BIONICLE Nuva: Magnetic Mania
Encounters with Gahlok Kal are never fun.
True believers will get the gag.
Aww, and I was looking forward to trying out my wise old Po-Koro/Texan accent. 
JK, I really liked this!
I guess I must not be a true believer, though, as I'm not sure I got the joke (I was under the impression that Gahlok Kal were Bohrok, not Rahi? If I recall correctly Gahlok Kal was the elite water/blue Bohrok-Kal--although its power may have been magnetism, which would explain the joke. But I thought magnetism was the power of the white/ice Bohrok-Kal... but I'm probably not making any sense so I'll just stop now.).
I don't know the Matoran Alphabet so I couldn't read the writing at the beginning.
Nice smooth animation, though, and I really like how you used the MNOG-style backgrounds; it worked really well here (quite surprisingly; I wouldn't have ever thought it could look so good), and you blended it nicely together (very nice green-screening!). Kinda makes me wish I'd gotten more into BIONICLE when it was still around.
Thanks!
Gahlok Kal was, as you said, the Bohrok Kal with the power of magnetism. In one of the animations on BIONICLE.com, back in 2003, Gahlok Kal managed to 'defeat' Pohatu briefly by magnetising a bunch of cows to him, hence why there are Rahi attached to him now. Kohrak Kal, the white one, had the power of sonics.
Hope that helps!
Those backgrounds look great. I want to see the frame expand! Huge sets made with rocks and sticks would be really cool, like Brotherhood Workshop's sets but Bionicle scale. This is neat though, really like the style.
