  • @chuckschwa
    @chuckschwa 7 лет назад +106

    I have a theory about Papu and Rangi: they are the original names of Akamai and Wairhua, the Toa Kaita.
    If Papu and Rangi were the gods of earth and sky in Maori culture then the Toa Kaita certainly mirrors that. Tahu, Pohatu and Onua combine to become Akamai. Powers of Fire/lava, Stone and Earth = power of quake. Gali, Kopaka and Lewa combine to become Wairhua. Powers of Water, Ice and Air = power of storm.

      When I first found that out, I was crushed by disappointment in the fact that it never came to be.
      Why did they scrap it? It gives us something familiar - a Toa - but would surprise us by making it evil. That kind of contrast is one way to draw people into a new set. Furthermore, it would be a Toa vs Toa plot with focus, rather than the side-plots of Nidhiki and Tuyet and whatever other Toa became "evil". The overall story would've been more consistent, considering that he was a fairly notable character in the Metru Nui and Mata Nui arcs but fell off the face of the plot after that. And finally, it means that he could've become a real Turaga when Teridax got him to "rule" over Metru Nui.

    @HunhowsShadowStalker 8 лет назад +39

    I have some headcanon for this 7th Tribe.
    Because they seem to worship Makuta Teridax, it may be that it's a tribe of Shadow Matoran. It could be explained in-universe that these were the Matoran that the Toa Metru couldn't save and thus fell into the hands of Teridax after his escape from his protodermis prison. In a similar way as the Shadow Matoran of the Phantoka line, Teridax drained these Matoran of their inner light, turning them into what he dubbed Kra-Matoran (Kra being the official prefix for the element of Shadow), and led them to found the tribe of Kra-Koro.
    Ahkmou would, in turn, be a spy for the Kra-Matoran, working behind the scenes to stop the Toa Mata in any way he could. This would eventually lead to him becoming a Toa of Shadow and, perhaps, a Turaga of Shadow after Teridax' takeover of the Matoran Universe?

    • @JakesFavorites
      @JakesFavorites 6 лет назад +5

      Dark Pope Ahkmou sounds like a great idea. If they didn't jump all over the place with the story it might have been a really nice idea. I'm all for a sustained villain character with a proper arc that isn't just the Devil.

    Don't know if anyone else remembers this, but after BIONICLE ended a few years ago, Greg Farshtey wrote a couple short story serials that took place after the Battle of Bara Magna, called "The Powers That Be" and "The Yesterday Quest". A concept of one of these serials was that of a character named Marendar, a robotic weapon of some sort created by the Great Beings long ago to destroy the Toa should they ever turn against the Matoran. While the concept did not go unused, unfortunately the serials were never finished, and Marendar was only mentioned and described in a single scene. So I guess you could look at this as somewhat of an "unused concept", considering it was never entirely delved into.

      I remember that, I thought'd it would've been awesome to have all the Toa from every gen having to fight off an unstoppable killer robot. I know in the story the robot was set to activate if a large number of Toa (what the Great Beings thought would be an invasion force) ever came to Bara Magna.

    • @LordStarscream100

      Gamer Genesis That's exactly what I wanted to. It would've been awesome! I loved the original finale with Mata Nui facing off with Teridax, but I felt that really rendered the other characters useless in a sense considering they were thousands of feet on the ground below. Having them fight a character like Marendar, who is as powerful as he has been described, would be a fantastic finale.

    Of all the concepts, Ahkmou should have become that shadow toa. In fact, Ahkmou should have gotten a larger role in the story, period. It would have been awesome to see him and Takanuva fight, or even better yet, if Ahkmou had antagonized the Toa Nuva during their quests for the Masks of Power. Maybe it could have been he who hid the Masks of Power in the first place and set the traps. Perhaps he could have been the entity the Nuva faced in either the first book or in MNOG when they went below to confront Makuta. Heck, he could have aided the Bohrok and the Kal instead of just making infected Kohlii balls. There was a place for a servant of Makuta in the story, and my mind enjoys wandering where it all could have gone.

    In terms of design rather than personality, I always felt that Pohatu should be portrayed as the youngest. When I first saw Pohatu in his original Toa Mata form, everything about him, the way he’s built, the fact that he kicks stones like soccer balls, even the design of the Kakama just gave me late teenager vibes. But that’s just me.

