Favourite rahi types!

Recommended Posts

I love doing surveys about Bionicle, so today I chose to do favourite rahi! Personally I really like the Tarakava and the Mana-ko, but I'd like to hear what you like!

 

Rahi:

 

Tarakava Ash bear Nui-Rama Nui-jaga Ussal crab

 

Mana-ko Manas Bohrok Bohrok-va

 

Those are your options to chose from, have a nice day!

 

P.S. please comment your choice!

Bohrok and Bohrok Va aren't really "Rahi" per say, they're basically insectoid robots, with a very specific function and purpose, Rahi are wildlife, not the same thing.

 

Anyway, the Nui-Jaga I've always liked, because Giant Scorpions, and the Ussal Crabs are just a neat spin on domesticated animals. We humans never domesticated crabs, but the Matoran did, and it gave them one of their most loyal animal companions.

 

So cute :D

Tarakava: Giant aquatic lizards that ambush their prey from below the surface.

 

Besides that, they just look cool.

I never owned any of the 2001 Rahi, but of all of them I liked the Muaka and Kane-Ra set. I always found it odd that they made a "tiger" and a "bull" so similar set wise, but they looked cool lol

 

Other than that, going slightly away from the choices you picked, the best I think was the Kardas Dragon. :D Sure it was a creation of the Mask of Life, but it still counts as a Rahi lol, and hey, who wouldn't like their own personal dragon that never runs out of energy to throw at your enemies? ;)

I liked the Nui Rama, for it's looks, pieces, and function. All of the '01 Rahi had brilliant functions, but for some reason the Nui Rama were my favorite.

 

I also like the Hapaka. It's so adorable! I like to picture it something like a mini elephant, which does make sense with how it is built.

The Nui-Jaga are pretty awesome, as are the Muaka, Kane-Ra, and Nui-Rama. However, they are the only Rahi listed that I don't have the sets of (excluding the Ash Bear, which doesn't have a set form), so I'm probably biased towards them. :P

Oooh definitely the Manas, those were like, the final mini-bosses before confronting Makuta. The Toa had to go Kaita on them 'cause they were so tough! Then later when Karzhani used them as his personal guards, like, come on, you know they're pretty awesome :D

I was disappointed that Guuko birds weren't on your list 'cause they are pretty swell too.

Oh! I forgot about the Kinloka... not exactly a set, but you could build it using the Metru Nui Matoran, and it is rather fun thinking them going through the city like a plague of locust, eating anything in sight lol, now that would be a menace to be reckoned with. ;)

I pick Kahu- a giant bird whose wings glow with an awesome green light and can be ridden by intelligent beings is always pretty darn cool!

 

But if I have to pick one of the above, Ussal Crab is the winner to me! (Can we replace Bohrok/Bohrok Va with Gukko breeds?)

Of those listed, it'd be a toss-up between Nui-Rama and Nui Jaga. Both are awesome sets and awesome(if somewhat terrifying) Rahi.

 

My personal all-time favorite Rahi would have to be the Visorak, though. So much variety within the species, leaving a load of customization options for making your own spiders. Not to mention, they're pretty cool(if, once again, frightening) Rahi in general. How can you go wrong with a giant, highly intelligent spider?

I'd have to go with the Tarakava, though I also liked the Kane-Ra a lot. I used to enjoy the gear functions that the rahi, and in fact all the sets, had in the early years. By the way, Nocturn, you can create polls in a more organized format as a premier member; just thought that you might want to know that, since you're already paying for your membership.

Gotta be the Ussal Crab its up there with my favourite sets :D its easily got the best movement function (aka the legs move :DDD) and it was one of the main modes of transport in Metru Nui, Mata Nui and possible Artahkah, Artahka? I really don't know how to spell it XD

If I could choose one off the list it would have to be Muaka and Kane Ra because they are totally awesome builds and in fact inspired me to create creature / muntant / monster mocs like my not yet revealed on BZP moc Karsuran. Btw first post since I joined :P Oops XD I made this a quote... this is not copied I wrote it all today XD

Hey nocturn,

 

It seems, from the options you've given, that this would work well as a poll. Premier Members have the option to create polls in most forums.

If you did not mean to start one, that's fine! But if you did and would like a poll in this topic, please let me know so I can add one.

 

Thanks!
