Rahkshi Lerahk Reviews
Brickipedia
“Lerahk is one of the six original Rahkshi types released. In the BIONICLE universe, they have power over poison, and their staffs had to touch its target in order for it to have an effect, unlike most Rahkshi's staffs. Besides a Lerahk itself, the set comes with the Staff of... More Poison and a green Kraata. If the set was bought at Wal Mart during a limited time offer, instead of coming with its usual green Kraata, it came with a Shadow Kraata instead. They are not the smartest of the Rahkshi, but they are still strong, fast and cunning and their power is enough to destroy things with ease.”

“The green Bionicles have a track record of being the best ones. (Matau, Matau Hordika, Ehlek, Orkahm.) Lerahk's staff ends are the coolest there are, and it's a good idea to have all the Rahksi because of the collectible kraata. (Which, by the way, can attach to the faces of... More Toa and Matoran just as well as the krana that come with the Bohrok and Bohrok-Kal.)”

“Some later Lerahk sets include one of the six variations of Shadow Kraata instead of the original Kraata. This limited edition set was available exclusively at Target stores.”

Rahkshi was introduced in 2003 and currently consists of 6 sets. As of today,
8587 Rahkshi Panrahk is the most valuable Rahkshi set with an estimated new/factory sealed value of $93.
