Toa of Ice - 1987 Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Does anyone know why Kopeke's appearance changed so drastically from the MNOG to his 03 toy? I would like to know if there is an explanation. Here is a quote from Biosector01He was also chosen as goal-keeper for Ko-Koro's team in the Kolhii Tournament, though he and Matoro did not make it to the Championship. He originally wore a powerless Noble Kanohi Komau, but it was damaged in Kolhii practice. So, in honor of Turaga Nuju, he took up a powerless Noble Kanohi Matatu. My guess for the grey colorscheme is simple, Kopeke was blue in the first Mata Nui Online Game.However since Matoro was already the first to have sand blue, so Lego designers gave him grey as a secondary colorscheme.It was a simple to avoid confusion between having suddenly two blue and white matoran... also with kopeke dark grey color lego didn't need a new mask mold and could use leftover grey masks from the old mask packs.

Sumiki Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 (edited) ---Kopaka Nuva---'s quote from BS01 is a bit of a retcon; I believe the MNOG masks are considered non-canon. Many Matoran changed masks from MNOG to future incarnations; specifically there were a few issues between the Ruru- and Pakari-wearing Matoran.

T.B.O.C Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 (edited) EDIT: I read Kopaka, sorry. Kopeke broke his mask, and likely for the set design they used a color of the mask that was already produced.

Bonkle Posted August 15, 2015 Author Share Posted August 15, 2015 What difference? There's no difference between Kopaka Mata and his MNOG appearance, and I couldn't find a difference between Kopaka Nuva and how he looks in the Bohrok-Kal animations (presuming you meant Nuva by 2003 set). Could you explain further?Kopeke, not Kopaka. I been away a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonkle Posted August 15, 2015 Author Share Posted August 15, 2015 Thanks for the responses everyone. That's all I wanted to know. It still would have been nice to get a sand-blue Komau for MNOG Kopeke MOCs. If a mod could close this that would be great. I been away a long time.
