Official Description
Matoro is the sole interpreter of Nuju's mystical stories, following the meaning of the storyteller's movements and tones. He always stands motionless on Nuju's right during storytelling. He strikes a narrator's pose with his legs apart, head back and he uses his deep and booming voice to relay Nuju's wisdom. Matoro stays close to Nuju since the Bohrok have awoken, so he's close at hand whenever the Turaga hold their councils.
Storyline
Matoro was nearly destroyed by a Muaka on the snowy slopes of Mt. Ihu, but was saved at the last moment by Kopaka.
Comments
Available for a limited time only through a promotion at McDonald's in North America. Typically goes for $5+ on eBay, or the set is available as part of a bundle through secondary retailers such as ToyWiz.
The name "Matoran" replaced the original term "Tohunga" after LEGO received complaints by some members of Mäori tribes, native people of New Zealand.
