Pohatu Master of Stone Reviews
BIONICLEsector01
“Aesthetically, the new Pohatu looks really cool. Lego have definitely managed to raise the bar for the typically under-performing brown set. That being said, there are still better Toa out there, in my opinion.”
Eurobricks
“There's a lot to take in here- Dark orange, boomerangs, trans neon green bones, and of course the change to a more normal geared torso. He's the smallest Toa, and also totals to a measly 66 piece- 1 less than the Protector of Stone. With that said, he's one of the least... More cluttered of the new Toa. I'm still not sure entirely how I feel about him.”
BZPower
“Having Pohatu here is really cool. Not just because Bionicle is back, and not just because brown is back, but because he is a really awesome constraction set. He has fighting power through strength and some neat weapons. His friends can help protect him and team up. His foe... More can cause havoc and who knows what else.”
