Hi! I'm writting to You, Greg, because I want to ask You about some things of Hero Factory. I've got three questions:

 

1. Are books like Meet the Heroes, Heroes in Action, Brain Attack or Brain Wars canonic?

 

2. Could The LEGO Group make a MOC building contest? I mean something like "Build a Dark Hunter" from BIONICLE. I think that it would be great if LEGO organised contest "Build a Hero" or "Build a Villain" and the best MOCs would incorporate into the canon.

 

3. Will we ever find out who is the person who created the Brains?

 

Please, response and thanks for read this.

1) I have not read any of the DK readers, but anything published for HF would have had to have gotten an approval from LEGO Company.

2) The MOC contests we did for BIONICLE were largely done because we had Scholastic books that were going to be devoted to fan models, and we had lots of places we were doing story so we could work new characters in. Neither really applies with HF.

 

3) No idea, I'm not on the HF story team so I don't know what their plans are.

You're assuming they are still intact and have power. The stones may well have been destroyed when Makuta was killed, or their power may have been used up when they were used to send the signal in 2001. At any rate, Velika would not need them, TSO could most likely not access the power, and it's clearly stated on BS01 that Teridax was lying when he told Ahkmou that he was destined to be a Toa.


Hmm, I suppose it might have been used up...

 

But surely you don't have to be destined to be a toa to become on using a TS... Or do you?

Yes, you do - stored toa power won't do much good if you aren't an about-to-transform matoran. (Wait, right?)

 

Although on that note, Mr. Farshtey, what would have happened if the "wrong" matoran had gotten ahold of those stones? (Such as if Vhisola had recieved Nokama's stone?) And furthermore, what if they were to eventually become a toa? (What if Hahli had recieved Nokama's toa stone?)

BS01 says that the toa suva in Metru Nui was unusual in that it could transform matoran into toa, given another toa's energy. If that's unusual, how to matoran normally transform?

Oh, yes, you do. A Toa stone triggers something that is already inside the destined Matoran, and two together make the transformation. If you are not destined, it won't do a thing for you.

No idea why there are no Hero Factory games, I don't work on that end of things. As for BIONICLE, I would love to see it back too, but it's not up to me -- it's up to LEGO Company.

Normally, a Toa stone is required.

But how is the toa stone activated? And what if a destined matoran, like Hahli, were to recieve a toa stone at the wrong time?

In "Legends of Metru Nui" when Teridax was impersonating Dume, he went into that secret chamber, and a pair of red eyes told him that the mask of time would not be completed. Who was he talking to?

Unfortunately, no. The book series was cancelled by Scholastic.
