1I've found this to be quite funny. Why does Spiriah have a Midak and a Trydax Pod? ???
Original#1267
1Zippy - Don't worry, it gets explained. We still have 9 chapters to go. (Midak is a lot easier to explain, actually, than the pod -- after all, the Toa's Midak was made by Artakha .. Artakha knows who the Order of Mata Nui is, and supplies them with equipment .. and Brutaka's team is working for the Order.)
2Tanaku - Since no images of summer sets have been released to the public by LEGO Company, I am not allowed to comment on them.
3More answers later ...

1Why did the Lava Hawk cross the Chute?
2The method of equiping the Adaptove Armor was left unclear. Did the Toa have the armor put over their bodies, or, being biomechanical, replace their existing bodies with that armor?
3The Bohrok have been said to evolve past having an organic portion, and the Makuta past a physical body. Any correlation?
4Are the Toa's current masks the same they had, or new ones? This question is NOT are they Kanohi Nuva, as they have the same powers and in that sense are the same masks. I am asking instead if these came with the Adoptive Armor or were their previous masks shifted by the armor.
5Pit Mutagen has little affect on organic rahi and Zyglack. Or Zyglax, or--You know. Anyways, am I correct in assuming that the mutagen is more concerned with mechanical beings then organic ones?
6On the subject of mutagen, could not Zaxtan use his protodite-comprised body to refrom into his humanoid self?
7If the mutagen is focused on mechanics rather then organics, is it becuase mechanics cannot "feel" themselves as organics can and therefore are incapable of knowing wether they've been mutated?
8If the above is true, would Maxilos not have been mutated becuase as a robot he knows exactly where his gears are?
9And if that above is true, could beings with a natural immunity to the mutagen be simply more aware of how there body is supposed to feel?
10Isn't Vamprah just fareeking awsome?
11How can you say you have no influence on Model design when your storyline is intimately correlated with it?
12Exactly how long will this Makuta MOC contest last, and do you have any hints towards winning?
13Did I really just ask that?
14And finally, to the upsetting of my fellow Mask of Destinyers, what do you think of my above fanfic? As a writer, not as a bionicle knowledge base.
15Green spiders weaving in my mindses, makes us talk...

tanaku said:1well wat i ment was like... idk... nvm lol.
2Does the Avohkii and Kraahkan (and garai) have unlimited amounts of Light, shadows, and gravity?
3Where did Spiriah get the Tridax pods if, story wise, they are new? Does he have it already (by chapter 2) or will he get it later?
4Around when will we see the Matoran on his back?
Original#1270
1Is the Brakas a combiner from the 2001 toa, and are there instructions for it anywhere?
Original#1271
1Zippy - No. If it got to the point where Tanma was that low of energy, the Midak would simply start drawing from the environment, the same way a hybrid stops drawing on the battery when it gets too low and switches to the gas engine.
2MW - 1) Took one set of armor off, put the other one. The armor is not their body, it's removable. 2) No correlation. 3) They are new adaptive Nuva. 4) Your theory doesn't work, because the zyglak are bio-mechanical as well. They are not pure organics. 4) Well, first he would need to gather more protodites, because he has lost significant mass ... he would have to constantly maintain willpower to maintain the shape ... and he would still not be able to breathe air. The snake shape is actually more efficient in water than a humanoid shape would be. 5) No. 6) No. You are ascribing an intelligence to the mutagen, as if it knows how to pick its victims. It does not. It is a natural force, that's all. 7) Simple. Storyline is created AFTER the sets are designed. All we normally give the set designers is the environment and they work from there. But I do not get consulted along the way on what the sets should look like, I work with what they give me. I neither have (nor want) input on this. 8) If you received your January BrickMaster, then you saw the deadline is March 1, I believe. If you are not a BrickMaster, you cannot enter -- it's a BM-exclusive contest. 9) No idea what fanfic you are referring to, but I am not allowed to read fan fiction regardless. 10) I have no idea -- the Brakas build predates my time on BIONICLE.
3Tanaku - 1) No. As with Kanoka disks, masks can run out of power, but it takes a really, REALLY long time. 2-3) We have eight more chapters to go in the story, all will be explained.
Original#1272
1So, if Kanohi deplete their power, is it possible to recharge them? Also, will the mask undergo any kind of change?
Original#1273
1GENERAL SORT OF QUESTI COMIN' YOUR WAY
2How many of the five senses do matoran have. I mean they're made of metal, can they feel? The other thing is can they smell or taste?
3Sort of a sub question. Do they have any additional senses?
Original#1274
1How could THE Makuta be able to see while the Phantoka Makuta couldn't? Is it because of the Mask of Shadows?
Original#1275
1They got blinded by Matoro using the Ignika.
Original#1276
1Maduk - No.
2Shiruk - Well, we know they can see ... they can hear ... they probably can taste, though of all the senses that would be that is rarely used, at least by Toa and Matoran (Rahi probably use it more often) ... they can smell ... and they can feel, and feel pain, since they are partly organic. While it is true their hands are armored, it is likely they have sensors built in of some sort that allow them the sensation of touch.
3Mask of Ovals -- Chirox, Antroz, and Vamprah were caught in the explosion of energy when the Ignika brought Mata Nui back to life. No other Makuta were, so the rest are not blind. Makuta of Metru Nui (who I assume is who you were referring to) was not even in Karda Nui when the explosion took place.

