Plot
In a brief introduction paragraph, Tahu Mata and Lewa Mata are the first two sets to be built. After introducing themselves to Turaga Onewa and Turaga Matau, the sets elect Tahu Mata as their leader.

In the present year, 2010, Tahu Mata makes a speech to the assembled Bionicle sets, revealing that Lewa Mata is his second in command and that the arrival of the very last line of Bionicle is imminent. His speech is interrupted halfway through by the entrance of Matau Metru, who announces that the Stars line has arrived.

Kazi announces the arrival of Nektann, the Rahkshi Stars, the Skrall Stars, Gresh Stars, and Takanuva Stars. Each of the sets are built by former version of them, minus the Skrall Stars, who are rejected by the Skrall and are assigned to be built by several 2009 and 2008 sets.

As the sets are built, Kazi is shocked at the discovery of the final Stars set, and what it could mean for the Bionicle sets. Tahu Mata, asking who it is, discovers upon being answered that he might not have wanted to know, for the final Stars set is none other than Tahu Stars, his remake.

Trivia
