Mr. Farshtey:

 

Is it possible that, if you had the desire and the time enough for it, you could get permission from LEGO to continue the old BIONICLE storyline--without any publicity? Obviously it doesn't make sense to promote old BIONICLE anymore, but would it be legal/plausible for you to continue the storyline in any way?


I can't speak for anyone else, but I am not sure why they would want to do that. Story only ever existed to help promote the sets -- if there are no sets to promote, then it doesn't really benefit LEGO Company to do more story. And while I could be doing the writing on my own time, somebody at the company would have to be using work time to read over and approve everything. So I can't say it's impossible, because it's not my decision, but I don't think it is very likely.


It is very good at least to know that you still have interest in it and would continue it if you had the chance.

Is there a limit to how much damage a shield from the Kanohi Hau can take before failing?


I would say yes, because it is fueled by the willpower of the user.


Does a hau work for an A.I. controlled tank then? How much willpower does a vehicle, let alone an A.I. have? How much would it need? XD

18) Do you know anyone who is/was a brony? (Well, now you know someone. This guy right here. Joking)

19) Is the alternate universe with Tuyet canon?

20) How does the Kanohi Olmak work, and what is it made of? Protodermis? A Kanoka disc? A material no one has heard of before?


18) No

19) Anything I wrote for G1 got approved by LEGO Company before it was published, so yes.

20) All masks are made of protodermis. The Olmak opens gates between dimensions.

1 What exactly would happen if someone got their hands on two Spears of Fusion and fused them together?

2. Are the Great Beings natives of Spherus Magna? (Just a yes or no please)

3. Was it Tahu's destiny to wear the Golden Armor or did the Ignika/Mata Nui just happen to choose him?

4. Are the Agori and Glatoran Bio Mechanical?

Hi, Mr.Farshtey.

 

Was Mata Nui created fully sapient?

If yes, why he hadn't considered consenquences of the Awakening on MU's inhabitants as glitches and tried to fix them, knowing that they didn't have to be fully sapient?

If not, has he become it thanks to the Awakening of Velika, allowing him to conceive of the development of intricate cultures inside the MU, to understand why and how certain beings can create some troubles by their ideals/ambitions/values and to know how to deal with this situations, by attributing appropriate destinies to MUians? If it's the case, this may also explain why the MUians created after the Awakening  were fully sapient too : it had become the norm for Mata Nui when he created new beings.

1) I don't know that anything in particular would happen.

2) Yes

3) Yes, it was his destiny

4) Many Agori and Glatorian have mechanical implants of some sort, but some do not. They are certainly not bio-mechanical in the way that Toa and Matoran are. More like humans who get artificial knees or eyes and such. They don't require mechanical implants to survive, the way MN inhabitants do. Implants are an option, but not a requirement, and even for those who have them, they are WAY more biological than mechanical.

Hey Greg. This is a BIONICLE G1 related question. I recently heard about Papu And Rangi metioned in Mata Nui Online Game as the founders of Ta-Koro. After that they are never metioned in BIONICLE G1 Canon again. Do you have any insight as to who these characters are and what their story intenions would have been?

 

Thanks in advance. Smile

Would you say that the Energized Protodermis Entity had planned out, or at least willingly let happen, the events of the Core War, the Shattering, etc.? Or was it simply indifferent to everything, even the Great Beings? Also, did it view the Great Beings as even close to its level, or just particularly bright insects?

Mr. Farshtey? I have a question...

 

When the Mata Nui Online Game came out, I loved it, but now it is no longer on LEGO.com!

 

Do you know if there is any way, or any websites where I can play the game? Thanks.

 

Also, who is your favourite Toa? (Mine's Lewa, the original, 8535.)

Hi Greg! Back again with another ridiculous question I'm afraid, but my curiosity got the better of me. Joking

 

We have seen in Bionicle G2 that many names (The names of the original Toa and Makuta to be precise) have been carried over from G1.

So, in your personal opinion, do you think it is at all possible - disregarding the likelihood of it happening - that some names from G2 might be carried back to G1?

I understand that the LEGO group would have no reason to do this, but is it theoretically possible?

My guess would be no. I don't think the company as a whole will be revisiting G1 at any point, and even if I were allowed to revisit it, I see no reason to use names from G2 and potentially confuse people. Also, frankly, I would be leery of doing anything that emphasized a potential link between the two universes when no one at G2 has suggested there is one.

If I had to guess, they were probably among the names we agreed to stop using in our agreement with the Maori, which is why you never heard them mentioned again.
