Popular Post SPIRIT Posted October 4, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted October 4, 2015 (edited) You know, sometimes I feel bad for Kongu... 2003... Kongu: Awesome, they're releasing updated Matoran sets. Here's my time to shine! Are you ready, Tamaru? Top selling sets of 2003, here we come! Set Designers: Sorry, man. We can only release 6 Matoran this year, plus Takua and Jaller. Kongu: I understand, it's what you've done in the past. Makes perfect sense that you'll do it this year. So which Matoran are you picking? Set Designers: Well, Macku, Hahli, Hafu, and Hewkii are all in the movie so naturally we'll need sets of them. Kongu: Naturally. But that's only four. So obviously you'll want to pick the most colourful sets to-- Set Designers: Actually we're going to go with Matoro and Kopeke. Kongu: Blandy McBlanderson and Boringsville McGee? Why would you pick the two least visually appealing sets to round out the line? Set Designers: lolidunno. Oh, I've got it! Matoro sacrifices himself to save Mata Nui's life in 4 years. That's why we did it! Kongu: There's no possible way that storyline has been planned out at this point. Why didn't you pick the Le-Matoran? We're much more eye-catching, and thanks to a glitch in MNOG2, we're impossible to beat without hacking the game. If anything, we're the real Kolhii champions. And why does Kopeke look different from his original MNOG form? How hard would that have been to make? Set Designers: TOO BAD SO SAD BETTER LUCK NEXT TIIIIIIIIIIIME! Kongu: ---------------------------------- 2004... GregF: Good news, Kongu! You're going to be in Legends of Metru Nui. Kongu: Awwww yeaaaa. In your face, Nuparu and Matoro. Looks like everything's coming up Milhouse. I mean, Kongu. GregF: We're also letting the guy who voiced Makuta voice you too. Kongu: Oh man, that's the best. Let me guess, I get a major role in the film, right? GregF: If by major role, you mean you wimp out and risk killing the Toa Metru and causing extensive damage to public property to save your own life... then yes! Kongu: ---------------------------------- 2006... Kongu: Finally I'm a main character! Now there's no possible way that-- Set Designers: We're giving you literally the ugliest mask in the entire series. Enjoy. Kongu: ---------------------------------- 2007... Kongu: Oh wow, I get the Zatth: the Great Mask of Summoning! This is the best power ever! It's like having my own Accio spell like in Harry Potter! I can just be like Zatth -- the remote! Zatth -- the last Oreo! Zatth -- the Ignika. Actually, I should probably do the Ignika one first. Huh, that's weird... it's not working... GregF: Sorry man, it's actually a mask that summons Rahi. Kongu: Oh, well that's not as good, but I think I can work with that. So I'm basically Aquaman now? GregF: If by Aquaman, you mean a worse version of Aquaman, then yes. You can summon the Rahi, but you can't choose which ones, you can't control them, and you can't get rid of them after you've summoned them. Kongu: Why does this exist? Why would a Matoran Mask Maker, the Ignika, or the Great Beings ever think this was a useful power? GregF: Dude, I don't know. I'm just making this up as I go. Set Designers: Also we're not giving you any sort of melee weapons, just two Cordak Blasters with incredibly limited ammo. Oh, and a giant glowing tumour at the back of your head. Kongu: WHY IS IT ALWAYS ME?!Hahli Mahri, Lesovikk, and Ehlek: Dude, it could be so much worse.

Bonkle Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 I thoroughly enjoyed this. It's extremely funny if you follow the story (like me) and it's just intelligently written. I would like to see more like this! 1 Quote I been away a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooster Nui Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 I never thought he had it that badly, until I read this. I do agree that anything is better than those lime-green joint pieces, though. It's a good thing he never had them, especially when you consider that lime-green was a part of his color scheme as a Matoran. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 1st Shadow Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Never really looked at him that way until now. On the note of 2006, he even comments on destiny's dark sense of humor in giving the Toa of Earth a mask of Flight while the Toa of Air can only read minds. Poor Kongu, indeed. 3 Quote ~Your friendly, neighborhood Shadow ~Credit for Avatar and Banner goes to NickonAquaMagna~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toatapio Nuva Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Poor Kongu always pulls the shortest stick of destiny, doesn't he? Really enjoyed reading this, found it quite funny and accurate.

Really enjoyed reading this, found it quite funny and accurate.On the bright side, he wasn't the idiot to put on the mask of life. Ohoho! I like that. I feel the same way too, as Le-matoran/toa are my personal favorites. Why did they have to pick on Kongu, I mean they gave Jaller inika a pretty cool mask, why couldn't they give him the ugly one.

Erasmus Graves Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Man... poor Kongu. I never realised how madly he got it.Still, on the bright side, he got two Cordak blasters.I still feel sorry for Onepu though. He was a part of the Metru Nui arc Mavrah flashback, and then he disappeared until the immigration to Spherus Magna.But still, poor Kongu.

Wiriamu Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Man... poor Kongu. I never realised how madly he got it.Still, on the bright side, he got two Cordak blasters.I still feel sorry for Onepu though. He was a part of the Metru Nui arc Mavrah flashback, and then he disappeared until the immigration to Spherus Magna.But still, poor Kongu. Ah yes, poor Onepu. He got to be the head of the 2001 Matoran Nui and help Nuparu build the Boxor...and that was about it, apart from being thrown into the whole Mavrah story for the sake of being "hey, the McToran are still relevant!" It's funny; he and Kongu both got shorted on the Kolhii Matoran lines since they chose not to create the Onu-Koro and Le-Koro Kolhii teams. Would've been nice if they could have had a second set of 2003 Matoran with those two groups and a couple others like Nuparu and Kapura.

Master Inika Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 This is a really clever observation. Kind of like how Lewa always got infected, in a way. I don't mean to self-promote, but I did once write a fanfic called "Kongu's Bad Day." Quote "You are an absolute in these uncertain times. Your past is forgotten, and your future is an empty book.