  • @andrewkirk2548
    @andrewkirk2548 4 года назад +3

    The ones that hurt the most for me from least to greatest:
    #8 - Would have given away the Metru Nui secret island twist too early (or at least would have detracted a lot from the twist).
    #7 - I like how it worked out in the story that MU inhabitants didn't really age (although that should have been completely different with Bara Magna inhabitants) so I'm pretty glad this got scraped.
    #4 - Maybe the asthetics and appearances of the '08 Toa would have worked better for the Toa Mahri, that's probably why they look so mismatched as the Toa Nuva. Their appearance absolutely could have been handled better but I think it was still nice to see them back in action. I'm also glad '08 didn't end up being stretched out over several years; I feel like it would have been an unnecessary delay.
    #10 - Cool concept but it really doesn't add much beside the Bohrok parallel.
    #1 - This is literally the only time I've heard of Papu and Rangi. I've played through MNOG but it still just flew by me and I completely forgot about it. Would have added some interesting backstory, though.
    #9 - The Bohrok queens being giant spiders would have been a far more intimidating foe than what they ended up being but at least we got it as an alternate model.
    #5 - Invasion has loads of cool concepts and they would have been nice to have, but I feel like it would have been a sort of semi-filler book like Darkness Below.
    #3 - For a while now I thought it would have been cool to see a sort of delusional cult of Matoran. I think that would have added a bit of depth to the lore and I find it kind of strange that Ahkmou was the only Matoran to ever be corrupted like that. Maybe not in '01 but at least eventually.
    #6 - It would have been so awesome to see a shadow Toa. It had already been an unused concept in LOMN and its disappointing that it never came to fruition.
    #2 - This... just... what we could have gotten... what could have been: new characters, new places, new sets, new molds, new concepts... I know the Bara Magna saga wasn't (and still isn't to some extent) particularly favored among Bionicle fans, but it really felt like a breath of fresh air after so many years of stale colors. Sure, the 5th and 6th films wouldn't have been that great at all, probably would have been even worse than LRB, but it would have been better than what we got in 2010. We would have seen the Elemental Lords, met new Glatorian and Agori, traveled through the Valley of the Maze and gone to Bota Magna and so much more.

You know, it would have been far worst if Cartoon Network handle Bionicle and made a Bionicle show with unfunny humor and makes fun of Bionicle and also disrespects to fans of both Bionicle G1 and G2 as well?

      @JakesFavorites 6 лет назад +1

      Yes, this. Definitely this. I distinctly remember Matoro dying more than once. Or at least, being revived in one of these instances, in the books.
      But of course, this would lead to the necessitation of Bionicle fans having critical thinking skills, or brains to begin with. I certainly dropped Bionicle after the Karzahni incident, where they made a big green boogeyman with legs and the Toa-Metru as Matoran fighting it and called it canon. It completely flies in the face of everything that's ever been established with those characters, so using their names with it is just pointless. That green thing is not the Karzahni.
      This would be like if they brought back Keetongu, except he's blue and has four eyes and spider legs and was retconned to be the progenitor of the Visorak species. That golden cyclopean ascetic we all know and love for his near-lack of English skills? He's actually a good Bohrok who was NAMED after the Visorak lord. Because screw canon, our interns are busy not knowing anything about Bionicle.

    @bluestreakedladyshe-her8507 6 лет назад +2

    I always had a theory that the Makuta Icarax set was meant to be Ahkmou at one time, since we had a titan Takanuva. If the Mahri were supposed to originally take to the skies, then maybe that explains why Tahu, Gali, and Onua's Mistika incarnations look so odd, since they may have originally intended to be Jaller, Hahli, and Nuparau.
    This may also explain the Phantoka versions of Pohatu and Lewa's masks look more like a redesigned regular Kakama and Miru respectively, while Kopaka's is like a redesigned Akaku Nuva (though oddly looking more like a great Matatu).

I feel like if they can make it work, it will greatly increase sales, or do a side stars-like series. Just an idea.

