“Each model was a different color and the color matched a themed name and personality. Many models also had a unique printed robotic "face". Articulation of the limbs was accomplished with large ball joints held in position with friction. The single mechanical function in... More each set tended to be a geared articulation point in the middle of the body.”

“Scuba from 1999 features simple yet effective design elements with its blue and yellow color scheme, and a cool visor and harpoon that add to its diver-like appearance. The set includes a disc-launching arm and useful pieces found in other Technic and Bionicle sets.”
