Makuta Ericaz Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 There hasn't really been that much talk about the Mahri sets, so why not start a discussion? |_______________________________________________________________________________________| I'm going to say I like Nuparu the best out of all the sets, simply because of his mask and overall epicness. What about you? It can be any set, toa, barraki, small or big. Any Mahri set to be honest.Note: I added the claw to Nuparu so it looks a bit better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regitnui Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 I liked Hahli's winged humanoid build, disliked her mask and flimsiness. Takadox is my favourite Barraki, because I like praying mantises. Jaller is my favourite Toa Mahri, because unlike the others his mask was actually a better design than his Inika Kanohi, and the little Hahnah crab was cute. His sword is one of the better weapon pieces. I never quite got how Hahli's claw made an effective weapon... Quote Elemental Rahi in Gen2, anyone? A write-up for an initial video for a G2 plot I really wish everyone would stop trying to play join the dots with Gen 1 and Gen 2 though,it seems there's a couple new threads everyday and often they're duplicates of already existing conversations! Or simply parallel them with a slightly new 'twist'! Gen 2 is NEW, it is NOT Gen 1 and it is NOT a continuation. Outside of the characters we already have I personally don't want to see ANY old characters return. I think it will cheapen the whole experience to those of us familiar with the original line...

The 1st Shadow Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 My favorite sets out of the entire year were Nocturn and Hydraxon. Mantax was also pretty cool.

Banana Gunz Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 I never owned any Mahri sets, but I feel like Hydraxon looks really pimpin' and Jaller has a pretty solid look for an Inika build.

VampireBohrok Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 I really like Takadox, he has a lot of character what with the hunched posture and sort of skeletal appearance. Maxilos and Spinax were great for parts, but I don't really remember what the set was like. None of the Toa really stuck with me though, I guess I liked Hahli the most because of the wings, and also because it's Hahli. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToaDraco Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Jaller was easily my favorite hero this wave and Nocturn was my favorite villain though he was sadly underused. Quote "Avengers?

Katanga Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Hydraxon and Maxilos are tied for my favorite set from '07. As far as the Toa Mahri go though, Hewkii is my favorite mostly because I really like how his launcher is connected. Quote My Bionicle Tumblr. New photos are uploaded daily!

Sybre Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 (edited) Nuparu's probably my second favorite. He's a ninja and riot policeman put together. He's a riot ninja! Lesovikk's my real favorite. He's just too awesome. Edited December 2, 2014 by Toa Varova 1 Quote mindeth the cobwebs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toa Smoke Monster Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Toa: Probably Jaller. I thought his overall look was great and his Mask looked cool too. Barracki: Carapar. I liked his character in the storyline and he had a great set IMO. Titan Set: Either Hydraxon or Nocturn. Quote Everyone is one choice away from being the bad guy in another person's story.

Toa of Ice - 1987 Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 I enjoyed Jaller the most, that vibrant colorscheme on his mask is awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Smith Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 (edited) At least as far as Toa go, I like Jaller's color scheme, mask, sword, and chest armor, but I have to admit that Nuparu's shield, armor, color scheme, and mask are awesome. Outside of the Toa, I like Nocturn a lot. 4 arms, glow-in-the-dark, lime green, what's not to love?

Nescent Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 (edited) Toa: Hewkii Mahri. I seem to be in the vast minority; I absolutely love his mask, his asymmetry is cool, the chains rock, and I dig the way he holds the Cordak blaster. He was also my first Toa Mahri, and the one I was most excited about. Barraki: Probably Ehlek, although Pridak is a close second. I like Pridak because he's so...sickening, especially his face, and his unique parts - the feet and weapons - were extremely nice pieces. I prefer Ehlek, however, because he was my first Barraki, and he's so unique with his hunched torso, close shoulders, spikes, and claws. And it's so hard to choose a favorite titan, they were all so outstanding that year...my favorites were Hydraxon and Maxilos & Spinax. I suppose Hydraxon is my favorite over all, mostly because of his mask and weapon. The only set I didn't like that year was Kongu. I wish he had a weapon, and his mask wasn't that interesting (although the fluorescent green contraption on his head was cool). And although I never owned him, Kharzani looked rather ugly IMO.

V-N Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Maxilos and Spinax is my favorite set from that year. Maxilos has such a fantastic design that one would more expect to find in a BBCC-winning MOC than in a official set. Spinax is also a great complement. Of the Toa Mahri, Hahli is my favorite. The Faxon is one of my favorite mask designs, and I like the blue and lime green color scheme. There weren't any awkward parts on her either; she was rather well streamlined compared to the other Toa Mahri. Simple, but no bare or weird limbs.

Iblis Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 As far as the sets go; Nocturn wins 2007 for me Baraki: (exempting Nocturn): it would have to be either Ehlek (positives: face/head, spindly body in an interesting way, colouration) or Carapar (positives: not spindly, nice claw, consistent colouration; ??? head looks cool-bad). Titans: (exempting Nocturn): it would be Karzahni (many pieces of interest, & monstrous). Toa Mahri: I think Hahli (+side wings, -side weapon, & the colour scheme seems eh) & Matoro (+side asymmetry that worked & weapon, -side spindly & kinda stretched) would be the ones I disliked the least. Oh & the Hydruka were way better than the Mahri Nui Matoran. Quote ~ Sophistry: A way to be antidisuncorrect. ~ In a decade you might convince maybe a small tribe of people. In a decade you might also conquer one million km2 of land, & in over a thousand years you might have over a billion followers. I like building things.

Nidhiki of the Shadows Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 2007 was a great year for sets! All of them were pretty solid. The small set line changed things up by having two well-built Matoran and two Hydruka, which had an intriguing design. The Barraki were great because of how unique each were. My personal favourite was either Mantax or Pridak, both having very different builds than the accustomed Inika/Piraka design. The Mahri themselves are also notable for trying new ideas, and while some were very successful, others were not my favourite (Hewkii Mahri comes to mind). I did really like Jaller Mahri and Matoro overall, as well as Hahli for the fins and colour scheme. Add the tall amphibious Nuparu and the short, bulky Kongu and you get one of the most diverse Toa teams ever. Even the titans were great! Hydraxon looked awesome, Nocturn was simple but excellently designed, Gadunka had a pretty complex design with a nice undersea creature look, and Maxilos and Spinax had a build I have never experienced before. Even Karzahni and Lesovikk had some very intriguing and complex designs that while I never got the chance to build, seemed very fun and engaging. Overall, my favourite Mahri-era set had to be Maxilos and Spinax. Looks menacing, very original torso design with the articulation and the awesome use of the Vezon head/Mask of Life. Really, the only problem with 2007 was the poor quality of the lime green pieces. The year as a whole for sets was extremely solid. -NotS 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bioniclepluslotr Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Matoro had those Mata feet tho. And the asymmetry was really cool too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rider Of Spiders Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 My favourite was definitely Hydraxon(Ooh, fingers. Lots and lots of fingers.) For canister sets, they would be Pridak for the articulation and Hewkii for overall decency. Quote "Onua gazes upon the Earth and sees riches.

Shadow Destroyer Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 I really liked Maxilos, and Jaller was also my favorite Toa that year.

fishers64 Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 Maxilos/Spinax is the best set in hindsight. Of the Toa, Hahli and Jaller. Of the Barraki, Takadox and Pridak.
