“Simple but effective build and a wonderful design and color scheme (black and green!) makes this set enjoyable for me. Articulation was also excellent. The gaps in the armor placement and open colored pins were a slight problem, and although the launcher does qualify as a... More function, playability is very limited and is obviously not the main reason you would buy the set. If you're aiming for something that looks cool and is fairly easy to pose, then this is probably down your alley.”

“Tuma is really fun to build and his mask is AWESOME! Whats not awesome however is the stickers that go on his mask. But he still looks cool enough without the stickers, so thats not too bad. His sword is great and is a really good way of using the Mahri Matoran blade and a... More black Lhikan sword. The Thornax Launchers looks kinda out of place on such a big guy but it is really cool anyway and fires consistently.”
