A Shipment of Pirakas


Manducus

So last Saturday, I ordered another lot of Bionicles. This time it was around $29.99 for five of the Pirakas, excluding Hakann, with free shipping. The shipment was expected to land on my doorstep on Friday, but managed to get here on Wednesday instead.

 

A thing that caught my eye when I was going through the box's contents was this little notecard

That was awfully nice of the sender to include a little thank you note.

 

The back only showed my address and long with the sender's and the sets include with the package. The 95% represents how completed the figures are.

 

I obviously had to censor out our addresses and the sender's name. I don't trust y'all well enough to stalk me.

 

 

On a side note, a garbage bag was used to store the figures inside of the box and some of the figures were also inside of another bag.

 

Reidak was in the large Ziploc bag while Vezok was crammed into that tiny Ziploc baggy. The container on top of the bags contained some bubble wrap and a regular Zamor Sphere.

And here are some miscellaneous parts

Oddly enough, the shipment came with Hakann's and Irnakk's spine (the sender most likely got set 8626), Hahli's wing, and only two Zamor Spheres.

 

 

All of the Piraka below has seen a fair share of combat over the years. For most of the figures, they came with part 6558 instead of 32054.

 

 

Here's Zaktan with a missing hand and his right thigh armour, including part 2780.

Reidak came intact aside from his buzz saw. His right hand is also a newer mold.

Thok is missing a hand.

Avak is missing his right thigh's armour and the axle through his skull is a bit too long.

And lastly, Vezok right shoulder spine connector bit is missing.

Luckily, I can improvise and replace most of the broken and missing parts, including Vezok's head spine.

 

For $30 for this lot, this was a nice steal, considering that a lone Piraka would've been auctioned off around $15ish on eBay.
