The Bahrag Twins...


Bundalings

422 views

They finally got here today, after 16 business days.

They're pretty cool, despite the fact that they don't work they way I thought they would.

While they look much cooler than Muaka and Kane Ra, they don't work nearly as well.

At the end of their lunge, they're mouths don't snap shut. That was a disappointment. Also, they're teeth can't grip the target on they're chests. Try as I might, I cannot pull the darn thing out.
><

All faults aside, (and they all most of them happen to be in the mechanism) they look really cool.

They are surprisingly small. About as tall as a Rahkshi. (or half a mask taller than a Mata)

One more flaw: From head on they're faces are so wide it's unseemly.

But taking all this into account, they are still quite cool, and they contain many wonderful MOCing parts.

Muaka > Bahrag

 

Though the function worked fine for me....

Pff. Bahrag own the Muaka *owns both*.

 

And the mechanism works fine for me.

I own both as well, and I think we agree.

 

Out of curiosity, just how do they work? Do they're mouths snap shut? Perhaps I built them wrong...

...They seem much taller than that.

Don't they? Well, mine are crouching (they look better that way), but when they're legs are fully extended they're about a mask-and-a-half taller than a Rahkshi, and two masks taller than a Mata.

*Wants Nui Jaga ao badly*

 

Bahrag<Boxor

What.

Edit @ Ecto: Where, and for how much?

They're mouths should just snap shut, yes. It's possible that a piece is off (as has happened on my Kane-Ra); you could try dismantling then rebuilding them.

 

I've also slightly modified mine to function even without the Pin, so maybe it's my tamperings ^^;

Hmm... I thought since I built them seperately, at least one would work.

 

I guess I'll try to do the gears differently later. I really don't see where I went off...

Nivawk>All. If you don't have Nivawk, buy him :D

Way better than the Bahrag, IMO. My friend has them, they're sorta a waste of money (no offense, Ms. Gahdok)

Spiffiness.

 

I, personally, never got the Bahrag sets, but I wanted them sooo bad. If only I had the money, and didn't buy two extra Bohrok of the same kind...

 

But yeah, they seem to be quite interesting. Does it hurt if you make them bite you? Because it's kinda hard for them to rival Muaka/ Kane Ra if they don't leave visible marks when they bite you.

I don't have a Muaka, so I can't compare to that, but I think they worked just fine. The head should snap shut... the gears in the back of the head and the neck should lock together as the next extends, but past a point the gears become unlocked and the rubber band snaps the upper jaw down on the lower jaw. True, it doesn't always work, but it should most of the time.

 

And, yes, disabling them is very troublesome. But the big thing there was the rubber band holding a piece up... if your rubber bands are off, that might upset the whole functionality. I know the Bahrag aren't as complicated as the Boxer, but if one thing is off the whole thing will be off.

 

And what they lack in height they make up in width (just don't tell that to other queens). And they are filled with great MOCing pieces... I'm sure that's where half my useful MOCing pieces come from.

 

Edit, Oh, and here's this.

If you have a problem with maj, then you're missing out on a good thing. :P

I have Nivawk, and he's nothing special, IMO. I think you're the only Bionicle fan who thinks that's the best set. Krekka is much better out of that line, and that's my least favorite series of Titans. :blink:

Spiffiness.

I can't get they're mouth to close at the end of the lunge, so I don't know.

I still can't get their mouths to work... I'll try rebuilding one later.

 

Yes... they are very long and wide. And generally awesome.

ORLY? I actually liked Nidhiki more than Krekka...

I guess it's all random taste differences, that was my favorite titan year~♪

Ultimate Dume owns all the 04 Titans.

 

Edit: O_o well then... I accidentally typed a p instead of an o, I swear...

Eh, Nivawk's legs come into pieces too much.

 

Can a Bahrag pick up a MOLtoran with her jaws?

I'm sure they can. Haven't tried.

In an auction topic, hopefully for $60.00

 

=D

Yay! That's about what I got mine for.

 

Hey everybody, I got the Bahrag to work! I found I just wasn't using enough force. Hoorah!

*must get Bahrag*

 

I always thought they would be taller...

 

At least I have the Tarakava and the Nui-Rama...

 

~KK:SE~©

I don't have either of those... but at least I have Muaka and Kane Ra and the Manas.

 

*wants Tarakava*
