why velika wants rule them residents of Spherus Magna?

Because he feels that the disaster on Spherus Magna happened because of poor, weak leadership by the Great Beings. He feels a stronger hand is needed.

But if the 2003 Teridax had vanished... How would he be able to summon the 2001 Teridax?

Ah, see, that is where you are getting into alternate timelines, Botven. It's like this:

Timeline A has 2003 Makuta use the Mohtrek to summon 2001 Makuta. 2001 Makuta dies in 2003, eliminating 2003 Makuta.

 

At that point, Timeline B is created where Makuta died in 2001 and none of the events he was involved in from then on in Timeline A ever happened.

 

Again, it goes back to the example I cited before. You go back in time and accidentally cause the death of your grandfather. You HAD to exist to go back in time and cause that to happen, but you CAN'T exist because he never brought your father into being. You have created a paradox, and the resolution of it is the creation of a new timeline in which you never existed.

---

Ah, I see... That couldn't happen in real life, but it's an interesting concept for the Bionicle world. Thanks for answering those questions Your help is much appreciated

 

 

---

Actually it could...

This problem was always heavily researched by physicists around the world and though there is (yet) no way to test this, this is what would most likely happen.

---

But since alternate universes don't exist, we can safely say that time travel is impossible (except for god.)

 

 

---

How do we know alternate universes don't exist? There has long been a theory that every time you make a decision, another reality is created in which you made the opposite decision. That is the basis for pretty much every "what if" story out there. There is no proof that they DO exist, but there is also no proof that they don't.

3) Yes, the Nya-Cole-Jay thing was in the story bible, which normally contains a synopsis of each episode.

 

4) I like Jay better as a character, but I think that Nya would be happier with Cole in the long run.

Oh...wow. You just gave me insight on how you work in relation to the show. Wow, that explains so much. Thank you.

 

As an avid reader of the Graphic Novels(I don't own #4, #6, or #7 yet, but I borrowed #4 from the library and will buy them all soon), I am quite excited for #10, The Phantom Ninja. I recall you saying this is NOT the Phantom Ninja from Cole: Ninja of Earth. Is there something you can(Or want to) tell us about this new Ninja? Perhaps his power or skill, or a random personality trait?

Don't assume it's a "he"

We get a bible for each year of Chima, so anything that shows up in that year will be in that bible. I have no idea how far ahead the Chima team plans story, since I am not on that team, so I cannot answer what was or was not planned at the beginning of 2013.

Ooh, I love the Bible! I read it almost every day.

 

How far ahead do you receive your Story Bibles? How long does it take to read through each of them? Is it very in-depth, or just a quick overview?

 

And if you still own your Chima Story Bible, I have been wondering. In the Chima Ultimate Sticker Book, it says Eris has a sort of crush on Laval. In the show, while they seem to like each other(Going places together a lot, hanging out a lot...), Eris also seems to develop feelings for Rogon, who has feelings for her too. Does the Chima Story Bible say who she likes better?

---

1) It varies. The BIONICLE story bibles were very thick. The Chima and Ninjago ones less so, because you also have the TV scripts to read. Normally, I get a story bible six months to a year before product launches, because I need it to write.

2) No, I don't think it does

Mr. Farshtey,

 

                      It's really quite a privilege to be able to ask you a few questions here. This year is my tenth of being a Bionicle fan (I'm almost 15) and no story, in any medium, has ever captivate me in the same way as Bionicle has. I have three questions for you:

 

1) Do you continue to visit BZpower and update your blog there, even occasionally? If you could find time to re-visit the site, then many Bionicle fans, including myself, would greatly appreciate your presence there.

 

2) Do you ever make appearances at LEGO conventions, such as the Brick Cons, or at general pop culture conventions, such as the Comic-Cons? In particular, it would be great if you could come to the Emerald City Comic Con or the Seattle Brick Con, since I live in Seattle and typically don't travel for fan conventions.

 

3) Would you ever consider posting a concluding chapter to The Yesterday Quest, and a concluding chapter to The Powers that be on BioSector01.com? (BS01)   

Thank you for your time.

1) The only reason I  left BZP is because LEGO's social media policies do  not allow employees to post on non-LEGO sites that might have members under 13 years of age. Since BZP has no age verification policy in place, I am not allowed to post there anymore.

2) I used to go to San Diego Comic Con every year to autograph BIONICLE comics, up until 2009. But now that BIONICLE is over, there is no real reason for me to go to this sort of thing. I miss it sometimes, but that's just change.

3) I'd like to, it's just a matter of whether I can find time to do it right. I don't want to knock something off that is lousy, just to do something, you know?

If a fans moc were to become an official set would you try to figure out a way to work it into the official storyline.

That has happened a number of times. Back when BIONICLE was active, we did numerous contests that resulted in fan-built models becoming part of the official story.

But then there would be a colossal ammount of alternate dimensions, so much so that one of them would have penetrated ours in some way before now.

Yes, there would be ... a potentially infinite number. Most likely, they would vibrate at a different speed than ours, making it impossible for us to make physical contact or even be aware they are there. So 1 alt. or a million, the odds don't really go up that we would make contact with one, because the tech required to do so does not exist and probably won't until goodness knows when.