They were failing until Tāne Mahuta split them apart a different way ( with his legs ) . Now Tane Mahuta is a real Kauri tree located in Waipoua Forest in NZ (Aotearoa) . Also due to the fact their parents had been split Tāwhiri Matea ( God of Winds), in rage, ripped out his own eyes and threw them to the sky which is called Mata ariki or Matariki ( Mata Ariki means Eyes of God. And Matariki means Little Eyes). Also could mean Great Eye. Like how Mata Nui means Great Spirit. I'm from NZ

    personaly I think the greatest unused bionicle concept has to be the bionicle legends invasion book. I recently read through the bionicle 2007 line of books and I enjoyed it. But i think it was a bit fast pased a bit more character development towards the barraki and other new characters such as hydraxonn definetly could have been used. Plus we didn't get to see them for very long wich i think is sad because i realy liked all the new characters. also i was kinda dissapointed in the fact that there was no apearence of Lesovikk or Karzahni . And I think this book would have been a perfect solution to that. the concepts of this book sound realy great. Thats why i think that this is the greatest unused bionicle concept. However the scrapping of the 2010-2011 storyline trail very closely behind. But thats just my opinion

    I would've liked a Shadow Toa Ahkmou vs Takanuva. Also the sets still kinda have more of a mahrivibe i mean thats probably why gali mistika had a mask that doesn't resemble any other kaukau designs. It looks more like hahlis 2006 mask. Shouldve been 1 extra year to save mata nui's life and then one final attempt to wake him up so he could push makuta out of his body who has taken over when a 2008 matoro saved matanui. The nuva would then take on makuta in metru nui or even in a now semi post apoclyptic matnui.

They left the Toa Mahri as mind controlled Skakdi slaves with the Toa Hagah going to save them. Lewa was captured by Boto Magna natives. Kopaka and Pohatu where left stuck on The Red Star with Mavrah. The Marendar was accidentally let loose to kill all the toa. And on top of all of this Velika was revealed to be a Great Being, had murdered Karzahni and Tren Krom, and was about to murder Axonn, Brutaka, Toa Helryx, Makuta Miserix, Artakha, Toa Tuyet, and Vezon all at once.

    8.maybe interesting. not much to comment tho
    7. I would have enjoyed it altho I can see why they scrapped it
    6. I would have loved this tbh since evil toa would have been cool.
    5.
    4. interesting altho I am glad they went with the way they went
    3. I would have loved this...altho could this idea have been reused since in 2008 line there were matornas who worked for the brotherhood sooo. maybe it wasnt completely scrapped haha
    2. i knew this would have been here. It was too obvious
    1. I never heard of these tbh. its possible they could have been godlike beings but as said its probably templars idea.
    as for myself I was always facinated about the water creatures

      @ToaArcan 8 лет назад +3

      +jesusHERCULESchrist More than likely, he wouldn't have died in 07, but in 08 instead.
      In the canon story, using the Mask to heal Mata Nui can only happen in Karda Nui, so instead of Matoro breaking through to the core at the end of 07 and dying then, the story likely would've seen the Toa Mahri defeat the Barraki together, maybe with the aid of Brutaka, Hydraxon, or Teridax, and then progress to the core as a group, with the Mask in their possession.
      Upon arrival, they would find themselves dealing with the same problems as the Toa Nuva: The year's villains are corrupting and enslaving Matoran, so the Toa have to partner up with the survivors to face them. Maybe they would've still been Makuta, maybe Lego would've kept the Brotherhood for the Nuva's story arc and created a new group of villains.
      The Toa would reach the Codrex, Mata Nui's heart, and this would be where Matoro donned the Ignika and sacrificed himself to save his friends and the Matoran (Maybe undoing the Kra-Matoran's mutations too), destroy the villains, and bring Mata Nui back from the dead and setting the stage for the Toa Nuva to awaken him.
      I'm guessing that the Toa Nuva's story would've been similar to the Toa Nuva Blog from 2007, with them making preparations for Mata Nui's rise, and, rather than healing him at the core, descending into the tunnels below Metru Nui to jumpstart his brain, making The Darkness Below, or whatever that serial was, part of the main story. Teridax would've used the brain's own defences against them, with a construct of himself being the final villain of the saga.
