8719 Zamor - Spheres 8719 Zamor Spheres is a BIONICLE set containing 10 Zamor Spheres that can be used in a Zamor Launcher . Background . Zamor Spheres are a kind of weapon in LEGO BIONICLE storyline , first appearing in the " Legends " story arc . They are essentially hollow balls ; gas , liquid , or energy can be put into them , depending on what effect is desired . The spheres are then fired by Zamor Launchers at the target , where the solid surface temporarily becomes intangible and the substances inside them pass through the target . History . The earliest known Zamor Launcher was used by Toa Jovan , roughly 79 , 000 years earlier than the Piraka and Toa Inika used them . The ancient weapons were recently rediscovered , and modern Zamor Launchers were first designed by the Vortixx weaponsmiths . Prototypes were then sold to Matoran on an unknown island some 3 , 000 years ago ; but were stolen by Nidhiki and Krekka for the Dark Hunters ( at some time before this Nidhiki was mutated into his insectoid form ) . Their mission also included destroying the production machinery , to delay the Matoran from making more launchers quickly . Recently , a group of Dark Hunters abandoned the organization . Calling themselves " Piraka " , they traveled to Voya Nui to search for the Mask of Life ; their weapons builder , Avak , built Zamor Launchers for each of them to use in their schemes and the leader , Zaktan , built a vat to collect a virus called " Antidermis " that would fill the Zamor Spheres . But some of Voya Nui ' s Matoran opposed the Piraka , and they managed to steal one of the Zamor Launchers . After studying it , the group ' s inventor , Velika , built a set of launchers of his own and gave them to the Matorans ' new allies , the Toa Inika . The Inika ' s launchers are upgraded from the Piraka ' s , as they can hold up to four spheres instead of just one . Collectibility . Each of the 2006 canister sets included four Zamor spheres : Every Piraka had yellow - green spheres ; Toa Jaller and Toa Hahli had light green spheres , Toa Kongu and Toa Matoro had blue spheres , and Toa Hewkii and Toa Nuparu had orange - yellow spheres . Each of that year ' s playsets also included both blue and green spheres , and the Zamor pack included gold , silver , and black spheres . The Mahri Nui Matoran and Hydruka sets also include two orange - yellow sphere pieces apiece ( though in the storyline they aren ' t Zamors , but rather solidified air bubbles ) . This makes for six to eight sphere colours to collect , depending on whether you consider the Piraka and Inika greens and the Inika and Mahri Nui orange - yellows as the same or different from one another . It should be noted that a majority of the Zamor Spheres in the toy sets are different colours from what the storyline says . The Piraka ' s Zamors are yellow - green , while storyline says that antidermis is greenish - black . Similarly , the Toa Inika Zamors are of various colours , but in the story they are filled with energized protodermis , which is silver in colour and glows silver white . Use in BIONICLE Heroes . In BIONICLE Heroes , the player has to retrieve one in the second level in every zone ( excluding Vezon ' s Awakening ) The Toa Inika , however , never used them during gameplay .
