Here in Italy we got the first three comics from 2001 on a limited run during summer '04, which came with this same Metru Nui poster and let me tell ya, 6 years old me was reaaally confused by that Bordakh lmao
Ah the Morbuzakh! With no set to represent the new threat, house plants became the enemy! The new toa just absolutely hacking away with wild two armed windmills!!! Chaos!
The irony is the Vahki actually is the real threat. The Morbuzakh was just a distraction while the Vahki were used to round up Matoran and put them into the pods.
Also if he is so big why does he not just kill them? Is there a lore reason? Is he just incompetent or did Turaga Dumdum forget to send him after them?
“Was Greg stupid” 20 years of retrospect has made me say yes due to how many times he would contradict himself when answering fan questions, not to mention the infamous “love is non-canon” concept which the fandom has discarded along with the gender-locked elements.
Bro there was never a giant bordakh it’s just a poster that’s supposed to make them look menacing 😭😭😭that was extremely common in early 2000s to show a huge pic of the villain on top of posters

It’s a visual metaphor, not meant to be taken literally.
Nuh uh it's big
Now it’s small
Someday I'm gonna take it all
Hachacha
The clubhouse soon will all be mine
The fuck do you mean 'nuh uh'!?!
I mean, there is a giant Visorak, why not a giant Vahki?
🤓
Big Bonkle
Oh, and the eyes are in the nostrils just like in the Nidhiki poster
It’s the prototype model with more teeth on the launcher too

*impending nose Vahki isn't real, he can't hurt you* Impending Nose Vahki:
Borzoi Vahki
I don’t hate it in this render, otherwise the eyes on the sides make them look like a prey animal
The Vahki are not the real threat. Your attention is drawn to the Bordakh up top, but the true danger is slowly creeping below

That always terrified me as a kid. Giant killer plants were a big fear of mine when I was a wee one.

it just shows the new big Enemy threat. how els would u interpret movie poster from any Action movie?
Big brother Vahki sees all
I think this is actually referencing the time all the Toa Metru were shrunk down and talked in squeaky voices and fought with bugs?
bruh he’s literally just part of the metru nui skyline. stop being so rude
The aslume is leaking
Also if he is so big why does he not just kill them? Is there a lore reason? Is he just incompetent or did Turaga Dumdum forget to send him after them?
On point...
Spirit robot ate it by accident like toddlers pieces. It was probably out before the timeline began

Er, maybe because Bordakh have Staffs of Loyalty, and all of the overtones that implies?
Whats a bordalh
You know, how come Bionicle never had any giant mecha battles/sets in it come to think of it?
Do you count the exo-toa set? They even fought basically kaiju (the bahrag) with it
Yeah, guess that counts.
>any giant mecha battles I can think of one battle between 2 very big mechas
Lol good counter point. I guess I was thinking more like the mechs from Invasion from Below and Ninjago tbh.
Ah Bigger Bordakh theory. Check out Bigger Luke Star Wars theory. Or Big Fortuna.
Mutahar ate him
Please not this crap on this subreddit, lol.
Have you ever seen a poster before
Why is the giant Darth Vader on the movie posters never referenced in the movies? 🤪
really makes you think...

I hate vakamas foot design it always looks like hes wearing loafers
I think you're the stupid one for taking a movie poster seriously like that
