A bunch of Bonkles fanart I whipped up some time based on background characters from the games, mainly the (officially) unreleased Legend of Mata Nui game but also the GBA game that actually did get released, Quest for the Toa. Barring Podu and Nobua, none of these guys were provided with names, so I took it upon myself to come up with some for them. I should note that I’m operating with the idea that there’s a more even sex distribution throughout the tribes (even if the Ga-Matoran are still predominantly women) and as always, credit goes to @agatharights for coming up with the Matoran baseline that I’ve come to work off of.

I drew some matoran today!!
I drew them on stream! :)
First up is a lil fikou and Kongu!
We have a lovely polycule, Maku, Hewkii, and Kotu!
A fem rendition of a fan favorite, Matoro! UwU
And lastly are two key Onu-Matoran, Nobua and Nuparu!
Let me know if you like them, and tell me your favorite matoran not here, and I may draw them next stream! I play games and stuff every other weekday at:

Alas, Nobua is no more. Now it is Onepu who first encounters Onua. You will be sorely missed, oh great Tamariki. Farewell, and may Neon Genesis Evangelion treat you better
BIONICLE Retrospective
Part 2.5: The Legend of Mata Nui
So, uhh... This exists. Turns out we actually have a lot of the cutscenes from this game, and...uh...wow. Let's just get into this.
The Legend of Mata Nui was a video game for Microsoft Windows that was planned to be released in 2001 as the main vehicle of the Bionicle story alongside the Mata Nui Online Game, telling the Toa's side of the 01 story, but was cancelled before it could be completed for a number of reasons. Technically, since the game was never officially released, it is non-canon, and I shouldn't be covering it at all. However, I did not know how wildly non-canon it was before I started this review, so here we are with Part 2.5 of the BIONICLE Retrospective. Call it a special, if you like.
But yes, as I said, the events of this game's story are firmly non-canon, and can I just say thank Mata Nui. I didn't realize it when I started going over the game because I'd only seen the intro and a bit of the end, but The Legend of Mata Nui is WILDLY canon divergent. I mean we have Kanohi that can be copy/pasted, the toa do dance numbers, G2 Pohatu is there, it's just insane. The Toa don't even gather in one place until they face Makuta, for crying out loud!
And the graphics. Ooh, the graphics. I won't be too mean, it was 2001. But if MNOG can look as good as it does, then what's this thing's excuse?
Oh well, at least it gave us Nobua. And the music does slap, I'll give it that.
But yeah, wow. Not sad we didn't have this back in the day 😅
Next up: The Coming of the Toa
It is him. Nobua, Champion of the Moon
