Electro522: ok maybe we should slow this chat down a bit….
ScottHetfield109: I see you’re blocking outer IMs, Greg.
AnthroHedgehog: XD
KrNbOy2893: what kinds of questions can you answer like what types?????
Electric Turahk: Can we ask about 2006 sets?
capnbonesiii has entered the room.
KrNbOy2893: ?

Electric Turahk: Thank you..
KrNbOy2893: ook
Electro522: *lurks*
KrNbOy2893: hmm
ScottHetfield109: that makes sense

DkMgcnGrl: i dont see his screen name
KrNbOy2893: how are the 2006 comics gonna be like greg?
capnbonesiii: not here yet
ScottHetfield109: for starters, can’t we introduce each other?
Electric Turahk: Okay, I’d like to know what you can tell us about how the Piraka go poseability wise.
KrNbOy2893: how are they gonna be like?
DkMgcnGrl: thought not
AnthroHedgehog: *w00t 1st question tegged by me*
darcy3352000: Like the Piraka. o-o
AnthroHedgehog: tagged*
ScribeGT: Wo, wo, slow down 🙂
KrNbOy2893: ok
KrNbOy2893: first
KrNbOy2893: ET
ScribeGT: Let me answer some
Electric Turahk: Ok.
darcy3352000: The piraka matoran look like the Toa Metru… but all matoran-like.
darcy3352000: o-o
ScribeGT: First off, on set leakage, it unfortunately happens every year
Electric Turahk: ..
KrNbOy2893: yeah
ScribeGT: I know the company is now trying to track down the source
ScottHetfield109: Jake McKee discussed it on the last chat, for reference
Electric Turahk: ok…
AnthroHedgehog: I was at the last chat
ScribeGT: and take care of it.
Cee estee: you can’t stop the leakage, so why get mad at it?
Electric Turahk: k
Electric Turahk: that’s good
Mark of MoD: Only questions for Greg folks, please!
KrNbOy2893: what about the comics for 2006 how are they gonna be like?
Electric Turahk: Okay, I’d like to know what you can tell us about how the Piraka go poseability wise.
Electric Turahk: ^NEXT QUESTION^

Electric Turahk: I hope they’re better, not worse.
ScribeGT: I’ll be releasing the name to the fan sites in about two weeks
Electric Turahk: MY QUESTION IS NEXT!
dragonworks2050: How about this first: How are the species in Bionicle broken up? We’ve recently seen a lot of the lines between Rahi, matoran, toa, DH, and titans broken down. Are they real “categories”?
Turaga Dume1: Yes!
KrNbOy2893: ok
Electric Turahk: Okay.
KrNbOy2893: kool
Electric Turahk: Okay, I’d like to know what you can tell us about how the Piraka go poseability wise.
Electric Turahk: ^THAT^
ScottHetfield109: awesome, I’ll be sure to hear it.
Legoguy607: nice
ScribeGT: Re Piraka poseability
ScribeGT: I really have no info, I have not built one
Electric Turahk: ?
AnthroHedgehog: Yes, did the idea for [the Piraka’s]fingers come from BZP mocs? Because there are alot of MoC’s that use that finger design
Electric Turahk: Oh.
ScribeGT: I have seen them in the showroom, that’s it
ScribeGT: We don’t have the sets in-house yet
darcy3352000: >>Next questiondarcy3352000: >.>
Electric Turahk: Okay, can you tell us anymore you havne’t told BZP?
Electric Turahk: about the Piraka*
KrNbOy2893: is there going to be a 4th movie?
InnerRayg: …Try taking turns, people.
DkMgcnGrl has left the room.
ScribeGT: Let me do DM’s question first — I am not sure what you mean by the lines “broken down,” DM
Electric Turahk: Okay…
DkMgcnGrl has entered the room.
AnthroHedgehog: (off topic:is bzpower working for anyone else?)
Electric Turahk: Let me interpret.
Electric Turahk: I think I know what he means, Greg.
DkMgcnGrl: no its not
KrNbOy2893: Woah woah woah
dragonworks2050: Matoran turning to toa turning to Rahi, Toa turning to DHs, etc.
ScribeGT: Well, DH is not a species — DH is a job
KrNbOy2893: lol
skyllo92: Can you give us something exclusive about the Piraka? Please?
KrNbOy2893: yes
Turaga Dume1: lol
DkMgcnGrl has left the room.

Electric Turahk: Please, eveyrone, please stop so we can figure out what Greg is saying.
Electro522: *long silence*
Dart a Larsen: >>Next QuestionAnthroHedgehog: These chats really need more order
dragonworks2050: What exactly is the distinction between Rahi and matoran/toa? It’s obviously not sentience, and both are DHs.
Trunks1020110201: Just stop talking!
KrNbOy2893: wait
Trunks1020110201: Let greg answer questions please
ScribeGT: On the Piraka —

capnbonesiii has entered the room.
ScribeGT: No plans for a fourth movie
KrNbOy2893: oh ok
Turaga Dume1: Good
Electro522: I”m glad, I’m tired of the red being the leader
Electric Turahk: …
ScribeGT: No plans I know of for a comic anthology, though that may change
Electric Turahk: Ok..
Dart a Larsen: Okay, I look forward to hearing about that.
ScribeGT: Yes, Flame, we did get it
KrNbOy2893: are they goin to make a new bionicle game for gcube xbox, etc?
Electro522: Will the Green Leader be serious like other red leaders or foolish like the previous green characters?
KrNbOy2893: question^
ScribeGT: I believ there is another game planned, yes
KrNbOy2893: sweet
Turaga Dume1: Yahoo!
Cee estee: you said there’s a new artist, does that include a new colourist?

DkMgcnGrl has left the room.
DkMgcnGrl has entered the room.
Dart a Larsen: Worded that way on purpose, Greg?
DSBrush: Will most of the 2006 story be told in the comics and game?
Matoro Nuju has left the room.
BZPScreenguy: Greg, could you by any chance tell us about the 2006 RPG that is going to come out on Bionicle.com later this year?dragonworks2050: I gtg for dinner. I’ll be back.

isipt4 has entered the room.
Electric Turahk: ok…
AnthroHedgehog: ….that’s too bad
ScribeGT: Comics and novels
KrNbOy2893: or that’s what i heard..
AnthroHedgehog: a bionicle MMORPG would own
darcy3352000: The online RPG will be multiplayer?
Electric Turahk: Greg, can you tell us anything about the black Piraka’s fist fight?
isipt4: Hi im late for the chat arent I…?
KrNbOy2893: p
darcy3352000: o-o
ScribeGT: Game is sort of in a universe of its own, in a way
DSBrush: oh cool
Dart a Larsen: Nice…
Electric Turahk: Yes, isipt.
Electric Turahk: sweet.
KrNbOy2893: when would the sets come out around?
DkMgcnGrl has left the room.
capnbonesiii: interesting
ScribeGT: Takanuva is left behind because someone has to guard Metru Nui
DkMgcnGrl has entered the room.
Electric Turahk: Hm.
KrNbOy2893: oh
GammaCyclone: That would be cool
KrNbOy2893: ok
Electric Turahk: Greg, can you tell us anything about the black Piraka’s fist fight?

