So, we currently have 5 BIONICLE masks from the reboot that have no story significance thus far. (Trans-Orange Tahu, Trans Tahu, Trans-Blue Gali, Trans-Lime Bull Skull, Gold Grinder/Warrior.) Do you think they will ever have meaning in the story, or will they remain just cool exclusives? Are the transparent Toa masks related to the Skull Villains draining their power? Will Kulta gain power through a Golden Mask? Let me know! I think that the trans-orange Tahu mask and the trans-blue Gali mask are more powerful versions of the Golden Masks. The Golden Masks are apparently made of raw magic and pure gold, and it seems the Skull Villains just strip away the gold, leaving more power for the Toa. I don't think the transparent Tahu mask is anything special, though. Edit: Double post merged. -Wind-

What is your favorite Bionicle mask, and why? Do you like the design? The powers? Was it from your first set? Let me know! Also note that you can include a specific color for masks that were released in multiple colors. There are a lot of masks I really like, but right now I just really love the look of the Noble Ruru. The power is kind of meh, though.

Recently, I went to a friend's house, it being summer. He is a TFOL as well, but when searching through his LEGO bucket for JUST the right piece, I hit the jackpot. Tons of old Bionicles. As he has no need or ability to use these Bonkle parts, he let me take some (he kept a lot of weapons). I got everything from a white Rahkshi head and a Vahki blade, to a Metruan torso and even a lime-green Kamama! But one mask in specific piqued my interest. A mask I'd never seen before, and one I couldn't find anywhere after at least a half hour on Brickset, Brickipedia, and BioSector01. Here are the pics: View 1 View 2 View 3 If anyone knows what this is, or is interested in my full haul, please say so. Thanks, and I'll see you in the forums! NOTE: Sorry for poor quality. Had to use webcam.

Picture says it all. What exactly is up with things like that? Are they doomed to remain moral plot holes or are there explanations for them? Please note that that's just an example. There are a lot of other strange contradictions like that in the Toa and Mata Nui's Moral Code.

A good while ago, I got a new puppy. As puppies are wont to do, he started chewing on everything in sight. Unfortunately, I had a habit of leaving the occasional Kanohi mask on the floor. If you're a smart cookie, you'll put 2 and 2 together... ...and come up with this. Now, I hate throwing out Bionicle pieces, no matter the condition, so I stashed this busted Rode in a drawer for nearly two years before I remembered it and decided to put it to good use. I got out my trusty rotary tool and went to work. After all, it was already broken, what was I gonna do? Break it more? The fruit of my labors. Not too horrible if i say so myself, though it could use a bit more polish here and there. What do you think, BZP? Is this acceptable modification, or is it... ABSOLUTE HERESY?!

Hi guys, Wanted to let you know that I put my whole new in box and used bionicle collection online in my bricklink shop! If your looking for a certain bionicle there's a big chance I have it. Name of my shop: http://www.bricklink.com/store.asp?p=caszutphen

Browsing Bricklink's catalog looking at different masks, I noticed some masks have colors listed that shouldn't exist. I'm going to list them here to see if anyone can prove they do. I've been off the BIONICLE scene for years, so I don't know if anything new has been discovered. Orange Hau Medium Blue Kakama Copper Pakari (an obvious edit of this) Red Huna Blue Rau I think these are all fakes, either photographed/scanned in poor lighting or digitally manipulated with a color filter.

Managed to track down a place that sells quick-setting polyurethane resin at a low price. I made the mold out of DIY silicone putty (Silicone caulk + corn starch) and then cast the mask using the resin. It's not perfect though. Had to do a fair amount of sanding. And for some reason the resin stuck a bit too well to the mold, possibly due to the corn starch. I plan on painting it and applying some varnish eventually. I might paint it black and re-create Mata Nui Akhmou. http://40.media.tumblr.com/c5e24934d5f0f5ff37b27ae271ebe993/tumblr_nl4srlyhzH1sapiqzo1_1280.png http://41.media.tumblr.com/43e97e09f07992fc427e7bc5b08766c4/tumblr_nl4srlyhzH1sapiqzo2_1280.png Bonus MOC http://41.media.tumblr.com/faf3705d9189aeaa88ad684ccad758f2/tumblr_nl4srlyhzH1sapiqzo3_1280.png

