In his last moments, Matoro feels no fear. He know he has succeeded--the Toa Mahri are safe, able to resume their lives in Metru Nui. The Turaga and Matoran will know that they became true heroes. Matoro does not see himself as a hero. As a Matoran, a Toa Inika, and a Toa Mahri, all he ever tried to do was his duty. Now that duty has led him to his destiny.

While I wish the torsos weren't so flat in some cases, it's amazing to me how much these Toa (the most diverse and strange yet!) compliment each other. Isolate any one of them and their individual flaws become more apparent. But gather them as the team they were meant to be, and all that just washes away. They bring out the best in each other and make one of the sickest Toa teams of all.

you described it perfectly Nick, like always. Hewkii for example gets a lot of flack, i dig his wild design but by himself he seems weak, same with Kongu and Nuparu. Jaller, Hahli and Matoro though are the top 3 for me. But if you put them together they look like a mighty force to be reckoned with. side note I do dig how the cg mini movie gave me flashbacks of power rangers in space seeing them all in rocking in their seats of the carrier sub just like how we saw the rangers being launched in the shuttle.

It may be more recent, but this is the most nostalgic team of sets for me. When 2007 came these Toa Mahri to me were the coolest sets yet, I would spend hours seeing reviews and replaying the commercial. Although I don't think these are the best Toa sets, these are my personal favourites, alongside 06 and 01, though I think this one beats out those 2 just for the nostalgia and for the story. I could make an entire essay and why these sets are great, and why the team as a whole is great. And of course, remember Matoro.

In the mahri mini movie you can see Jaller having his Hahnah crab being stored on his back and you can do that with the set also, of course the crab is not actually connected in any way, but just held in place by Jallers breathing tubes. This configuriation gives Jaller very distinct silhuette.

That diversity is what makes the original Toa so iconic and from then on they scaled back on diversity until the Toa Metru, as great as they are, were just palette swaps sans mask and weapon. That trend was finally broken with the Mahri and the Barraki next MN Monday will really exemplify that diversity.

Not to mention they were pushed to extremes doing things hero’s would never, should never do. Not to mention they were fighting against a literal ticking clock to save the universe. Only to (spoiler alert) lose in the end. Requiring one of their members who was tried harder than any other and was never able to shake his feeling of inadequacy, to make the ultimate sacrifice for the good of the universe! Words cannot describe how much I love the toa inika/mahri.

When I moved out to go to college, I packed up most of my Bionicles to sell because my parents were planning on moving and didn't want to lug all of them across the country. I ended up keeping only 3 sets and 2 of them were Toa Mahri (Hahli and Matoro). I think that is a testament to how great these sets were designed (though I agree with you in that they aren't quite Metru level)

I especially adore Jaller's incredibly well-balanced mix of dark red, orange and black coloring as well as Hahli's extremely eye-catching combination of dark blue and vibrant lime pieces.

I actually finished putting together a Vezon and Fenrakk for the first time right as this video dropped, which felt pretty fitting despite the gap in release years. Really impressed with that set, too. But on to the Mahri, Hahli was definitely my favorite Bionicle growing up, and she got played with until her joints were completely shot. Not surprising considering the color, though. It did always bother me how she didn't have any torso armor, though, and she really could have used some. It would have made her design much more complete.

This might be a little weird, but one of my fondest memories growing up was taking a bath and firing the cordac blaster underwater.

2007 was my favorite Bionicle year because every canister set was designed in such a way that they had their own unique silhouette. The Toa Inika/Mahri were easily my favorite team partially as a result of this (although I do question why they decided to make Kongu look more muscular, which isn't what people normally expect from air Toa). Spring-loaded blasters and Hahli's lime joints aside, these were all stellar sets, and I was proud to have collected them all as a kid!

