It is said that the Nuva masks were created when protodermis touched them, but how did all the kanohi masks get turned into Nuva form?

I think you just answer your own question,they touched protodermis

some wat like wat u said, when they touched the proto they mutated and changed into the kanohi nuva

i think mr onua means how did the kanohi nuva that the toa werent wearing turn nuva, like the green kakama or the white pakari, since they were found later by the toa nuva.

That's what i meant.

oh...i don't know..ah thats a hard one....some how when ever the toa change there mask they "magicaly" appear on them? do they actually carry them? somone should ask Greg F

The toa were emerged in protodermis to get the kanohi nuva, but how did protodermis touch all the other masks on the island?

Turaga of Shadows is right, you just ansewered your own question, they just touch tho proto and morph into the nuva!

That's not my question!!! When the toa were chasing the bohrok kal, they had to collect other nuva masks. How did all the masks they found get turned into nuva?

Maybe it's because the Golden Kanohi were changed into Kanohi Nuva so they had all the other Kanohi in them. So technically all the masks would be changed into Nuva. But who knows how they got scattered across the island.

Maybe...but i remember someone saying that when the toa touched the proto, the golden kanohi ceased to exist.

i think when the toa became nuva all the normal grate masks disapeared and the nuva ones apeared. im not sure tho

but how could they change without proto?

That's what I mean. When the protodermis touched the Golden Kanohi, all the masks in them were changed to Kanohi Nuva masks but were scattered about the island. So the Toa Nuva were just left with their original mask and the other ones in the Golden Kanohi were just in other places. Hope that clears up my last post a little.

Perhaps. GregF is coming out with a book about the masks. Maybe my question will be answered in it.

I don't think a Matoran would get a Nuva mask because there are only the certain ones that were changed by protodermis. But then where does a Matoran get his mask from? They must already have it when they're born I guess.

Matoran's masks don't have powers,and are created by the Matoran themselves as a sign of respect towards the Toa and Turaga and therefore they would not need to collect masks

I think I know what happened to the ones the Toa weren't
wearing, okay this is my theory:
The Toa were wearing the Golden Kanohi when they
hit the protodrmis, and somehow the Golden Kanohi are
connected to the other Kanohi, and so when the gk (golden Kanohi) got turned into Nuva, so did the others,
now as for how they got scattered across the island,
remember when Takua was in Ga-Koro during one of
the news updates on Bionicle.com, well remember that
flash of light that was behind him, I think it came out of
the suva, well that flash was probably what scattered
the Kanohi nuva over across the island.

I always assumed there was a mental link goin on, and when the masks changed to nuva, the power that was telakaneticly transfered shot them out across the island.

Uhhhh... I think you just answered your own question. They got touched by protodmeris and was mutated.

Thekanohi got nuverized by simply being submerged in protodermis!

Perhaps the other masks fell into protodermis just like th masks that the toa nuva usually wear

they were formed when they were touched by protodermis just like you said.

Id ask Greg F. if Iwere you.

I think I know.
After the toa became toa nuva all the kahoni ( except for the one's that where the toas ( like the hau was still belonging to tahu) ) shot out of the suvas and into area's where the toa nuva had to find them AGAIN

I think that the masks were morphed or transfromed when they became empowered in the protodermis

The protodirimis probably has some magical liquid or cemical in it.
So when the kahnohi touched it it caused some magical or camical reaction...
But thats gust my thiry...

Nice call on that one!

I think the othe Kanohi Nuva may have just appeared all over the island when the Toa turned Nuva (so Lego could keep the mask collecting going).

Welcome to BZPower Mr.Onua!

In my opinion, and you don't have to agree with me, the golden Kanohi that the Toa wore when they fought the Bahrag were thrown from them when they hit the protodermis because, if you look in the back of some instruction booklets, you will see Lewa floating in protodermis, the golden Miru floating above him. So, I believe that the Kanohi Nuva are pure protodermis. I don't think the Kanohi Olda were transformed into the Nuva.

Moving to Theories...

Theory:

It takes place in the Turaga's true home. The Turaga were young Matoran, and they followed the steps of the wisest Turaga. The big problem was: they were weak. The spirit of the island taught them how to make "Kanohi", masks of powers that will grant... power.

The Ancient Turaga used all the powers they could imagine to make masks. But suddenly, the good spirit banished. The evil spirit had banished the good one. And chaos began. They summoned the Toa, who were more powerful back then. After "battles", the island was a completely destroyed, and the Turaga sailed to the place they will call Mata Nui. The Toa were injured, so they were thrown on the sea.

When Makuta appeared, the Turaga summoned the Toa (this time weaker=olda form). Then the story begins...

On 2004, the evil spirit will finally find the Turaga, and the Toa Nuva & Takanuva will try to stop Him.

Do you like my theory?

i think that they mutated because of the goldkanohi but then became separate masks and u shold pm GregF and ask

That's pretty good . But we won't know for sure until next year. I also like the golden kanohi theory.

Maybe as soon as the Toa's masks touched the protodermis it sent out a signal of some kind and transformed the rest of the masks to the nuvas.

I think the Olda mask is actually inside with a Proto coating on top of it. The power is the same but the Proto coating on top magnifies the power. The Proto coating is the Nuva mask.

I thought that it said somewhere that when the Toa were transformed, protodermis leaked out from underground and became the Kanohi Nuva. This would also explain why powerless Kanohi Nuva are the color of protodermis.

Do you know where you heard that from? It would basically answer my question.

errr there is a simple sugestion (not one that i like ) but it could be that its just a falt in the storyline, it happens quite offtern, i mean its not a very big falt...
or,
all the Toa masks are conected together, by some kind of magic...praps thats what makes them so special ...anyways, when one of them goes into the protodermis, it causes a chain reaction, so all of them change...but then again, did the Toa have all of their masks when they entered the protodermis?
(><) ...i'm starting to think that this is just a falt. (><)
ohh well, i'll leve it up to u guys & gals to come up with some simple solution to this dilemma
