Hey Greg, I thought you might like a break from the Bionicle related questions.

1. What do you do in your free time?
2. What's your opinion on the works of JRR Tolkein?

1) Primarily take care of my daughter.

2) Haven't read them. I was never a big fan of high fantasy.


2. What types of things do you like to read, then?


2) Mysteries, mostly, these days. I used to read comics too, but they got too expensive for me to afford.

Hey Greg-Sama, will the unnamed Kanohi ever get names? Because I've got a few ideas for them.

 

 

 

For the Mask of Pyscometry:

 

The Kanohi Parcepio, derived from the Latin percipio, which roughly means to gather, or to percieve.

The Kanohi Mahio, derived from the Maori for understand. 

 

For the Mask of Rebounding:

 

The Kanohi Vicine, derived from the latin vicis, which means return.

The Kanohi Stipio, derived from the latin stipo, or collect.

 

 

For the mask of conjuring:

 

The Kanohi Quaeso, derived from the latin for conjure.

 

 

Thanks.

Please, just take a look at these and tell me if you like any of them, and if they could be considered canon. It'd mean a lot to me.

 

Thanks.

I recommend Lord of the Rings. It is a great read, and I'm a modern book lover

I can't assign names to anything in Gen1, Tiche. BIONICLE names have to go through extensive legal checks before they can be made official, and there is no budget to do checks for a line we are no longer producing (since the focus is Gen2 now).

No to the first, and no idea on the second.

Sherlock Holmes, Nero Wolfe, The Saint, Gideon Fell, plus a lot of modern stuff. I have a really, really good used bookstore about an hour away from me, so I go down and stock up every month or so. I normally read four or five books a week.

This might be a very dumb question, but why do matoran have different genders if there is no need for them to reproduce? (That was bugging me since 2006.)

1) The Great Beings were different genders

2) Different genders sometimes have different approaches to situations, and so a greater balance is achieved if you have a mix.

Aw. Sad

 

Anyways, what do you think of them? Am I still allowed to use them as fanon names?

sounds good! I'm doing a SH readthrough, and just finished the Hound of the Baskervilles, marking the halfway point.