1Is the reason Takua (Dark Mirror) didnt turn into Takanuva because its not his destiny?
2If the Toa Metru never became Toa Metru/Hordika, does that mean the Mask of Light isnt in that stone (from the animations).
3Are the Toa Hagah Toa or Rahaga?
4Right now, does Takanuva look like the original set form (dark mirror)
Last Edit: by Tanaku, Toa of Light
Original#1278
1is takanuva still going to be called Takanuva, even though he isn't a nuva, or will he go back to being called Takua? Such as being called Toa Takua?
2Also, i have heard that Takanuva is going to be a Toa of Twilight in this year because of the Dark mirror allowing him to control both light and shadow. is this True?
3Any reason why 08 Takanuva is now Titan Sized?
4Are the people seen riding vehicles on the Prototype Summer sets makuta, or something else. (I'm referring to the T3, T6 and T9 Titan Sets.)
Original#1279
1Tanaku -- 1) Correct. 2) Correct. It was never stolen from Artakha in this universe. 3) Toa. 4) No. He has the colors of his 2008 set, just not the size.
2Scholzie - 1) No, we are not going to change his name, it would confuse too many people. 2) Toa of Twilight is just my nickname for him, but yes, he does have both powers. 3) Gets explained later in the year. 4) You'll find out later in the year.
Original#1280
1Greg, is Icarax wearing The Makuta Of Metru Nui's Kraahkan?
Original#1281
1Just another Takanuva question, is his mask black just to go more with the color scheme, or is it because the mask has lost some of its power, making it change to a different Color?
2Just a little question, are Takanuva's Eyes going to still be yellow in his set? i don't think that they've ever come out with the Metru/newer eye piece in yellow....... That would be nice.
3And is there any reason all of the New Nuva have Green Eyes? The only one that had green originally was lewa.
Original#1282
1TNT - Yes, he is.
2Scholzie - 1) The latter. 2) No idea, I don't have the set and our showroom set is at ToyFair. 3) Asking the wrong person, I'm not a set designer. All I can tell you is that there is no story reason for it.
Original#1283
1When is ToyFair?
2After we see the new Makuta/others who wear new kanohi, will you tell us what those Kanohi are?
3Is Takanuva's Avohkii the 03 shape or 08 shape in Dark Mirror (As of chapter two)?
4Will we find out why hes Titan like in Dark Mirror?
Original#1284
1After ToyFair, will there be any other new sets this year?
Original#1285
1Is the "Most trusted lieutenant" Mutran mentioned The MoMN?
Original#1286
1Tanaku - 1) Toy Fair is later in Feb., the 19th and 20th. 2) No. There's no point in giving away summer story info that early -- then what do we discuss in the summer? 3) He's in his '08 form, except for his size, in DM. 4) No, because that doesn't happen until later. 5) Yes.
2Mega ToaX - Normally, all summer sets are shown at ToyFair, because the point is to get retailers to place orders for them.
Original#1287
1What is your personal favorite Bionicle set/s?
Original#1288
1Thanks, but I mean after summer.
Original#1289
1Mega ToaX - We only do two release periods in the year, January and August. The next BIONCLE sets after August '08 will be Jan. '09, and those will not be at ToyFair in Feb. They show up at ToyFair in October.
2Tanaku - I tend to like the really big ones, like Kardas. I like longer builds, personally, but that's because I'm older than the average BIONICLE fan and building for display, not roleplay.
Original#1290
1Do you ever look at MoCs like in MoD's MoC section, Brickshelf, Bionicle.com's Gallery?
2"Takanuva's powers illuminated Mata Nui's true destiny, which was hidden by Makuta with the powers of his mask. As Makuta was maskless when he fell in the Protodermis, he could not hide it any longer."
3(Was on BS01 about Takutanuva) What does this mean?

4"There are multiple ways of awakening Mata Nui."
5What ways are there to awaken Mata Nui?
6What Kanohi does Miserix wear?
7Did Miserix wear the Kraahkan at one time?

1Is there more than one Kraahkan? Just in case one breaks?2Did the Manutri get into Karda Nui?3Why am I asking about the Manutri? They're gun-slinging penguins. Why wouldn't I ask!?4Is Zaktan going to become a major villian? Is he technically the new Irnakk?
Original#1292
1Tanaku -- 1) No, I really don't have the spare time. 2) No idea, doesn't sound like something I wrote. 3-5) You'll find out later in story.
2Toa of Whimsy - 1) Not to my knowledge. 2) No. 3) There aren't plans to do much with Zaktan at the moment, since he's in snake form, can't breathe air, and is imprisoned by the Order on Daxia.
Original#1293
1 Are you ever permitted to see the set prototypes before they come out? When does the next bionicle comic come in the mail? I'm waiting. And, who is Mazeka? is he/she a set this year?
Last Edit: by Mega ToaX

1Will we have a picture of Miserix? As in, will he be a set, combiner, build from spare pieces, etc.
2Will we see Mazeka at the ToyFair?

1Speaking of Miserix ("Misery")...2WHERE HAVE GONE TEH FUNKY NAMES NOT BASED ON ENGLISH WORDS, MR. FARSHTEY??
3Try Arabic or something that people won't feel as threatened by you simply using their language as the Maori people.4Please any language BUT english for BIONICLE names. It feels... Punny.5Look, I'll even give you some urdu words:
6Siyah: Black.7Kaala: Also Black.8Khutrnakk: Dangerous9Khaufnakk: Scary10Zalzala: Earthquake11Hungama: Chaos12Haivan: Animal

13Really, no one'll care. Just use them.
14Can a Makuta survive despite dissipation if he's in a vacuum- because there is nothing else but Makuta in said Vacuum?
15Speaking of which... A Toa of Sonics is helpless in a Vacuum, right?
