>>>>> Official Greg Dialogue <<<<<, For answers from your GregF PMs Options

[King of Mandalor...]

You know, technically, Greg just said that Mata-Nui is closer to 700,000 feet then 100,000 feet. With that information he could be anywhere from 400,001 feet upward. On the other hand he could aslo be something like 3000 miles tall.

[Keyl]

He also said TK was closer in power to Mata Nui than to Terry, and TK is obviously not stronger. Mata Nui is probably close to or at 700k ft.

[Electric Turahk]

If your posts are deleted, DO NOT repost them. They're deleted for a reason, and reposting them just adds more work for the staff. (And makes some of us angry, which is not a good thing.)

Also, STOP talking about Mata Nui here. This is the Official Greg Discussion topic, not the Mata Nui's Status Topic. Take all further theorizing there and stop it here.

~|ET|~

[Falcon-Cat]

1. How would compare Lex Luthor and Teridax in term of personality?

3. Does the Makuta know how many Toa went rogue?
3b. Do they know if any Toa of Iron or Magnetism joined the Dark Hunters?

4. If Tahtorak wanted a answer to his question why didn't he simply ask his question?

1) I wouldn't really, I don't see them as being that comparable. Luthor continues to try to do something he knows is impossible -- Teridax didn't strike at Mata Nui until he knew what he wanted to do WAS possible.

3) Yes
3b) None have

4) He's a beast, FC - you can't judge him based on what a human would know to do.

[~Sernakann~]

I totally forgot! Today is Greg BDay! I think he's 43 today...

[Omega Neron]

the toa of the 2009 sets have a new elements? (magnetism, iron, lightning....)


the series of 2009 will be called ''glatorians''?


the villains of the 2009 history are makutas?

[Vaka-Nui]

I totally forgot! Today is Greg BDay! I think he's 43 today...

That's interesting, but doesn't belong here.

[~Valuuk~]

Happy Birthday!

Technically it would, this is for all Greg discussion apparently. Yeah, 43 sounds right.

[Zexion]

Hey Greg,
I have some qusetions.

1.) When will the new serials be put up?
1a.) I know this hasn't been confirmed, but is this the layout.

1) OOMN/BoM War - Podcast
2) Hagah - Blog
3) Mazeka/Vultraz - Web Serial

2.) Could you give one of the Toa Hagah, a Mask of Empathy. I read that they will be looking for Teridax's location, so it would fit, I guess.

3.) What happened to the FoF. If I remember correctly Roodaka and Vezon will be imprisoned. And you said that Lariska would be in the OOMN/BoM War. So what of Brutaka and Miserix?

4.) Will the BoM Plan be shocking to learn.
4a.) Is the Plan, something anyone could guess, or is totally original.

5.) When awakened could Mata Nui be casted into an illusion by Teridax.

6.) Is Mata Nui's location or Teridax's location right in front of our eyes?

By the way, since you'll be at Comic-Con will you be at a booth or panel?

~Zexion

1) As soon as I have time to start writing them
2) Mask of Empathy? How would that work?
3) Brutaka and Miserix will both be in the war as well
4) I don't know how easily shocked you are, so impossible to answer this
4a) Well, not too many people have guessed it yet
5) No
6) I can't answer this
7) Booth

3) Their intent was to send her back to Odina, but events changed their plans
3b) Yes
3c) Everyone does, you can't launch a war without revealing you exist

4) DH are irrelevant to the OOMN right now, they aren't a threat to the universe

EDIT: Spoiler ones, but dont know if their spoilers?

Some (1) are BL10 spoilers and should (as of today) be in tags.

3C is kinda weird hasn't Greg heard about guerrilla wars?

If the BoM knows something exists but they don't know any more about it, they would likely track that thing down and eventually find it. So revealing itself from the start of the war would be better than letting the enemy find them when they're off-guard.

I got this info from Greg last Tuesday, and my posts keep getting deleted!

Hey Greg? Where do the T Vehicles come from?

[Xander004]

I got these a while back. It's about the OoMN leader. This is how I found out about Mazeka working for the Order.

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

Is Mazeka's vehicle called the 'swamp strider'?

What are Helryx's tools and mask

?


1) Yes
2) Hasn't been revealed yet

Sorry to bother you again. But I have some more questions.

1. Would it be possible to see/mention Botar's replacement in the OoMN-BoM war serial?

2. Is Helryx good with mechanics?

3. How did Helryx become the OoMN leader?

1) Possible, sure
2) I hope so, if she's not, Mazeka will have a problem
3) She founded it.

How did she found it? Did she simplely reform the Hand of Artahka herself? Or did others help her?

