  1. On the subject of staffs/spines, there were at least 3 other Rahkshi seen in the comics. Two in comic 16 : an orange (or gold?) "Vohrahk" and a yellow (gold or tan?) "Turahk". It should be noted that in the books, this scene describes a Rahkshi of heat vision specifically. In comic 22: a blue "Panrahk" (+ another in silhouette). Maybe molecular disruption? I like the idea of a bin having randomized Rahkshi parts to mix-and-match. It's probably the most realistic way they could do it. And technically, there are only 18 unique colours, so it would be a little more manageable to collect than 42. This makes me wonder what Bionicle would be like if they had more of a DIY approach like Hero Factory tried to. It wouldn't work the same way obviously, but maybe they release value packs each year with exclusive colours for other clone sets like the matoran. That way you could build some of the side characters, like Tamaru, or make your own more easily. I'm getting off topic, but I can imagine having supplementary adaptive armour packs for the Phantoka/Mistika. With different fins, masks, or whatever else to customize the Toa.
  2. That's interesting, I would've thought the prototype colour scheme would make a more believable wasp, but I suppose it wasn't a factor into the decision at all. Sorry, I should've been more clear. I didn't create this spreadsheet, it was posted on Discord by another user back in June. From what I understand, a number of parts were inventoried on LEGO's site in unreleased colours, which is where the entries came from. It's possible some of these were never actually produced at all, and if they had been, they were likely destroyed. Still, it's a neat look at the design process. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/17hRhzagTGwiSroqkkpgHo8u1oHHnEy4t/edit#gid=667561492
  3. These prototypes are really cool to see! While the final colours were a good decision, I like how the yellow here is more bee-like. (Which makes me wonder how the Nui-Kopen would look). A while back, there was a link in the discord to a spreadsheet of unreleased parts. Among other things, it implied the Nui-Rama were created in these two colours, but I didn't think anyone would actually have them!
