Earth Claws

The Earth Claws were weapons wielded by Toa Mata Onua. They helped him dig, pick up large boulders, etc. They were part of his hands, so he could not remove them. Onua could also channel his earth powers through them. The Earth claws became Quake Breakers after being transformed by Energized Protodermis.

Set Information

 * The claws were first included in the Onua Mata set 2001.
 * They then were included in many other sets including Piruk, Nui Rama, Nuhvok Va, etc..
 * They have been available in five colours. They are; Florescente Green, Florescent Orange, Black, Silver, and White.
 * A lot of people get this mistaken. When the Tarduk set was released, a lot of people thought that it was the first sets to have Florescente Green claws. However, the Nui Rama set was the first set to have them. The Green Nui Rama to be precise.

Trivia

 * In BIONICLE Heroes, the claws are Nuparu's default weapon. They fire out grenade-like blasts that explode after a few seconds, but can be detonated manually. They could be upgraded into Toa Whenua's Earthshock Drills.
 * A foam version of Onua's Earth Claws was released in 2003 and can be only found in certain Lego outlets (not stores) back then.