She contacted former HOA members and proposed creating a new organization with a new purpose.

IMPORTANT INFO!!

1. Do all the Mistika Makuta still have destiny control and power scream?

2. On BS01 it says that Bitil still has his telepathy power. Is this true?2a. Do all the Miskuta still have telepathy?

3. Will Antroz, Chirox, Mutran, and Icarax use their Kanohi in BL11?

4. Is it a who or a what that makes the Blade Burrows make the universe map?

(Link to image)

5. Which spot on this map is the Matoran Universe?
5a. Is this map perhaps of the whole Bionicle Planet?
5b. Are these other dots other universes?

6. On BS01, it says that Bitil is good with energy fields. Is this true?
6a. Does he still have this power?
6b. And by energy fields, that means stasis fields, right?

7. A member said that you told him that the Miskuta still have their chain lightning power. Is this true?

8. That same member also said one of the Miskuta still has their darkness power. Is this true?
8a. Which Miskuta still has the darkness power?

9. Since Krika, Gorast, and Bitil are all of the same species, wouldn't the swamp waters affected them in the same way? Like, for example, if Krika still has his sonics power, then shouldn't Gorast and Bitil still have their sonics power too? Or does it depend on how long they've been in the swamp waters?

Thanks again Greg, I really appreciate it.

1) Yes
2) Yes
2a) Yes
3) Don't recall, I wrote that book months ago
4-5) Can't discuss this
6) We don't know that it's true or it's not -- it was said by a Makuta about Bitil, and Makuta are not known for being honest.
7) Yes
8) I don't believe I specified that one had it
9) How much they were mutated depends on how long and how often they have been in the water

Well, I guess it isn't that important (), but we now know the Miskuta still have chain lightning and telepathy! Yay!

Not meaning to brag, but I posted that piece of info. on BS01 (after reading the book) on BS01. But since they all have it, off to BS01!

[Electric Turahk]

Well, BL10 tagged spoilers are now allowed. Here's two sets of questions I've been waiting to post until now:

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

If she is the Order of Mata Nui leader, does that not mean that she was the leader of the Hand of Artakha? I thought the Hand was formed before the creation of Toa, though. Am I just misinformed, or was this a mistake?

2) I don't see it as naturally following. She never says she was the leader of the HOA. The original leader of the HOA might have died, or chosen not to be involved in the OOMN. Remember, there were HOA members who drifted off into completely other lives before joining the OOMN.

Question 1 doesn't matter... But this is about Helryx, the leader of the Order of Mata Nui, former Hand of Artakha member (as Greg clarified later to somebody else), and the first Toa.

1. The Rockoh T3 set has a Zamor Launcher in it, but I can find no reference to any such weapon in the bio about it on Bionicle.com. Is this meant to be a Midak Skyblaster (like Mazeka's, which is really just a Zamor Launcher also), or just some random cannon on it?

2. The LEGO Magazine calls Vultraz's vehicle a "Skyfighter," but I found on Bionicle.com a mentioning of a "Skysled" in reference to Vultraz, in addition to the vehicle being called a Skyfighter. Which name is it meant to be?

3a. We will learn who the Order's spy in the Dark Hunters is during the OoMN-BoM war podcast, correct?
3b. Just a little theory of mine... Is Triglax the spy?

4. When you say the yellow Jetrax T6 is super-charged with energy, do you mean just energy from Karda Nui? Or something else?

5a. Can I have a pronunciation for Klakk?
5b. Helryx?
5c. Avohkah?

6. When you say we'll learn what the other Toa Hagah's mask were, do you mean just powers, or names too?

7. Will we be seeing the Order members Tobduk, Johmak, and Jerbraz in the OoMN-BoM war serial?

8. Does Trinuma actually have two Nynrah Ghost Blasters mounted on his back, or is that just a set thing?

1) I always just call them blaster cannons
2) Go with BIONICLE.com in this case
3) Yes
3b) Sorry, not discussing this
4) You'll find out when it happens in story
5) Klakk is pronounced like "track"
5b) Hel (pronounced like "bell") - ricks
5c) Ah-vo-kah
6) Most likely not BIONICLE names, as I don't have enough names left on the list to give them names.
7) I don't know yet, I haven't written any of it yet.
8) Yes, he does have them

2. But BIONICLE.com says both.
8. What power do Trinuma's Nynrah Ghost Blasters have? (Is it the same as the Toa Nuva's, Makuta's, or some new power?)

Thanks for the reply, by the way.

