i think that they are a kind of name tag or face because without them you wouldnt be able to tell kopeke and Matoro apart or takua and jala. sorry for all the topics comp got messed.

Next time it says there's an error, just go to the Forums again. You'll see your Topic. Anyway, I see... this might be a way to tell Mataron apart, correct? I actually think that's close to the truth, if it's not the Truth. Intresting...

Hmmmmmmmmm, I agree with you.

i think my therie is very good because how could you tell all those ga-korans apart without masks

They have masks for that purpose, yes, but also because they make masks to honour their favourite Toa (Remember, the Toa have to collect Noble masks too - Either that, or they want to curry favour with a Turaga.)

There is only one small problem. Many of the Matoran that we have seen so far have the same masks as other fellow villagers.

The masks are also a way of honoring the Toa. But it takes more than the mask to identify a certin Matoran

Yeah, I think you're right, but they all don't have the same bodies in Ga-Koro, am I right?

You could always thell them apart by voice or attitude. As Lord Lupus said, it's all honoring the Toa and Turaga.
