1) Can Skakdi's Vision be deflected by a mirror or a weapon?

2) Can some of the species (for example: Skakdi) survive being frozen in a block of solid ice for... a few months? Or years?

3) Can Toa of Light move as fast as light?

Hey Greg, sorry if someone already asked this. Is the new 2015 Bionicle line still linked to the previous time? Because I know that they were dragged through time to the island of Okoto and when I saw the videos,they looked like their Toa Nuva forms. 

Also, is the new line going to branch away from the original Bionicle timeline to start its own or is it eventually going to link back?

As Tonks said, I do not answer questions re: new BIONICLE, as I am not involved with it at all.

*Reads Bionicle animation credits, spots Greg's name* Traitor!

I have no involvement at all with the animations and have no idea why my name would be anywhere on them. My only involvement with new BIONICLE was reading over the completed story bible in spring of last year, giving a little feedback which I don't think was used, and that's it. All of the BIONICLE Club material is being written by Matt Killeen.

No.

I have a followup question. Had the fanbase not of reacted poorly to Teridax's name, would you of revealed the Shadowed  One's name?

---

Possibly. But one thing to keep in mind -- that name was never trademarked or anything. So the fact that it was legally approved for us all those years ago does not mean it would be legally approved now. Someone else could have claimed it, or something close enough to it that LEGO would not want it used. So even if I wanted to reveal it, it would need to go through Legal again, and there is no budget to get Gen1 BIONICLE names approved.

---

Ah, so there are 2 things going against us.

1. The fans having reacted poorly to the reveal of Teridax's real name for no good reason.

2. Now that G1 is completely dead and irrelevant to LEGO, the Shadowed One's real name will never go through a legality check again.

Thanks for the insight!

What that probably means is they credited him as being part of the concept without actually having truly listened to anything he had to say.

I have questions ...

1 Could a great being modify powers that work only on MU beings to work on organic beings as well?

2 According to the wiki Pahrak Kal melted to the core of Aqua Magna and died, but it doesn't have a core or magama, since its just a chunk of Aqua Magna, so is it possible that Pahrak Kal is just stuck in a VERY deep hole

3 Can Arthaka make more great disks, and by extension more masks of time?

4 can Piraka form natural kaita?

Hello Mr. Farshety, 

I myself am a big thirteen year old fan. I actually only began my increasing love for Bionicle AFTER it ended. My friend told me about it, I did research, and immediately was a huge fan. I have about 50 Bionicles, all of them bought after your amazing story ended. 

Here are my questions on Bionicle:
1. What are your views on the new Bionicle? Are you dissapointed at the sudden change and liberties LEGO has taken (not to mention the generic names), or relieved that they brought it back, no matter the changes. 

2. I heard that the age it was targeted for was greatly dropped, is this true?

3. Was the Bionicle story in 2010 resolved completely, or was it never properly ended? I read the comics for Journey's end, but heard that you continued it afterwards. 

4. I heard that Bionicle was expected to last until 2020. Is this true? Was there more ideas for the future that you never had released?

5. The BAttera. What happened to them? Where did they go? 

6. Just Makuta questions. Someone told me they are Antidermis in armor. Also, I never found how they came into existence. 

Thanks, 

Powermaster146

Can you confirm or deny that the Matoran released in the Phantoka wave of Winter 2008 wear the noble versions of their Makuta or Toa counterparts, eg. does Solek wear a noble Akaku?

How does it cost money to see if it's trademarked and stuff? You just use google to see if you can use it.

Greg, I'm askinfg 4th TIME. I hope You'll finally answer:

 

1. Is there winter in the Matoran Universe? For example on Zakaz?
2. Can Toa forge a mental link with other Toa?
3. Can Toa of Light absorb Skakdi's Visions? For example light or heat vision?

---

1) There was a discussion a while ago about seasons in the BIONICLE universe, and I don't recall where it netted out. My question is, what purpose would winter serve? Do you want the inside of your toaster covered in snow and ice? Certainly, the robot would have had an internal cooling system, but I don't know that it would have been producing winter like we think of winter.

2) I believe Gali did that somewhere early in the story, but we never used it again.

 

3) I would lean toward yes. If it is a form of light, then Takanuva should be able to absorb it. The question is, could he move fast enough to absorb it before it hit its target?

---

I believe that Gali forged a mental link with Takanuva to tell if he was lying or not.