Electric Turahk: good, good…
darcy3352000: Fist fight…?
KrNbOy2893: thakns
ScribeGT: No, Metru Nui, Darcy
AnthroHedgehog: What about our ol’ pal Ahkmou? does he have a larger role anytime soon?
darcy3352000: …
Electric Turahk: Yes, fist fight.
BZPScreenguy: So then the game can have a different storyline than the official storyline – it changes because of member actions?
Electro522: what are the chances of the matoran being released before christmad?
Trunks1020110201: When will the Piraka Be Realesed?
Electric Turahk: hm
Electro522: *christmas
ScribeGT: It’s possible Electro
KrNbOy2893: what cool stuff can we expect besides the new sets and games?
Electric Turahk: That would be cool (what Screenguy said)
darcy3352000: Why do the 2006 matoran look like the Toa Metru?
Electric Turahk: …
ScribeGT: BZP — it sort of has to, because of the demands of a game
ScribeGT: You are playing Toa in the game
InnerRayg: You people are asking some darn silly questions
Electric Turahk: yup 😛
Electric Turahk: Greg, can you tell us anything about the black Piraka’s fist fight?
Electric Turahk: DUH!
Cee estee: o.0
KrNbOy2893: he’s been here
AnthroHedgehog: Do you create your own toa?
ScribeGT: and you have to be able to defeat Piraka throughout it
Electric Turahk: He’s ScribeGT!
Cee estee: rayg, roller just proved your point
Mark of MoD: Greg, I noticed the “portals” on Metru Nui were called something else recently. Why the name change?
DSBrush: will the turaga and the matoran stay on Metru Nui?
Electric Turahk: sweet…
KrNbOy2893: awesome
KrNbOy2893: nice
ScribeGT: No, you play one of the characters
Electric Turahk: Yes, Bush.
AnthroHedgehog: oh…
ScribeGT: Yes, they will, DS
Electric Turahk: I know some info, I think I can help.
Electric Turahk: BZP has been told A LOT.
BZPScreenguy: Sounds great, Greg. Thanks for the answers.
Electric Turahk: right, Greg?
Electric Turahk: Yeah, thanks.
KrNbOy2893: is the game going to be like the first bionicle game for game cube… you know the one with takanuva on the front?
KrNbOy2893: similar to that?
Electric Turahk: well ,not a lot, but a lot about the questions being asked..
Trunks1020110201: Thank you for the Info Greg
skyllo92: how much of the game have you seen/play?
DkMgcnGrl has left the room.
darcy3352000: The PC game, you mean?
Electric Turahk: I’m making a fool of myself, aren’t I?
ScribeGT: Haven’t played it, so couldn;t say — the game is not programmed yet
Electro522: yes u are xD
KrNbOy2893: oh
Electric Turahk: lol
KrNbOy2893: lol
Cee estee has left the room.
Electric Turahk: oh
KrNbOy2893: gmm..
Electric Turahk: that sucks…
InnerRayg: Greg: When you have time, I have a simple question
ScribeGT: The script for the game is currently being revised
Electric Turahk: k…
KrNbOy2893: oh ok
GammaCyclone: I do to
KrNbOy2893: kool
ScribeGT: Sure Rayg
skyllo92: ok
AnthroHedgehog: Are the Piraka on there own side? Do they have a common motive?
Electro522: whatever happened to the turaga dume comics?
capnbonesiii: any idea how much storyline basis the game’ll have?
InnerRayg: I’m wondering if the script for the new comic will be released early sometime, like the previous issue?
BZPScreenguy: This is supposed to be an online RPG – it probably won’t have as good graphics as previous console or PC Bionicle games. It sounds like it will be multiplayer too, like other MMORPGs, possibly.
ScribeGT: Roller, that really isn’t much of a question
Electric Turahk: Anthro, I believe it was said the Piraka are renagade Dark Hunters.
capnbonesiii: or will it be mostly just battle?
AnthroHedgehog: What ever happened to the Proto-Squad?
ScribeGT: The script, Rayg? No, no plans for that
dragonworks2050 has left the room.
InnerRayg: Alas.
KrNbOy2893: are there going to be something such as koros or metrus as there are on the islands?
Electric Turahk: Greg, can you tell us anything about the black Piraka’s fist fight?
ScribeGT: Such as what, ET?
Electric Turahk: Like who it’s with?
ScribeGT: No, Kr, all the Matoran on the new island live in one settlement
KrNbOy2893: you know like ko-kore
KrNbOy2893: oh
KrNbOy2893: ok
AnthroHedgehog: What ever happened to the Proto-Squad?
ScribeGT: Let’s see .. multiple Toa Nuva
DragSoul has entered the room.
Electric Turahk: Okay.
Electric Turahk: That’s good enough for me. Thanks.
GammaCyclone: SO does he win?
KrNbOy2893: do they have one certain leader on the island?
ScribeGT: When we switched it over to email, we got very few addresses in
Electric Turahk: ?
DragSoul: what?
Electric Turahk: what?
darcy3352000: Roller, quit saying that.
InnerRayg: Just ignore Roller everyone
Electric Turahk: *ignores roller*
KrNbOy2893: roller get out
Turaga Dume1: Kick Roller, please
capnbonesiii has left the room.
ScribeGT: So the brand team didn’t think it was worth sending out an e-mailing to so few people
Dart a Larsen: Ignore roller, he’s being a nuisecnce.
Electric Turahk: hmm
darcy3352000: It’s rude and we do not need it here.
Electric Turahk: Okay, is that about the Proto Squad, Greg?
InnerRayg: It was ET
Electric Turahk: ok
ScribeGT: Yes — same thing happened when we did the sign up a friend thing
Electric Turahk: Ah, I remember that.
ScribeGT: Out of 500 or so people, we got maybe 10 cards back
Electro522: whatever happened to the turaga dume comics?
Electric Turahk: wow
DragSoul: i just want to no how much the new moive cost and a lil bout it
Electric Turahk: Proto-squard obviously didn’t go too well.
ScribeGT: They are done, Electro — if they don’t make it on the web, scripts will be sent to the fan sites for posting
GammaCyclone: So does the black piraka win the fist fight?
KrNbOy2893: so the island is pretty much going to be a dark place… right?
capnbonesiii has entered the room.
Electric Turahk: …
Electro522: ah that’s good, I hope they make it to the site though…
ScribeGT: You will have to follow the story and see, Gamma
BZPScreenguy: Does this fist fight occur in the comics, or the book?
GammaCyclone: Man -_-
ScribeGT: It didn’t use to be, Kr, but it is now
ScribeGT: In the first book
AnthroHedgehog: *or both*
Electric Turahk: Greg, one more question from me for now.
KrNbOy2893: ok
Electric Turahk: Oh, that’s good to know.
InnerRayg: That reminds me…I’ve been hoping that someday we might actually have another drawing contest, like the original Proto-Squad contest. Any possibility of this happening?
KrNbOy2893: thanks
KrNbOy2893: brb people
capnbonesiii: sorry, my connection keeps conking out… didja see my question, Greg?
Electric Turahk: Well, do you know anything about the online Dume comic that turned out to NOT BE ON THE DVD like it was suposed to be?
ScribeGT: We are doing one for Knights, Rayg, might for BIONICLE too
InnerRayg: He already answered that ET
ScribeGT: The online Dume comic was never planned for the DVD
ScribeGT: Ever
capnbonesiii: how much of a storyline basis will the game have, if you know, other than just battle?
InnerRayg: Good to hear 🙂
Dart a Larsen: That’d be sweet.
Mark of MoD: Greg, how many books are planned for the “Legends” series?
Dart a Larsen: Drawing contests sound awesome. 😀
GammaCyclone: Drawing contest?
Electric Turahk: Oh.
ScribeGT: Capn, some, but it will not slavishly follow the story in the comics and books.
Electric Turahk: I thought it was.
AnthroHedgehog: Will the Proto-Squad website’s info become free for everyone?(or is it all old info)
capnbonesiii: ok
isipt4 has left the room.
InnerRayg: It’s old info Anthro
AnthroHedgehog: Ok thanks Rayg
skyllo92: Do you have an idea when the “summer” Dume comics will be up?
InnerRayg: stuff about the Toa Nuva and Rahkshi 😛
Electric Turahk: *shuts up and watches chat*
ScribeGT: Mark, we have four novels planned for next year, and assuming we keep that title, probably 4 for 2007 and four for 2008
GammaCyclone: Cool
DragSoul: i want to play the old cronicler game
capnbonesiii: and guide books?
Dart a Larsen: How long do they plan to be?
Electric Turahk: sweet
ScribeGT: Two per year, most likely
Electric Turahk: Yeah, guide books?
Electric Turahk: good
Dart a Larsen: (Page length, I mean.)
capnbonesiii: cool
Electric Turahk: that’s good to hear
ScribeGT: Novels are all 20,000 words
Electric Turahk: O.o
Electric Turahk: …
Trunks1020110201: Will we ever see the Rahaga Again Greg?
ScottHetfield109: 20,000? Wow.
GammaCyclone: When does the Dark Hunters Guide planned to be released
Electric Turahk: Wow indeed.
ScribeGT: It’s possible, Trunks — and Gamma, most likely June
ScribeGT: 2006
GammaCyclone: Cool
Electric Turahk: Hmm.
Electric Turahk: That’s not too long.
DragSoul: how old r yall
Electric Turahk: And it’s a good wait.
Dart a Larsen: Yes.
Electric Turahk: for somethign so good
ScribeGT: Book is written, just finished it yesterday
ScottHetfield109: must ask, Greg… are there any plans on using the Vahi once more later on?
Electric Turahk: cool

