I find this limited edition Krana somewhat gimmicky.
Looks like Lego found a way to get people to buy the Bohrok-Kal. -------------------- #######: www.#######.com/rzetlin

I'm sorry...I just don't like this idea.
The Kal are just recolored Bohrok, and the Silver Krana just seem like a way to get people to buy Kal with no remorse. If you think about it....this would've worked better with the original Bohrok. Bohrok: Swarms. Multiple Bohrok of one type. Therefore you can easily justify buying more than one Tahnok. Kal: 6. Only 6. So really...you'd defeat the idea of the Kal (6 Reasons To Hide) by buying more than one of each Kal looking for a silver Krana. Sorry...I'm not biting on this one. And if it's anything like other promotions I"ve seen...good luck finding one. It looks like LEGO is handing out tons of these Special Krana. Most likely the 72 Sterling Silver ones have already been found. Or handed out.... -------------------- |

Not a chance. They wil be released in proportion with the production of the Kal. None of the silvers were given away yet, and there were only 20 or so White Metal Krana Kal given away at Toy Fair. |

Ho man do I want one of those! I'll have to start looking for 'em at my Wal*Mart!
 I phoned Lego about 'em, and they said they hadn't even seen them before. And that Lego just shipped them right out.  -KM- -------------------- |

Thank goodness we now know how the special Krana-kal will be packaged, with a card, velvet bag and everything... no more "I think got a silver krana!" topics. If you got one, you would have no doubts about it.

Ooooooohhhhh! Interesting! Shaking? Well that might work... But theres still LOOKING AT THE BOTTOM. As in, the black shape between the CD and the instructions. Sooo... 3 OF THE 6 REASONS TO GET BOHROK KAL!
1) Silver / metal Krana 2) Some of the pecies would work for MOCs 3) Mini- CDs -------------------- |

Hmm...these are going to be harder to get than I thought...I know its a little off topic, but if anyone gets one I'll pay quite a lot for one with a collector's Card!
 I don't really mind if it is just a scam, if it's a Bionicle collectable-I'm there!  I hope I am lucky enough to get one in a Bohrok Kal so I don't have to trade for one-methinks they may end up rather expensive.

the only effect this is going to have is that you will spend more time in the store
if they were in mask packs it would be easier beacause they are so mutch heavier -------------------- if you are interested in skateboards go here

Tiny question: is this a US only action, or is it world-wide? Nonetheless, if I spot one, I'm bying a Kal, no matter how much I dislike them. A collector must abide by the collecting rules, eh?

Hm, I'll have to wait until they come out in swarms, not just 2 or 3 Lehvak-Kal that disappear after 15 minutes have gone by...
Did B-rex find it, or was it another member? --------------------   |

Ppl in UK like me cant get sterling silver ones. its sad.
 i emailed lego, and thiss is what they said... (ahem)Dear BIONICLE Fan ! Many thanks for contacting LEGO® Direct. We are delighted that you are so keen on the BIONICLE series! Yes, it can seem unfair, that certain items are only available in some parts of the world. However, we will get Matoran figures this spring ! They are even better ones than the US-version from last year... We already have BIONICLE card games though and you should also find the Power Pack in certain stores (all these were released in Europe as well as in the USA). Whether LEGOLAND will do special rides is not yet certain, but do you know about the film The Mask Of Light, which will come out on video this autumn? Regards, Alva Hobom LEGO Direct - Europe and i wont tell ya what i said...unless u wanna know... -------------------- |

Ugh... I'm getting tired of this... First, the McMatoran aren't released in Europe, then we Belgians didn't get Kanohi Nuva packs (at least not where I live), and now this... As if the new Matoran (a set that will be released world-wide) could make me jump up and down with joy. I mean, Belgian kids once built the highest Lego tower ever, and we are still passed over time and time again. Sorry for the rant, but it seems the only way I can get my hands on something valuable is because of a misprint or by paying money for it over the internet. -------------------- [img]http://www.majhost.com/gallery/Schizo-Kaita/Stuff/modsmacksig.jpg[/img]

I was reading the new report and it says the cd hides the bag and card, but actually if you are like me you can see them. I just go to a store that has Bohrok or the Kal and shake the canisters till I can see the Krana, that is how I got swarm commander Krana in all of my sets. So far that has been the case with my 4 Bohrok-Kal. I hope I can find a special krana in either the Pahrak-Kal, or the Gahlok-Kal.

Even if you can't see the bags, you can just shake the canister, and if after a while you can't see a krana, then you can just assume that it is one of them.
And Biotoa64 please don't double post, (postin 2 or more times in a row) that is against the rules, and we here at BZP don't want to see you get in trouble.

I am not buying the bohrok kal anyway but shouldn't the silver and metal krana be in the extra krana kal packs as well. Correct me if I'm wrong. |
