Hello Mr. Farshtey, I greatly appreciate your time and always look forward to your answers to my questions.

 

1. Is the 10202 Ultimate Dume set with the exclusive mask the official canon appearance of Makuta Teridax while fighting the Toa Metru and while imprisoned in protodermis?

 

2. What was the color of the Iron Tribe's armor before Telluris and Sahmad decided to change it?

 

3. Are there any historical figures that somewhat inspired any of the Bionicle characters, Toa, Makuta, or other in your writing?


1) I just barely remember that set -- it was 12 years ago -- but sets were generally considered to be canon.

3) No.

3) Only himself

4) Organic only

Hello Mr. Farshtey,

4) During the war between the BoM and the OoMN, when TSO killed Ancient, did he knew (or suspected) Ancient was a double agent, or did he wanted to keep secret the viruses found on Xia so badly that he didn't hesistate to eliminate his right-hand man?


 

4) The latter


1) Did TSO overreact here, not considering that Ancient could still be usefull?
2) Or, did he think that Ancient was clearly a threat to him, imagining that he could attempt to slay him, to steal the viruses and to take over the DH?
3) If yes, did he also do that to prove himself (or to Darkness, maybe) that he could still rule the DH without his right-hand, even in these troubled times for the organization (and since he had these powerfull viruses)?


1) TSO really wasn't in his right mind at that point. That was part of the point of the scene.

Alright, these should be the last questions I have for the foreseeable future. I've been compiling them, as you can see...
 


1. Do you know anything about the Bionicle magazine in Germany and whether it will be released here? A lot of people are wondering about this and the image of it released on Eurobricks.

2. A while back, you approved a BZPower poll that merged by popular vote, Conjurers & TSO's and Ancient's & Tyrant's species and also worked to split TSO's and Ancient's species ...
 
3. Are there more of Johmak's species active in the Order of Mata Nui? (Or is she the only one of her species in that organization?)

4. Do you expect to be writing more for Ninjago after the Dark Island Trilogy is released?

5. Do you expect to write for other LEGO themes like Nexo Knights?
 
6. Would you say there are some areas of the Matoran Universe's protodermis ocean as inhabited (by amphibious/water-dwelling sapient species) as the islands?
 
7. Are there other cities in the Matoran Universe as technologically advanced as Metru Nui?

8. Do you know if Hydraxon's species is amphibious? (This was someone else's question I figured I might as well throw up here.)

1) No idea. Not involved with new BIONICLE.

2) Okay

3) It's possible, yes

4-5) At this point, I can't really "expect" anything when it comes to freelance work. Nowhere near as busy as I used to be. Whether I get to work on stuff is up to the publishers.

6) If you are asking if there are a lot of fish, yes.

7) Don't know. Not that we explored.

8) No I don't believe so.

1. Okay, Good to know, i'll just imagine that Tahu has invisible flamethrowers  in his arms or something Joking

2. Oh, then next time i see the Kanohi Ignika, i'll ask it to give people memories when it transforms them.

3. 1 makes me ask "Okay, Then do the Toa just have invisible modules or rays of gravity that hold the element that they're holding/grabbing/throwing/placing and then go back into the Toa that shot them?"

 

 

Also: I know that for you, answering all these questions is hard, so if you don't feel like it you can just not reply to this one.


I know Mr. Farshtey has already replied to this, but for 3, what is wrong with the Toa simply controlling their respective elements?

 So, the healing power of the Makuta is useless. because the Makuta are not organics. And a Makuta can only 《heal》 himself.

i got 3 questions for you

 

1) where did the turaga get the parts to rebuild the matoran on mata nui

2) if a motoran wearing a noble styled matoran mask (ie: macku) became a toa would the mask be great or noble

3) could artakha make another kraahkan

Hey Greg, I'm not sure if this question has been asked yet, bear with me if it has been:

 

Was there ever any Kanohi names you considered for Artakha's Mask of Creation? Just any that floated around when writing stories. Just curious since Karzahni had the Olisi and that the other two masks of its same power level had Kanohi names too.

I have another question for you Greg. Did the Shadow Leeches attacking Radiak, Gavla, and Kirop give them the noble versions of their respective Makuta's masks? Or were they provided to them after transformation? And was it done to amplify the mask powers of the Makuta they rode?

Hi Mr.Farshtey,

2) Makuta powers such as Heat/Cold Resistence or Limited Invulnerability have to be activated consciously or they just remain active passively?


1) Do you have find something about this?


1) Yes, they are always on.


 

1) Is that the same for the Makuta power of adaptation?

No, because in this case, it is capable of healing its antidermis. Remenber, the organic parts that a Toa with a healing ability would be able to heal are made of protodermis, not muscle and flesh. The Makuta's power allows it to heal antiderrmis

No. Had there been a decision to name it, I would have just taken something off the approved name list.