ScribeGT: Titles for BL3 and BL4, if you like
skyllo92: tell us!
Electric Turahk: YES!
Electric Turahk: Please tell us.
KrNbOy2893: ?
InnerRayg: That would be intresting, I guess
capnbonesiii: cool?
GammaCyclone: Yes Please
skyllo92: Please
Dart a Larsen: *nod*
BZPScreenguy: We’re all ears.
ScribeGT: BL3 is Power Play .. BL4 is Inferno

Electric Turahk: hmm
InnerRayg: Just ignore him already FlameKestral
ScottHetfield109: nice
Turaga Dume1: Sweet
ScottHetfield109: straight to the point and stuff
DragSoul has left the room.
KrNbOy2893: are you allowed to give us names of some of the new masks?
DSBrush: Cool names I’ll buy it like normal
Dart a Larsen: Power Play sounds interesting…
KrNbOy2893: if so
darcy3352000: Greg… I once saw in a book shop… there was this Bionicle book collection that said it included a Poisoned Hau Nuva in it… was it true? I was unable to buy it, but did it really include a PHN?
capnbonesiii: interestin
Electric Turahk: doesn’t sound that great, but Inferno is an awesome title
KrNbOy2893: what are some
GammaCyclone: Sweet
skyllo92: Inferno WoW
Electric Turahk: leeds to interesting thoughts
ScribeGT: I would, Kr, but don’t have names handy
Electro522: those are awesome titles
Mark of MoD: Greg, is there backstory on the Bohrok and Bahrag that we have not been given yet?
KrNbOy2893: ..
KrNbOy2893: o
KrNbOy2893: well what do some of them look like
ScribeGT: Yes, it did, Darcy
Mecha Fury: Greg? Do the Piraka where masks,
InnerRayg: Darcy, that did indeed come with a PHN originally, however later copies actually included Lhikan’s Hau
Electric Turahk: …
ScribeGT: Yes, Mark
ScribeGT: No, Mecha, they don’t
Trunks1020110201: Will there be more Bohrok in the Future Greg?
Mark of MoD: Darcy, book collection may or may not have a PHN. Definitely does contain a mask though.
ScribeGT: I think so, Trunks
darcy3352000: Ah,
GammaCyclone: Will there be another set of books?
Dart a Larsen: I hope so. : )
Electric Turahk: …
KrNbOy2893: brb
ScribeGT: Possible, up to Scholastic
Trunks1020110201: Cool!
GammaCyclone: Yea!
Trunks1020110201: Thats good info!
Electric Turahk: hmm
darcy3352000: One more thing. I ask this… why do the 2006 Matoran look suspiciously like the Toa Metru… just… Shorter?
capnbonesiii has left the room.
GammaCyclone: now i know not to buy the books
Electric Turahk: Yeah…
Mecha Fury: I jut saw that the “Faces” of the piraka are dteachable
ScribeGT: Ah, there is a story reason for that, Darcy
InnerRayg: *Ears perk up*
AnthroHedgehog: what do they worship em?
ScottHetfield109: Now, in your interview, you had said Scholastic has the authority to change any story… do you think they’ll weigh in any time this coming year?
Electric Turahk: And exactly how much different are the DoomToran masks different from the Toa Metru?
capnbonesiii has entered the room.
Electric Turahk: Oh, what would this story reason be? *if you can tell us*
ScribeGT: Nope, Scott — I don’t
Trunks1020110201: So are Axxon and Brutaka going to be realesed Greg?
darcy3352000: Hmm? Please tell us.
Dart a Larsen: So those are the official images of the 2006 Matoran?
ScottHetfield109: that’s good to know
Mecha Fury: Which meens that the thing on the toy that looks like a mask really isnt a mask,
InnerRayg: For goodness sake’s people, you know he can’t answer those questions
ScribeGT: Can’t say, ET, not a set designer
capnbonesiii: he can’t answer that
Electric Turahk: Oh, all right.
Dart a Larsen: I’m sorry. I didn’t know.
DSBrush: is there only six of those matoran or more?
GammaCyclone: So is Axonn in the BoM or Brutaka
Electric Turahk: But can you tell us the story reason?
AnthroHedgehog: Wha!? Axonn might not be released!? Explain, someone!
ScribeGT: Yes, Trunks, they are being released
capnbonesiii: six Matoran sets you mean?
InnerRayg: No one ever said that Anthro
AnthroHedgehog: Oh
capnbonesiii: or in the story?
Trunks1020110201: Thank you for the news
DSBrush: in the story
skyllo92: Is Brutaka, if in the story, female or male?
Electric Turahk: not released O.o
Electric Turahk: who said that?
ScribeGT: Brutaka is male
capnbonesiii: more
InnerRayg: No. one.
AnthroHedgehog: Someone asked a while back
skyllo92: ok thanks
Electric Turahk: Good, I was hoping he would be.
GammaCyclone: In ya face Rayg XD
jonogates has entered the room.
AnthroHedgehog: And I thought that a rumor had been circulating
Mecha Fury: Is there a female Piraka?
Trunks1020110201: Is Axxon Male or Female?
Electric Turahk: Now, is Brutaka a BoM or OoMN.
ScribeGT: No, Mecha
ScribeGT: Axonn is male too
Mecha Fury: And if so what color (s)
Mecha Fury: ok
ScribeGT: Not going to answer that one, ET
Trunks1020110201: Thank you
Electric Turahk: Okay.
Electric Turahk: I’m fine wit dat.
Dart a Larsen: Are there any female characters this year?
GammaCyclone: Are those the official colors?
ScottHetfield109: so I take it we’re drawing away from the female enemies
Turaga Dume1: Hey Greg, when you have a chance, I’ve got a question.
jonogates has left the room.
DkMgcnGrl has left the room.
Legoguy607: What is OOMN?
AnthroHedgehog: Is the “Order of Mata Nui” the official name, or is just one you came up with?
Trunks1020110201: Order of Mata Nui
Electric Turahk: Order of Mata Nui
ScribeGT: Yes, Dart — in fact, the female Matoran is a warrior
Electric Turahk: darnit…
capnbonesiii: From Time Trap
Electric Turahk: SAWEET!
jonogates has entered the room.
ScribeGT: Order is my name and the official name
Dart a Larsen: Nice.
AnthroHedgehog: kk
Electric Turahk: Oh.
GammaCyclone: Are those the official colors?
Electric Turahk: SAWEET! A REAL female warrier for once!
ScribeGT: Yes, Tiz?
AnthroHedgehog: Everything seems to have an ‘Order of blah’ nowadays
Electric Turahk: lol
InnerRayg: …There are only two
Dart a Larsen: What, Gali and Nokama aren’t warrior enough for you?
InnerRayg: Brotherhood and the Order
Electric Turahk: You have more than one, Tiz.
Electric Turahk: I’ve asked maybe 6.
darcy3352000: http://brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=148585 So… these are the official 2006 Matoran that look like Mini-Toa Metru? … What is the story behind them, then?
ScribeGT: Gali and Nokama are very tied to nature and essentially peace-loving
AnthroHedgehog: I’m talking in general of everything
jonogates has left the room.
GammaCyclone: I have asked like a bazillion
Electric Turahk: Yes, they are, Dart, but a REAL warrior just sounds so much cooler..
ScribeGT: I can’t discuss the set images, Darcy
darcy3352000: Damn.
AnthroHedgehog: Harry Potter, Sonic RPGs, etc.
darcy3352000: Nevermind then.
darcy3352000: >>;
Dart a Larsen: Ah.
AnthroHedgehog: Whoa, Darcy, watch your mouth
Electric Turahk: …
Electric Turahk: woah
Electric Turahk: Tiz
ScribeGT: And medieval texts, Anthro — Order was not invented by JK Rowling
Electric Turahk: major diss
AnthroHedgehog: I’m not saying it was
GammaCyclone: So can you tell us if there are any new colors and what they are?
InnerRayg: Not really
AnthroHedgehog: I’m just saying, they had an Order in that too
Turaga Dume1: Hey Greg, I’ve got a question.
capnbonesiii: ya, only so many “Orderish” words out there after all
Electric Turahk: …
Electric Turahk: He’s -40 years old!
