Kraata?

Recommended Posts

I was going around looking for Kraata to buy. I wanted to know the powers before I bought them, so I checked the Kraata guide. I am probably color blind or something so help me out and tell me what Kraata are these?

Much thanks... I could never figure these out, I checked the guide on BS01, I can't recognize the colors, especially since the seller has stuff like 'copper tail' in the description and there is no copper colored Kraata on the guide. I tried the .swf one, and I worse cannot figure them out...

Hope that helps!

"Vahki were rarely, if ever, surprised by anything. After years of tracking down and subduing Rahi of all sorts, the order enforcement squads were experienced at handling almost any situation. Add to that foiling the ingenious attempts of some Matoran to try and take unscheduled vacations from work, and Vahki could safely be said to have seen it all."

Thanks a lot! I'll probably end up getting the Elasticity one, it seems to be the coolest power out of those (plus is the cheapest :P).

Here are all the correct powers and color combinations. I'm going to list the colors by their official names, then by their Bricklink names in parentheses in any cases where the two names don't match. There was just one minor error in HoloTheWise's list, due to mistaking Sand Yellow Metallic for Reddish Gold (which the chart he used unhelpfully referred to as "bronze" and "copper").

 

1) Insect Control

Bright Yellow (Yellow) and Black

 

2) Dodge

Bright Yellow (Yellow) and Sand Yellow Metallic (Flat Dark Gold)

 

3) Vacuum

Bright Yellow (Yellow) and Bright Yellowish Green (Lime) 

 

4) Ice Resistance

Bright Yellow (Tan) and Dark Green (Green)

 

5) Mind Reading

Bright Red (Red) and Lemon Metallic (Metallic Green)

 

6) Accuracy

Bright Red (Red) and Bright Blue (Blue)

 

7) Slowness

Light Grey Metallic (Pearl Very Light Gray) and Sand Blue Metallic (Metal Blue)

 

8) Magnetism

Bright Orange (Orange) and Black 

 

9) Confusion

Black and Reddish Gold ("Copper")

 

10) Elasticity

Bright Yellowish Green (Lime) and Bright Yellow (Yellow)

For the record, the BZPower Kraata maker is horrendous. It completely misidentifies some of the Kraata colors (for instance, the Kraata of Shattering is the ONLY one that it recognizes as having Sand Yellow Metallic in it at all, and it renders that as a generic brown). This Kraata checklist is also horrendous, using multiple names and colors to represent the SAME COLOR. I find it appalling that so many fans have managed to throw together error-riddled charts and checklists when the official color names, color combinations, and the powers they correspond to have all been available for free online since 2003.

 

If you have to use a Kraata guide, use the one from the 2003 BIONICLE website. It doesn't have powers listed, but at least it identifies all the colors correctly. Once you know what the actual, official color names mean, the BS01 Kraata Variations page makes for quick reference to look up the powers that correspond with each color combination. Using these two charts together, you should have a much easier time finding answers to all your questions than you would with a terrible fan-created chart that uses made-up names.

You can also blame LEGO for making these slugs all look the same

The fact that the shapes all look similar does not in any way excuse fans from identifying the same color by two or three different names, particularly when the official color names are all readily available. You don't see people making Kanohi chart that call some of Tahu's masks "Crimson" and others "Scarlet". I know that the Kraata were pretty lousy collectibles, but you'd still think the people who made the checklists and charts would show a little more care. Edited by Aanchir

I almost mistakenly bought a Kraata with a black head and "copper tail" for a Kraata of Heat Vision... I thought the tail was orange.

 

Then I decided to search for one with an orange tail, found the picture and asked in a topic. Just to clarify if it was a Heat Vision Kraata.

Well, personally I own a full set of kraata. Just looking at them, I can easily distinguish the difference in colors. But looking at some pictures, it is easy to mistake the copper colors and the bronze colors.

I personally just have them about as their own individual characters. I mean, this ONE PIECE OF RUBBER PLASTIC can CONTROL RAHI!??! Or maybe shoot HEAT VISION!!! 

 

They are just little epic pieces of rubbery plastic.
