Muaka and Kane-Ra are by far my favorite Rahi(Monsters). They can extend their necks abots four inches. It sometimes chomps up the toa, but mostly sends him or her flying. Very fun to do. Unlike most of the other Rahi, these ones seem to be designed specifically for attacking each other.(Which makes the Muaka and Kane-Ra mask battle funner) They bite at the perfect level to snap off the others mask. They are pretty durable, but when you take off the mask on their shoulders, their arms fall off! However the mask holder attachen onto the masks better than others.Plus Muaka comes with special infected masks! In short, a very good buy.

Muaka and Kane-Ra are by far the biggest Rahi, that is, lenghtwise, Tarakava beats it in height. Anyway, Muaka and Kane-Ra are designed to disable each other. Using their extendable necks, which by the way, can extend about 4 inches! If one were to get a hold of the other's mask, they have the oppurtunity to pull the stem out that it sits on, and make them lose an arm. Don't worry, the arm is VERY simple to put back on. Muaka and Kane-Ra also have a single tread, which allows them to ride on smooth surfaces. (I tried it on my bed and carpet which didn't work, but I already suspected that to happen.) Overall this is a great gift for kids who are really into the Bionicle series.

I own a few bionicles now and so far Mukata and Kani-Ra are my favorite. It took about 1 day to build Mukata, and about 2 hrs. to build Kani-Ra. The first time I put Mukata together, he wasn't extending his neck properly. I had to go back and rework him. If you don't use the extra pieces to hold the masks in place the masks and arms will fall off. Another good think is that Mukata comes with the rare infected mask. (Highly Collectable!!!) Mukata resembles a tiger and Kani-Ra, a bull. Their awesome. I found out that if you don't take off a certain part below Kani-Ra's head his mouth will not open. The directions say to put this piece on, but I didn't because his month would not open. The only bad thing I can say, is I was missing some small pieces, but I was able to get them from some extra pieces I had from another bionicle (Nuju). These toys were great fun and made a great Christmas gift. Hope they make more.

As the legend continues more and more monsters (or Rahi) continue
to terrorize the villages of Mata Nui. As always the Toa have been able to defeat these vile creatures by removing the masks the Rahi wear and had the choice of taming them. These new monsters, Muaka and Kane-Ra, are capable of new powers such as from far away they can extend their heads to reach certain heights or for suprise attacks. So when the Toa ever encounter these strange but powerful creatures, they should be warned, there up for a tough battle!

(There has been a mistake in all of the reviews.The tiger is called Kane-Ra and the bull is called Muaka,But this is not the point.)These must be the strongest rahi because of their extendable necks.They can attack other bionicle from a long distance which is a good thing.I have discoverd that if you build the combination of Muaka and Kane-Ra (I call this Muaka-Ra) you still can build another creature,it looks lika a Turtle.If you attack a toa or bohrok etc...,Even if you dont get the head locked in the jaws you can still grab another part of the body then throw it in mid air and as it is flying down if you get the timing right you can just knock it forward which is sure to knock the mask off.This is worth the money.

The toy is very fun to play with. When you build this toy it can be very complicated. If you are a great builder you can build this. But when it is finished you can start playing with it and it is great. It is a very great toy because it looks cool. It is good to play with other types of Bionicles with this bionicle. I would recommend this toy to Bionicle fans.

a fun toy with lots of options. you can combine it with other bionicle toys and make something even cooler! a fun and ingenius way to for LEGO Inc to make money. it worked on me obviously! have fun with this toy! its great, and ever lasting!

Kane-Ra and Muaka are some of the strongest Rahi there are. When you squeeze their stomach, their head extends and their mouths open then snap shut. When you let go, their head comes back. They use this motion to grab their opponent's mask(s). When you pull their masks out their arms fall off. When you are done battling you just put the arm and the mask back on. The mask is connected to a sort of pole that acts like a stopper keeping the arm from falling off until pulled out. They are at an advantage against other Bionicle toys because their heads extend. They also come with instructions on how to make a bigger model that is the Kane-Ra and Muaka combined. It is definitely worth the amount of money it costs.

It's LEGO... It's BIONICLE... It's FUN

Educational this toy is in gears, levers, etc but also, learning about Mäori (Easter Island and other Pacific island legends) that is if your child(or yourself) is willing to find the infomation that is out there and how BIONICLE was based on it-
