Editorial Review

The Bohrok, a race consisting of six insectlike species that use elemental powers, add to the mythological story of the Bionicles. The Tahnok are the Fire Bohrok, who can melt anything they touch. This swarm is impulsive, prefers to fight in groups, and strikes quickly and methodically. This 40-piece Bionicle kit uses a system of ball-and-socket joints, pegs, gears, and machinelike body parts for assembly. The illustrated instructions are easy to follow, and the black, red, and orange pieces snap together without difficulty. A lever just behind the back of the head can be pressed to make the top dome lunge forward--a simple but incredibly cool effect. The completed Tahnok stands solidly on its own, offers a variety of offensive or defensive poses, and can be suspended in its container when not in battle. --Pam Lauer

This BIONICLE is awesome.I love it,it has a pair of flame like hands.I like the way the head strikes out when you press something at the back,also when you press the blue shaped like fangs the mask will fly out.It can also roll into a ball.It is durable because once i accidently dropped it & a piece did not even came off.I gave it 5 stars cause it teaches me how gears work together to make something move.I reccomend this toy to anyone who loves lego & bionicle.Well,thats all i've to say. Hope that this review had helped ya.SSSEEEEEEEEEEEYYYYYYAAAA!!!!!

It is said the Bohrok sleep an ETERNAL sleep waiting to HATCH.So the Tahnok are powerful but each Bohrok carries WITHIN it a KRANA. Their greatest STRENGTH is ALSO their greatest WEAKNESS. THESE then are the SWARMS of the BOHROK. Pahrak would turn the mountains to crumbling stone, then Nuhvok lurk below, and the treacherous Gahlok are masters of the flood tide. The fiery Tahnok are capable of melting through any substance. Kohrak shoot their icy blasts, and most dangerous of all, is Lehvak whose acid venom can dissolve even solid rock. So lock up the kids because the BOHROK HAVE HATCHED!
