Toa Suva Questing Oculus


Recommended Posts

Years back, this was the first image I saw related to Legends of Metru Nui. It's concept art by Duane Loose of a 'Toa Suva Questing Oculus". The image first appeared on BZPower as a leak, I believe, as it was cropped to not show the Kopaka stand-in and was old grainy jpeg quality. My memory is a little foggy. But anyway, here is the full image. Kind of reminds me of something out of the MYST games. Does anyone have any ideas on what this did? Was it part of the Toa Suva in the Ga-Metru temple?

Here is the Questing Oculus deconstructed

 Here is a door that leads to the Oculus (note the bubbly plant textures on the door match those on the underside of the Suva). You can see the Ga-metru disc icon in the center eye of the door. This door design was used in the movie, I believe, for the Onu-Metru tunnel scene.

Whatever that is, it's pretty cool, and it looks like the eye droid from Return of the Jedi. This has all the weird ambiance of 2002-2003 BIONICLE stuff. Kopaka must be so curious looking at it.

This just makes me wish the '04 arc kept its initial direction. It's got the mysterious, pre-2004 feel that Bionicle really shoulda kept until Mata Nui awoke.

Rule #1: Always listen to Kek.

Rule #2: If you break rule #1, kindly don't.

Rule #3: EVERYBODY TYPE IN THE CHAT "AVAK IS A STUPID TRIGGER"
