Mark I think you've got them all.
However, for clarification,
Tohunga Maku does NOT wear a great mask.
She's got the Huna mask which is a Noble mask NOT a Great mask.
Hmm...maybe some gender issue here? :)

However, I would have *liked* if Lego had done this one in a Trans color
unique to the others to stay within the "rules"
Since all other Tohunga DO wear Great mask style masks.

Excuse my ignorance, but what other Tohunga's are there besides the 6 from
McDonalds & the extra guy from the CD set? At any rate, this is how I
understand those 7 to match up:
Tohunga Huki -> Toa Pohatu (orange - brown)
Tohunga Onepu -> Toa Onua (purple - black)
Tohunga Matoro -> Toa Kopaka (lt blue - white)
Tohunga Kongu -> Toa Lewa (green - green)
Tohunga Jala -> Toa Tahu (yellow - red)
Tohunga Maku -> Toa Gali (dk blue - blue)
& #7 - Tohunga Hafu -> Neutral/everyone (most likely Pohatu & Onua, as he has
colors from both)

What gets me is that the Tohunga (the villagers) have the same masks as the
Toa, 'Great' Masks but in villager colors, while the Turaga (Leaders/Priests)
have their own set of 'Noble' Masks. BTW - some of those 'Noble' Masks have
some not-so-noble abilities (but that's a different matter/rant).

And why is the Green village/Bionicles in the Jungle considered the 'Village of
Air'?

Are each of the Tohunga intended to "match up" with a Toa
and a Turaga?  If so, which one matches with which?  Some
have obvious color similarities, while others are less
clear.  And if they do match, then what about the extra
Tohunga (six from McDonalds promo, plus one more from the
CD/silver-mask promo set)?

(Sorry if this a FAQ, I admit I do not know much about the
Bionicle Universe, although I do have most of the sets
now).

Oh - did not notice that. BTW - Two of the 3 McDonalds in our neck of the woods (Belleville, IL) still has #1 - Huki, but the one on the main road is out and now has #6 - Matoro. (...) (23 years ago, 12-Sep-01, to lugnet.technic.bionicle)

(...) I think the McD's Tohunga are the named characters in the on-line game. (23 years ago, 15-Sep-01, to lugnet.technic.bionicle)
