“Kopaka Nuva uses old and new pieces to take the much smaller Kopaka from the first series of Toa and transform him into something truly epic. The bulk of the figure is improved upon and the newer Nuva Masks of Power gave the Toa a grittier looking edge. (At least in my... More opinion.) It was like... Well the first batch of Toa were children in their teen years and the Toa Nuva represented adult versions of the same character, if I can make such a comparison.”

“By combining pieces from Kopaka Nuva with 8567 Lewa Nuva and 8570 Gali Nuva, one can build Wairuha Nuva. Turning a gear in Kopaka Nuva's back causes him to swing his Ice Blade up and down. His Ice Blade can also be split in two and attached to his feet to serve as ice... More skates.”