I havent posted here in months, mostly due to forgetting about this site and other factors I'd rather not discuss, but anyhooo... (NOTE: If anyone out there has made fan-Kanohi and see any similar powers, they are purely conincidental.) The first 6 masks came from an old, silly concept I made in the old BZP Forums. Essentially, the human characters from Digimon Tamers became Toa Metru while their Digimon became Toa Hordika. The Kanohi Koai (from the Japanese kowaii meaning 'scared') was originally for Rika, who became a female Toa of Ice. But it better suited a Toa of Lightning, which are canonically female. The Kanohi Tugitu was for Kazu, a Toa of Earth/Stone (the Matau of his team), but I felt making a dual-element Toa was dumb so I made it for a Toa of Iron. The Kanohi Morphis was for Kenta, who I made into a male Toa of Water, and the non-organic Calix is meant for Takato, who I gave a mask with similar powers to the Calix long before it was created. The Kanohi Mirako (from the word miracle) was a random design I came up with, and the last 6 masks were originally designed for a crossover with an old cartoon but it was so obscure I ditched that idea and made them into masks worn for Toa that were human instead of Spherus Magnans (is that the proper term?)

Hey all I checked and couldn't find a old thread so I thought I'd start a new one for coming up with possible Kanohi powers and refining them into something suitable for the Bionicle. I came up with a format for the best way to convey the mask's power. Like this here. Name: (Matoran name and Mask title. E.G. Sakon mask of Craft animation.) Power: (Describe what it can do) Weakness: (Describe what balances it so it's not OP and also if it has any penalties to it.) Description/Photo: (Describe the mask look, show a design of it or both) Noble: (Tell What it has become once it turns Noble. E.G. Has it lost a time length or a part of the power.) I'll start us off with a idea I came up with recently. Name: Barok the mask of Integration Power: Allows the wearer to absorb material and merge it with their Armor. The shape of their armor after integrating said material is based off how they want to add it. (For example if the user absorbs a bit of metal they can make it a blade on their wrist or add to their armor's density.) Weakness: Only works on non living material such as Metal, Stone, Wood and such. The user can only absorb one thing at a time and there is a thirty second cool down time. Also if the mask is knocked off the user then the alterations they have done will be permanent much like the mask of adaption. Description/Photo: N/A (Will post when I get it done.) Noble: Mask can only add up to twelve pounds of material. Cool down is now two min. So what do you think? Like it? Think it needs work? Got a idea of your own? Post away.

So, a while back, I did a drawing of my Self-MOC using a rough emulation of the Okotomation style. A couple months later, Jakura Nuva asked if I could draw him. coincidentally, he and I were both part of The Kanohi Force (a minor club on here, which I helped initiate). I took the offer to the rest of the "Leedurship Board" and suggested that I do us all. The result is as follows: (Click link to view full image) Here's another that displays each individual.

Hello BZP! I'm hoping this is the right section for this sort of thing. I've been a long-time lurker, on and off since as far back as 2006. One of the things on BZP I was fascinated by was Flintsmith's custom cast kanohi and krana. Now that I've grown up a bit, and have the means to actually obtain the materials I'd need, and the knowledge to use it properly, I started delving into it myself. I made some DIY silicone molding putty and was able to reproduce a krana out of hot glue for a test run. http://i.imgur.com/iBlL0aD.png It turned out pretty nicely, despite taking four attempts, and it fits onto the toa head perfectly. I'm hoping to move on to using either resin or polymer clay to cast actual kanohi, since hot glue is rather flimsy and a bit fragile. Though I have a couple questions for anyone who has experience with this sort of thing. 1) If anyone's been successful at using resin with two-part mask molds, is there any effective method of eliminating air bubbles? One thing I noticed with the glue krana is that there was actually a fairly large air bubble embedded inside. 2) Is silicone caulking oven-safe? The mold putty I made was a mixture of GE All Purpose Silicone I, Corn Starch, Acrylic paint, and a little bit of baby oil. The polymer clay I have my eye on is fimo, which cures at 110C, and the silicone I bought is resistant to at least 200C-250C. Looking over MSDS sheets for GE silicone, it looks like it releases formaldehyde when you exceed the recommended temperature, which is worrying. Thanks!