Electric Turahk: He’s sooo young. 🙂
InnerRayg: you think that becoming an adult requires the ceasing of people having fun?
Electric Turahk: …
Electric Turahk: what he said
capnbonesiii: ‘course not
InnerRayg: Hah
Dart a Larsen: Guys, is that really an issue we need to discuss?
Electric Turahk: O.o
InnerRayg: hilarious
ScribeGT: Why does a 40 year old man write comic books for a living?
Electric Turahk: No, it’s not.
Turaga Dume1: 😛
Mecha Fury: PLEASE keep things civil,
DSBrush: Is there only 6 of those new matoran in the story?
Greenman241 has entered the room.
Electric Turahk: *sets ignore to Tiz*
Mecha Fury: there ARE little kids present
InnerRayg: I felt it necessary to educate him
Trunks1020110201: I would be Happy to write Comics at age 40!
capnbonesiii: any comments/questions on B3 anyone?
Electric Turahk: umm
Turaga Dume1: Hey Greg, I’ve got a question…
Electric Turahk: Nope, I haven’t seen it, so I have none, Bones.
ScottHetfield109: haven’t seen it yet… read the book, awesome.
ScribeGT: Putting Tiz on ignore, since he is evidently on some personal vendetta
Dart a Larsen: Only that I can’t wait to see it….
ScribeGT: Go ahead, Dume
Electro522: god tiz
skyllo92: how old are you Greg?
InnerRayg: Good idea Greg
ScribeGT: 40
Turaga Dume1: Are there going to be any chances for you to meet with fans anytime soon ,other than booksignings?
GammaCyclone: woah so young
Electric Turahk: so..
darcy3352000: Greg… do you have any clue as to what the name of the song used in the Bionicle Music Video is? Or was it made specifically for it?
Electric Turahk: Oh, yes, I did too…
AnthroHedgehog: I’m saying many different ‘things’ (be it Sonic RPGs, Harry Potter, Bionicle, etc.) have “Order of blahs” now.I find it amusing
ScribeGT: Well, Dume, there is some talk of my doing some signing in New Jersey in the winter
ScribeGT: And Comic-Con again
Dart a Larsen: Ooh! Where?
Turaga Dume1: Cool
Dart a Larsen: (In NJ)
ScribeGT: Other than that, nothing planned that I know of
GammaCyclone: Woah i live in NJ
Turaga Dume1: Thanks
ScribeGT: I think Paramus, someplace like that, at the LEGO store
ScottHetfield109: you should do a US Tour one of these months, Greg.
Dart a Larsen: Same. Sorta.
Electric Turahk: …
GammaCyclone: where eactly
Dart a Larsen: Awesome.
Turaga Dume1: I live in PA, and I lvoe those things
DSBrush: I have a question Greg
ScribeGT: Yes, DS?
Electric Turahk: Yeah, I wanna meat you, but I live nowhere near where all your “signings” occur.
ScottHetfield109: especially hitting the Tacoma areas in Washington ^^
capnbonesiii has left the room.
DSBrush: Will there be more than 6 of those new matoran in the story?
InnerRayg: Meet, not meat ET
darcy3352000: Greg? What’s the name of the song used in the Bionicle Music Video, or was it made specially for just that?
ScribeGT: In the story? Yes
DSBrush: cool
Trunks1020110201: Are you evercoming to TN Greg?
Mecha Fury: …
Electric Turahk: lol
ScribeGT: No idea, Darcy — all I know if it is that it was produced in Denmark
AnthroHedgehog: Oh, and who sings the Bio music video?
ScribeGT: Where I go is basically up to Scholastic
capnbonesiii has entered the room.
AnthroHedgehog: any chance of a CD
ScribeGT: So far they have not been looking to fly me anywhere 🙂
AnthroHedgehog: Yes, I over do it
Electric Turahk: …
Electric Turahk: aww
Trunks1020110201: Hmm
zakattack591 has entered the room.
ScribeGT: Doubtful, Anthro — generally you don’t get soundtracks for direct to videos
KrNbOy2893: ?
Electric Turahk: ET want you to visit Pittsburgh.
KrNbOy2893: back
darcy3352000: *hits his head on an anvil* Damnit, I’ve been looking to get that song on Empehthrii…
Trunks1020110201: It would be cool if you came to TN
RandyMoss000018 has entered the room.
Greenman241 has left the room.
Electric Turahk: *FLY TO PITTSBURGH, GREG!*
KrNbOy2893: so…
Electric Turahk: THEN DRIVE HALFWAY ACROSS THE COUNTRY TO SEE ME!
Electric Turahk: 😛
ScribeGT: Pittsburgh is cool town
Ember2006 has entered the room.
Electric Turahk: Yuppers.
AnthroHedgehog: You crossed teh line Tismo
ScribeGT: Got stuck there once for a week
Mecha Fury: In order to make things a bit more productive/easier on Greg (hopefully) can we wait for a question to be answered before asking another?
Electric Turahk: lol
Electro522: Greg have u written any other books besides bionicle?
darcy3352000: XD
RandyMoss000018: go steelers!
Electric Turahk: Why’d you get stuck there?
Electric Turahk: GO STEELERS!
Trunks1020110201: i used to live in Northumberland,PA
ScribeGT: Yes, Electro — three novels and 35 roleplaying books
Electric Turahk: GO PENGUINS WHO ARE LOSING BY ONE POINT!
InnerRayg: it’s not worth your time wasting breath on him
Trunks1020110201: Close to Harrisburg
capnbonesiii: that’s a lot
ScribeGT: I got stuck in the blizzard of ’96
Ember2006: um…hi
Mecha Fury: It was worht a try
DSBrush: Will any of the matoran from Mata Nui/Metru Nui be in the story this year?
Turaga Dume1: lol
KrNbOy2893: wow
KrNbOy2893: hmm
ScribeGT: Yes, DS
GammaCyclone: I love Penguins
AnthroHedgehog: XD
KrNbOy2893: i need to think of a question
zakattack591 has left the room.
Electric Turahk: ouch, that was a bad blizzard.. or so I heard, I was only 4
KrNbOy2893: mmmm…. carmel apple…
ScottHetfield109: so wait, do the Matoran and Turaga stay on Metru Nui and the Toa Nuva go to this Island of Doom?
KrNbOy2893: caramel*
ScribeGT: Yes, Scott
ScottHetfield109: trying to finally settle it straight
KrNbOy2893: cool
capnbonesiii: Well, guess I’ve got a B3 question
ScottHetfield109: awesome
InnerRayg: Takanuva stays on Metru-Nui too Swert 😛
capnbonesiii: what was your impression, Greg?
capnbonesiii: of B3?
Electric Turahk: I haven’t seen B3, so I have no questions.
ScottHetfield109: oh figures 😛
Electric Turahk: I really want to see it though.
ScribeGT: Of B3? I actually enjoyed it a lot — my wife did too, and she knows very little about BIONICLE
GammaCyclone: Me too
capnbonesiii: cool
capnbonesiii: good sign
Electric Turahk: hmm
ScribeGT: Loved the music
Electric Turahk: very god
Trunks1020110201: My mom liked it
InnerRayg: Only one place in my town carries B3, and they rented it out. So needless to say I’ve not seen it
KrNbOy2893: do you know greg if lego is goin to open a lego store in colorado sometime in the future????????/
Electric Turahk: good*
capnbonesiii: LD
InnerRayg: I’m very sad about it
capnbonesiii: *:D
ScribeGT: No idea, Kr, not my dept.
DSBrush: My sister liked it alot I thought is was well done like allwyas
Electric Turahk: same here, Rayg.
KrNbOy2893: oh
skyllo92: Can you give us another exclusive about the new “Island of Doom” or am I crossing over the line with this question?
Trunks1020110201: But Poor Roodaka
darcy3352000: Oh oh oh! Will there be any romance in the 2006 story by any chance? Such as the one relationship between Maku and Huki earlier in the storyline?
capnbonesiii: I mean… 🙂
capnbonesiii: lol
AnthroHedgehog: Will Lego be doing anything to bring back some of the fans? I am slowly losing interest in bionicle, and I really want to like it again with the same enthusiasm I had in 2002
Trunks1020110201: Will roodaka be back or revived in the Future greg?
