“If you wanna talk storyline, this is one of the six Bohrok-Kal who awoke to replace the imprisoned Bahrag queens, the 'generals' of the Bohrok swarms. The Bohrok-Kal command unique powers from the other similar Bohrok; Gahlok-Kal, for example, doesn't control water, but... More magnetism.”

“Gahlok-Kal can also be curled up into a ball. A piece included will clip onto Gahlok-Kal's lower back, and can be used to hang Gahlok-Kal from the lid of its canister when it is in its ball shape. The canister itself is modeled after an individual cell of the Bohrok Nests,... More and the hanging Gahlok-Kal represents the Bohrok-Kal's dormancy.”

About Bionicle Bohrok-Kal

The BIONICLE Bohrok-Kal was an elite team of six Bohrok that have increased powers and different Krana than the normal Bohrok. Each of the Bohrok-Kal sets had 40 pieces, and when a lever on the back was pressed, the head would go forward and backwards. When the lever was released, the head would go back.

Bohrok-Kal was introduced in 2003 and currently consists of 6 sets. As of today, 8576 Lehvak-Kal is the most valuable Bohrok-Kal set with an estimated new/factory sealed value of $189.

Like water itself, Gahlok-Kal is hard to catch. Its surface is designed to make it difficult to grasp, and it can “flow” around obstacles when need be. Gahlok-Kal is stealthy as well, able to sneak in and out of a Matoran village without ever being seen or heard.

Gahlok-Kal’s tool is a magnetic shield. This collects, controls and directs the power of magnetism from the earth – which can be employed as a defensive force field against attack, or be used as a formidable defensive weapon. The shield is also use for a variety of mundane tasks, such as shattering magnetic rock.
