I love Vvoom too much! The mouth is so clever!

This is just pure gold. I love their appearances so much!

######! These are really handy! I would love to own that controller + phone holder.

Edit: Please don't bypass the word filter.

I've never noticed a difference in texture between rubber Krana pieces.  Is there any chance you could take a video comparing the flexibility between the two groups?

 

-

I could do that, but I don't really know how to show that in a video very well. I showed the mask to my friends and I let them squeeze them, and they also said that the yellowish one feels a bit harder. Before I can say anything for sure, I have to buy more Za/Vu kranas and try to acquire the "harder" versions. Then I can compare two same kranas and it will be much easier to tell if they actually are harder.

Okay, so I am guessing that it is just a plastic change. Probably not prototypes then. Do you know when the Krana were obtained? 

 

-NotS

I bought most of the hard ones years ago from a parts bundle, but some of them came (along with the softer ones) from a Bricklink order.

^Raymanni - The trans orange is actually a prelim piece given out to a select few people before the Bionicle relaunch was unveiled (including BZP's own DeeVee).

 

-NotS

Oh yeah. I bet they will go for a really high price if they are put on ebay at some point.

Yes, it might just be a change in plastic. You say it is made of harder plastic, but is it still rubbery in texture?

 

-NotS

Yes, it is still rubbery like all of the kranas, but feels a bit harder if you squeeze it between your fingers.

Hi, I would like to know if there were any other 'special' mask given away at the NYCC excluding the transparent Hau and the Trans Orange Hau? (I don't even know if the Trans-Orange Hau was at the NYCC, but I have seen it around the internet and would like to know where it came from. )

No, sorry, they are completely white, my camera just aren't perfect. They are both completely white kranas, but the right ones are clearly more yellowish and made from harder plastic. The left ones are more softer.

So does anyone have any idea why are there two kinds of the white Krana too? Did they change the plastic in the middle of production?

I love The Mask of Control, but I accidentally clicked and voted for The Mask of Ultimate Power...  xP

I have recently started to collect the Krana masks, but I'm kinda confused about the different shades of one colors, and I would like to get a some sort of explanation about them.

I know that there are two different purples, the lighter and darker ones, both of them are official, but then there is also the yellow ones, whats the difference between them?

I have also realized that there is two different types of the white ones too:

The left ones are more softer and pale. The right ones feel kinda harder plastic and they are more yellowish.

I would like to know which of the colors were released first.

Is there some rules about where I can post my image/s?

I'd also like to know if there really is not any kind of limit to the amount of submissions? So in a theory I could participate with over 100 different creations from all of the different sites?

Okay, which site has got the lowest amount of registered users? Just kidding...

Sorry for a "stupid" question, but does System parts mean the normal lego bricks and parts?

The worst thing? Okoto-Metru-Nui under Okoto.

I'm going to get this next month, if they are still on ebay. I will possibly be the first person to own this in Finland, though I'm not so sure about that. There are some serious Bionicle collectors here.

I'm goin to get all of the sets at once, but the first pack that i will touch with my bare hands is probably going to be Pohatu or Lewa.

 

 

I think we may be misconstruing "misprint" with "factory defect".

Well, a misprint is a piece that is printed out incorrectly... so it is indeed a misprint. 

 

A misprint is more than that. It's a widely applied production error (IE colours that are not supposed to be available, improper assembly, etc) to an entire lot [or lots] of items.

 

And I think it's generally assumed that when we speak of misprints, we imply a sort of intrinsic "collectors" factor.

 

This piece seems more like "end of the paint can" type of defect. An outlier even within it's own batch. And I may be projecting my own opinions here, but I do not see a lot of "collector value" in this one piece, I'm afraid.

 

I agree with that. I don't consider it as one of the "rare-must-get-misprint-mask" parts.

Really nice, but I don't think that only one knee cover would be that of a big deal. I also would have to be really creative to use it in a moc.

When I got Vezon & Kardas set as a christmas present years ago, instead of including two golden Metru Knee covers, it came with two different ones:

Left is the normal piece, and right is the weirdly colored.

It has the same glittery effect, but it is really faint in color, almost translucent.

I haven't seen anything like it before, and I have searched over the internet, but can't find anything similar. Maybe it's a misprinted Knee-Cover? Any ideas?

This is really nice. I'm going to start collecting rest of the Krana that I'm missing, so I will propably use this checlkist.

I also think that a reboot is a good idea. The original story was getting a bit confusing imho.
