Boidoh Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Promotional masks like the Copper Masks of Victory had some story relevance. So did the transparent neon green Miru have any? Could a Matoran possibly wear one?

Cambion Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 nope. none at all. it was never even once mentioned in the canon. i'm sure a Matoran could wear one, though; Matoran can potentially wear any mask (except legendaries maybe, i forget).

TERIDAX941 Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 They can wear any type of mask. But they're not able to use them. The one exception may be the Ignika... wearing that mask might not be the best idea... Quote Formerly Iron_Man5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
northmarch Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 I'm fairly sure it was ment to be an 'active' Kanohi Miru. All glowy and stuff like Takanuvas trans-glitter mask. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Takhamavahu Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 It had no meaning at all. I don't even remember why they printed them. Just to be rare and collectible I guess.Lots of people use them in MOCs and I'm sure someone will end up with one in canon one of these days.

Akavakaku Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Transparent Kaukau and Rau exist, so it wouldn't be unreasonable for a character to have a transparent Miru... just a little impractical, since it already has eyeholes.

Same with the Tarakava and the Nui-Jaga, they incorporated the masks into their design to make it fun to knock them off, but canon-wise I'm quite sure that they weren't real masks.

In the Mata Nui Online Game, the Tarakava's mask is removed by Gali.In Chronicles 4, Tahu is suprised that the Rahi Nui serves Makuta but wears no mask. This implies that every rahi that they fought in 2001 (including the Nui-Rama and the Nui-Jaga) wore an infected mask. That being said, as far as I know, you are correct in saying that the Kanohi represented parts of the rahis' design, not masks that cover their faces.

25K Now! Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Don't think they had much of a storyline significance myself, although some Matoran may have worn them for no apparent reason. Quote http://vimeo.com/198967785 BZPRPG Profiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akavakaku Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 You're thinking of the transparent Ruru on the Nui-Rama's eyes. I'm talking about Nokama and Dalu's Great Rau.
