User blog comment:Echo 1/Some Official Bionicle News That'll Affect Fanfiction/@comment-15292504-20150205162550

There's a simple way to look at this. It's possible that there were still a limited number of Matora, because consider what they're made of. These are Biomechanical beings. Even if they could manaufacture the metals, the great beings would have to supply the muscle fibers and ligaments, still making it limited. Besides, it's still canon that most matoran were brought in at the beginning of the matoran universe. So, It's presumable that even if Turaga did build matoran, they didn't at all times.

This may also explain the gender disparity in the bionicle universe...

Also, this is a good thing! It means you can canonically explain unseen elements, made up ones. SImply have a random machine unearthed by turaga. Done.

Also, this means Farshtey can explain other wierd things about the Mataverse... Like the wierd ass geography...
