Kakama

"The desert landscape passed in a yellowish blur, all details obscured by the Toa's immense speed. After a moment, the yellowish blur shifted into a brown one punctuated by flashes of green, and then quickly grew paler again until all Pohatu could see around him was white."

- Narration, BIONICLE Chronicles 1: Tale of the Toa

The Kanohi Kakama was the Mask of Speed. It gave its user the power to move and run at amazing velocities. While wearing this mask, the user did not have enhanced senses, so that everything appeared to be a blur while running.

Kakama were carved out of a mixture of Teleport and Reconstitute at Random Kanoka on Metru Nui.

Set Information
The Kakama was first released in 2001 in three sets and colors: A dark brown version was released in the Pohatu set, an orange-brown one came with McDonald's promotional Huki one, and an exclusive teal one came with the Tarakava boxed set. The Kakama was also released in red, blue, green, black and white in the Kanohi pack, which contained two randomly-selected masks.

In 2002, the Kakama was also released in a similar Mask Pack, this time in gold or silver and also coming with three Krana in addition to the other randomly-selected Kanohi.

The orange-brown mask later returned in 2003, when Hewkii's set was redesigned and released as a small set.

Six years later, a Noble redesign of the Kakama was released in orange with the Photok figure.
