2008 Part 1 - Nuva
Hmm.
As sets, the Nuva are pretty much awesome. Kopaka's wings are quite pleasant, his mask looks sufficiently techno, and he has nice legs. ( ) His arms disappoint me; they would be far better shorter. The shorter double socket and, say, Metru legs would look far more proportionate, in my humble opinion. But still, four Piraka legs...yay! But bley? Is that good? Not necessarily, no.
Lewa, Lewa, what happened to you? Nice green mask? Check. Insane serrated (love that word!) blade? Check. Not terribly keen on the colour scheme - more bley. Unfortunate. And torso could be more custom.
Pohatu rocks (no pun intended (or maybe it was)). Orange and bley is a nice combination, and his Vahi-style mask looks awesome. Add transforming claws and you've got something pretty excellent. He wants orange on his chest though, it's too bland and bley.
Launchers look almost interesting, but nothing spectacular.
As characters, I'm terribly disappointed that they bear next to no resemblance to the originals, but I can learn to live with them.
Possibly.
It depends how expensive they are.