2) I have skyfighter in the story bible, if that helps any, but no idea if they decided to change it in Denmark for some reason
8) Should be the same as the Makuta's, as that is the original power Nynrah GBs have

~|ET|~

[PeabodySam]

Here we go, now that BL10/Kingdom Spoilers are allowed (as long as they are tagged), I'll post several Q&A that I censored from my previous post:

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

3. So the Bohrok are actually transformed Av-Matoran. Are all or most Av-Matoran destined to become Bohrok? If not, how much of the percentage of Av-Matoran would be destined to become Bohrok?
3b. Can former Av-Matoran transformed into Shadow Matoran transform into Bohrok?
3c. It was stated that there were currently no Matoran inhabitants in the Swamp. So why were there the several dozen transforming Av-Matoran in the Swamp?

7. In The Kingdom, the Toa Mahri were breathing air. Yet this was only possible in the main universe because Matoro, before sacrificing himself, granted the other Toa Mahri the ability to breathe air. How then were they able to breathe air in the Kingdom?

8. In The Kingdom, it was mentioned that a couple Fe-Matoran were feeding Avak and Thok when they were attacked by a Panrahk. Why did Avak and Thok need someone to feed them?

9. Visorak are deemed to be at least semi-intelligent. They were, in The Kingdom, working alongside species that are considered sapient, like the Vortixx or Skakdi. Are Visorak truly Rahi, or a lesser-intelligent "sapient species"?

3) Some. I don't have a percentage because I don't need one for story.
3b) Not something I have decided, since the situation isn't going to ever come up in story
3c) Because they traveled down there when it was their time to change.
7) I am getting this one a lot, and not sure why. I said Matoro did not use the mask to save Mata Nui -- I never said he didn't use it AT ALL.
8) Cause they're in a fountain in the town square. If you visit an aquarium at the zoo, how do you think those fish get fed?
9) I consider them to be Rahi.

I'm not sure if this needs to be in a spoiler, but I'm putting it in one anyway: I forgot that Avak and Thok were sea snakes. That's why they were being fed. Oh. Now I feel stupid.

2. In BL10, I think Helryx tells Takanuva something. Is this the important info Taka needs to tell the nuva?
2a. If so, is it that Takanuva needs to warn them about the energy storm that will hit Karda Nui?
2b. Or is the Energy Storm the bad thing that will happen if the Makuta are in the core?
3. In the Kingdom, Taka, Matoro and Tanma see Makuta. He mentions that the other makuta die from the disasters. Why didn't he die?

Thanks!

2) Have you read the book? If you did, I think it's clear what message he had to bring the Nuva.
3) His hate kept him alive. Some people are just too stubborn to die.

In Swamp of Secrets (Which was great, By the Way), you mention in one of Takanuva's vision of the past, that pohatu's a nuva. Does this mean they were nuva before, or was this a mistake on your part?

"Pohatu Nuva could honestly say he had never seen anything like this "Karda Nui" place before."

It was just a typo

[Constonks]

About Mata Nui's height... is it AROUND 700,000 feet? Or could he potentially be several times bigger than that?

-VK-

The actual thing I said is "closer to 700,000 feet than 100,000 feet" - which could mean 701,000 feet or it could mean 40 million feet.

[The (Low-Carb) D...]

Now that I know spoilers about #10 are allowed, I shall post some questions:

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

Dear Greg Farshtey,

I had been reading Bionicle Legends 10: Swamp of Secrets, and had some questions regarding the new informatoin.

1) Is the Codrex the means of propulsion that caused the toa mata to end up on the surface, such as a cannon or teleporter?
1a) If it is their means of transport, is it a cannon or teleporter (or some other fairly technological means)?

2)
If it is not, is the Codrex a means of contacting the Great Spirit? I
guessed it would be logical to have his Saviors to be close to him.
After all, how would their canisters be launched? (I seriously doubt it
was a message by trained Nui-Rama).
2a) If so, I assume that that is where the keystones lead to correct?

3) Have all the Avohkah been delt with?
3a) If not, are they in any way related to the lightning that transformed the Inika, or is it purely from the red star itself?

4)
Are the Avohka in any way related to the Avohkii, or is it just a name
coincidence due to the prefix given to light related beings and objects?

5) Are the transformations of Matoran to Bohrok due to the mutagen?
5a)
If so, is it because they are Av-Matoran, as in the type of matoran?
Because Sarda (or Idris, can't remember) didn't look half like bohrok
when mutated.

6) Are kratanas' visions based on who has last
handeled them? Because I'm guessing Makuta last handeled the one that
had attacked Onewa, and the OoMN leader had last handled the other one,
giving the respective visions.

7) The Codrex was the thing in the background of the cover for Swamp of Secrets, right?

I understand if you can't answer any or all of the questions.

