Sleep Is Good

Tuesday, January 13, 2009 I've honestly woken up at 5:15 AM just now. It probably has something to do with the fact that I flopped down to bed nearly twelve hours before this. I think I should just start a category called "Sleep." Seriously, there are entries here and there that chronicle the first moments high school started to wreck my sleeping habits. It all started in July 2006, summer school... Search for an entry named "Cycle of Doom," or whatever I called it. Entries like those a

Aqua Blaster Blade Entry

Tuesday, September 2, 2008 > Vote Here < So, this is my plan for the KanohiJournal contest. Trying not to sound too pretentious, I consider this version of Nuparu's aqua blaster blade to be the solution to a problem. Nuparu’s aqua blaster blade is mentioned and seen in action in the books, and, if you want to be particular, is therefore considered part of the canon storyline. Here’s the thing. The weapon is only mentioned in the books because the prototype Nuparu set that G

The Next Fashion Trend

Wednesday, December 6, 2006 I've noticed that this winter all of the chicks are wearing these really fancy, high-tech-looking boots of various brands. They all look like they must do something besides keep feet warm, and they seem to be a big hit. Now, I don't know if they know it, but I foresee that the next fashion trend will be... » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «Rocket Boots!

Friday, July 10, 2009 BARA MAGNA • The Great Beings would have genetically modified the Vorox and Zesk simply for the sake of research. • There is a vehicle division in the Great Tournament. Pilots in vehicles fight other pilots with vehicles; they don't fight Glatorian or Agori without vehicles. • Greg's reason that Strakk has never won a tournament: "People who habitually cheat tend not to work as hard at building up their skills as people who do not." • On Gelu's heartless persona: "I th

Mean Teachers

Friday, October 6, 2006 "If I see you playing with anything during the movie, I will take whatever it is away and not give it back. If I see you doing homework, I will take it away and not give it back. If I hear a cell phone ringing, I will take it away and not give it back. If I see you put your head down, I will take it away and not give it back."

How The Squid Ammo Is Fired

Saturday, November 11, 2006 I figured it out. Someone else probably has already, but I assure you that I didn't get this from anywhere else. Take a look at Tilius's scan of Pridak. Notice how the squid in the launcher is slightly shorter than the one clipped to his armor. This observation has led me to this conlusion: See? To fit the polyp into the launcher, the tail has to scrunch up. When you press the knobs on the sides of the launcher, the clip holding the polyp from springing o

Who's Got Your Vote?

Wednesday, October 18, 2006 Heck, he got a month named after him, albeit one that tends to throw the succeeding ones' prefixes off. He has his qualities, but has a tendency to be "ambitious." Pedro offers you his protection. Who's got your vote?

Friday, January 30, 2009 Decided to go with bold orange dot to hilight interesting ones, for now. BARA MAGNA • Inhabitants of Bara Magna are not born with their mechanical implants, and they can live just as well without them. • Exsidian is a metal that resists wear and corrosion really well (a constant problem in a desert), so it's prized for use as a blade coating, etc. ● Greg, on destinies on Bara Magna: "While I am not saying BM characters do not have destinies (I believe everyone

Friday, May 21, 2010 SPHERUS MAGNA • It would be highly unusual and unlikely were one of the enemy Skakdi or Skrall to make his way into the new society on Spherus Magna. [source] • Greg envisions the Sisters of the Skrall as having a black color scheme, with robes of dark brown or faded purple. [source] • Agori are subject to heart disease and obesity. [source] • Now in possession of all the powers of the Kraata he destroyed, Tahu has become more powerful than he was as a Toa Nuva. [source]

Manas: Least Owned Set?

