“It comes with Ignika, his Life Sword, skyboard, and his Midak Skyblaster, with four Midak Spheres. He has a connector on his back to combine with a Matoran, though this is just to advertise the connection feature, and was never shown in the story.”

Brickset
“Another great warrior type set for Bionicle. His Skyboard is awsome and has fold-out wings on the side. Also it comes with the Mask of Life which is a little disapointing because you have to use the red axle to conect it to the face and it falls off a lot when playing. If... More you (like myself) are a Bionicle Nerd or a Collecter/Completist, then you definatly need this set!”
