Well, I applaud you for the very thorough detail of your theory. It definitely makes sense, I hadn't read "Makuta's Revenge" in awhile (come to think of it, that's an odd title considering that the Kal weren't necessarily his revenge *unless* the revenge was the Kal stealing the powers and defeating the Toa again and again and again). I like what you said about the Nuva powers being too much to contain in their bodies, I could be wrong, but wasn't that discussed/confirmed elsewhere? Something about the Symbols being extra batteries to store all the excess power that a normal Toa couldn't hold, and that's why they were able to overload the Kal with the energy? Not 100% sure, so feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. I like your theory definitely, I think I'll consider that my head-canon, whether it's true or not. I think someone above said they were going to ask Greg, so I'm still curious as to what he might say on the matter, even though it may or may not be to our likings *coughglatoriangreatbeingscough*