This was hand forged by a friend in Toronto who is currently taking a metalworks course in university. It's a one of a kind piece created from a 3D model commissioned from 00dude00, (former Bionicle Next Gen modeller) later produced into the Shapeways 3D print also pictured, which was then used as a base for this, which is entirely composed of approximately 4lbs of bronze. The entire process from one person to the next, took about two and a half years to reach completion. The full image gallery, including an infected version, created simultaneously as part of our arrangement, can be viewed below, including concept artwork from 00dude00, modelling progress, photos of the forging process, and information on the pictured scenes from the mask maker himself. https://www.facebook.com/Vahkiti/media_set?set=a.10205127286167494.1404564277&type=3 On a side note: I... THINK this is in the right forum? The description didn't really cover anything like this, but I don't think it belongs in Bionicle based creations so... yeah. Also of more personal interest, is that this was forged almost exactly as G2 animations began circulating. Fitting, considering how much LEGO seems to want us to remember it now. xD

So, I'm looking to complete a collection of Great Kanohi from 2001, and I'm not far off. Here are the Kanohi I need: A white HauA trans-white KaukauA black KakamaA black MiruA brown HauA trans-orange KaukauA brown MiruA blue KakamaA green AkakuA gold HauA teal KakamaA teal MiruA burnt orange KakamaI've also got a Poisoned Hau Nuva here that I'd be willing to sell or trade. I'm in the UK, so I'd prefer to get all of these Kanohi from inside Europe, but if you can offer me the vast majority of them and you're outside the UK, then I'll probably buy.

3D-Printable Kanohi Updated 2-25-15 Full Gallery (High Res) (when public) http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=410271 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I hope this is an OK forum for this topic. These "creations" are certainly "Bionicle-based." Let me start by saying that I am an extremely n00b-ish, amateur 3D modeler. I do not claim nor guarantee that these are of amazing quality. But I was really bored and if you've read my Toa Hagah topic (see sig), it's obvious how much I want the impossible-to-find Blocko knock-off Kanohi. So I decided to try my best to make them myself, and that spiraled into all the stuff you see below. These are all for sale on Shapeways. My shop is at https://www.shapeways.com/shops/masksforall I'm not selling these to get rich, (my markup on each is only $3,) I'm selling them so that anyone who wants them can have them! Again, I'm a verrrryyy new 3D modeler, and these are not of jaw-dropping quality. But it realllllyyyy grinds my gears that there are at least 3 people I've seen online who have made awesome Boinicle stuff via 3D printing.... aaand then never offered them up for public sale. So that's why I'm doing it. Note: The axle-connectors are adequate, but imperfect. I used the exact same dimensions for all of my masks, but some of them ended up fitting quite snugly, while others are pretty loose/wobbly. It probably has something to do with the polishing processes and the difference between different colored plastics. But with a little modeling putty or hot-glue they stay in place fine. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mask of Alternate Futures (Olisi) Shop: https://www.shapeways.com/model/2999647/kanohi-olisi-mask-of-alternate-futures-bionicle.html?li=shop-results&materialId=94 Wiki: http://bionicle.wikia.com/wiki/Olisi This one was pretty straightforward, actually. I made it larger because Karzahni's a bigger dude. The smaller "teeth" on the right side of his face were supposed to be more pronounced, but evidently the polishing process wore them down to teeny-tiny. (You can tell how sooper-awesome I am at making curvy 3D things by looking at his eyebrow *sarcasm*.) I'm trying to paint it at the moment, with blue and silver. I'll let you know how it turns out. Update I am a much worse painter than 3D-modeler But here's an idea of what's possible. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update 2-2-15 Mask of Elemental Energy Shop: https://www.shapeways.com/model/2997158/kanohi-pungao-mask-of-elemental-energy-bionicle.html?li=shop-results&materialId=62 Wiki: http://bionicle.wikia.com/wiki/Mask_of_Elemental_Energy I used the actual model from the PC game for reference on this one. I'm happy to announce that version-2 fits a Toa head very well! It's a tiiiny snug so I'll do a very minor tweak and feel safe taking it off Beta. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mask of Healing Shop: https://www.shapeways.com/model/3001876/kanohi-blocko-1-bionicle.html?li=shop-results&materialId=62 This is a recreation, to the best of my ability, of one of the bootleg Blocko Kanohi that I've never managed to get my hands on. I'm actually pretty happy with how it came out. It's not perfect, but considering that the real thing is next to impossible to find... Update 2-25-15 Eeeeveryone wanted it bigger and swoopier. Result? A mask that is WAY too big and swoopy. Seriously, it is huge. And the connector was placed too high. I accept 10% of the blame. I'll try to scale it down. Shop: https://www.shapeways.com/product/PB6NQ6FNL?li=shop-results&optionId=55196985 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update 2-2-15 Mask of Emulation Shop: https://www.shapeways.com/product/LMTXDZYMG?li=shop-results&optionId=43310525 This is the other Blocko mask. This is the updated version.

