The Kabaya candy company occasionally does promotions in conjunction with the LEGO Company. More than a year ago, BZPower reported on the Kabaya Turaga series. A week ago we saw the Bohrok Va Kabaya sets for the first time on eBay. I’ve been able to get a hold of them, and I have for you a full review and a scan of the instructions to make the Va combiner model.

Please post your comments, questions, or feedback about this story here.

Cool! Very neat combinder models. Though the candy looks good too! laugh.gif excl.gif
When I first saw the update in the forums, it said sweet new Bohrok Va, and my first though was "Uh oh, Lego made a new type of Va to go along with the Kal." Obviously, I was way wrong!

Lol, xccj, I was thinking the exact same thing!
Wow, that's a sweet combiner! If only I bothered to buy more than one Va set... the Kabaya Va is way cooler than the other Va combiners!

Not bad the Va kabaya is pretty cool but the lower legs look a little too bulky compared to the upper body

Heck yeah! I just ordered 2 sets. Hopefully he still has them. And yeah, I also got the Kabaya Turaga. They're cheaper at this other site. Here's the link to my post about that: Kabaya Turaga

BREAKING NEWS
My friend had a oliday in Japan and he gave me a Kabaya Lehvak Va. I got one Krana it was a strength krana. About the lollies they taste like Pez's but their really soft. I asked my friend to get me one because their are no Bohrok Va in Australia so I ended up with one. My friend said he bought one for me and the next day when he came to get himself one they were all sold out.There is one thing bad about them they do not have the picture of Lehvak + Lehvak va standing together. According to my friend on the back of the box it tells about the mighty Bohrok Va combining tongue.gif

Actually RR there are Bohrok Va in Australia, but they were a promotion in selected Woolworths stores only. wink.gif

Anyhoo on topic, I'm glad you posted instructions because the other pictures weren't really good enough to attempt to make the model with. I've wanted em since -X- found them! biggrin.gif

Those look very interesting, but I could just make that combinder set from my Bohrok Va, since I got them all any way.

Why would you buy that four sets for such a price? You can make the combiner from the normal english sets anyway. But the candy looks good!

biggrin.gif Well it looks like the the Kabaya Turaga Kaita could be in trouble, Japanese Bohrok Va Kaita against Japanese Turaga Kaita.

In a bit of unplanned synchronicity, I just finished my review of the BOHROK VA Kabaya Kaita over on Mask of Destiny. It is the third in a recent series of Kaita reviews. Come take a look!

Maybe they didnīt want to have a krana on the pictures but you can use a darkgrey krana ja to fill in the darkgrey leg and a darkgreen krana ja to fill in the darkgreen leg and you can use a red type krana to put in the back.
