Price: 7.99$, 6,33 Euro
Pieces: 19
Year of release: 2010
The Canister
Front
Shows our Hero standing in a neat pose, as well as his name written in a scribbly style, similar to the one that the Piraka had. A Bionicle logo is present on there as well,to show that this uses the same system and such as Bionicle.
Side
Shows a silhouttte image of him, as well as his name. The other side doesnt have any of this on it.
Back
Shows him facing off against Corroder. Also, his head is shown to give a scale chart.
Lid
Very similar to the star's lids.

Parts
Look at them all! Lets inspect them more closely.
Old Parts
Yes, only 2 old parts! Well 3 if you count the other hand. The black socket pieces are not shown here because they are modified to not break. A slight visual chance near the socket is all really, but they are super tight and hold up very well.
Feet
The new feet aren't bad, they have thuseters on the bottom. Only thing I find strange is the large ark in the center of them.
Leg armor
The Lego armor. Really nice and detailed,and they give the figure a look that is very different than Bionicle.
Torso Bits
A new torso and chest armor. The new torso is very MOCable, as it has plenty of connection points.
Weapons and Core
The weapons are nice looing electro pieces,that can be held seperatly or together in his hand to cover it completely. He can also use them like a staff,so they are quite versital. Also, his HERO Core is a trans yellow, which I find odd because his weapon and glatorian head are Neon Green.
Mask
I like the mask a lot more than I thought I would, its actually possible to pull it off as being sinister.
Limbs
The limbs are very nice in comparison to our normal 90 degree av-toran limbs. Much easier to pose them. They also have some more useful connection points along the sides.
Buliding
Start
Oh sweet Mata Nui, he's naked AND headless!
Adding armor
Starting to bulk up.
Finished
Finished Set
Poses
Very flexible design and he can show some more natural looking posed than the Bionicle figures could.
Close Up
Although it is slightly asymetrical, it looks far better than, say, the Mahri masks.
Bonus Images
Who will win?
This also shows as a quick size comparison between your standard Agori build figure.
Pwned
Overall, this figure is a great step forwards for a Bioncile replacement line. He is very nice visually, and his articulation and mass amount of new pieces make it worth any Bionicle fan to give these guys a try. Personally I would recommend picking up a Rookie team member as opposed to an Alpha team member for your first set,as these guys don't have the horrid weapon arms.
Colors scheme- 9/10 (The trans yellow hero core looks very out of place on him.)
Parts- 9/10 (I still knock one off for him having only 19 parts, but the amount of new ones really makes up for it)
Design- 10/10 (Fantastic Looking)
Articulation- 8/10 (A lack of knees and elbows is still a major issue, especially since we saw so many of the limbs bent in the images of these guys.
Quality- 9/10 (The silver is still peraly, which I dislike.)
Overall: 45/50 Excellent
As always, questions,comments, and pic requests welcome!
