Hi mr greg I know I asked you this question, but you never answered. Why the Makuta have never used their quick healing power? or dodge?


Just because we haven't shown it in story doesn't mean they have never used  it. They have 42 powers and we only had so much room to show power use in story.

Probably #7, where I got to create all those new villains for Sensei Wu to fight.

Um Hi! I never really got a reply, so may I ask my questions again?

1) In most of the graphic novels, Cole seems to have a major role compared to the TV series. Was it intentional to give Cole more focus?

2) In your opinion, how old do you think the five ninja are?

3) Who's your favorite character to write for in both NINJAGO and BIONICLE?

a dead body and say, a Maxilos or Exo-Toa?

2. Okay mthen

4. What about Quick Healing? Or quickly teleporting to  a place they can, fix it then come back?

5. Ah

9. Alright


1) A dead body has organic tissue in it. A Maxilos or an Exo-Toa is just a machine, it can't be living or dead.

4) They were in the middle of a pitched battle for Karda Nui, there wasn't time to desert it.


1. Oh ok

4. I was thinking more like say Antroz left, while the other blinded ones stayed, he repaired then came back. Then Chirox, and so forth.


There weren't so many Makuta in Karda Nui that they could afford to lose one, especially once the Toa were there. I would also suggest double-checking how Makuta teleportation works -- can they teleport if they cannot see where they are going? (They may be able to, I honestly don't remember how we defined that power.)


I know. But surely they would've been smart enough to bring things like Rahkshi and stuff, correct? Also I believe it was similar to Gaaradus's power, if they know the layout, they can teleport. I'm not sure. But I'm saying like, even Mutran, who doesn't do stuff could teleport to bring things that could be used to heal it, and then, they could smash it when done.


 

1. So, there needs to be a Rahkshi set for them to be in the story? *points to Arthaka, Tren Krom and tons of others who don't have sets*

2. So how come they couldn't stop being blinded?


 

1) The Karda Nui fight was "main story," built around that year's sets. Non-set characters were always part of side stories. Think about it - when did you ever see Artakha or Tren Krom in a comic? You didn't, because they weren't sets. You don't put characters into main story that kids cannot go out and buy, because the point of main story is promote sets sales.

 

2) Makuta are extraordinarily vulnerable to light.


1. Fair enough. I'm just saying, a few Rahkshi grunts wouldn't hurt.

2. So, the blindness HELPED?

Hi Greg, I Have one question very important, i can´t sleep because of that.
What can you tell us about  the Mysterious Voice who instructed Lewa to Retrieve the Great Sundial?
Who is this Mysterious voice?
Have a Nice Day Smile

1) Sort of. Characters who don't get as much screen time in the show can use it elsewhere.

2) I am not sure how old they are officially supposed to be. I always thought of them as 13-15, myself, but that may  not be the official age.

 

3) Kopaka and Jay

1) No, not really. The inability to see light wouldn't stop a light attack from damaging you. If that was the case, a Makuta would just need to  hide his eyes whenever Takanuva was around.

Hello again!

 

I have a few questions this time, about Rahi and the Kanohi Faxon.

 

1. Could aspects of a Rahi's physiology be copied by a Faxon, such as gaining the strength of an Ash Bear, or being able to turn into a Lightning bolt like an Avohkah?

 

2a Was there a limit to the distance that a Fader Bull could teleport?

 

2bi Was the Fader Bull's ability to teleport with its herd but also its unfortunate tendency to appear inside solid objects to do with its level of intelligence?  Being a herd animal, it would have probably possessed some sort of shared consciousness with the rest of the herd, allowing it to remain with them, but its actual sense of direction and distance - not to mention understanding of the teleportation itself - would have given it poor control over it.  That's my theory, anyway.

 

2bii If so, would a Faxon user (provided that they were an intelligent, sentient being) have been able to use the Fader Bull's ability almost like a Kualsi?

 

Thanks!


Has this been missed, by any chance?

This question has really been driving me crazy. Do all matoran normally have the same build as the pre-Great Cataclysm matoran in Metru Nui? Also, can Karda Nui make all matoran grow in size, or just av-matoran? Thank you!

Hey Greg! I have moar questions! First, can Kraata form kaitas/nuis without Rahkshi? Which, kaita or nui? Could on Olmak user move one end of a portal to, for example, bring a pillar of material zooming out the other end to smash through a foe's armor? If possible, would such an attack cause enough pain to a Makuta that they could not remove the Olmak remotely using their various powers? What would you compare the southern continent's size to in real world terms? America, Europe, 4 north americas stacked on top of each other? Thanks!

In theory, a Nova Blast is simply a Toa releasing all of their Elemental Energy in a massive pulse/explosion, right? However, the only successful example of one we've seen in the series involved the toa (Gali) drawing in outside water to contribute to the explosion. Haller's unsuccessful one, however, simply seemed to be him prepping his entire elemental energy reserve. Is outside absorption of the Toa's element a necessary part of the Nova blast, or was it just an extra step that Gali took to increase its power?

Hey, Greg, it just occured to me that Bionicle has a lot of potential for post-apocolyptic alternate universes. You yourself have created two, The Kingdom and the Toa Empire universe, but there's also a bunch of questions that could allow a fan to create such unfortunate universes, like "What if the League of Six Kingdoms succeded?", "What if the Kestora managed to reach the Matoran Universe?", "What if Teridax managed to turn all the Toa into Hordika while he was in control of the universe?", and so on and so forth. So, I have to ask...is this intentional? Disappointed

 

Yeah, that's my major question out of the way, here's a bunch of shorter ones:

 

  • If any combined six elements used by Toa can create a Toa Seal, what if all of the Toa used a Nova Blast's worth of energy to create a Toa Seal? What would happen? Would the Toa Seal just be thicker?
  • What would happen if a Toa Kaita did a Nuva Blast? Are they even able to?
  • It's been shown with the Aki and Rua that Mask powers can be combined into a single, at least with a Toa Kaita. With this in mind, is it possible to use two powers at once to have a better result (Like, say, a Toa Kaita using the powers of a Mask of Sensory Aptitude and a Hau in order to create a shield that wouldn't break due to an ambush)?
  • How much pain would a Makuta feel if he/she got slammed into a wall by a giant pillar of Protosteel that kept on pushing?
