History
The Cordak Blasters were originally designed by Order of Mata Nui member Hydraxon and manufactured on Xia. Hydraxon equipped all the Maxilos robots with one, to assist in guarding the Pit. The Barraki stole many of these from Hydraxon's weapon cache. Later, the Toa Mahri discovered the blasters while exploring a cave, and took them for their own use. Karzahni also took some of them and armed a number of Manutri with them to create a strike force.
After the Toa Mahri returned to Metru Nui, Nuparu disassembled one of the ammunition pieces to see how it was made. The Matoran in the city now manufacture them for the Toa's use.
Functionality
When launched, each of the Cordak Blaster's six mini-rockets flies at high speed and releases a powerful explosion upon impact with its target. Toa can also use them to channel their Elemental Powers.
Example Usage
In Battle in the Deep! Nuparu used his Cordak Blaster to reduce a boulder to dust.

Set Information
The Cordak Blaster was released with each of the Toa Mahri, Hydraxon, and Maxilos and Spinax sets and the Toa Terrain Crawler and Toa Undersea Attack playsets. The Cordak Blaster piece features a red spring-loaded button on the back which can be pressed down to fire a red Cordak mini-rocket about five feet via air pressure. When the button is released, the barrel rotates clockwise. Each set came with at least nine of the Cordak mini-rockets, six of which could be contained in the barrel while the others were stored elsewhere on the set, such as on the characters bodies.
A life-size Cordak Blaster was also produced by the LEGO company. This, marketed as a "Toa Mahri Dart Shooter", had an arsenal of ten foam darts and was inscribed with the name of Toa Hahli.
