“The figure is nice, the colors are iffy, but do-able. The design is good, except for the shoulder armor. And the price is bad for 52 parts, but the figure is still nice. The playability is fun, he can do so much! Shoot a bird, wipe his... car... with a Shamwow, or attack a... More cat, he can do it all!”

“Mata Nui is a pretty even set. Though there are cons, they are pretty minor, and the pros are pretty cool. In short, this set's pretty close to being legen- wait for it, and I hope you're not lactose intolerant, because it's DAIRY!”
