Giga Metroid99

Well, the reason I bought it wasn't that strange, but the circumstances were, somewhat. It was 2003 and I wanted to get Takanuva. So I put aside the money I had and had my dad take me to Toys R Us. When we got there, they were all sold out of Takanuva. So I was digging through the shelf to see if there was one somewhere at the back. I didn't find any, but I did randomly find a slightly banged up Nui-Rama set. I didn't have any of the Rahi sets, and I knew that it was doubtful I would find any ever again outside of a yard sale or somewhere online, so I got that since I had the chance. I still have no idea why it was there in late 2003 in the first place. I can only guess it got lost somewhere in the storage room and they had just found it.

Mine was Gali Mata. I went to Toys R Us with my dad to get a present for my friend's birthday. I'd heard about the new Bionicle sets that had come out a couple of months before, and I knew he was obsessed with Lego, so I decided to get one of those for him. Literally the only canister sets left on the shelves were two Galis. I got one for him, and my dad decided to get the other one for me just because. It was a good thing it was Gali that was left, because he got all of the other Toa except Pohatu from other people who went to the party.
