Nanonicle

Nanonicle is a sprite kit made by Dokuma released on December 31st, 2009.
==Overview==
The concept behind Nanonicle is similar to that which originally drove the development of Bioniplush; whereas Bioniplush was first conceived as a means of providing others with the first user-friendly, fully articulate, "live" plushie kit, Dokuma sees Nanonicle as the first serious attempt to create an attractive, versatile, "micro" kit since The ToM Kit.
Nanonicle is the first kit of Dokuma's to sport a full spritesheet similar to Rayg or ToM, including several poses designed to resemble frames in a continuous animation. It will feature a four-color palette, including an outline color, a base color, a shady color, and a luminous color.
==Progress==
The kit in its released form includes Toa Mata and Toa Nuva spritesheets (including Pohatu variants), a Matoran/Rahaga spritesheet, and two poses of a larger Toa Mata version. It also features a variety of masks, including all six Kanohi Mata and Nuva, albeit with most lacking complete 360° views. Although only the Toa Nuva have their own spritesheets, the kit can also create some Toa Inika and Mata Nui by applying the armor to the bare Toa. Several examples of completed sprites are included to sport the kit's capabilities.
It may also be Dokuma's most user-friendly kit, as it is the first to sport full spritesheets with premade poses.
==Trivia==
*Dokuma's favorite Kanohi in the kit is the Miru Nuva partial rotation view. This sprite is a shrunken version of the Rua Nuva Dokuma made specially for TMD's use in a now abandoned flash project that would have featured Dokuma, Nikira, Motago, and TMD in a spoof of Celebrity Jeopardy. Dokuma took a different approach to spriting this mask than he had in prior kits such as Bioniplush, basing its shape on that in an unreleased kit made by Motago.
*The kit has often been compared to Rayg, although the similarities are coincidental.
