Can somebody give me a list of every misprint mask made by lego? Prototypes don't count. I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks!


"Matoran are vanishing! Deceit lurks in the shadows of Metru nui!"- Toa lhikan, the best character ever created by LEGO...

"Toa... So dramatic"- Nidhiki, another one if the best characters ever created by LEGO...

Remember them...

Enax must have misprints to reverse his mutation! Just a red Ruru was enough to de-mutate his head! Then it changed back...

Sprite credits go to Katuko and Strack. Great job, guys!  :D

There aren't that many misprints that aren't prototypes, I know them all I think.

The European Misprints(Turaga masks in Toa colors):

1) Ruru(Blue, White, Green, Brown, Red) The black one came with Hafu therefore isn't actually a mistprint.

2) Matatu(Blue, White, Green, Brown, Red, Black)

Then you have just two Kraahkan misprints:

A Gunmetal one and a New Gold One(Came with Later versions of the Tower of Toa)

There was also a new-gold Avohkii but that's a prototype I guess.

Thanks! I was arguing with a friend about the Hafu thing earlier. BTW, are the kraahkan masks with vents covered up intentionally made that way? I've heard people say that they're misprints, and I've heard otherwise. What's the deal with those?

Kraahkan with vents? I most likely know the answer, can you clarify your question?

I mean, there are two different types of kraahkan that came with 2003 makuta. One had all the little vents open, while the other had the set of vents that was closest to the back of the head closed. You would get one or the other. I have the one with the vents closed. Is one of these masks a misprint or error? Look up "misprint mask of shadows" on google images. It has photos of both masks with the vents in question circled. Apparently, Bzpower had an article on it at one point, but the links don't work. At least, not for me.

I know what you're talking about. The one with vents is the '03 version that came with Makuta. However, the one without came with Icarax in '08. So, technically not a misprint.

Okay, that clears it up, thanks. Though you got to wonder why they covered up the vents in the first place...

Oh now I see, no, TNT is not fully right. The one with "vents" came in the earlier Teridax sets, the one without came in the same set later in the year(and of course Icarax too)

Icarax didn't like the draft. :P I dunno, I kinda feel like making it in MNOLG style now. Did it have vents in the golden version in '05?

 

Edit: Ninja'd!

It was replaced in the middle of 2003 which means only the Earlier models of Teridax in 2003 have vents, all the rest don't

In addition to the others mentioned, there was also the light blue transparent Kau Kau and the transparent yellow Kau Kau that came in 2001 European mask packs. I don't know of any other misprints that made it into retail sets.
