As I have said before, I never pictured what the old one looked like, so I do not know if it looks like the new one.

Wouldn't there have to be? The Kestora have to eat, right?

Hi mr Greg
1. Why does there's not many GB? I have a theory that some of GB have quit spherus magna before the discovery of EP for colonized the others planets or exploring the galaxy. The other GB have remained on SM this would explain why does there's not many of GB.
2. The GB may die of old age? Or the GB have an special implant for stop or slow the aging?
3. The kanohi mask are magical mask or a form of advanced technology?
4. The species that were altered by the GB Like the skopio and iron wolf can still reproduce? Or it have lost this ability?
5. What is the extended of telepathic power of tren krom? It has been mentioned that it was huge even more powerful than those of makuta. Can you give me an exemple of what TK can do of more that the makuta please.
6. During my last question you said that the GB does not have the interstellar travel. Is that the GB have the technology for travel through the wormhole? And in same time i also wondered if the GB have the tech for accelerate the evolution of other species?
7. The GB have accelerate the evolution of some species of spherus magna Like the agori and glatorian and vorox? Or the GB have preferred to watch the species of SM evolved naturally?
8. What role will play the red star now that the MU is destroyed? I would think that the GB Angonce will improve the RS so he can resurrect the ancient people of the MU. Maybe the people of SM.
1) The Great Beings have not engaged in personal space travel, no.
2) Unknown
3) In old story, they were a product of GB technology. I do not know what they are in new story. There was no magic in old story.
4) I see no reason they would have lost the ability. They were not neutered.
5) I don't have this information off the top of my head.
6) No and no
7) No
8) Well, if you think about it, the Mata Nui robot achieved its mission. So why would the GBs care about the red star? MN was a machine full of nanotech and the machine has served its purpose.

Hey Greg:
1) Are krana AI controlled like the other MU inhabitants?1) Not sure what you mean by "controlled" in this case.
Well, are they AI constructs like Matoran and Toa?
Probably, yes.
Sorry if I'm barraging you with questions 
1) Did Lesovikk hunt down and kill the Zyglak who were responsible for his team's death?
2) I have a theory about where Matoran are made in the MU. You know how in the human body, new blood cells are created in the bone marrow? Well, do you think the Matoran could be created in the cores of Mata Nui's limb superstructure, underneath the islands and inside the framework?
3) Is the protodermis ocean surrounding the islands in the MU supposed to act like a cushion, protecting the internal systems from harm similar to body fat in the human body?
4) I have another theory about the brains of the MU inhabitants...but I don't want to annoy you with this topic, or act like I'm trying to put words in your mouth, so I'll ask for permission. Is it okay with you if I share it?
Why do you hate bionicle fans to the point of not revealing The Shadowed One's name ?

Dude, what you said about Greg hating Bionicle fans COULD NOT be farther from the truth. He sets aside his own time for this. Be grateful of that.

This is one of the is untrue and ungrateful posts I have seen on the MBs, ever.
I'm fairly certain that if Mr. Farshtey hated us, he wouldn't be here offering his time to speak with us and give us insightful information. =P He doesn't wish to reveal The Shadowed Ones name in fear of fan bashlash, which is what he received when fans voted to know either Makuta's name (which was revealed to be Teridax since they voted for it), or the Shadowed Ones. It's for the best he keeps it a secret, for all parties involved. =)

1) Are the effects of shrink and enlarge Kanoka permanent or temporary?
2) Did Garan and the other Voya Nui Matoran keep their Karzahni forms after emigrating to Spherus Magna?
3) If Matoran Universe creatures can't actually reproduce, why divide them into "species"?
Thanks.

Has nothing to do with hating anybody. As noted above, when we revealed Teridax's name, we got a lot of very hostile backlash,. That said, Teridax had to be named, to differentiate him from the other Makuta. TSO does not need to be named -- he has a perfectly good name -- and any name we give him is just going to set off another round of complaining. I see no reason to do that to add an element to story that is completely irrelevant. Unless you are planning to send him a birthday card, you don't need to know his real name.
2. Since there is totally new Bio, couldn't fans make MOC contests for characters from old Bio that we don't know how they looks ?
You could just make cannon a winner. In original Bio is so much characters that we don't know how they looks, so if you could let fans do only few of them it could be cool.
Maybe only not popular or death characters if more popular like Arthaka is a problem, for example, rest of Toa Hagah, Toa Dume, Toa Nidhiki, Toa Naho, Lhikan as a matoran etc.
If you can't continues story of old Bio you could at last let fans create appearance of few characters, in other way we will never know how they looks, because LEGO started new Bio.

even though they are totally organic? would that mean that matoran brains are at least partially organic?

What about elemental powers? (and other powers?). Those abilities clearly defy the universe's laws of physics (referring to bionicle's laws of physics... otherwise elements would respond to everyone, not just those with the powers). I agree that we can't call those powers "magic", at least not in the traditional "spell-casting" sense, but i don't think we can call it purely tech either. perhaps tech was how they achieved those powers, but the powers themselves can't be tech.

Thormmen wrote:Hi Greg,
If a Toa who already completed his/her destiny were to be locked up for a long period of time in the vicinity of an activated Nui Stone, long enough for the Nui Stone to completely drain the Toa of Toa Energy, what would happen? We saw these possibilities:
1) The Toa would be left with zero Toa Energy but remain a Toa. Since he/she never gave up any of his/her Toa Energy willingly, and will never be able to do so again because he/she is "empty", he/she will never be able to turn into a Turaga.
(...)
Which, if any, of these options is the correct one?
Many thanks!I personally would lean toward #1, however -- you could also have a case where the Toa is locked up and CHOOSES to remain so for some reason (maybe to protect others), and so could become a Turaga because he chose to remain in a situation where his energies were drained.
If the Toa chooses to remain in a situation where his energies are drained, does it matter whether he knows that his energies are drained? E.g. if he chooses to stay in his prison, but he does not know that there's a Nui stone lying right next to it, would he still become a Turaga?
Yes
yes it matters, or yes he would become a turaga?
