Set Information

The McDonald's version of the set packaging

The set was included in McDonald's Happy Meals in September 2001 as one of the six "Tohunga" sets. Each Happy Meal came with one of the six sets, randomly selected. The set consists of eight pieces.

The set was also given away for free in C1000 supermarkets in Holland during 2003 with the same set number, alongside eleven other sets.[1] This version of the polybag lacked the McDonald's branding, and the instructions advertised the Rahkshi.

By combining pieces from Matoro with 1390 Maku and 1392 Kongu, one can build a Matoran Kaita. Matoro can also be combined with 1388 Huki, 1389 Onepu, 1390 Maku, 1391 Jala, and 1392 Kongu to create a Matoran Nui.

Features

Matoro's arms can be pulled back and released, making them shoot back forward. His right hand is capable of holding a Bamboo Disk, and doing this while he is holding the disk causes him to throw it. The disk could also be stored on his back.

Collectibles

Matoro wears a sand blue Akaku. Also included is a Bamboo Disk featuring Kopaka's Kanohi Akaku and the mask's name.

Reception

1393 Matoro scored a 69 on Brick Insights, indicating poor reviews.
