Pretty much "no". No toy store (or any store) sells Bionicles, as the theme has been considered technically dead for four years. You can buy them online, but finding them in a store would basically be a miracle. That said, however, I got the set 8698 Vultraz for my birthday- the year was 2010. Apparently my uncle had found the set in Toys R Us on a shelf- a set that (unbeknownst to him) hadn't been sold in over a year. So no store SHOULD be selling Bionicle, but you just never know what you'll find sometimes.


At times, stores will find boxes of stuff in their backroom and put it out on the shelf. They are certainly allowed to sell it (they bought it from LEGO, after all), but it is rare these days. Still, I have seen 2010 BIONICLE sets on shelves in TRU as recently as last year.

Hey, Greg!

 

     So...... I was playing MNOG (which is mostly cannon),  and when you go to enter Ko-Koro, you have to pass a viewscreen, which appears to be a security camera system (even though Mata Nui technology was primative). Did Ko-Koro actually have some sort of security viewscreen technology, or is this again not cannon?


That would seem to me to be too high tech for Mata Nui island.

I see. Alright, moar questions!

 

1.) Do the Kestora have any special powers? If so, what powers do they have?

 

2.) By the time the story came to a halt, were there still a lot of beings that hadn't evacuated the MU yet?

 

3.) Is the Red Star partially organic?

 

4.) How (and why) did the Red Star turn Jaller and co. into the Inika?

 

5.) Did Gaardus really break the return function of the Red Star?

 

Once again, thank you for answering our questions!


1) Not that I am aware of

2) Some

3) No

4) Well, we know the how -- electrical discharge -- as to the why, because it was destiny that that happen

5) No. The Kestora accusing him was the same as if you are the last person to use the toaster and then it breaks, people will say you broke it even if it actually broke on its own.

Was that the one Kopeke was watching? Because that was actually some ice crystals reflecting through a network to the places it looked out atWinkJoking :bionicle_nerd: Joking

So, as you said once, an Infected Kanohi on Spherus Magna would make a sapient wearer "more like Akhmou", or make a Rahi more aggressive. How would you describe "more like Ahkmou" in terms that someone who did not know who Akhmou was would understand?

Oh, and one other thing. Would a Toa Kaita whose mask was a Mohtrek combined with two other masks be able to use his/her mask to summon past versions of its "component" Toa? I understand that Toa don't usually wear Mohtrek, since using it disrupts the time-stream.

It seems like you overlooked these questions, so I'm reposting them. My apologies if that wasn't the case.

 

  1. How exactly was Charger transformed from a Kane-Ra into a Dark Hunter? Or will that stand as one of the great mysteries of our time? Joking
  2. Mimic was primarily motivated by a desire to find his longtime friend, whom TSO had imprisoned in his Odina fortress. After Odina was overrun by Rahkshi, what was the fate of this companion?
  3. Additionally, was Mimic's companion of the same species as him, or a different one?
  4. Subterranean was sent by TSO to discuss an alliance between the Dark Hunters and some Frostelus. What was the result of these negotiations?
  5. Did Tyrant survive his encounter with the Toa during the Toa/Dark Hunter War on Metru Nui?

When Makuta Teridax died in Bara Magna, did the Matoran Universe disappeared after being evacuated, or is it still lying in the surface of Spherus Magna?

Yes


And can you describe them?

To return at the Mask of Creation, it's said that its destruction would pull the loss of capacity to create for the inhabitants of the MU. Because that the mask can create and modify the matter, its destruction would also entail the end or the outburst of all the fundamental interactions of the matter inside the MU?

Corrupt.

 

However, this is an extremely unlikely circumstance. There are no more Makuta to infect masks and the Toa are overseeing the salvage operation, so i doubt they would allow infected masks to be brought to Spherus Magna.

No. The combination of the three masks results in a new mask. You don't get access to the powers of the individual masks.
