With Gresh already been taken, I, the first person to probably own any Glatorian and/or Agori in Georgia, have taken the liberty to review our favorite little, green Agori, Tarduk.
Tarduk
Presentation
From the design of the box to the instruction manual, these are the first things you see before building the set.
The box is basically the same. Just your average Tanma box, but with a new design on both sides.
Looky, looky senator!
The back shows something completely different than the front.
Over Here!
Building
Half the fun is had building the set. How fun is it to build and how easy or challenging is it?
Well, I you have any Av-Matoran, specifically Photok, the build is basically the same. Not really worth the time though, you should finish this in 30 seconds to 2 minutes.

Set Design
Now that the set is complete, we can critique how it looks from every angle. New or interesting pieces can also be examined here.
Front
Back
The Mask/Helmet thing:
DA DA DA...
Ok, that piece kinda freaked me out. The CGI showed nothing that said about that piece being humongously huge!
Otherwise, theirs nothing else except the Iron Man head and re-colored parts.
Playability
The other half of the fun is in playing with the set. How well does the set function and is it enjoyable to play with?
Ok, this guy's great! I mean, in the story he does walk on four legs, but just like Vican, you can make him stand up. Or go monkey-man. It's your choice really.
Yiii!
Hello...
Gresh adds as a really good complement to Tarduk, and they really look good together. Plus no silver!
Final Thoughts
Once it's all said and done, how does the set stack up? Should I get it?
Pros
What's to like?
*Great colors
*New Mask/Helmet and Iron Man head
*New re-colors for mocists
*Great design
*No silver!
Cons
What's not to like?
*Too expensive
*Really reminiscent of the Av-Matoran
*Boring build
Anyway, I think you should wait until discounts, but what the heck? You should get him. You'll really enjoy him...
