This will be a part by part review of a truly amazing set.
1: Sarda
Sarda is the red Matoran. He has Toa Metru Vakama's mask, a silver Toa Mata Onua claw and two of Mantax's claws, the latter looking sort of strange but still cool.. His build is the same as Defilak and Dekar, apart from the feet. The Hordika chest plate is great, and the Toa Inika feet add a nice touch to Sarda, seeing as Matoran feet are usually quite boring. Although, Idris has Toa Metru of Earth(black colour) Whenua's mask but in blue, whereas Sarda's was red on Toa Metru Vakama. I think that they could have had Toa Metru Onewa's mask in red, but otherwise Sarda is a good Matoran.
Sarda: 4/5
2: Idris
Idris is the blue Matoran. He has Toa Metru Whenua's mask, but in blue, a silver Toa Mata Onua claw and a Solek sword with fang-hilt. The feet are great and the Hordika chest plate looks good on the Mahri Matoran. He is built using exactly the same pieces in exactly the same places as all the other Mahri Matoran, but with different colours. Unlike Dekar, Defilak and Sarda, Idris's leg connectors are transperent blue instead of dark grey. In my opinion Idris is the better of the two Matoran.
Idris: 5/5
3: The Trap
The trap function is really well and it stands up straight when placed on the ground. It securely holds Karzahni when he is put in it and it is a really neat little addition to the set, seeing as most Titan sets only come with the Titan. The trap is really cool in my opinion.
The Trap: 5/5
4: Karzahni
Karzahni is a mutated being, once the ruler of the realm Karzahni. and he certainly looks mutated to me. His head has finally made Pridak's size 17 feet look good: coloured green and with two transperant red fangs as eyes on top. Karzahni's head also has two horns, in silver, which just add that little bit of awesomeness to him. The Carapar chest-plate/Mantax shoulder-pads are used as Karzahni's chest-plate and shoulder-pads, and they look amazing in green. Toa Vakama Hordika heads are used as leg-pads and Mantax's feet in green are Karzahni's feet. Ehlek's heads are Karzahni's hands, with a dark green horn in each eyehole, like fingers. The Vezon chains look cool and are his primary weapons. Vezon's cape is also used as Karzahni's cape and that looks quite cool too. Two of Takdox's blades are on his chest as... well I actually don't know what they are. But they still look cool on him. The squid launcher however, as I've said in previous reviews, sucks. It can't even fire properly, and from what I've read on Brickset it seems that almost everyone agrees with me. But you can just take it off and so it's fine.
Karzahni: 5/5
In this set there are lots of re-coloured pieces and they have re-used lots of awesome pieces. The Matoran and the trap add extra awesomeness to an already awesome Bionicle.
