Onua's Alternate Form


Toa Alvarno

Recommended Posts

Anyone noticed that Onua has an alternate form in Mask of Creation that has a tail and more armor? What do you guys think about it? There doesn't seem to be a set version of it at the moment, since it's a slight variation from the "power-up" mode. Do you think there is any storyline significance to it? Or maybe the fact that he's the only character in the game with this alternate form?

Are there any pictures for those of us who haven't played the game?

 

Anyways, it sounds like it could be hinting towards a future upgrade to Onua and the others, which jugding by your description sounds like a cross between the Nuva and the Hordika. It may also just be something the developers added in, in which case it probably doesn't have any meaning and is just an easter egg.

I think it is intended to represent the devs' interpretation of the Protector-Toa combiners. People have mentioned seeing Kopaka's and Tahu's combiners if I recall correctly; I too have only seen Onua, though.

I haven't seen any of them. At what point do these forms appear as I've completed the game and seen none of them...

Onua's alternate form is unlocked automatically on the iOS version and Kopaka's is unlocked automatically on the Android version, from what I've heard. I believe these are going to be combi models similar to the Tahu combi model recently released on the LEGO Club website. Chances are we'll see building instructions for them released online before the year is out.

I took a few screenshots of Kopaka's upgraded form

 

Pretty sure that red piece on his back is a glitch, though

It is. Before my game started crashing, I had Kopaka's alt. form and it had white armor on the back.

 

That picture makes me want the new armor in red though :s

Hopefully it's a sign that we'll get Toa Hordika-esque Toa later on in the future.

Yeah because the Hordika were great :s I still don't understand how you get this form. I'm on android and my Kopaka never looks like this!

That alternate Kopaka looks really cool, especially with the wings. :) Hopefully that is the combined model for Kopaka and the Protector of Ice, because I have both of them and wouldn't mind building this if/when instructions are released for it.

 

Also, does anyone know if Lewa and Pohatu have alternate forms on the game as well? I know that may be a silly question, but I was wondering if anyone had unlocked alternate models for them if they do exist.

Everyone is one choice away from being the bad guy in another person's story.

I will try to post a screenshot of Onua's alternate form when I get home tonight. Does anyone know the proper way to post images on BZP? Do I need to upload to a host or just upload directly? I can't remember the rules from last time.

Either way is fine. To upload to BZP you have to use the Gallery - it's best to consult the New Member Compendium and/or the Pictures topic if you can't get the hang of it.

Ah I see. I did wonder why that button didn't seem to work... Given that the tutorial is essentially, 'click stuff and things happen' it's no surprise people don't know!

So that explains why there was another form of Kopaka in the android version.

Since the game has collectible armour peices for customisation, my guess is that we'll be able to unlock the other toa's forms after we collect all of their peices. I dont know if this is true or not yet

Considering no one's managed that so far, I'm a bit skeptical that that's the unlock method. I think it's more likely that the other upgraded forms will be added in further updates to the app throughout the year.

Someone has actually, though I forget who... I think it was possibly NotS or TLH but both could be wrong! I'm up to 91 parts now but have been too busy with other stuff to waste time on the other 98 lately! I actually just checked the game as well as it was updated a few days ago but I didn't log into it since. No new forms or pieces since then so was probably just a bugfix...

How could you forget that it was me?  I've got all 189 and I can confirm that no other alternate Toa models are available other than Onua for me.

Well I've been spending the evening sifting through the assets in Unity. I have good news, and bad. The good news is that Onua and Kopaka's alts are both in the PC version, (they appear to be using more Protector parts on their models than seem to render in game. >.>) I also found Tahu's alt, and though from what I can see, it is indeed the Club exclusive combiner, either my assets are very incomplete, or so is the model.

 

That brings me to the BAD news. As far as the other three Toa are concerned, the game doesn't actually contain the alts at all. The models for the combiners are actually completely different assets within the game. Where the normal Toa just start with a folder tree labeled after their name, the combiners are categorized under (TOA NAME)_Exclusive, which simply do not exist for Lewa, Gali and Pohatu.

 

I imagine at some point the game will be updated with those models, but for the moment, I think it's pretty safe to give up hope of unlocking them ourselves. Sorry to burst everyone's bubble, but for the most part, this mystery is now solved.

 

EDIT: Screenshots. Again, pretty sure my asset bundles are somehow incomplete, but this is the best I have at the moment.

I've collected all of the pieces in the game on the android version. I used a simple glitch of setting the game 1 day ahead of the current day and so on. Took me a good 3 hours of patience to send a toa to lose inmediately in the survival maps and redo it over and over but i did it.

I can confirm that reaching the final piece does not award any special congratulations text, any reward nor any alternate models although all of the toa have a combiner button and kopaka is the only combiner still unlocked.

Anyone else see the sunken dragon hunting Kopaka?

Perhaps the ice elemental from Lomn has come back for revenge, after all these years...

Where did you guys see that?

 

I assume they meant the half textured platform in my above post. :P

Aw man, so we may not get a Pohatu, Gali, or Lewa combo? That kind of sucks. :( 

 

-NotS

Well considering the nature of the game, LEGO could always decide to push an update, but judging by the fact that the PC version removes the alt swap buttons entirely, I'm guessing they've just given up.

5 months later and still no updates to the app...guess Lego really has forgotten to make alternates for the rest of the Toa...what a shame.
