Drew some of my favorite extra wacky Bionicles!

Let me know if I should draw any more! The more obscure, the better!

Kra

Anyone have any idea what was up with all the "Kra" names in 2004? Like seriously, all the Toa Mata's names get remixed with Kra at the beginning, is that supposed to mean something?

Like seriously

Tahu > Kraahu

Gali > Kralhi

Pohatu > Kraatu

Kopaka > Krahka

Lewa > Kraawa

Onua > Kranua

What is happening here. Both Toa Metru combiners, both Vahki combiners, a dinky little polybag set I'm not sure was actually released, and the 6-Toa combiner model Rahi all share this bizarre pattern. Is this supposed to mean something? It feels important, but it's not like anything comes of this, as far as I know. And like okay, some of these are kind of a stretch, but it's weird this pattern can be made at all, right? And even without it, that's still a lot of Kra names! But why?

And it doesn't even stop there, because look what happened in 2005!

Takua > Krakua

(Honestly I'm mostly just confused about why I didn't notice this earlier)

Ok so I keep getting the Kraawa and Kavinika's names mixed up, but like. Can you blame me?

Like this Fucking Thing™ (affectionate) should definitely be called Kraawa, right? Like I'm pretty sure that fits it better. But no, it's a Kavinika.

And this heterochromic megafauna is the real Kraawa, but like. That name has more "little skrunkly beast" vibes than "beast with claws and a weird chest protrusion". That being said "Kavinika" doesn't really fit it either, so...
