    The milky white Metru foot is probably one for Nuju that got too little pigment. Other parts like that which look like prototypes but came from regular sets have been found, like a Gaaki head with too little pigment that looks like the glow-in-the-dark Barraki armor.

    Picture might not make it clear, but it is definitely not a white foot with too little pigment. It matches other milky white pieces I have seen or own.

    I would say you're correct -- milky white. I've never seen one before! However, milky white is a relatively common color among prototypes -- any way you might have acquired that kind of piece?

    Either way, the color seems indisputable -- it's either milky white or opaque glow in the dark! Seems to me that it's either a rare part or a very well made knockoff. Do the marks match other Toa Metru feet you might have?

    Last question... since we're in this forum, if you believe it to be genuine LEGO, would you consider selling it?

    Here I am responding over half a year later. My apologies. Life went cray cray.

    Yes, I may indeed be interested in selling it, especially as I just opened up a mostly Bionicle centric shop on Bricklink. I've become much more knowledgeable about Bionicle over the last few months, considering I accumulated hundreds of sets and thousands of pieces, and I don't see how it couldn't be anything but genuine based on the markings, weight, feel, and age of the lot it came from (came from an old lady clearing out her basement from stuff her grandson had as a kid and personal 3d printers weren't really a thing back then).

    My only problem is that I still have no idea what the value would be considering I have yet to see another one out there on which to compare it. I have a lot of Lego with no price history, like certain sealed Service Packs, which is frustrating.  If this piece is one of a kind, I would imagine it is worth a fair amount but what that is, I have no idea. If you were a seller, what would you put it up for?
