YES. have a big thing kill him.

Both are fine with me, though I would lean to say "a fragment of Bota Magna". Maybe the BSS could do a poll about that?

A piece of something. What's awesomer than being shot in the head with a planetary projectile?

Absolutely and 100% Bota Magna.

 

As you say, Journey's End specifies it and the MNS illustrates it very plausibly. Greg specified in his writing that it was Bota Magna, and Brian Ellis was quite obviously told to illustrate Bota Magna hitting Teridax. Michael Dorn's script specifies "Jungle moon", which can only mean Bota Magna.

 

One panel of the comic shows otherwise, but doesn't specify "an Aqua Magna chunk" and was likely illustrated with the artistic intent of fitting a dramatic closeup of Teridax and the projectile in the same small panel (And could easily have been miscoloured).

 

It's three sources of intentional canon saying Bota Magna against one source that doesn't necessarily contradict the first sources, and could easily be an error or artistic license. The three sources for Bota Magna are more widely published and advertised on every Bionicle set made, available to see by anyone with a computer.

 

I also get the impression from the answers Greg had given previously that he thought MNS shows Bota Magna as the same size as Teridax's head, but in actual fact it is one of the more scale accurate images we've had in a while.

 

Nuhrii - I don't think this is something that BZPers should vote on, Greg should decide. It's a matter of which solution conflicts the canon and official media the least, keeping things clear and constant for all fans, not what BZPers think is coolest and most epic.

 

Besides, Michael Dorn said it was Bota Magna, so there.

Bota. If it was Aqua, we would have called it death by water Balloon.

Bota Magna just makes more sense.

I prefer the chunk. The chunk would simply have blown out the Core Processor. Bota Magna would have obliterated all of Metru Nui. And I wub Metru Nui. D:

Do you think you're the only one who adores Metru Nui?

I really don't care, although I prefer the edge of the moon. The main reason being that Chewbacca was killed by a falling moon.

Lehvak-Kal.

 

that's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Epic win. Unfortunately I fear that this will not be canonized. xD I'd be for it, though. ^^

Me. I was floating around and he bumped into me. Unfortunately for him, he was like a mosquito to me and just crumbled.

 

~EW~

Can't we just have a heroic suicide mission involving the Turaga of Metru Nui setting off a giant nuke blow up his head?

 

I dunno, I just like being difficult

A shard of Bota Magna.

 

 

~Eeko~

Bota Magna. I was fairly disappointed with how he died in the comic. It's like Dennis the Mennis just got out his trusty slingshot and killed him with a rock to the back of the head. But shoving somebody into a moon? A much more suited death for Teridax in my opinion.

 

~U_K~

I'm still sticking with this.

Bota Magna, fo shizzle.

 

I'm still a firm believer of that.

Bota. If it was Aqua, we would have called it death by water Balloon.

 

"Death By Water Balloon" = Amazing.

This. Most certainly this.

Mata Nui's spirit.

 

He projected it into the core processor as Makuta was stunned, forcing his consciousness out of the way and ejecting him out of the Matoran Universe in his Matoran form, which fell and burned up in the atmosphere. The only remnant is his infected-Hau-looking Kraahkan, which lands far out in the desert. Anyone around to witness the aftermath would have thought they a heard faint laughter in the wind okay this is getting way too detailed but admit it this would have been totally and completely awesome.

Bfa that was simply beautiful. ;___;

Bota Magna. Why? Because I like green better than blue. B)

Bota Magna. The Aqua Magna fragment was just an alternate timeline. In all seriousness, could we actually say that, though?

 

I'd prefer the option that doesn't involve Teridax's head blowing up.
