for many decades? 

 

6When you said that the GB does not have the technology for the interstellar travel is that this is because they have really not the technology for this or is it because the GB do not feel the need to do it but they could do it? It is true that Mata Nui was not equipped for the interstellar travel but it does not forget that the task of Mata Nui was to explore the cultures of other planets in the solar system to avoid future conflicts and give him the information necessary to reform SM not explore the others galaxy. 

 

7The GB have mechanical implants like Glatorian?

 

8Sorry for all these questions about the GB but I need this info for a fan fiction about the GB that i will write.

1Whoa.Surprised I didn't know this was still here.Joking

 

2Greg, I have become a huge fan of your Ninjago Novels!HappyParty
