===[[2002]]===

In 2002 the ''[[Toa Nuva]]'', transformed forms of the Toa Mata, were introduced. They included silver armour and larger, more smooth masks. They wielded silver modifications of their former weapons, for example [[8533 Gali|Toa Mata Gali's]] hooks transformed into water axes. Their canister lids had new designs and could be stacked. The lids also had axle holes in the lid, similar to the 2001 lids.
===[[2006]]===

During spring 2006 the [[Piraka]] were introduced. They featured light-up eyes, rubber faces and spines and a new weapon called the ''Zamor Launcher'' which fired plastic balls called [[8719 Zamor-Spheres|Zamor-Spheres]]. The secondary weapon of the[[File:Zlauncher.jpg|thumb|left|Zamor Sphere Launcher]] Piraka was a double-sided weapon which could be flipped. [[8903 Zaktan]], for an example, featured a secondary weapon with a three-bladed scissor on the one and pincers on the other side. Their canisters were bullet grey with a screwable lid. The lid contained the light-up eyepiece and it had to be taken out before it could be built with. There was also a plastic mold of the respective Piraka head, which in turn could also be removed from the lid, although it wasn't compatible to any [[LEGO]] [[TECHNIC]] piece.
The [[Toa Inika]], which were released in summer 2006, carried a modified version of the Zamor Launcher: It had an additional piece that made it able to hold four Zamor-Spheres at once, instead of one. The Zamor-Spheres included with the Toa Inika came in the colours orange, blue and green. As their secondary weapon, although used as a primary one, was a strobe-light tool which glowed either red, blue or green. It could be activated by pressing a small black button on the side of the weapon. The weapon pre-included small batteries, which were removable. Each head of the Toa was designed with a rubber mask, and could not accept any other mask. This caused problems for some builders who wished to use the new masks on custom characters but wanted the original eye colour of that character, not the green they had. The plastic canisters of the Toa consisted of two parts. The bottom part could hold the four Zamor-Spheres and the strobe-light weapon. The top part fastened everything into place. The sides of the canisters showed the word "BIONICLE" on them.