Mark of MoD: Greg, were you surprised when the Visorak went over the side and there was no ledge?
ScribeGT: Not much time for romance when the universe is about to end 🙂
Turaga Dume1: I was
Turaga Dume1: lol
Electric Turahk: lol
Dart a Larsen: I’m kind of nervous about asking this, but will any of the Matoran from Mata/Metru Nui we know not live to see the end of the year?
Electric Turahk: sweet
AnthroHedgehog: o.O
KrNbOy2893: oh
AnthroHedgehog: End of the universe?
KrNbOy2893: true
GammaCyclone: How d you think the playsets next year will sell?
Electro522: greg can u give us your opinion of the unknown group of canisters?
AnthroHedgehog: Call in the Teen Titans
KrNbOy2893: wait
ScribeGT: Okay, hang on, let me answer a few —
KrNbOy2893: end of the universe?
GammaCyclone: K
AnthroHedgehog: I still want to see a DC universe cross over
darcy3352000: I don’t think Maku and Huki shared that opinion. 😛
AnthroHedgehog: Even have it not be canon in the Bionicle universe
KrNbOy2893: how do the canisters look like and their functions or something like thattt
ScribeGT: Anthro, hopefully, but the feeling is that the old fans are a hardcore base, and that we have to create something that will not exclude new fans — but I think a lot of what we have planned hearkens back to the good things of 2001
Electric Turahk: ..
ScribeGT: Mark, no, not really
Trunks1020110201: Will roodaka be Rivived or in the BOM In the future?
Electric Turahk: hmm
InnerRayg: Roodaka was saved by Makuta, remember?
ScribeGT: Gamma, not sure, have only seen one
Trunks1020110201: Ah
Trunks1020110201: Thats good
Electric Turahk: He was?
InnerRayg: She
Turaga Dume1: Abosrbed by Makuta
Electric Turahk: lol
Electric Turahk: she*
InnerRayg: No.
ScribeGT: Not absorbed
Trunks1020110201: She must come back!
Turaga Dume1: …
Electric Turahk: MOVIE SPOILERS! THEY BURN USS!
Turaga Dume1: Oh?
Electro522: I don’t like roodaka
Dart a Larsen: Yes. ; ;
Electro522: she’s too mean
Electro522: xD
Trunks1020110201: *Huggles roodaka*
AnthroHedgehog: Oh, and Greg, many Sonic fans recently opened their new issue of Sonic the Comic to find a Bionicle promo…and many were displeased, and found it”bothersome” “babyish”, and “boring”
capnbonesiii: some BZPers were saying B3 has the first real “swordfight”… would that be accurate in your opinion, Greg?
Turaga Dume1: It looked like that in B3
Electro522: *kicks roodaka*
AnthroHedgehog: Do you have any comments on that, greg?
Electric Turahk: …
Electro522: there was a swordfight in B3? o_o
InnerRayg: Anthro, I think that’s hilarious. A Sonic fan calling Bionicle babyish? Pure gold
Electric Turahk: lol
Trunks1020110201: =P
ScottHetfield109: very much so, Rayg
Dart a Larsen: I like Sonic. -_-
ScribeGT: Well, that is their problem, Anthro – if they don’t like BIONICLE, they are under no obligation to buy it. I am sure there are BIONICLE fans who would say that of Sonic
AnthroHedgehog: As much as I love Sonic, I was a bit ashamed of what they thought of it
GammaCyclone: Any new contests coming up?
Trunks1020110201: I am definatly Saving this chat
AnthroHedgehog: I love Sonic the Hedgehog
ScribeGT: Not for BIONICLE just now, no
capnbonesiii has left the room.
GammaCyclone: man -.-
InnerRayg: I’ve nothing against Sonic, but it isn’t exactly a hugely mature series
AnthroHedgehog: So, seeing a Bionicle promo was nice to me
InnerRayg: They are cutesy animals after all
Electro522: Greg, what is your opinion of the canister sets that no one knows yet?
ScribeGT: Just finished one, and did two last year, so taking a little break
AnthroHedgehog: IMHO, the comic series is way maturer than the games
Dart a Larsen: Well, that’s what makes it appealing to me. : P
KrNbOy2893: so… whats the storyline goin to look like for the Island of Doom
Electric Turahk: Greg…
ScribeGT: Well, that is true, Anthro, but they are aimed at a different audience
AnthroHedgehog: good point
Electric Turahk: Can you shed any light on the second set of canister sets?
Mecha Fury: Will The Piraka be the only cannister sets?
ScribeGT: No, ET, I cannot
toatakua202 has entered the room.
darcy3352000: *looks at the Makuta currently huggling Takanuva on his shelf* Umm… Anyways… Will Takanuva ever change back to Takua later on in the story… say 2007-2012?
ScribeGT: No, Mecha
Electric Turahk: Okay.
InnerRayg: Darcy, that’s impossible
AnthroHedgehog: darcy:I wish
ScribeGT: No, Darcy, you can’t go from being a Toa to a Matoran
toatakua202: is greg here
AnthroHedgehog: I loved Takua
AnthroHedgehog: And hate Takanuva
Electric Turahk: w/e
Electric Turahk: too bad
InnerRayg: They’re the same person
toatakua202: me too
darcy3352000: *shrugs* I know that, but still… Old Takua was so… snuggable. x3
AnthroHedgehog: just because he took away my Takua XD
ScribeGT: How can you hate him, he has hardly been in the story?
KrNbOy2893: what the
capnbonesiii has entered the room.
AnthroHedgehog: Because he took away Takua XD
Dart a Larsen: Will any of the Matoran we know from Mata/Metru Nui not live to see the end of the year?
Electric Turahk: some BZPers were saying B3 has the first real “swordfight”… would that be accurate in your opinion, Greg?
KrNbOy2893: snuggable?????
ScribeGT: Can’t answer that, Dart
Mark of MoD: Greg, do you have any general info on cross-promotions for 2006? Will we see more/fewer of them?
Dart a Larsen: Okay, thanks anyway.
ScribeGT: It may be, ET, but I have not seen the end yet
Electro522: will there be a death in 2006?
AnthroHedgehog: I tried so hard to find a loophole in the Transformation to Takanuva XD
KrNbOy2893: hmm
Darnzerf has entered the room.
toatakua202: is greg here
AnthroHedgehog: YES
Turaga Dume1: Yes
Darnzerf: Wow…
ScribeGT: Nothing I can discuss, Mark
AnthroHedgehog: This chat went pretty fast
AnthroHedgehog: faster than the Jake McKee chat
ScribeGT: A death of anyone, Electro?
GammaCyclone: woah yeah
KrNbOy2893: yes
Electro522: yes, does anyone die?
Electric Turahk: Yeah, will there be a death?
KrNbOy2893: will they be a death?
Dart a Larsen: (How long is this chat going till, btw?)
Mark of MoD: Greg has agreed to stay on for a full hour. He arrived just a little late.
ScribeGT: Yup, whole bunch of IOD Matoran do
Mecha Fury: I think
Dart a Larsen: Kay.
Turaga Dume1: Whee!
Darnzerf: Wow…so many people///
InnerRayg: That’s terrible
toatakua202: whats his screen name
AnthroHedgehog: o.o
Electro522: that many?
AnthroHedgehog: DEAD MATORAN!?
darcy3352000: Greg, why did the Kanohis of Diminishment and Quick Travel never make it later on to become Great Masks for the original toa… or masks for the Toa Metru?
KrNbOy2893: wow
Electro522: wow, this year will be awesome
InnerRayg: Toatakua, his name is ScribeGT
AnthroHedgehog: *cheers*
Electric Turahk: awesome
ScribeGT: Simple, Darcy, we didn’t invent them until this year
Electric Turahk: dead IoD Matoran
Electric Turahk: sweet
KrNbOy2893: dead matoran i think that’s a first… besides jaller
darcy3352000: >.>
darcy3352000: Still.
toatakua202: greg?
Electro522: god, the whole island must blow up x_x
Electric Turahk: ..
GammaCyclone: he didn’t die really
GammaCyclone: XD
ScribeGT: Yes, Takua?
KrNbOy2893: iknow
Electric Turahk: ok…
AnthroHedgehog: Yeah, since they “revived him”

