So... will that book be translated into Polish or whatever? Or will it stay English, because then I might be able to buy it via Amazon?

Umm... the book is going to be released in Poland, so it surely be translated to Polish. Polish kids don't speak English well at age od 9-11 (Well, there are some who do, like I did when I was 10, but there aren't many...)

Speaking of Translation - Greg, do you know who will translate the info in the book? I hope that the translator isn't the same guy who translated Bionicle.com - he propably does'nt know Polish at all, because the Site is very badly translated. And how much will the book cost?

I'll find a way to get that book and read it. It doesn't hurt that I have polish friends. I hope you had a fun birthday.

Cool.. a new map. Can't wait to see it.

Also, happy birthday in advance! (Since we don't know when it is..)

Nice stuff.

But if you say you drew a map of the BIONICLE universe, do you mean the Matoran universe or the entire planet? I think the latter would heavily interfere with 2009 and beyond.

Good to hear book sales in germany are "ok". As far as I know only BL6 &7 were translated into German and I never heard of anything else. If they mean any Bionicle sales in germany, remember to thank the German fans ehre at BZP who order all english books via amazon

I have good idea of what the map is gonna look like. =D

Universe Map?!

A BIONICLE MAP?! *Bounces off walls and ceiling with excitement, then lands neatly and straightens tie* Ahem.

*puts tape in radio* A merry, merry unbirthday to you, to you...

Again, Ahem.

Congrats on the house, and good luck at the meeting. Sounds like sales are doing prety good.

Ooh wow! A map! I can't wait to see it!

Maybe it will all make sense after that...

Thanks for the information as always, Greg!

Thank you so much!

MATORAN UNIVERSE MAP = YES

Will it only have major locations, or all of them? If the latter, than I want to see it even more.

A map??? SWEEET!

Now when you say map, do you mean map of all the places we have heard about so far (Stelt, Xia, Destral, etc.) or a map of EVERY place, even those we haven't yet seen?

Me wants map see....

YES! I LIVE IN EASTERN EUROPE! (Or maybe it's western, I'm currently too excited about buying this Nintendo Wii game)

Universe map - the best thing I ever heard.

sales are going okay in Germany and France and very well in Russia,

HOW CAN IT BE POSSIBLE?

I never have bought book with translations so awful as in these books. I'm always bying English originals from Amazon instead of this junk - Russian BIONICLE books are just a waste of money and paper.

Does the map have just locations we know of? I was under the impression there were dozens/hundreds of domes we had no direct knowledge of.

Can't wait to see the map of the Universe. Everything else sounds cool, too.

Don't generalize so much Lemo. I'm certainly convinced, that many younger fans, members of Polish Bionicle Forums know english pretty well.

I already told Greg few years ago, that in Polish language version Nidhiki was a 'she' not 'he' as it was supposed to be. Hopefully we will get a new translator.

I'm looking forward to this book. I'm surely getting it, and I will make scans as soon as possible. Finally something good is going to show up in our country. It may be a sign of good will of publishers, and a trial, whether the books will sell in our country or not. We must finally get them! You have no idea how hard was it to get Prisoners of the Pit in Poland... Luckily I know english pretty well... Or rather I think so

My guess is that the map will clear up a lot of the Mata Nui mysteries. (Greg confirmed in a post a while back that the lay-out of the islands is relevant to Mata Nui)

I am going to force my parents to travel to Euorope just to get that guidebook... And happy (Late) birthday Greg!

Ooh, I'd really like to see the map. Do you know if that Polish guidebook may be imported to America and translated to English?

Oh, and (I know it's early), but happy birthday!
