The Shadowplayer Show is a BIONICLE-based stop-motion sketch comedy series created by Syp The Mighty. The title of this series comes from Shadowplayer, one of Syp The Mighty's oldest BIONICLE characters who makes her debut in its second episode. Despite this, Shadowplayer is not a major character as the series never commits to a consistent setting or plot.

This series also introduced Zeta prior to her debut in Misguided, with later episodes including characters from that series, though it remains non-canonical to it.

Trivia

• Though canonical characters from the BIONICLE toyline have appeared this series, it primarily features original characters via custom builds.
• While Syp The Mighty quietly shelved the series in 2014, with Stress being a re-release from that year in 2020 before making Morning in 2021. She intends to make a new short featuring Shadowplayer when she has time, with a script already largely written, after she wraps up other projects.