Saturday, October 27, 2007 A Manas pair sits on the great Bionicle shelves in my basement. Just visiting the collection and admiring the Rahi this afternoon, I tried to reconnect the rubber bands that allow the set to function properly. One crusty old band broke when I touched it. The set has been mine for five years, after all. Not that it mattered -- as long as it was going to break whenever I next tried to put it to use again. Then glancing down at the Bahrag, I looked at their white-rubber

Friday, June 5, 2009 BARA MAGNA • Malum had a reason to try to kill Strakk in the arena. • Greg, on Vastus's paralyzing venom spear: "It's only an unfair advantage if he is allowed to use it in the arena, when his opponent has nothing to counter it. What weapons are allowed in a match is determined beforehand. So, for example, Vastus might be allowed to use the spear in a given match but not to trigger the venom." • In order to tame a Rock Steed a Bone Hunter must subdue it in single comba

Friday, August 6, 2010 A note about the Farshtey Feed's erratic schedule as of late: Due to a lessening in the weekly amount of information coming into the OGD (an apparent result of BIONICLE's lack of further set releases), I am choosing on occasion to combine two to four weeks' worth of information into single Farshtey Feed entries. This is to keep each individual entry more comprehensive. CURRENT STORY SERIALS REIGN OF SHADOWS • Brutaka is still under the effects of his submer

Legend Reborn Trailer Stills

Thursday, May 14, 2009 Mata Nui. Skrall. Ackar. Bonehunter, although this is really Atakus's model. Hopefully the producers won't make this switch in the movie. Berix. Metus. Gresh. Vorox. Kiina. Tuma. The scarabax beetle Click witnesses the landing of the Ignika. A huge foot is seen in the distance. Bara Magna's two moons (one blue, one green) are seen in the night sky. A huge bolt of energy gathers. Some sort of ancient

Friday, September 25, 2009 GENERAL • Exactly what Mata Nui's original mission is gets revealed next year. • The Kanohi Dragon was created by a Makuta. Miserix did not create it. • On the Matoran universe: "You have to keep in mind that the beings who consider it a universe are the ones who live in it. Basically, Mata Nui is giant robot with millions of nanotech beings inside of him and various mechanical "organs." So in that sense, you could even argue he is more like a synthezoid, a livin

A W That's Not Ip

Wednesday, September 17, 2008 Here's the thing: this MOC was too cool to die in BBC. So I'll cheat and post it in my blog instead, where I can see it getting more comments than in the MOC forum. BBC was pathetic. People come in saying things like "I don't see any flaws except..." as if that's all you look for when you judge art. So constructive criticism -- or even just supportive comments -- on parts like the legs (I suggest taking a look at how they are jointed to the body), wing design,

Saturday, November 14, 2009 BIONICLE 2010 • Takanuva changes weapons for 2010. • Nektann allies with Teridax because he respects power. • "[T]he Skrall are still active on Bara Magna, and when they spot Glatorian under attack by invaders, they join in because they hate Glatorian. They aren't working for Makuta, they are simply taking advantage of their enemies being vulnerable." BARA MAGNA • The Skrall did not hold any Zesk in captivity. • Zesk do not have their own pack leaders as th

Friday, December 25, 2009 Merry Christmas! BIONICLE 2010 • Greg is sure that some Glatorian died in Teridax's attack on them. • Click is now outside of Mata Nui's current robot body. • In Mata Nui's body Teridax can only use what Makuta powers he was able to use as Maxilos. • The energy source retrieved by Mata Nui was made active in the prototype robot body's head. Its power bound the components of the body together. • Mata Nui now remembers his lost knowledge thanks to something he ha

Mr. Farshtey As A Teacher

Sunday, October 29, 2006 What would life be like if Greg Farshtey were one of your teachers? Think about it. Your school -- be it grade school or high school -- needs a new English teacher; and Greg, an author for LEGO, happens to have the necessary degrees and decides to pursue the job. Yeah, Greg wouldn't be able to keep the job with LEGO as it is, so this is totally far-fetched. It just would not be capable of happening. But can you imagine the first day... "Hello, class.

Friday, December 19, 2008 Happy Holidays! BARA MAGNA • Greg would not say that Thornax grow abundantly. Like water or food or anything else, Thornax are a scarce resource that has to be sought out or traded for. That is why Glatorian have them and not Agori, because Glatorian get first dibs on whatever is found. • Bone hunters work for whoever has something that they want. They are nomadic bandits. They do not participate in the social system. • "Bone hunters" is a tribe name. They are
