    LEGO BIONICLE (Toa Mata) - Gali Review

    Written by (AFOL , rhodium-rated reviewer) in Germany,

    This is a nice figure to have and it's fun to play with as well.

    Box/Instructions

    The instruction has 32 pages and there're no mistakes in it.

    Parts

    This set has 35 pieces and it was 7 USD when it was on sale. That means that the price per piece ratio was 20 cents per piece which is a really good value for a figure like this.

    The build

    The build is very nice and easy and we also don't get any stickers to worry about.

    The completed model


    The arms, the legs and the feet can be moved. On the back of the torso is a gear which you can use to move both arms full 360°. I really like the design of this figure and I also like the mask which comes with this set.

    Summary

    All in all this set is an great set and I would HIGHLY recommend you to get this. You can find this set on eBay, BrickLink and Amazon for sure. Here is the link where you can check out the full gallery I made for this set on my website: http://www.klokriecher.de

    Toa Gali Mata

    Written by (TFOL , silver-rated reviewer) in United States,

    Toa Gali Mata is super cool. This is probably her best of her three forms.

    To star, Gali has an oober cool mask. Where her eyes are it is see-through blue, so that looks really nice. Her function is swinging her claw-like weapons up and down with the turning of a gear in the back. She has the original limbs and feet like all the Toa Mata, but in dark and light blue. Like all the early Toa, the heads can't move, so that limits a little bit of playabilty.

    Overall, a good Toa. I do enjoy her, but shes not the best Toa Mata. I still recommend you try to get her off ebay for under $10.

    8/10.

  • What a great start!

    Written by (Unspecified , bronze-rated reviewer) in United States,

    I just got Gali yesterday from Bricklink (she even included the mini poster and instructions), and I must say I'm impressed with BIONICLE's beginning. First of all, I ordered Gali because she's been on my want list for almost six years now, and I'm glad I finally have her, and she has exceeded my expectations. Her hooks and feet are darker blue than I thought from the picture; they're about the same color blue as the torso, if you have Gali Nuva (2003). There are also a few MOCing pieces, like the hooks and maybe the head, although I won't dare try to take pieces from Gali. She is surprisingly posable, even though she has minimal ball joints. Playability is almost off the chart.

    Pros:

    -Playable

    -Posable

    -Hooks!

    -Gear system!

    -Good ole Kanohi Kaukau (I have three in my collection now)

    -One of the original BIONICLEs

    Cons:

    -Compared to newer sets, Gali doesn't have enough ball joints for posing and playing purposes, but seeing as this is a collector's item, and it's eight years old, who cares???

    Overall, 5/5. Great set, worth the $$$, and definitely a must-have!

  • Gali rocks!

    Written by (Unspecified , rhodium-rated reviewer) in {Unknown},

    Gali Olda. I loved her. Yea, she's a girl. And of course, girls have to rule, since there are precious few in the saga. And then there's the Kaukau, the only trans-color mask in the whole thing, with the exception of the clear Avohkii, which wasn't even in the storyline (not that it wasn't cool though!) The hooks are too cool. And if you don't like the color of the hooks, you can get a different set with hooks and attach those (there's 8 or 9 colors you know.) Overall, I can only say wow. Just wow.
