“Toa Lewa Nuva(Adaptive Armor) is one of the most awesome sets of 2008. He has a long electrifying sword along with two rocket boosters on his arms. I must complain that his legs are extremely thin. The Midak Skyblaster is not really such a big deal as his arms support its... More weight. Combined with Tanma is much better for playability. Anyways 5/5, get this set in anyway you can.”
