    Final Batch of Answers
    Hot Bionicle NewsSaturday, December 7th, 2002 at 10:08pm by Rich, BZPower Administrator

    Here's the final batch of answers. The Question topic will be reopened on Monday.

    1) Will the bahrag twins come back?

     Cahdok and Gahdok will definitely appear in the comic again next year, but I won't say how big a role they will have.

     

    2) Are the Bohrok Kal as powerful as the Manas?

    I would say the Bohrok-Kal are more powerful than the Manas, for one major reason: the Manas had to be close to you to fight you, but the Bohrok-Kal can do things from long-range and you won't even get the chance to get close to them.

    3) Will the Tohunga play a part in deafeating the Kal?

    No, not really.

    4) Will the Toa have to travel to distant lands and encounters different civilizations in the process? (like facing knights on another continent)

    No.

    5) Are the Bahrag going to fuse into the spider in the story?

    Only if they escape.

    6) Will there be any type of "before time" story of the krana and every other creature? (krana could of been an intelligent race but were turned into small masks and lost there free will because of the bahrag)

    That's possible, but I don't think it will happen in the immediate
    future.

    7) As we all know, pohatu (in either nuva or original form) does not fit in the exo. Will lego create a new set or new instructions on how to build an exo for pohatu?

    Not that I know of.

    8) What does the MoL look like exactly?

    I have only seen the one pictured in the movie trailer, and
    prototype product - I haven't seen the finished mask yet. 

    9) What color is graalok and what masks does he wear (if any)?

    I don't know, I have only seen animatics of him. I do know there
    will not be a graalok product, and I don't think he wears any mask, as he is
    not controlled by Makuta.

    10) Is there some hope to get special promotions( Vahi, Gold Haus) and special Bio sets( Master Builder Set, Powerpack) cause I live in Czech republic, where we have no promotions.

     I really have no idea. Not my area of expertise.

    11) Why are the Toa having trouble overcoming their differences? Didn't they already do that?

    Yes and no. They have been forced to work together, because they weren't powerful enough individually to stop the Bahrag, or Makuta, etc. But some, like Kopaka, really don't like working in a team. And after months of constantly being together, they are starting to get on each others' nerves. Add to that suddenly they have this new power and think they don't need each other anymore, and it makes sense they would split up. (After all, you probably have some good friends, but do you want to be around them ALL the time?)

    12) Why are the comics so short?(Not trying to be offending!)

    No offense taken :-) I think it's probably a matter of cost - we want to keep sending the comics out free to our Club members, and it is very expensive to get the art done and to print them. I would love to have more pages, but I understand that it would probably get way expensive to do that.

    13)Will there be anymore Toa Nuva?

    Possibly. But that is tied into movie story, so really can't answer
    it.

    14) Just one question: what is the kanohi name of the mask of light?
    i.e. shielding is hau, levitation is miru, speed is kakama, light is what?

    Hmmmm... I will have to check on that for you. We do have a name for
    it, but I am not sure if it has been approved yet by everyone who has to do
    so.

    15) In the 2003 storyline, should we be expecting to see more emphisis on internal conflict between the Toa Nua, or more emphisis on whatever the Bohrok Kal are going to do?
    Well, obviously the struggle with the Bohrok-Kal is the main focus of the early part of the year - but the differences between the Toa Nuva are a subplot that will continue into the movie.

    16) About the matoran packs. Do you know if they are random, or are there set matoran, like one of each village?
    Not entirely sure, but my guess would be there would be one from
    each village. As soon as I have more info, I will let you know.


    17) Does mata nui control the protodermis?
    No. Mata Nui is asleep.

    18) We know graalok is a bear but can you tell us what Takanuva and that other one are? 
    What other one? And no, I can't discuss Takanuva, that's movie
    story.

    19) Will the toa nuva evolve into different toa of somesort.
    No plans for that to happen, no.

    20) Are you going to have anymore cool promotions with matorans like a mcdonalds again?
    We have a couple of really cool promotions planned for next year. No
    idea whether McDonald's will involved, though.

    21) What do silver masks, the ones sold in the krana packs, do?
    Good question. I'll have to check.

    22) you said that the kal have always been there, then where are they?
    Same place the Bohrok were.. underground, in a nest of their own.

    23) what is the nuva cube? did the Bahrag get stuck in it or is it a map to the bahrag?
    It's more like a lock on the Bahrag's prison.

    24) How come there will only be 6 Kal not tons, did the bahrag create the bohrok and exo and/or the kal, if they did create the KAL why not make a lot of them?
    Because six Kal are more than powerful enough to get the job done. 12 Kal could probably overthrow the Bahrag and take over the swarms themselves, if they wanted to.

    25) The cover of comic 9 "Divided we fall" it shows Tahu Nuva and Kopaka Nuva staring at each other in a menacing way. We've known for a while that Kopaka and Tahu don't like each other so it makes sense that they have conflicts, but "Divided we fall" suggests that the Toa will take sides (probably according to the Toa Nuva Kaita). I can sort of see Pohatu and Onua sideing with Tahu, after all, it would be pretty easy to resent Kopaka since he is very cold to everyone, but I can't Gali or Lewa really sideing with Kopaka. They just don't seem the type. Should we expect all the Toa qualeing or should we expect just Tahu and Kopaka?

    Actually, "Divided We Fall" refers to two things: the fact that the team split up, and the fact that because they were not together and sharing info, the Bohrok-Kal were able to accomplish a lot before the Toa Nuva got organized enough to challenge them.