I'm happy with my rendition. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mask of Elasticity Shop: https://www.shapeways.com/model/3001749/kanohi-rapa-mask-of-elasticity-bionicle.html?li=shop-results&materialId=62 Wiki: http://biosector01.com/wiki/index.php/File:Comic_Toa_Mahri_Leading_Matoran_to_Safety.png I wasn't happy with the side-cover on this, and the bottom was too narrow to fit on a Toa head. I've widened it and extended the sides back for more cover, but until I have the new version in my hands this is also beta. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update 2-2-15 Mask of Life This took soooo long. It's kind of rough around the edges but if I spend any more time on this, I'll go insane. (For those who don't know, this was our first glimpse at the MoL from the VNOLG. Then the Toa Ignika set was revealed and everyone was all, "Whaaaat?" And they had to invent some story about how the mask can change shape because reasons.) I'm happy with how it turned out, although I may spend some time thickening the protrusions for durability's sake. Shop: https://www.shapeways.com/product/UASSTX527?li=shop-results&optionId=55082122 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update 2-25-15 Mask of Diminishment This is based on 2015 concept art. When I first saw it in person I thought, "aww, it's too big." But actually, it's only slightly larger than Toa Nuju's Kanohi Matatu. So I don't feel so bad. I might try and make it slightly smaller. The eyes are a bit far apart (ironic, since a couple of people thought that they'd be too close together - save your judgments, people,) so I might tweak that, but it wouldn't be simple. Shop: https://www.shapeways.com/product/8S8EVNCCN/kanohi-pehkui-mask-of-diminishment-kanohi?li=shop-results&optionId=55100092 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update 2-25-15 Mask of Weight Increase I'm very happy with how this came out! This is based on a tumblr drawing by just-a-drawing cat. (Link http://bionicle-art-squad.tumblr.com/post/100331847523/challenge-week-4-kanohi-angaru-fan-created-mask) This took a very long time because I made at least three bone-head decisions that made me waste a bunch of time and go back to the drawing board. Shop: https://www.shapeways.com/product/7JPT3KTEX/kanohi-himata-mask-of-weight-increase-bionicle?key=f66e1a122580413de8cee894f46490e4 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update 2-25-15 Mask of Psychometry Not much to say here except this is based on art by GarryTheSkrall from http://www.bzpower.com/board/topic/10901-the-first-toa/ I'm happy with the finished product! The eyes could be brought in a bit, I'll see what I can do. Shop: https://www.shapeways.com/product/ATV76NDNZ?li=shop-results&optionId=55135452 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update 2-25-15 Mask of Growth Even though I own the real version of this Blocko mask, some people wanted their own after they saw mine in my Toa Hagah topic. I'm very happy with how it looks - I know the forehead looks a little weird but trust me, most of the weirdness is from the oddities of the renderer and once it's printed and polished it should all be one nice smooth surface. My only concern is the size. I've done my best to make it able to fit an old fashioned Toa head but since the Blocko mask is too small to fit one, I had to increase the size on this model. So we'll see how it turns out. Shop: https://www.shapeways.com/product/V3UNJVVS2?li=shop-results&optionId=55150502 Update: OR, holy cow, you could just buy one directly: http://www.toysrus.com/buy/lite-brix/cra-z-art-lite-brix-building-system-blaster-bot-35800-52102146 Update2: Shapeways made a mistake! They forgot to send me this one for some reason! So, still waiting! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update 2-25-15 Mask of Clairvoyance Even though I own the real version of this Blocko mask, some people wanted their own after they saw mine in my Toa Hagah topic. What you might not realize about the Blocko masks is that they are designed to be used with the Blocko head, which is much skinnier than the Bionicle heads, so I had to widen this out a bit while trying to keep as much of the "feel" as I could. Update: The mask is actually too big. I'll see about narrowing it and shrinking it a bit. I was concerned about the old Mata head being compatible but I think I'll focus on the Metru head here. Shop: https://www.shapeways.com/product/KRT94AHAB?li=shop-results&optionId=55158167 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In case you were curious about the names I assigned them above. (I hope you notice that almost all of the fanon-canon weirdo masks of strangeness do not exist for me. I hope you are the same.)

