Kanohi Nuva

From BIONICLEsector01, working on 1,405 articles.

Kanohi Nuva are Kanohi masks that have been exposed to Energized Protodermis and transformed (these Kanohi must be destined to transform). These Kanohi are more powerful than others, and grant the user the ability to share their mask power with nearby beings, although the range for this is limited. Only Toa Nuva can use Kanohi Nuva.

The only Kanohi Nuva are the Kanohi that were formed when the Toa Mata transformed into the Toa Nuva, and the thirty Kanohi Nuva that were made by the residents of Artakha and teleported to Mata Nui for the Toa Nuva. Artakha also gave the Toa Nuva new environmentally shapeshifting Kanohi Nuva along with their new Adaptive Armor.

Only eight types of Kanohi Nuva are currently known to exist. Two of them can be made when three Toa Nuva merge. They are:

• Hau Nuva
• Miru Nuva
• Akaku Nuva
• Kaukau Nuva
• Kakama Nuva
• Pakari Nuva
• Aki Nuva
• Rua Nuva

[carve] Set Information

The Kanohi Nuva were first released in summer 2002 in the Toa Nuva sets, each containing their usual mask in their primary color. In the same year the "Kanohi Nuva and Krana" pack was released, featuring three random Krana, two random Kanohi Nuva in any or any two of the primary colors of the Toa Nuva, a three-length axle, and a Toa Mata/Toa Nuva head with eyes of any of the colors featured in the Toa Nuva

Silver Kanohi Nuva (representing the masks of the Toa Nuva after the loss of their Nuva Symbols) were released in early 2003 in the "Kanohi Nuva and Krana-Kal" set. This set featured three random Krana-Kal, two random silver Kanohi Nuva, a three-length axle, and a Toa Mata/Toa Nuva head with eyes of any of the colors featured in the Toa Nuva.

Kanohi Nuva were released again in 2008, with Kopaka, Lewa, and Pohatu in their forms adapted to the skies of Karda Nui, and three more Kanohi Nuva were released with Tahu, Gali, and Onua in summer 2008, with their Kanohi adapted to the swamp environment of Karda Nui. The Miru Nuva and Kakama Nuva were also released once more in the summer, this time adapted to their forms while in vehicles.
