Um, yes, that is what White Alligator's announcement at the start of the topic said.


what are the ninjago set prices in the uk


No idea. I am based in the US and I don't work on the Sales end of things. I would suggest looking at the LEGO Shop website for the UK.

Is it possible for new Matoran to be created on Spherus Magna?

Dear Mr. Farshtey,

 

1) Are there other planets in the Solis Magna system (the system that Spherus Magna is in) with intelligent, sapient lifeforms?

 

2) Is the Mata Nui Robot capable of faster-than-light travel with the Red Star on its back?

 

3) I hate to be beating a dead horse, if I'm using that saying correctly, but I have one more question about the SM inhabitant physiology: If they don't have metallic bones, then how does that explain the metallic appearance of their weapons? I suppose they could've coated the organic bones in metal, but then why not just make the weapon metal all throughout?

 

4) Its stated that during the Core Wars the Glatorians had access to ranged  blaster weaponry, correct? Were these weapons commonplace during the war? From all the expanded media it seems like they were only using their normal swords/blade melee weapons.

If a Bionicle dies for natural causes (like poison, or agr), can they be revived in the Red Star, or they won't get another chance to live?

I have two questions, one from curiosity and the other from extreme desire. But first let me say I am a huge fan! The things you did with the Bionicle story, characters, worlds, and so forth are amazing! I haven't kept up with the other series too well (Ninjago and Hero Factory), although they are good in their own ways. After Bionicle was stopped, I became upset. Now I have this never-ceasing aching/longing in my heart for Bionicle, at least for the stories to be completed in some way.

 

1. When you started work on Bionicle, did you have any idea that it would turn out the way it did? Had the Great Beings, giant robot bodies, other planets, or even the other Toa and creatures encountered been thought up and planned on, or was it sort of on the fly?

 

2. Will you ever continue the Bionicle story? As noted above, I have an EXTREME desire for you to. You really left us hanging. You started something on this other planet and never let us know what happened to some Toa and others. It just stops. I LOVE the story so much, and really want to see more! I'm collected all the books, movies, and comics that I can.

I am a big fan of the toys and the amazing story. Both are great. The toys, although some of them broke too easily, have been a big part of my childhood. Collecting masks was fun, and sets were unique and interesting. I even got the Mask of Time as it appears after being relocated in the sea! I absolutely love the books and comics! The story is VERY well done.

The games, videos, and music have also been really great. I miss it all very much, especially the physical things I haven't gotten my hands on and the digital things that are gone. I'd love to see a disc with the videos (music videos included), games, interactive comics, etc. They tell more of the story and/or are just plain fun, and some I never got to see or finish. The website had a lot of great stuff and the codes were neat.

 

Could any of this possibly come back in any way?

At the moment, probably not - I wouldn't think the tech to do that survived the robot's collapse.

1) Yes

2) No

3) I am not sure I understand your question. Why does the metal in the weapons have to come from bones? We know, for example, that iron exists on this planet, there was an Iron tribe.

4) No, they were not common

Poison wouldn't be a natural cause. But yes, a being whose parts simply wear out could be revived under the old system.

1) Some things were, some things weren't. Certainly the Great Beings existed from the start. But as with any story, as you need to expand it, you add more things.

2) Not at the moment, no. I did talk to someone at the company about it a while ago, but understandably the focus here has to be on lines that are active.

I believe it was mentioned earlier in the thread that there is a fan site where all the web content, etc. is collected, I can't see LEGO doing anything like this officially since there is no point in promoting sets we aren't selling.
