you have a kid i did not know that and how old are you 

---

I am 48, and I have a 3 year old daughter.

---

Does your kid like LEGO?

---

My daughter messes around with DUPLO a little bit, but she is 3, so she is too young for System sets. She is just starting to get into playing pretend in general.

Greg, is time trevel possible in the Bionicle Universe?

---

No, it's not. We decided early on not to allow that, because it would be too easy to  mess up the story if Toa could just go back in time and change things.

Could the Red Star's teleportation system be fixed so that it would teleport individuals to the surface of Spherus Magna, instead of to the Mata Nui Robot?

Not impossible.

Question of Randomness:  What is your opinion on the 'Terminator' franchise?

Saw the first two films, did not see any of the others. Wasn't really my thing. Not an Arnold fan.

Hi greg I was wondering how you think the toa inika would have done if the piraka also had mask powers.

---

Toa would still have won, since LEGO would never allow a story where the bad guys won in the end

1. High. A few months ago you interviewed by The Three Virtues though thatts not a significant fact. In one of their later podcasts they stated ninjago was originally intended to be cancelled until an uprising of people called to contest the decision. It was given a reboot due to the fact that parents, a group of consumers, called to challenge the decision. And thus the fan base of Bionicle where considered fans and not consumers, not the people who would generate money. When bionicle had been cancelled, do you think that it would have been brought back if adults called in to dispute the decision?

 

2. Are you the type of writer who devises an outline to a peice or the type to rant (Just write and think) style a paper then edit later?

 

3. Do you have any regrets as far as the way you've deisigned certain bionicle plot details?

---

1) I have never been informed that fan calls had anything to do with the decision on Ninjago. But I can tell you that there were loads of fan calls when the announcement was made that BIONICLE was ending. The difference between the two lines is that Ninjago's sales were still very strong in its "last" year and BIONICLE's were not.

2) No, I don't outline.

3) Nothing that I came up with, no.

Thanks for answering all of our questions Greg.

1) I didn't work on Universe, so I can't speak to this.

2) Oh, sure. I am not a MOCer so I am always impressed at what other people can do with bricks.
