2) I heard two different things about Mata Nui's appearance that you said at a library event recently. One person said you said he was over 100,000 feet tall, and another said 700,000 feet tall. So, out of curiosity, how tall is he?

2) Closer to 700,000 feet

That is approximately... 213 KILOMETERS! Mt. Everest is "only" 8 km high. Mata Nui sure is big...

Wow... Thats too big. Not good for the Story, I would say...

Hey Greg, i was just wondering:

1. Can a Toa have two elements, like Plant life and air?
1b. If so, can that Toa access all the powers from each element?
2. Is Mata-Nui (Not island) visible?(just thinking of great SPIRIT)
2b. If so, COULD Mata-Nui appear as a LEGO set?
3. If Antroz is blind, how can he ride Jetrax?
4. What does the T9, T6 and T3 stand for/mean?

Thank you


1) No
2) He does have a physical body, so yes
2b) Well, not this year
3) You'll find out when he does it, we haven't reached that point of the story yet
4) Engine classifications

__________________________________________________________________________

1. Ok
2. Ok
2b. Hope he comes out
3. I can wait
4. I didn't knew that

Well if he is taller than Mt. Everest, and is in the domed universe, which he probably is, and this obviosly means he isn't in the Codrex, and he isn't supposed to be in Karda Nui, he has to have his own dome, or lives as a mountain, or lies down. Maybe he literally was struck down by Makuta, and that caused an earthquake. Anyway, if his body id that big, it is either in a really obvios place, or his own personal dome.

Well, it depends. I think that this is a very original idea, seeing as we have never had a character this big before. It has a lot of story potential, for one. BTW, is Greg's inbox still full? I wanted to send him some questions, but didn't want to send them unless he has cleared his inbox out.

@SA master: Maybe... he is the matoran universe? Makes sense, doesn't it?

Actually, Karda Nui is a big as two of his fist, and he owns the domes. And it's more of the really obvious place than in his own dome...

I had a wacky theory a couple months back that Mata Nui (spirit) lies underneath the surface of Mata Nui (island.) According to BS01, Mata Nui (island) is approx. 151.3 miles long. That's 798864 feet. Shave off the narrow tips... that's about 700000 feet.

A while back I had a wackyer theory that The Matoran Universe was Mata Nui's Brain, But Greg Denied it. It still makes sense, wit new information. The Planet is his head, since who would want a growth on their head? And the brain still works, but not at full capacity when sleeping, and the cataclysm happened due to him falling down.

[Konrad]

The planet is way to huge to be Mata Nui's head.

[Dotor Shark PhD ...]

I think Matoran universe is Mata-Nui...Because he never specifically said 700,000 feet. He said Mata-Nui's height is closer tot hat then to 100,000 ft. It's very possible that he's even bigger. All we know on Mata-Nui's height is that he's 700,000 feet or bigger.

[Xander004]

I found this on BS01:

QUOTE
The Toa Hagah will also be featured in a web serial this summer on BIONICLEstory.com where they will search for Teridax's current location.


Where/when was this revealed?

I don't remember when I said that, but it is accurate

Look out Teridax, here comes the Hagah! Totally sweet.

EDIT: Anybody else thinking of tomorrow?

[Lord Koji]

It was the library event he said that, according to a post in that topic in GD.

Theory time:Facts:1. You said that some old, favorite characters will appear in BL112. The Teridax thing at the mysterious location will be delt with3. The Toa Hagah serialTheory:The theory is the Toa Hagah will appear in BL11 and deal with Teridax (or he deals with them).Am I right? Or close?

No, sorry. Books focus on current set characters. The Hagah are not current sets, and appear in web serial only.

Oh, so close.

It was the library event he said that, according to a post in that topic in GD.

What was the title of that topic?

[Lord Koji]

This should be the topic.

[Azol]

Hey Greg, thank you for answering my last questions.
I hope i'm not disturbing you, but i got some more questions:

1. How does the Av-matoran of Karda-Nui harvest the lightvines?
2. How are matoran created?
3. Does the species of bionicle have to eat?

1) Rip 'em out of the ground
2) I am not allowed to discuss that
3) Most BIONICLE beings "eat" by absorbing energy from certain things (like fruit or fish) through direct physical contact. They don't need to chew and swallow like we do.

1. Ok, actually kinda obliviously
2. Ok
3. That's something i didn't knew

I think Matoran universe is Mata-Nui...Because he never specifically said 700,000 feet. He said Mata-Nui's height is closer tot hat then to 100,000 ft. It's very possible that he's even bigger. All we know on Mata-Nui's height is that he's 700,000 feet or bigger.

Remember that a little more than 5000 ft is a mile, so that means that the Universe is less than 140 miles if Mata Nui is the domed universe, which isn't true as He's smaller than His namesake Island. He may be a dome of his own, but I don't want to make a wrong guess. Plus, *sigh* if he is the universe, then How could he have been created before he was created and activated?

Um.... this is a pretty wierd question. He would have been created when the universe was created, but when Tren Krom was in charge, so he would not be 'active'. When he was 'activated' he would 'gain sentience' if you will, take control of his 'body'. In fact, this was one of the agruments used in favor of Mata Nui being the universe.

But now I favor the 'Mata Nui holding up the universe' theory over the 'Mata Nui is the universe' theory.

Yes, but if he dropped it like the theory states, how would the universe survive a 700,000 foot drop? Plus the GC was more of an earthquake, not a fall.

We shall find out when all is revealed, like always.

we probably should continue this in the Mata Nui Official Topic.

[~Sernakann~]

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!

mata nui is huuuge

[Lord Rahl]

nobody even noticed my last post... mata-nui is NOT in the outside world.

Actually, he never said that. He just said he has no power there, and that it's not his concern. For all we know, he's been sitting on Mata Nui watching the universe from there. That's my theory.

Ah, spoilers.

[Shadow Rahkshi]

Mata Nui is, apparently, 132.57575 miles tall! That's enormous, but believe it or not, I pictured him being bigger. Like as big as the whole domed universe (because I'm a supporter of the Mata Nui=matoran universe theory).

I'll check the size of the domed universe with Greg, and see if they match up.

Too bad I wouldn't get any BIONICLE, because my local store don't have the Titans and I already have the Phantoka and the Matoran

Anyway, at least we could talk about BL10

Sorry for Spam Post

[~Hydrax~]

700 THOUSAND!! Mata Nui is quite a big dude!

I wonder how much Mata Nui will be if he comes out as a set?And how big?

He'll be proportionate to the Toa.
Nah, I think that if he ever is released, it will be in sections found in Titan sets.
Ex.-Right leg in titan 1, Left leg in titan 2 etc.
