also nuju was growing a new knowledge tower. plus whenua was mining for lightstones. the others i have no excuse for. but those 3 were helping. not great heroics but helping. edit: i forgot onewa carving was actually important too as carvers were valued.
What I find most interesting about this era of Toa is that most of their equipment are largey meant to be tools rather than weapons; Whenua's shovels allow him to plow through earth; Nokama's axes allow her to ski off the water; Nuju's ice pick allows him to cling to Ice; Onewa's pickaxe allow him to scale stone; and Matau's blades help him glide through the air. The only one that is generally combat focused is Vakama's disc launcher, but I think it could also be used in a non-combative manner like destorying terrain and solving puzzles.
vakama used his launcher as a tool and not a weapon many times, as someone who knew the disk's powers well, he knew how to use them for many situations also the launcher actually has a second function as a jetpack, though he rarely uses it (i think it had limited fuel? idk for sure though) it's actually really cool how they did that, tools mean to help the toa use their elements better, as well as weapons
Because Metru nui was the city of lost technology. And that's whu their tools are closer to Modern tools, unlike Primitive Toa Mata.(despite they get metal weapon from protodermis, and gets gun from arthaka when they travel to karda nui)
The creativity and resources that went into creating Metru Nui are unbelievable. I don’t think Bionicle went downhill after 2004, but its worldbuilding would never again reach these heights.
Interesting locations were never explored. Voya Nui is supposed to be the heart of the Mata Nui robot yet it seems so desolated, Mahri Nui was never even described.
@@neitherlink6612 Karda Nui was the Heart. And Mahri Nui got explained a bit in "Adventures #6 City of the Lost" as a village that wasn't supposed to exist, living on borrowed time/air and in a truly terrible place adjacent to the Black Water and the Pit. Would've been nice to learn more about its structures and demographics and whatnot, but it didn't matter much compared to the Barraki, the Mask, and Makuta's Plan.
The metru toa are some of my favorite designs. Not only did they add more articulation to the figures, they made them all interesting. I also love the look of Metru nui. If I had to rank the toa teams. Metru would have to be the first, tied with the Toa Mata. (That doesn't mean the toa Nuva or inika are bad. Infact they would be tied for second for me.) I just wish I could modify the heads of the Mata and Nuva.. but I can't find any flex tubing! >.
The Inika's masks were really weird, though I guess it makes sense since they are supposed to be an abnormality, but it was a shame that they took away the gear functions. The Toa Mata look weird to me (seriously, what is that two fingered hand supposed to look lile?) and they share with the Nuva their lack of mobile knees, elbows, and necks which I also don't like. The Toa Metru are perfect blend without them being hideous..... if you know what I mean (2005 nightmare flashbacks intensify)
Did Vakama just dive into lava? Since when could he do that? I know he's the Toa of fire, but that doesn't mean he can survive being melted by molten lava!
tyronexl1998 Trosin waait..... Did they really turn into Nuva with help of krana?? If so, I never knew it! (Maybe because I didn’t know about boncs at that time._.)
Much appreciated, we worked our asses off to make them cool. Buggy software, 32 bit windows that could hardly manage the workload, and so so much overtime.
fun fact about the kaukau: normally, it's the least useful of the toa mata's masks, however in it's nuva form, it's actually the only one that can be directly weaponized (as gali at one point uses it on someone on dry land, causing them to choke to death, with absolutely nothing they could do to fight it)
@@NeonRahkshi She does? That seems like a not-very-heroic thing to do. I didn’t know the Kaukau works like Gillyweed in Harry Potter, where you’d actually suffocate if you used it on land. I thought it worked more like an oxygen mask for divers (after all, that’s what the original Kaukau, in its Mata form, looks like). 🤔
@@cosmicprison9819 she does, it's real late in the series, after teridax takes over (and she kinda had to do it i think) and yeah, my thought is that it automatically activates when you enter water but since nuva masks can be used on others (such as onua being able to give someone else super strength) she was able to manually activate it, and use it on someone else it's an extremely deadly mask and i love that
@@NeonRahkshi Ah, so it was already during Bionicle’s “Grimdark” phase. 😜 I know a lot of those fans that still remain consider the Ignition saga the best part of the entire story. I disagree. I think the first three years were the best, followed by the “prequel” years. But much like with Star Wars, once they went back into the present to do a sequel (with Voya Nui), they did a huge disservice to the old heroes, just in order to prop up the new ones. The Toa Nuva got their masks handed to them when they went to Voya Nui, even though for once, they did what the story always asked them to do: Act in unity. When a story punishes heroes for doing what the story itself considers the right thing, it undermines its own premise. Voya Nui was made edgy just for the sake of it. Why cr*p on the Toa Nuva in the process? So that the need for the Toa Inika could be justified (in other words: so that Lego could sell new products). Also, while I believe the evidence that the big-robot twist was planned from the beginning, I think the writers sacrificed almost everything for the sake of that twist. The realisation that awakening Mata Nui, the goal since the beginning of the story, was always going to result in the destruction of the island paradise, kind of makes you wonder if Makuta had a point in wanting to keep him asleep. That was also what the first movie hinted at (“Sleep spares him pain; awake he suffers.”). The initial story was kind of Kane and Able in reverse (Makuta being jealous of his brother for the adoration of the Matoran). Both would have made him a more complex villain. Instead, they retconned him into being yet another cartoon antagonist striving for world domination. Yawn.
They are all fooling around except Vakama. Nokama is taking a swim and then goes sightseeing, Onewa is using his new strength and bigger hammer to make larger statues, Whenua is collecting glowing stones, Nuju is ice skating/doing parkour on heights, and Matau is flying around.
I remember starting my love for Bionicle with Piraka, those were good times, I also purchased a Toa Metru from Amazon a couple years ago, specifically Vakama. I really don't regret my purchase one bit. Correct me if I'm wrong though, but weren't all the toa metru sets originally supposed to have their own Kanoka Disks, but didn't? I ask this because Vakama has his own disk.
As a member of the team who made these commercials, i can assure you that the budget wasnt big enough :) So MUCH unpaid overtime you wouldnt believe it.
I know right. The way they attached his head made it so he can't look forward. If they had done it like they did on nuju or Nokama, it would have worked better.
@@wheeler116 it would have worked better, yes, but it would have also looked horrible. The way Nokama's and Nuju's masks are dessigned allows for that position to look good, the rest just look like their necks got stretched.
Ioseph Stalin It's a pretty idyllic little island, even if its people had lost all their technological greatness. The Matoran also had no memory of Metru Nui.
It wasn't a Toa Stone, in Ko-Metru the Ko Matoran use those to create towers. Watch again, he throws it, jumps off, & rises up on a tower. Basicly, they turn into towers.
heeeeey, i remember Toa Nokama. he/she(still could not tell if it was a boy or girl) was my FIRST bionicle! i remember i was like 6 yrs old, i had a tough time building it till i figured it out
@@lukasvavra2473 chronologically on the story, the first team of Toa that were released as sets are the Toa Metru, but the first Toa team ever released were undoubtly the Toa Mata.