I made original rack in 2008, first it was more simple without any Vahi, gold Ignika, Kraahkan, Hau. The biggest rebuild I made week ago, changing it and fixing few things. Today come to me gold Vahi and Kraaahkan that I'm order from Bricklink. Main idea is to add all the most characteristic and powerful Masks from original Bionicle. So it almost completed. That head on top is place holder for Mask of Creation, when it comes out finally. Because MoC was in original story and beside I want to have 3 Gold Legendary Masks. That's why I rather not plan to add MoUP if it ever come out. Gallery: http://imgur.com/a/dlSg0 Update: So, I rebuild it to bigger form, and added some masks. Top place is for MoC. Left handle is for movie version of Kraahkan. Silver Hau is placeholder for chrome Hau. Gallery: http://imgur.com/gallery/feSaR Update v2: So, everything I wanted is now on place. Movie Kraahkan added, Chrome Hau added, and MoC added! Gallery: http://imgur.com/a/EPxGg

So, this was an old theory I had years ago but never brought up. Another topic posted recently made me think of it again. Also, reading one of bonesii's theories on how protodermis and powers added to it. Here goes. The part I gleaned from bonesii's work is that the protodermis molecules contain code for all the different powers, and that certain combinations of them work together to form objects and beings that contain those powers. My theory is that all beings in the MU (that can use Kanohi, of course) have access to the powers that the masks provide. We know that Kanohi keep the Matoran functioning, and losing Kanohi can (not always, but potentially can) make other beings feel weaker. What if the masks are part of some kind of circuit, and removing them breaks it? A Toa's strength is diminished, and their elemental powers are weakened. So the masks have power related properties and life-sustaining properties. I'll use an example to explain the theory: Tahu had "internal drives" that contain the powers of Kanohi, and implementing a certain mask completes the circuit and brings that power out of him. So, a Toa couldn't use the power of X-ray vision without the mask, but, like their elemental ones, the power is in them. Thoughts? Theories? Theatrics? (Bear in mind, this idea is about 6 or 7 years old at this point, and not one I hold to anymore. I just want to see what you guys make of it. )

Hey all, As I've been going through the BIONICLE lore and working on making designs for my upcoming collab I've come upon a few things that I'm not sure on. Mainly the nature of Kanohi. From what I've gathered they seem to energized to set their protodermis in a program code almost at a point where the masks are near mystic level. (Yes I know it's not magic but technology) My first question is do you think there maybe energy cells like maybe a lightstone variation containing the essence that sets the code power? Also I ran across this prototype mask http://bionicle.wikia.com/wiki/File:Prototype_Jaller_Inika_1.png and plan to incorporate it in my collab but I do wonder most great Kanohi are a single color so should I rework the mouth gaurd to fit that theme or should I use it as is? Also I'm not 100% if this is the right place to start this kind of topic but it seemed to be the best one
