You definitely said that their appearance in the movie was canon, to my recollection, with their muscle tissue, and more filled out and less gappy look. Can't remember if you said anything about the hands, but I seem to remember you saying that the hand design in the movie was canon too, and they did had fingers. Sorry if this conversation seems pointless or something... :/ I don't want to waste any time, it is just very interesting to me. Maybe the hands have fingers, but they are also magnetic? And it's electro-magnetism, which could explain how they are able to hold things that are not made of metal. Or are all Protodermis really a kind of metal? Also, on Bara Magna, Bota Magna and Spherus Magna the world was not made out of protodermis, so how can they still pick things up there? Maybe this is where the electro-magnetic thing comes into play. Or they built fingers. Who knows?

I don't really understand your question. If I needed to defeat one of the Toa Nuva ... why would I need to do that?

Another question: does the Golden Armour only give Tahu the powers of Kraata that he destroys, or of any being that he destroys?
Just kraata.
2. Did you come up with a name for the Makuta of Stelt?
3. Are the bone hunters part of the Rock tribe?
4. We're the element lords originally planned to appear as sets?
5. Do the barraki still use their regular weapons (Shark tooth blades, Protosteel claws) when their mutations were reversed?
6. The comics state that a piece of Aqua magna struck, and smashed Teridax. In the Mata Nui Saga, the entire moon of Bota Magna crushes his head. Which one actually happened?
7. Can Click still transform into a shield and back?

1.The quick healing power of Makuta is useful to regenerate their damaged armor? or this power is completely useless for the Makuta? If this is not the case why they have never used?
2.Which Makuta has created the specie of Kraata and Keetongu? Teridax? Chirox? or maybe Mutran? Or the Great Beings?
3.The Scarabax specie are they part of the many species that have been genetically modified by the Great Beings to become biomechanics? Because their legs looks like robotic compared to the rest of their bodies.
4.A great kanohi kiril can repair protosteel?
5.When a Makuta becomes intangible is what a part of his body goes into a another dimension may be the same dimension where the Makuta takes their form when they change appearance?
The Battera are they attracted by the sound and they move where there's noise?
? If so, which one(s)?

4. Did you write the Mata Nui Saga?
5. Who is your least favorite character in Bionicle?
6. Do the Vorox and zesk have four eyes, or is it just their helmets?1) I can't discuss BIONCLE 2015.
2) All the ones we know about
3) Because that did not happen in story
4) No
5) I don't know that I have a least favorite
6) I haven't looked at those sets in six years, so I really don't recall.
2. Actually, you are wrong. Lariska, Amphibax, Firedracax, Phantom, Sentrakh, Triglax, Nidhiki, Krekka, Vezok, Hakann, Avak, Zaktan, Thok, Reidak and Voporak didn't have codenames.
Hi Mr Greg
1.If the Great Beings would not have discovered the Energized Protodermis is what the most of their creations, such as the Great Spirit Robot and the Matoran/Toa/Turaga and the Red Star and the Bohrok and the others would not see the day because the Great Beings have not the necessary material to create them without the Energized Protodermis?
2.You said that the people of Spherus Magna could not use the power of the Kanohi masks, but is it possible that the Matoran and Agori will eventually create Kanohi masks for the residents of Spherus Magna?

2. Several websites say that there is a Ninjago character named "Seiliel" or something. WHo is this? And is this character real?
1) Because that is what the sets designers gave them. I have nothing to do with set design.
2) Yes. Seliel is the Phantom Ninja in the second to last Ninjago graphic novel. And she is real, because the book was approved by LEGO Company before being published.
1. Axonn and Brutaka?
What about them?
They had fingers!

Most character's had fingers. See Bionicle Heroes, and all the Bionicle movies. At the time there weren't fingered hands pieces.

I just wanted to ask is, what is the name of the Mask of Creation?
Because we know that the Mask of Time is called Vahi and the Mask of Life is called Ignika, but we do not know the name of Mask of Creation.
In old BIONICLE, it was never given a name. I don't know what they will do in new BIONICLE, but my guess would be they will just call it Mask of Creation.
because they're too lazy to come up with a proper name for it 
right?

Or something to that effect. Can you elaborate on this? How would they be different? Maybe they are magnetic? Or do you mean that they don't have actual fingers? I hope you understand my question.
Simple. The MU characters do not have hands with fingers (see the movies) and from the shot of Takua grabbing his kolhii staff in Mask of Light, it appears they grab things via magnetism.
I clearly remember seeing fingers in that movie, though of course, it's been 10+ years since you've seen the movie.

3: Why did Zaktann float into the pool to create the Golden skinned being? He wasn't thrown in like the others.
3. He thought he could stop the transformation, thinking that he wasn't destined. He was, however, destined, and actually ironically ended up causing the transformation.
I never really read the whole ninjago storyline untill now. So I wan't you to know, I like it.

Not at all. But they are trying to keep new BIONICLE less complex than old BIONICLE, which means not adding so many new terms people have to remember. Outside of the Toa's names and the island name, all of the terms have been standard English, rather than old BIONICLE-sounding names.
