Storm - I would not be allowed to look at suggestions for sets, but regardless, another season is already planned for 2014.

---

i mean for 2015 

---

2015 sets for various themes are already in development, but I have not heard if there will be new Ninjago in 2015 yet. I won't hear anything about 2015 until next January.

Hey, Greg! I have to say, it's AWESOME to meet you! Now, I would get on about how cool it is to talk to you, but I'll just get to the point.

 

1. Did the skulkin make the Tower of Tears? After all, their original job was to imprison things worse than themselves (and the smoke creatures are potentially the most powerful beings in all of Ninjago). Plus, there were bones when Cardinsto disappeared, and Garms needed someone to destroy the ToT for him. And who else would be better than his servants, the very creators of it?

 

2. In Legends of Metru Nui, Teridax/Dume is seen talking to some dark figure at one point. Who is this figure? Eliminator? Antroz?

 

3. Would the Piraka's nicknames (the ones in the commercials, such as 'Tracer' or 'Trigger') be considered their Dark Hunter codenames?

---

1) No, they did not.

2) He's talking into a mirror.

 

3) Goodness, I hope not I always hated those names.

---

Also, in Stone Cold, what are the names of those villains Sensei Wu ambushed, and what are their powers?

---

All the names and their basic powers are in the book, which is available for sale.

I can't discuss 2014, Acidicus. If I do, I won't be able to post here anymore.

I have a question for you. I'd like to know why you stopped Bionicle. It was a really good theme and was one of the best themes. In fact I am sitting next to someone who owns 100+ bionicle and was devastated to learn the the theme was discontinued and replaced. Did you stop it for story reasons or for market reasons?

---

I won't ask now. 

 

I have another question,

why is it that most of the story lines you make have a religious backround to them? 

 

---

Sorry, no idea what you're talking about. I don't do stories with religious themes.

---

Backrounds  . . . NOT themes. 

 

The background of Ninjago has some far eastern mysticism in it.  Because of the facts in it such as . . .

-When there is good there aways has to be evil, (That  is in the episode when Misako tells Lloyd and the other ninja the story of the overlord. - The first spinjitzu master created the world with 4 weapons . . .

Chima and Bionicle also have a backround to it all though I forgot what they are called. 

 

 

---

And that would be relevant to your question if I had created any of those three -- but I didn't create Ninjago, Chima or BIONICLE. I worked within the worlds that I was given.

---

Then who did? Didn't you create the story?

---

BIONICLE was created by an international team that LEGO Company assembled, led by Bob Thompson. I do not know personally who came up with Ninjago and Chima, I believe they both came out of LEGO Company's Concept Lab but I am not sure.

greg if you had to start a new line of LEGO and a theme what would it be

No idea. That sort of thing is not part of my job.

greg could you put a contest on bz power to end the yesterday quest and the powers that be

I can't do anything on BZP anymore, Keith, because LEGO social media policy does not allow me to post on non-LEGO sites where there are kids under 13. BZP has no age verification system, so there is no way to know how many of their members are under 13. That is why I had to stop posting there.

Hi Greg. Did all the Toa have the abilty to form a kita or just the Toa Mata/Nuva.

Thxs.

I would think all Toa would have that ability.

1. I understand that you have no input on what the LEGO sets for the series that you write for. But if you could change the look of one BIONICLE set, which would it be?

 

2. What inspired you to become a writter? I myself am not planning on becoming one, but I'd be interested in why you decided to become an author.

 

3. What are your thoughts on the LEGO CUUSOO projects that are BIONICLE mocs from fans, like UCS Makuta and Toa Nidhiki?

 

4. How does it make you feel when you see pictures on the intenet like the one where it shows Patrick from Spongebob moving his arms from side to side, and in text above and below is says-'We should kill Hero Factory and bring back BIONICLE?' 

 

5. A lot of people asked if BIONICLE is coming back, but do you see BIONICLE coming back in the future yourself?

 

6. Even thought your LEGO books and comics are more kid centered, have you ever published more adult themed writings? If so, could name some?

 

Thank you so much for responding to my earlier posts

---

1) Not something I have thought about. I am not an artist or a designer, and I really never worried about their look so much as their powers/characters.

2) Because it's what I am best at. I have been writing since I was in fourth grade.

3) Haven't seen them

4) I would say that was a foolish statement to make. Hero Factory had absolutely nothing to do with BIONICLE ending, and if HF fails, who is to say a decision wouldn't be made that there is no market for buildable action figures, so no point in bringing BIONICLE back?

5) No idea. I do not know all the factors that went into deciding to end it and I do not know enough about retailer interest in a return to be able to predict.

6) I wrote for West End Games for seven years, which was stuff aimed more at high school/college-age people. I had three novels published during that time which were darker than my LEGO stuff.

Dear Mr. Farshtey

 

I have a hundred questions to ask you! I am a HUGE fan of your story-writing! but will limit it to just one. Have you ever thought about bringing back Bionicle one day? Maybe not even at LEGO! (No offense LEGO ) I would hate to see all of your creative stories through the years just, fade.

 

                                                                                                 Your Fan Forever, ElloKitty

I have nothing to do with whether it would be brought back or not and I couldn't take it someplace else because I do not own the rights -- LEGO Company does. It belongs to them.

Would be sort of pointless to still be doing it after almost 13 years if I didn't
