Hapori Tohu Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 After yesterday's video, Christian Faber has decided to update the Faber Files with more information about Mata Nui. Turaga Files - Unboxing the Legend - Exhibit 022 shows some of the original artwork and designs for the Mata Nui island and robot and how the two fit together. It's admittedly not canon, but it gives you an idea of what the story team was going for back before Bionicle was even released. Apparently Mata Nui is supposed to be a mountainous version of Denmark! View the full article Quote News Forums Q&A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toa Smoke Monster Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 This is some really cool concept art. I particularly like the drawing that shows the MU robot with bulkier arms. I now going to headcannon that the real MU robot's arms are like that. Quote Everyone is one choice away from being the bad guy in another person's story.

PDPsi HAN Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 (edited) This isn't the canon height is it? 3150 KM is 10 million feet. Is there an official size comparison between Mata Nui and Metru Nui? Edited April 20, 2015 by Draven Quote AΨ 94 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J46 Nui Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 (edited) This isn't the canon height is it? 3150 KM is 10 million feet.

xccj Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 So figures, Italy is his legs. I'm kind of disappointed that the Alps aren't positioned at his abs. 2 Quote My BZPower Stories Dark Core--Kulagi's Kanoka--A Shadow's Contrivance--Mystery on Keli-Nui--BZ-Koro: To Bring Back Bionicle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ta-metru_defender Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 This isn't the canon height is it? 3150 KM is 10 million feet. Is there an official size comparison between Mata Nui and Metru Nui?I recall Mata Nui being 10 times the size of Metru Nui, but don't quote me on that. In any case, I can't unsee Mata Nui and Denmark's relation anymore. Ah well.

Nidhiki of the Shadows Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 This is awesome. Really shows the amount of work put into making Mata Nui's reveal make sense in proportion to the Earth. Very nice diagrams, clearly a lot of planning and measuring haha. Loving these Faber files. -NotS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny7092 Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 (edited) I love this file. It gives a great idea about comparing the Great Spirit Robot's body to Earth visually. Who knew that Mata Nui's face (aka the island of Mata Nui) is like the size of Demark as the island of Mata Nui is inspired by Demark. Boy, that's very huge. I always had hard time visualizing the size comparisons. Though this may be non-canon, I liked the picture because they, as I said, give a great idea about the size comparisons. Anyway, I do love the Faber Files. They are cool every time a new one shows up. Edited April 26, 2015 by Lenny7092 Quote I like Lego, Bionicle, and Hero Factory!