toatakua202: brb
AnthroHedgehog: I’m all for Makuta possesing Jaller
darcy3352000: I liked Jala more. D=
AnthroHedgehog: It would make for an awesome movie scene
Electric Turahk: Mark, this question is for you. Will you be saving all of this like you did the last one so we can read it instead of going through all this rapid talk?
toatakua202: im back
Electro522: I think Jaller should have been the toa of light
Mark of MoD: Yes.
KrNbOy2893: so pretty much the island is chaos right greg?
capnbonesiii: thanks, Mark
InnerRayg: Might I suggest editing some of it
AnthroHedgehog: Yes
Electric Turahk: Okay, thanks.
ScribeGT: The island is not a happy plalce
Mark of MoD: Yes.
Turaga Dume1: lol, yes
InnerRayg: AKA removing the unpleasant members
ScribeGT: *place
Electric Turahk: Some of us can’t keep up..
AnthroHedgehog: Leave only the questions and answers
KrNbOy2893: yeah
Dart a Larsen: A lot of it. XP
toatakua202: i still think takua is better
ScooterAceX: Did I miss the chat?
AnthroHedgehog: It will make it easier on the eyes

GammaCyclone: Well the island of DOOM
KrNbOy2893: wow
capnbonesiii: nickname
ScribeGT: Island of Doom is the book name, not the island’s name
skyllo92: Greg, I don’t think you sw my question but if you can find the patience in me, can you give an exclusive about the Island of Doom itself?
GammaCyclone: so i must be bad
Darnzerf: What really happened to Roodaka?

