" This set is not really a base but more like a fort. The Taun Taun is a big highlight of this set as I wouldn't of got this set if it didn't have it. The minifigs are fun to play with but since new battle packs are available, the only special minifig is Han Solo. The snow fort is great for a battle scene and features a function where you can fling the people on it. The turret is poorly connected and constructed so the good part of it is the top part. The opening turret door doesn't open well and scares me into thinking that is might "crack". I also like the E-Web

" This is my favourite star so far and I never had a Skrall before. His colour scheme is in a nice black and lime green. The helmet is very long with a nice mold. It is nice that they brought back the old Kopaka sword but this time in black. The shoulder blades have a nice mold.
Pros:
Colour scheme
black Kopaka sword
helmet and green Skrall blades
Cons:
none
Pros:
Colour scheme
black Kopaka sword
helmet and green Skrall blades
Cons:
none
Most pieces are not new but I don't really care. The shoulder blades can restrict movement but I don't really consider that a con. It simple makes Skrall look even better. I recommend Skrall to anyone.

" Ackar is awesome. There hasn't been a red-orange colour scheme ever since 2003. The shin guards work way better on Ackar. The Fire Blade is awesome.
Pros:
recoloured Berix helmet
red-orange colour scheme.
cool legs.
Fire Blade
Cons:
none

He does get boring after a while But still a good Glatorian to get. I recomment Ackar to anyone.

" This Glatorian is awesome. I got this for 5 dollars off but I would still get it at regular price. Kiina's building experience is unique and it makes her look like a female. Many other Glatorian still have the Inika build. The armour on the arms and legs are very long. The trident is surprisingly long for her. My favourite piece is the helmet which has a good blend of colours and a cool mold.
Pros:
Helmet is awesome
Trident
Unique build
new armour
Cons:
Chest piece can shake a bit but that can be solved by adding 2 blue connector pieces.

I underestimated her because of her piece count and silver weapons. There really is nothing wrong with this set. I highly recommend buying her.

" We have all been waiting for a set like this for many years, especially for a golden Hau. I think there has only been 1 golden Hau mask in the past and that was given away at a contest. Now You can finally get a gold-colored Hau and the first Bionicle ever.
The new Tahu has a great color scheme of Mata red instead of the common crimson. Plus, he has a new mold for the Hau mask which is smaller than the original but still cool. You even get a re-colored Ackar blade His weapon seems a bit big but that's fine with me.
Pros:
new golden Hau
new fire blade
Tahu himself.
Cons:
none

This is a must get for every Bionicle fan. Every Bionicle fan must get all the Stars. Pretty soon, Bionicles will sell out and it will become difficult to find them.

" I first thought that this star isn't that good but it turned out to be better than I thought. Takanuva has a great color scheme but it would of been better if he was gold. The blades are cool and the Toa Nuva shoulder armor is a great addition. The mask is NOT the same as Makuta's hand pieces in 2003. It has a light silver color.
Pros:
re-colored Avohkii mask.
armor and golden piece
good posability
Pros:
re-colored Avohkii mask.
armor and golden piece

Cons:
head sticking out
nuva shoulder can restrict movement but it isn't really a problem

Awesome and worth your money. This is a very classic set and I always wanted Takanuva from 2003.

" This is the best set under thirty dollars. The price is reasonable and it offers a lot. If you want to build an army, this is the set to get. The jet troopers are awesome with their jetpacks and the catapult fires far. The battle droids are cool. The tank is the best part. Use 2 less tread pieces for best results. The tank works best on carpet. I dropped the tank 30 cm above and it didn't break!
Pros:
jet troopers
battle droids
tread features on tank
tank guns
price
catapult:

none

" This is an awesome purchase and plenty of fun. These blades are the same size as the ones with the original Gresh. Due to his Agori body with neither knees or elbows, it his hard to make good poses with those gigantic blades. His lime green mask is unique as well as his color scheme.
Pros:
golden piece
huge blades(the silver color is okay)
lime green helmet
figure can fit inside
Cons:
price
Pros:

Cons:

I like the original Gresh better but this one is still awesome. The complete set will be even more awesome. Unlike the Agori, the canisters can actually fit them inside so you can bring them around. Bionicles will eventually be gone and Bionicles will become expensive so please ignore the price. The price isn't high if you compare it to other themes.

Pros:
Nice color
lots of playability
ice slicer
snowflake armor
Cons:
none
I like strakk better but Gelu is still worth it. Go get him. "
