Yeah, I mean, it was in every copy of the 2003 Takanuva set. 
Even considering that I had it on hand last time I posted in here, I left out any mention of my Pearl Gold Mask of Life. Nowadays, the top spot goes to my transparent dark blue Noble Ruru, which only ever appeared in the 2001 Nui-Rama set. Itās for sale though - Iām trying to raise some funds for something even better.

Just gonna post a pic of my rarest masks and head pieces, although it might be a bit subjective.

Still find it strange that the silver Nuva masks are that expensive - as far as Iāve seen on bricklink each of them costs between 20 and 40 bucks. I mean, thatās insane! You can get a complete '01 mask collection for about 200 bucks as a comparison.
Also that '08 Avohkii, chrome Hau and dark blue Ruruā¦ youāre rubbing salt in the wounds, manā¦

I found my silver Nuva masks quite ācheapā, around 12 to 16 dollars.
Having some disposable income and BrickLink is a dangerous combinationā¦
Currently chasing for that elusive Gun metal Takadox headpieceā¦

The elusive Inside Tour Trans Blue 2015 Kaukau, as per my avatar. For those curious itās mask #167
This one came from the fan media days that Lego hosted a while back. I was invited to go, but unfortunately due to the timing being so last minute, I didnāt end up going- the person who went on our behalf was kind enough to send me the bionicle goods that were handed out.
Iāve also got about 24 of the trans neon green skull Scorpio masks and some of the gold Kulta mask polybags (also came from the above situation) which round out my rarest mask collection I suppose.

For 150 dollaridos, they better be in a sealed glass case.

If you check BrickLink for the Gun metal Takadox headpieces, you can see that like 9/10 are from the US and Canada, so here in Europe it was a very rare set or, like you said was the case in Germany, not sold at all. I have seen '08 Takanuva in a physical store after G1ās cancellation, sold for around 350 dollars. It is a set that Iāve always wanted, but that is a price that Iām not gonna pay.
The weird thing is that I actually saw '08 Takanuva displayed in Legoland GĆ¼nzburg - as well as Icarax - but neither of them was sold.
Through bricklink I bought the parts for Icarax and most of those for Takanuva, thoughā¦ Iām mostly only lacking the set specific parts to complete Takanuva. Which is basically everything gunmetal grey.
Lhikanās Hau, Copper Huna, honestly thatās it. Does my Infected Hau count? I slso also have also have both toa Haga masks, and Lesovikk ā mask.
@WhatCameNext I have a Gunmetal Takadox headpiece, Iād be willing to sell it too.

yes they are. 6 by 3 grid, each chunk being 2 by 4 grids for the breed, with each horizontal row alternating between 2 masks.
Edit:
this is why you go to english, kidsā¦

I donāt know if itās rare but itās a translucent glitter mask I canāt think of the name
Itās the Avohkii, and it isnāt really, to be honest; it was included in every copy of 8596 Takanuva. Still cool though.
I have the gold mask from Titan Mata Nui. Because I am totally fabulous.
Iād say so.
I own a Black Huna now, so thatās probably topping my list.
You lucky devil, Iāve been trying to get a misprint Huna for years. What other rare masks do you have?
Black noble Huna isnāt a misprint - there were two included in the Muaka & Kane-Ra set. Which means that it is 16 years old, though. I feel old nowā¦
