Hey, Greg, sorry for asking the same question again, but I didn't properly word it, so I got a different answer I was looking for. Basically, in Stone Cold, what are the names of those villains Sensei Wu ambushed after fighting Gahrann the Dreamer?


They have no names. I had no need to name them in the story.


Also...

 

1. Do you plan to have a contest to name and give a backstory to these villains, or will you just leave it up to the readers' imagination?

 

2. Does Garmadon have power over shattering, seeing how he made the mirror break in Stone Cold?

 

3. Why did the effects of the Stone Army's coming arrival suddenly disappear after Zane read the prophecy?

 

4. Was Samukai once part of Kirchonn's army, seeing as both had an unusual number of arms?

 

5. Why was the Mask of Malice in a tree (in the last few panels of Stone Cold), and how did it suddenly fall?

 

6. Are the Zyglak still in the abandoned MU, seeing as how they refused to leave in the Kingdom? 


1) No, for a couple of reasons. One, I have no plans to  use them again, and two, it is much harder to do official LEGO contests now than it used to be due to new laws regarding contests for kids.

2) I wouldn't say power over shattering, no.

 

3) Not sure what you are referring to?

 

4) No

 

5) That's a mystery

 

6) Could be

Hey! As you may have noticed a lot of kids are really upset about the LEGO Simpsons theme coming. What is your opinion? I think it was a great move Happy

Anyways, I really like your work! 

 

 

 


No, I hadn't noticed. But, as with any LEGO theme, if they don't like something, I assume they won't buy it. People who do like it will. That's the way it works with any product. As for my opinion, I work for LEGO Company, I support what they do, and I root for every line to be successful.

I don't believe that it does, and since LEGO Company approved the script for the book, they obviously didn't see a  big problem with it either. The vast majority of the book is a flashback to Wu's past, which to my knowledge has really not been covered a lot in the series.

If it doesn't have a name now, I can't give it one. There are no more approved BIONICLE names to choose from.

I am wanting to make the story...Sort of making the veiwers guessing what is going to happen, or making the people reading to 'Stick" to the story(By keep on reading it). If you don't understand just go to the topic on "Dinos" and please read the 2 chapters! Thanks! Smile

Greg,

 

  1. If you can make any LEGO theme, what would it be?
  2. What HF set do you prefer for me to get? I can't decide whether it should be Rocka or Furno?
  3. Do they still sell the Hero Factory novels?
  4. What's your favorite video game?

 


1)  As I have said elsewhere on this board, if I had a great idea for a LEGO theme, I would give it to my bosses, not announce it on a public chat board

2) That's up to you. I don't know your taste in sets.

 

3) Yes.

 

4) Don't have one.


Good interview! I don't have a favorite video game either, and I would NEVER tell anyone about a LEGO theme I'd make up.

 

  1. Is it true that LEGO will make LEGO Simpsons, the most highly inappropiate TV show ever made? (Next to Family Guy and American Dad (if that is what it's called))
  2. Which book that you made is your favorite?
  3. Was BIONICLE Stars supposed to replace BIONICLE when the theme was gone?
  4. Do you know how much I am excited to be asking questions to a real author?!

The best way to make readers stick with the story is to end each chapter with a cliffhanger, so people have to come back for the next chapter.
