* '''[[Film/IronMan NUPARU WAS ABLE TO BUILD THIS IN A CAVE! WITH A BOX OF SCRAPS!]]''' [[note]]Fans eventually drew similarities between the circumstances of the creation of the Boxor and the Iron Man Mk I armor as feats of engineering made to escape from dire straits, as well as between their creators, Nuparu and Tony Stark respectively. Creator/JeffBridges' quote from the MCU adaptation was thus exploited and frequently comes up whenever the Boxor is mentioned. [[/note]]

In particular, Matoro's sacrifice the end of the Mahri Nui arc to resurrect the Great Spirit has become a major TearJerker among the Bionicle community. Jaller and Mata Nui himself are also common targets of said jokes given similar actions that they performed during the storyline.[[/note]]