Darnzerf: They don’t -have- to be Toa
KrNbOy2893: *shivers*
ScribeGT: Can’t answer it, Anthro
darcy3352000: [x3]
capnbonesiii has left the room.
KrNbOy2893: hey matoro
ScooterAceX: (Greg is being attacked by questions :o)
Electric Turahk: That little summary of BL 3 was not official at all.
Matoro Nuju: hi
toatakua202: December is forever away
Electric Turahk: so who knows if there will be Toa
ScribeGT: No it was placeholder
KrNbOy2893: where are the matoran greg?
ScribeGT: Which Matoran, Kr?
KrNbOy2893: where are they going to be
InnerRayg: It’s only three or so months Takua
KrNbOy2893: like
Dart a Larsen: Not that long, really.
GammaCyclone: How big is it (Island of Doom)?
capnbonesiii has entered the room.
toatakua202: i heard they are evil
Darnzerf: >>
Electric Turahk: Oh, well, placeholder doesn’t mean all true info, so I was partially right.
Electric Turahk: >.
Electro522: is humor going to pretty much, disappear from bionicle in 2006 then?
ScribeGT: I don’t have official measurements yet, Darcy
Electric Turahk: >.AnthroHedgehog: Darnzerf:do you know Shade Vortex?
skyllo92: Another question, what is your favorite set that has been released?
Darnzerf: Yes
ScribeGT: No, I hope not, Electro
Darnzerf: He is my friend
AnthroHedgehog: Oh
KrNbOy2893: just the matoran like matoro jaller, etc…. where will they be?/
toatakua202: greg are they evil
Darnzerf: I made his sprites…>>
Electric Turahk: >.AnthroHedgehog: Tell him I said hi(he’ll know me as TK)
ScribeGT: My favorite that is released is the Exo-Toa
Electro522: I hope not too, the green were always the funny
Darnzerf: ok…
Matoro Nuju: Do you know whats gonna become of Mata-nui?
ScribeGT: Is who evil, Takua?
Electric Turahk: Exo-Toa is among my favorites.
darcy3352000: Greg, I’ve noticed that in Bionicle 1… when they were looking at Metru Nui, it was across some sort of lake or ocean, leading one to believe that Mata was seperate from Metru… Why is this?
Electro522: exo-toa rocked
AnthroHedgehog: Is makuta really dead?
Electric Turahk: …
GammaCyclone: I like Exo-Toa to
toatakua202: i heard alot about it on wikipidea.com
InnerRayg: Darcy, let me answer that one
ScooterAceX: Exo Toa are cool
Electro522: it was kinda hard to put the toa in it though
Darnzerf: I believe he is reffering to the DoomToran, Greg
DSBrush: What is the most fun thing about working on Bionicle?
ScooterAceX: 🙂
Electric Turahk: TT
Electric Turahk: don’t trust wikipedia at all
capnbonesiii: they were looking across the silver sea, darcy
InnerRayg: You know that Metru-Nui is under Mata-Nui, I’ll asume
KrNbOy2893: ooo does anything happen to taka nuva on the island greg? Like something really bad?
capnbonesiii: long story
darcy3352000: Yess.
InnerRayg: it lies in an underground sea of sorts
capnbonesiii: lol
Electric Turahk: some things are true, but it has a lot of false information
InnerRayg: the silver sea, as Bonesii said
Dart a Larsen: And Metru Nui is smaller than Mata Nui, right?
toatakua202: what do the Doomtoran look like
AnthroHedgehog: Yeah, Wikipedia doesn’t always have great info, as it is user posted
ScribeGT: Takanuva doesn’t go to the new island
InnerRayg: Yes
KrNbOy2893: i know
ScribeGT: Yes, it is, Dart
darcy3352000: ………
InnerRayg: Much smaller
GammaCyclone: How big is it (Island of Doom)
darcy3352000: Meh.
ScribeGT: As I said, Gamma, have not got official measurements yet
KrNbOy2893: i’m taking about where the island he srays
KrNbOy2893: stays*
darcy3352000: I miss my Exo-Toa… it broke. 🙁
Electric Turahk: ….
AnthroHedgehog: how do the Toa Nuva actually *get* to the IoD?
Turaga Dume1: Boats
toatakua202: do the toa nuva ever find turaga dume
Turaga Dume1: Right?
Electric Turahk: Mine is insed my Karetao MOC and Werewolf.
ScribeGT: Takanuva stays on Metru Nui, and the story is not focused on Metru Nui next year
Electric Turahk: *my Exo-Toa*
ScottHetfield109: now, wait… are the preliminary images of the island the official ones?
KrNbOy2893: ok
Electric Turahk: gee, never knew that…
InnerRayg: Turaga Dume was waiting for them on Metru-Nui
ScribeGT: Anthro, can’t answer that one
InnerRayg: with the Rahaga
ScribeGT: Yes, Scott
Electro522: will the loose ends in metru-nui get tied up?
darcy3352000: The pieces of my Exo are scattered… my instructions lost.
ScribeGT: Such as what, Electro?
darcy3352000: D:
Electro522: like rahaga, turaga, vahki possibly
toatakua202: what does metrunui look like when they return
AnthroHedgehog: So are there actually 7 Turaga on Metru Nui at the time of BL#1?
Turaga Dume1: Cleaner
ScottHetfield109: check Brichself, darcy… they might have them
Electro522: will there be like two leaders per village then?
DSBrush: Will Hahli go to IOD since she is the new chonicler or no?
ScribeGT: Well, Rahaga and Dume are in book 10
Dart a Larsen: Out of curiosity, can you tell us when will the story return to Metru-Nui?
KrNbOy2893: ok
Electric Turahk: The Rahaga and Turaga Dume stayed behind to do whatever they could to clean stuff up, correct?
Darnzerf: BRB….>InnerRayg: Yes ET
ScribeGT: No plans to bring it back to Metru Nui for at least three years
Electro522: correct
Dart a Larsen: Okay.
Electric Turahk: Okay
.toatakua202: are there any visorak there
capnbonesiii: no
ScooterAceX: (Ah! So much info. Cross Wired Freak is confused)
Electric Turahk: lol
capnbonesiii: right?
Electric Turahk: Hi, CWF.
KrNbOy2893: wait what happens to Dume? Will he be awakened or something?
InnerRayg: Well, they are supposed to play some small part Bones
Matoro Nuju: the island of doom….is that a different island?
ScribeGT: He gets awakened this year
InnerRayg: from what I hear anyway
KrNbOy2893: sweet
darcy3352000: You know what? The pick-a-brick wall should be much larger, so there’s one tub for each bionicle piece ever made. In theory, this would allow one to rebuild many of the discontinued sets, without buying the sets themselves.
AnthroHedgehog: Anyone know what happened to the Rahaga at the end of ’05?
ScribeGT: It’s a new island
Electro522: So I’m guessing Dume will rule the whole metru-nui, while the turaga rule each metru, while the rahaga either rule by their side or wonder?
capnbonesiii: online comics are sposedta tell Dume’s story this year
Matoro Nuju: Ah
DkMgcnGrl has entered the room.
InnerRayg: Yes Anthro
ScooterAceX: (Hi ET)
Electro522: they stayed on metru nui anthro
InnerRayg: they stayed on Metru-Nui to help clean it up
ScottHetfield109: so now, a bit more of a complex question… do the Matoran and Turaga have a role in awakening Mata Nui by staying on Metru Nui, or are they there to be protected from the IoD?
AnthroHedgehog: Yes!
AnthroHedgehog: That means NO POINTLESS CLEAN-UP STORIES!
toatakua202: so what happend to the rahgah
AnthroHedgehog: They stayed on Metru Nui
AnthroHedgehog: with Dume
AnthroHedgehog: to clean up
Electric Turahk: GOD!
ScribeGT: They do have a role, Scott — repopulating Metru Nui is essential to awakening Mata Nui
AnthroHedgehog: for everyone else
Electric Turahk: How many times must we say it, TT?
toatakua202: doing what
KrNbOy2893: thought so
Electric Turahk: CLEANING UP!
Darnzerf: Cleaning up
InnerRayg: Toatakua, did you not see what I just posted?
ScottHetfield109: alright
Turaga Dume1: Greg, can you confirm this? You asked for my input awhile ago on this: The Parika eliminate a horde of Visorak.
InnerRayg: They stayed on Metru-Nui to help clean it up
Turaga Dume1: Is that ture?
ScribeGT: Not a horde, no
Turaga Dume1: *true
Turaga Dume1: Okay
Turaga Dume1: A few?
Electro522: can u compare the power of a piraka to something?
capnbonesiii: when did the Turaga learn that, Greg? About repopulating Metru Nui?
Mecha Fury: Will Turaga Dume’s Mask of regeneration be put to use to help fix the island?
Electric Turahk: …
AnthroHedgehog: OK, FOR THE LAST TIME. DUME. AND. THE.RAHAGA.STAYED.ON.METRU NUI.TO.CLEAN.IT.UP.
Electric Turahk: Ooh, good idea, Mecha.
ScooterAceX: That would be cool
Electro522: yes we know that anthro
AnthroHedgehog: now no more confirming that
ScribeGT: Well, cap, they left and things went bad — makes sense going back would make things better
ScottHetfield109: probably a tablet found in Metru Nui
Electric Turahk: that would make snes.
DSBrush: Will Hahli go to IOD since she is new chronicler or no since it is to dangerous?
capnbonesiii: ah
KrNbOy2893: are we going to see some of the old bad guys in this year’s story line?
Electro522: hali won’t go
ScribeGT: Not with the Toa Nuva, no
DSBrush: oh ok
Mecha Fury: Oye
ScribeGT: No plans for that, Kr, we have to focus on the new sets
AnthroHedgehog: but she is going then?
KrNbOy2893: ok
tai12341234 has entered the room.
AnthroHedgehog: So she is going, but not with the Nuva??
ScribeGT: Wait and see
ScottHetfield109: isn’t she chroniclizing Takanuva’s destiny?
AnthroHedgehog: oooh…interesting
toatakua202: where is the island of doom located
Matoro Nuju: is she like gonna sneek there or something?
AnthroHedgehog: Hahli the Renegade:A loose canon Chronicler who plays by her own rules
ScribeGT: South of Mata Nui
capnbonesiii has left the room.
Electro522: I curious about those manas I heard about, the manas that were in makuta’s were just strays I heard xD
Electric Turahk: OO!
KrNbOy2893: south of mata
AnthroHedgehog: So it is above land!@
KrNbOy2893: hmmm
Electric Turahk: SO IT IS ABOVE GROUND?
ScribeGT: Yes
Electric Turahk: *stupid caps lock
AnthroHedgehog: YES!
Turaga Dume1: Cool!
Electric Turahk: YES@
ScooterAceX: Yay
AnthroHedgehog: RETURN TO ABOVE GROUND WOOT
Electro522: good!
Darnzerf: …
ScooterAceX: :
Electric Turahk: YES!*
toatakua202: what will happen to makuta
Electric Turahk: …
capnbonesiii has entered the room.
toatakua202: did he die for good
ScottHetfield109: duh
darcy3352000: *slashes EM with Makuta’s double-scythe staff.*
Electric Turahk: …
darcy3352000: .-.
InnerRayg: Whoever it is, they are a waste of intelligence
ScribeGT: Well, as far as anyone knows, he is dead
AnthroHedgehog: Do you mean sense?
DkMgcnGrl has left the room.
DkMgcnGrl has entered the room.
Electric Turahk: …
KrNbOy2893: nothing is goin to trasform or something is there ex: toa into toa nuva?
Electric Turahk: …
Electric Turahk: errr
Electric Turahk: Kr…
ScribeGT: No Toa transformations next year, no
Turaga Dume1: Yays
ScooterAceX: Yes!
KrNbOy2893: ok
Darnzerf: Sweet
GammaCyclone: Ye
ScribeGT: We are not changing the Nuva again
Turaga Dume1: Good idea
Turaga Dume1: 😛
darcy3352000: Damn.
GammaCyclone: Good to much change
Electric Turahk: KEY WORD: NUVA
Matoro Nuju: what?
Dart a Larsen: When you say that we won’t be returning to Metru Nui for at least three years, does that mean we won’t be hearing about the Matoran and Turaga living there for three years as well, and instead just be focusing on the Nuva on the IoD
Electric Turahk: are not to be changed
Mark of MoD: Greg, are the TOA NUVA being re-released as sets?
Electric Turahk: WE COULD STILL GET NEW TOA
InnerRayg: No Mark
ScribeGT: No it means the story will not be focused on there, Dart
Turaga Dume1: No, Mark
Darnzerf: No
capnbonesiii: not next year
darcy3352000: Shoulda changed the Nuva to something more flexible, with more poseability. x3
ScribeGT: No, Mark, no plans for that
Electro522: *agrees the darcy*
InnerRayg: No Darcy, not now, not ever >Turaga Dume1: See I was right, lol
ScooterAceX: But I thought we were going back to the Nuva story?
Dart a Larsen: Okee.
InnerRayg: Yes
ScottHetfield109: we are, Scooter
Electric Turahk: We are.
toatakua202: hey greg why did you not do a behind the scenes for B3
Darnzerf: We are
ScooterAceX: Yet there is no nuva docus
DSBrush: So the Toa Nuva will go alone to IOD no one else?
capnbonesiii: darcy, then the problem is you haveta have a story reason, which means more transformations.
Electric Turahk: But the sets will not be rereleased.
ScooterAceX: *foucus
ScottHetfield109: they’re going to the Island of DOOOOMMM!!!!
ScribeGT: We are going back to the era of the Toa Nuva .. and they play a big role in the books written so far
Electric Turahk: Oh!
InnerRayg: No, we don’t need the sets to focus on the characters
ScottHetfield109: (Lego should introduce it like that)
ScooterAceX: But not set wise?
darcy3352000: I get the feeling that the Matoran will be more flexible than the Nuva.
InnerRayg: besides everyone already has them. They wouldn’t make money selling them
darcy3352000: x.x
skyllo92: You’ve confermed that there are hero sets in 06, true?
Electric Turahk: What more can you say about Karzahni (the original and place)
Matoro Nuju: brb people
ScribeGT: No, I have not
ScooterAceX: (I don’t have them, Rayg :o)
toatakua202: are they making new sets for the turaga
InnerRayg: Well then get them
Turaga Dume1: But you id say heroes sell better than villains
InnerRayg: they’re not exactly rare
Darnzerf: No,
ScribeGT: That he will prominently featured in Book 2, ET
KrNbOy2893: anything really bad happen to the toa while on the island?
Electric Turahk: Okay…
Turaga Dume1: So it makes sense to sell heroes
Electro522: will there be a split release next year?
Matoro Nuju: are there like gonna be knew toa..?
InnerRayg: There will be heroes
ScribeGT: No split release, no
Electric Turahk: What about what happens between him and Jaller?
Mark of MoD: Folks! Five minutes, and then we have to let Greg go.
InnerRayg: we just don’t know who they are yet
capnbonesiii: k
Electric Turahk: k
Dart a Larsen: Alrighty.
DSBrush: k
ScooterAceX: Ok
KrNbOy2893: ah

