History
The pods were created as part of Teridax's scheme to take over Metru Nui. During that time, Teridax impersonated Turaga Dume and commanded the Vahki to put the Matoran into the pods for his plan. Teridax would then, using the pods to put the Matoran into hibernation and erase their memories, claim them as his own by telling lies about being their savior and other tales to them once they were awakened and "saved" by him. This did not work, however, and the pods were later taken by the Toa Metru and was brought to the shores of Mata Nui where the Matoran inside were reawakened by the Toa. During this voyage, the Po-Matoran Ahkmou's pod was lost in the sea, being the only pod not rescued and brought to Mata Nui by the Toa Metru.
Due to the aftermath of being in the pods, all of the Matoran's memories were erased and they were gradually degraded to a less powerful and shorter form. The pods, along with the Airships used to carry the Toa Metru and the Matoran to Mata Nui, were melted down and used in the construction of the Koro.
Set Information
Two of the tops from the Toa Metru canisters can be combined to form a Matoran Sphere.
There were plans for a four-legged 2005 model capable of carrying up to four Spheres. However, the set was never released.