@Aidex1063 жыл бұрын
I’ve always liked how the color schemes and even their builds were somewhat consistent as they evolved as Toa. Jaller lost the gold elements from his Inika form but his colors were still Metru red and orange, the orange just lost it’s transparency which makes it seem as if they downgraded because they aren’t as OP of Toa as they were on Voya Nui. his build was initially the same minus the chest piece too. Hahli’s white and Metru blue turned to a lime green and that almost feels as if the murky waters stained her colors, her build is pretty similar too trading the forearms for something slender. Nuparu went from this bulked up punk rock Toa to a slender defense typa Toa and retained his chest piece and color scheme except gaining a darker grey instead of the lighter shade he had. Kongu, like nuparu had a pretty drastic change, going from the most slender of the Toa to being the stockiest, but retained his color scheme for the most part trading silver for grey works for the environment I think, I still think it’s funny he became the Toa of gun lolz. Matoro changed into a hunchback with a pretty drastic change despite keeping most of the same pieces from his Inika counterpart, if his thigh armor and upper arm armor were switched it would’ve been more in line with his Inika form too, he also retained his color scheme just ditched the transparent colors for opaque ones. And finally Hewkii, who retained the keetorange but swapped the gunmetal for the darker black. He also kept it consistent with the overall weirdness that the Toa of stone were prone to, I never got Hewkii or Kongu but still plan to at some point. Anyway kinda cool I think

The Toa Mahri are my personal favorite Toa team, and 07 is just my favorite year for Bionicle in general. The sets were good and all felt unique from each other like you mentioned, and that continues throughout the year. Then there was the story with a lot of big moments like Matoro's sacrifice which many fans still feel to this day. Just such a good year for the line. Probably didn't hurt that I was still fairly new to Bionicle at the time too having gotten into it in 06, so this year is quite nostalgic for me (not as much as 06 though).

Además considero que el 2007 fue el Pic de Bionicle con los mejores sets y historia y los diseños por dios, Kongu es increíble, luce como un peso pesado con sus dos Cordak (y me encanta como no lucen como los típicos Toa de cada elemento), Jaller luce épico, como un super héroe, Hahli parece un Angel y la mejor representación de lo que puede ser una Toa del agua, Nuparu tampoco se queda atrás y luce muy rudo, Hewkii tiene toda la esencia de este grupo y Matoro, lindo mi Matoro. Estos 6 se complementan tan bien entre sí, son hermanos, son los mejores Toa.

Furthermore, due to play when I was younger, My Hahli had several of her lime joints break. Now, 15 years later, I'm changing that. I've already got Kongu and Nuparu used off of Bricklink, with Hewkii and replacement parts for Hahli on they way.

I remember that Hahli was first Mahri i had and his shoulder joint popped the first night, i was devastated

When I bought a bunch of Toa Mahri and Barraki used, a few of them were missing a bunch of pieces despite being listed as 100% complete so that is a concern when buying used.

My brother had hahli, i had the other minus nuparu, i really liked the designs on all of them, i cant remember if my brother's had the joint issue, but I remember my Ehlek did, his joints cracked quickly and since I was a dumb child i took him apart to use his weapons for other. Shame they never seemed to hold on the red pins correctly. I personally never kept the weapons loaded, bht they still looked cool, much better than the weapons the barraki had!

Packaging was really no bueno here. Canisters were so iconic to Bionicle and super convenient

I actually had Kongu's Mahri toy as a kid, I can't remember if it got sold or lost, but man, it was an awesome toy.

as a bionicle fan. I always like to clash my bionicles in battle (sets vs sets or colors vs colors). In my youth I damaged a lot of my bionicles, but somehow the pieces didn't crack. I could like throw one like Sparta from my desk and nothing would of happen, but since Barrakis and Toa Mahri released, the pieces didn't seem so enduring like before, specially lime green pieces idk why... Toa Mahri Hahli, Ehlek and the green Glatorian pieces cracked like eggs which made me take care of my sets more, but making me wonder that the quality was going down (strong sets)