skyllo92: ok
Electro522: good, I have to go to the bathroom lol
darcy3352000: *Ace Ventura*
ScottHetfield109: so wait, Piraka are the only canister sets, right?
ScooterAceX: (Wishes he had come earlier)
Turaga Dume1: No
InnerRayg: No Swert
AnthroHedgehog: any promotional masks in ’06?
capnbonesiii: Any general comments about ’06, Greg?
Electric Turahk: Anything about Jaller and Karzahni you can spread more light on?
Matoro Nuju: Boo
ScribeGT: Didn’t say that either
Electric Turahk: or is what you told us all that happens?
ScribeGT: Do not know, Anthro — that sort of stuff gets decided late
DSBrush: What is the most fun thing about working on Bionicle?
toatakua202: greg what do the doomatoran look like
KrNbOy2893: are there any boxed sets like the rahaga? (not big sets)
ScribeGT: I don’t want to give story away, ET
InnerRayg: Toatakua, go find some pictures
Electric Turahk: Okay.
darcy3352000: That you get to be creative, DUH.,
InnerRayg: they’re not that hard to scrounge up
darcy3352000: x3
ScottHetfield109: XD doomatoran? who coined that name?
toatakua202: damn
ScribeGT: Yes, the new Matoran are $4.99 sets
InnerRayg: It’s old
AnthroHedgehog: I did!(j/k)
Electric Turahk: duh
Matoro Nuju: ET phone home
KrNbOy2893: ok
toatakua202: kool
Darnzerf: how does Makuta get out?
Electric Turahk: shut up she-foo’!
Dart a Larsen: Will the new Matoran be released first?
ScribeGT: Who says he does, Darn?
AnthroHedgehog: magic, obviously
darcy3352000: The Matoran over here are 3.99$
ScribeGT: Yes, Dart
AnthroHedgehog: Everyone knows Makuta is in leagues with Snape and Voldemort
Darnzerf: >>

ScottHetfield109: you sure you didn’t just read my epic, Anthro?
Electric Turahk: …
ScribeGT: The two $19.99 sets are out in March in Europe, summer in US
AnthroHedgehog: XD
Electric Turahk: Okay.
AnthroHedgehog: I have a twisted mind
ScooterAceX: March is good
KrNbOy2893: oh
Matoro Nuju: very good
Turaga Dume1: Cool
KrNbOy2893: summer is good..