~Sincerely, DH554

1) The Codrex is a structure, it's not an engine.
1a) They were transported in their Toa canisters, which were launched from the Codrex
2) No
3) Yes
4) Names were similar because both had some connection to light
5)
No, natural evolution. The mutagen has only been in existence as a
potential problem for 1000 years, and Bohrok have existed long before
then.
6) No
7) Yes

And some more:

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

I was searching through BS01 for pics of takanuva, when I
looked at the paragraph about the message he was to deliver. I have a
few questions about it:

1) Takanuva's message is for the Toa
Nuva to take all the Av-matoran and good beings and get them refuge in
the Codrex (sort of like Noah's Ark, right?), correct?

2) Will
the storm in Karda-Nui affect the livelyhood of the other places, like
Xia and Metru-Nui? (because I remember a theory a BZPer had, that
Karda-Nui supplied most of the power in the world, like for
lightstones)

3) Was the massive storm the reason Makuta was looking forward to the awakening of Mata-Nui?
3a) If so, is he only at the beggining of the Plan, middle, or finishing it up?

Thanks in advance,
~DH554

1) No. With no Toa canisters in the Codrex, the building itself would not protect them from the effects of the energy storm.
2) No. The storm is normal for Karda Nui.
3) No
3a) Finishing up

Enjoy!

Hey Greg, just some questions for you;

1) Is the BIONICLE movie next year going to be about the Ignika saga? If not, is it about next year?
2)

Is "Kratana" the official name of the kraata/krana creature in Bionicle Legends 1O?

3) Did the Order actually make the Toa Mata?
4)

In BL10, Gali says to Hydraxon "I don't envy the next group you have to work with", and Hydraxon replies "You shouldn't envy them at all". Was Hydraxon referring to the prisoners of the Pit?

Did Brutaka kill Dweller?

If not, what will happen to Dweller afterwards?

Can the energy field around the Codrex kill whoever touches it? In the book, it says that Tahu's armour may have shattered if he didn't activate his Hau.

7) Someone said that Miserix will face Teridax. Does this mean Miserix (or the Order) will find Teridax and his secret location?

Thanks for reading.


1) It focuses on 2009 sets and story, not the Ignika saga.
2) No
3) Artakha made them
4) Yes
5) No
5a) He'll be imprisoned, most likely
6) No, shattering his armor would not kill him.
7) "Someone" is guessing, because I have never said that would happen.

[~Aridax~]

QUOTE
Hi! I have some questions



1. How would Misreix defeat Teridax? Wouldn't he just find a new body?

2. Are the Piraka going to ever be in the storyline again?

3. We won't go back to the 2001-2008 storyline after 08, Ever, Right?

4. In Bionicle Legends 8: Prisoners of the Pit What did Idris mean by saying "We'll end up like Poor Sarda" He's still alive with Lesovikk.

5. Will we hear from Takadox again?

6. Why is there a Yellow Jetrex?

Thank you for your time


1) Well, if I'm Miserix, and I run across Teridax's energy, I incinerate it with laser vision.
2) I don't have plans for them. We are only in this universe through December, and the Piraka already got an entire year to themselves.
3) Impossible to predict. We have not ruled out coming back to the Matoran universe in future, we're just not there in the next story arc.
4) When did she say it in the book? And keep in mind that Sarda is stuck as a water-breather and so can't be with his friends, like she can.
5) Probably
(6) It's a store exclusive set for Target

Some questions I wrote a while back.

Hey Greg

I just read Swamp of Secrets and have a few questions regarding it:

1. While writing the book, was your main focus on the battles in the swamp, or was it on the flashbacks?

2. Here's a quote from the book:

Stuck in this miserable swamp, mutated by the waters, and no longer able to shapeshift, she (Gorast) had begun to question her role in the Brotherhood's plan.

Just to make sure, the 'water' reffered to in the sentence is Pit Mutagen, correct?

2a. If 'yes,' I'm guessing the reason they came into contact with it is that, like the Nuva, they didn't know it was Mutagen. They went in it to search for the Ignika and came out mutated. Is this correct?

2b. If the answer to 2a. is 'no,' could you state how they came into contact with the Mutagen?

3. Do the Makuta in Karda Nui know what will happen to Karda Nui if Mata Nui were to awaken? I'm guessing Teridax knows but 'forgot' to mention it.

4. Does Helryx's idea about Takanuva's destiny have anything to do with him stopping the energy storm?

5. Will The Final Battle begin with the fight at the end of Swamp of Secrets?

Thanks

1) Half the book was one, half the other, so both got equal focus in my writing.
2) The mutagen is in the water
2a) They came out locked in the forms they were in when they went into it
3) No, they don't
4) No, there is no way to stop the energy storm, short of not waking up Mata Nui. The storm is inevitable if he's awake.
5) I can't discuss this

A question that I had omitted a few days ago.

