ive been going through the bionicle site. i watched all the episodes and stuff like that and i found some odd questions
1. What is the shape of the planet mata nui is on?
2. is it the only land form?
3. How come makuta was so easily defeated by the toa if he is sopposed to be all mighty destruction?
4. what is nothing made out of(maybe pure protodermis)?
5. if the toa were transformed by the protodermis than how come the miners had recived no effect from it.

1) more like an s shape
2) you`ve got your islets, so probably no
3) they used their elementeal powers
4) nothing i guess
5) they haven`t been exposed to it long enough as the toa were

these are some very intriging questions, i hope this helps

1. I don't care. (round i guess)
2. of course.
3. I guess Makuta isn't really all that powerful.
4. I don't give a care about nothing. Nothing is made from Nothing.
5. The same reason liquid mercury will kill ya, but solid wont.

5. exactly, darkexotoa! they use SOLID protodermus. the toa were submerged in LIQUID protodermus.

I agree with most of Gahdok's answer's except a few:

1) We don't know what the planet looks like because we've only seen pictures of Mata-nui. The rest is up to our imagination.
4) I don't understand that one.......
5) The miners mine solid protodermis while the Toa were dipped in liquid protodermis.

I'm pretty sure these are right, but correct me if I'm wrong.
Edit: Sorry didn't see those posts!

Ok I'll answer the questions in the order you listed.

Mata Nui might not be on a planet. In fact it might be earth or it might be a floating landmass in the depths of space. The fact is we don't know!

Most likely. Se my above point. It's is probably hidden on the planet earth...under Easter Island, lol!

Because he knew that something was going to unleash...he wasn't sure how. He could fake his escape and return at a better time..with better partners. *cough* RAHKSHI*cough* He decided to escape because he CAN return. He is The Makuta.

If it is nothing then it is not made from anything. What The Makuta meant was that he was always there. Like the atmosphere it was just there.

Because like the below posters said it wasn't fresh liquid protodermis just solid usable mineral protodermis. A solid. It doesnt have affect until it is liquidized.

Hope that helped!

Here's my answers:
1. I don't know... Too few facts to answer your question(expect imagination).
2. Maybe yes... Still toofew facts to answer(except imagination, again).
3. Makuta won't die for easy. If your are big Bionicle fan, your sure know about the movie Mask of Light, and the appear of Rakhshi are also make the return of Makuta will be posible. Only time will tell...
4. Dunno...
5.Almost all people(expect Gahdok the Bitor) have say my answer, so just reference the other person's answer.

Only one ASPECT of Makuta was defeated by the Toa, and keep in mind Makuta was pretty much underestimating their power from the start. The shadow Toa was almost more a way to test their strength than an attempt to actually defeat them...

Once Makuta had an idea how strong they were... he pulled back, unleashed the Bohrok to keep the Toa busy, and began planning his next move and regaining his strength.

No offence but if Makuta realeased the Bohrok then the Bahrag would have to be Makuta, and I doubt that.

I think Mata Nui is on a round planet. Just take a look at Kotu's drawings in her hut in the MNOLG. I also think there are many other landforms on Mata Nui, since there probably won't just be one small island and 165(I counted them) islets. It's unlikely, think about it. As for the, "What is nothing made out of," I think it's either plasma(but then it wouldn't be nothing,) or is just an illusion.

1: Mata-Nui is not a Planet. It is an island, and it is just.. somewhere else, and just take that for an answer.

2: Yes, afterall, where is Paradise? Where does Makuta live? Where did the Toa come from?

3: Well, we don't actually know that Makuta was easy to defeat.

4: Nothing is made of Nothing.

5: The Bahrag's Protodermis was liquid, and if it was used by the Bahrag, then it may contain more than just pure Protodermis...

he didnt say he was controlling 'em, just that he unleashed, or freed(ie woke up) the bohrok

Still #4
nothing has to be something or else it wouldnt be there it may be an obllivion of darkness or even a void or rip in time and space but nothing has to be something or else you wouldnt know about it.
oh and for jango fett there

The bahrag didnt release them i dont know who but the bahrag were fought later after the toas found all the krana so my theroy for the bohrok is they were awakened by the disturbence in nothing. Also the bahrag are the commanders of the kranas so they would have to be connected in some way but not the ones who awoke them.
