What is the Great Spirit Robot made of? It would greatly aid our conversation.


It's made of metallic protodermis, I believe.


Alrighty. Time to resume discussion. Joking Thanks!

Hey Greg, did they make chima to cover up all the badness of ninjago and try to attempt to make ninjago look good? Because Chima is at least 4x (Not using hyperbole) worst then Ninjago and Ninjago from  1-100 is at least acording to me and most people I know 35-40. Just saying, but Chima make ninjago look good. Is this what they were aiming for?


Ivan - Sorry, I don't see this as a serious question worthy of answer.


OH SNAP. YOU JUST GOT BURNED BY THE MAN WHO CREATED THE THEME YOU IDOLIZE SO MUCH, IVAN. I WOULD MAKE AN IVAN THE TERRIBLE JOKE HERE, BUT I CAN'T THINK OF ANY.

1) LEGO wasn't being sold in the US until I was a little past it in age. I mostly played with action figures as a kid.

2) BIONICLE

3) Mmmmm ... maybe Super Heroes, in terms of my actual collecting. Ninjago and Chima are both fun to write for.

2) They didn't have video games when I was a kid.

3) No

Hello Mr. Farshtey! Happy I don't know if you were asked this before already, I apologize if you were, but do you ever build any MOCs of your own? If so, what's your favorite kind of stuff to build? Thanks! Happy

Probably would have been characters from my pre-LEGO books. My LEGO books have lots of great characters in them, but most of them are based on sets so they aren't really characters I "created."

No, I don't have any talent for MOCing.