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

Hi Greg.
I was recently wondering about the energy storms, when Mata Nui was awakened.
I have a few questions about them I was hoping you could answer.
Thanks!

1. The energy storms happen when Mata Nui wakes up. Karda Nui is the location of these storms. Karda Nui is the "Universe Core", like a heart (I guess...core=heart). Could the energy storms be thought of as a defibrillator or a start up jolt in a car?

2. The there's the Av-Matoran that could die...which causes something bad...I'm thinking that the Av-Matoran keep the core running (heart) and if they die, would Mata Nui be severely injured? (Heart Attack or problems-sort).

Thanks again, Greg.
[=-M-=]

1) Except they don't stop once he's awake, the way a start up jolt would. They rage as long as he is awake.
2) All Matoran have a crucial role to play, based on their jobs. So losing any tribe completely would be devastating.

1) So it could be thought of as a defibrillator/start-up, but also something that keeps "him running"?
2) Is it possible that all the different tribes of Matoran have different places and things to do, distantly like cells of a body? They keep a part of Mata Nui running? Like the Av-Matoran are the "heart cells", and other tribes/other groups of Matoran are "___ cells"?

[=-M-=]

1) Or something that exists BECAUSE he's active.
2) All Matoran have some role to play, they're all important.

[Freeze]

I'm confident with the theory that Mata Nui is the universe itslef- I mean, look how tall he is, the two holes in Mata Nui (Island) are like his eyes, Metru Nui's like his brain, which is why it's so important to his health, Karda Nui is like his heart.

Mata Nui must have bad heartburn.

[Xander004]

Just some things.

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

1. Did Helryx give Mazeka the Swamp Strider

2. Is Mazeka's Swamp Strider the same one from BL10?

1) Yes
2) Not the exact same one, that one is 100,000 years old, but it's based on the same design

Is Karda Nui always in an energy storm when Mata Nui is awake?

Yup

Mr. Farshtey,
Hi! I hope that you had a good birthday. I just have two questions about Teridax's plans for the rest of the Makuta.

1) All of the best fighters and thinkers out of all of the Makuta are conviently, fo Teridax, in Karda-Nui. And they don't know about the energy strom that would completely obliterate them. Is Teridax planning on the deaths of the Makuta in Karda-Nui?

2) Say Takanuva got the message to the Toa Nuva that they will be turned to dust by a great storm in Karda-Nui. Toa don't kill, so would they warn, if they had the chance, the Makuta in Karda-Nui? And if the Makuta listened, would a temporary truce be called?

3) Alright, this is goig to sound stupid, but could you explain exactly how Krika feels about the grand plan? I know that you've said that he feels that for better or for worse, they are in this plan. He also, upon seeing Takanuva, had a look of sadness and resignation on his face. I know there is one thing that I am missing here, but could you explain to me exactly how he feels about it?

Thank you so much,
Toa Krogo


1) Follow the story. All will be made clear.
2) Do you think the Makuta would EVER listen to such a warning?
3) Basically, Krika sees nothing good coming out of it, but he sees nothing good coming out of the alternative either. If the Plan succeeds, he sees bad things happening; and if the Plan fails, Mata Nui wipes out the Makuta. So it's a no-win situation, as far as he's concerned.

[Nittany Nuva]

I'm confident with the theory that Mata Nui is the universe itslef- I mean, look how tall he is, the two holes in Mata Nui (Island) are like his eyes, Metru Nui's like his brain, which is why it's so important to his health, Karda Nui is like his heart.

I could have sworn that years ago, maybe '03-04 or so, a member asked Greg why when turned upside-down, the island of Mata Nui looked like a face. Greg replied that it would have future significance. I know that he would never answer this question now, but for my own sanity's sake, do any of you older members recall this?

[The (Low-Carb) D...]

I sent Greg a PM today, but forgot something. SO I sent him another question that was supposed to be there originally. Funny, cause I got that one question back, but nothing yet from the other questions
OK, here it is:

Sorry, but when I sent you my PM, this question slipped my mind:

In the Brickmaster magazine, you get free sets. I was wondering, is the
bionicle one a set of the Klakk, because in the description, it said
that the set was a dangerous flying rahi with a powerful sonic attack.
That sounds a lot like it. am I correct?

Yes, you are

So I guess the Klakk have some sort of special ability that will "change the course of bionicle history forever". Interesting. I guess I'll have to PM greg about what that ability is...