one of the best Bionicle Series, maybe the best

Much appreciated, we worked so fucking hard making these. Much of what you see was done by a pretty small team of 3d-artists, myself included.
When Onewa pulls in his hooks, I half expected him to blow on one, cowboy style, for making that statue.
"Another Onewa original."
Same here!
These animations are super coom but also give kinda an eerie feeling
The Ice Toa were always my favourite. They were always the silent and powerful type.
It's always the quiet ones we all gotta watch out for!
School shooter vibes.
@@tretretre1111 Bro.
I thought I was a weakest one...

Toa Onewa clearly got the most detailed animation. The cliff breaks and reveals a toa mata/turaga/metru matoran head.

Yaw!
+Trisket it's molten protodermis, not lava, and he can survive in there as long as he can keep absorbing or redirecting the heat.
+Trisket Rule of cool
It's also affective to the TOA Mata mixed with a kranna which makes them evolve into TOA Nuva.
tyronexl1998 Trosin waait.....
Did they really turn into Nuva with help of krana?? If so, I never knew it! (Maybe because I didn’t know about boncs at that time._.)
Nah, Toa Matau was ALWAYS the best of the Toa Metru
Yes! Toa Matau is definitely the best.
Hydrix I TheNerdRage he was the funniest of all the Toa we met in canon imho
Nokama fan here!
Onewa fan here
Of the Metru Nui saga, I know, I know...
Seeing the Toa move their limbs in ways that they just bloody couldn't in real life is always so disconnecting for me
You can now do it like that with adding extra parts
Ah the days where I got one after every time at the hairdressers. Good old days :)
Seeing that every Toa Metru got their logos, I always wondered why only Vakama had a Kanoka disk with his logo.
Becouse he was a mask maker
He is a mask "smith" and create all other stuff
he probably made it himself
Sweet nostalgia. In these times, the world was still alright
No, it wasn't. But our world was smaller, and we didn't see the cracks and the broken seams.
