Just like in Power Rangers!
The BIONICLE theme totally reminds me of the Power Rangers series (I hope Lego will do some Power Rangers sets soon!!). Kalmah has 3 eyes and his face looks really evil. The Squid launcher, the squid and the other weapon (the string or something) and the black 'hair' are made out of rubber. The instruction has no mistakes and I didn't find any missing pieces in this set.
The face of that guy reminds me of one guy of the 'Power Rangers Mystic Force' who had a fish instead of the black 'hair'.
Positive:- No stickers
- He looks really attractive - and evil ;-)
Negative:- Squid launcher doesn't really shoot :-(
All in all it's a great set to get and I would highly recommend you to get this model. You can find this set on eBay, BrickLink and Amazon for sure. Here is the link where you can check out the full galery I made for this set on my website: http://www.klokriecher.de

So detailed...
If a bionicle fan saw the 1st bionicle, they would probably cry. This set is not even close to the old sets that i have. I see that they have amny new colors/masks and even anew missile launcher! I am amazed that lego could transform a popular theme over time into something that blows old collecters away!

It isn't a creep
This barraki have a lot of cool pieces, like the armors, colors and the face. It isn't creep, and i think that none children can be feared because of toys. The launcher don't launch squid very well, and the material of it and of these are the same of the tentacles, don't being good for weapons, but for tentacles and spines. Overall, it is 5/5.

A Cold-Blooded Barraki
Kalmah is a very unique barraki design.he has no mask,however he has a face with three blue eyes and five small black tentacles on the back of his head.His new pieces include claws in his mouth,tentacles on his left hand and a squid launcher on the right hand.the claws in his mouth are somewhat strange to me but on the other hand this represents the symbol of the 6 barraki if you know what I mean.He has a weapon called a tentacle.This is the first time a barraki doesn't have a unique artificial weapon tool,so he use a tentacle as a weapon.Some reviewers say Squid Launchers doesn't really fire.For me it really fires.Its simple,you hold the squid and put it in the squid launcher.Make sure that its loosen not tight,maybe thats why you can't fire the squid properly.Finally,fire it really fast so it won't tighten the squid in the squid launcher and there you have it.Anyway back to the review,What is really weird to me is Kalmah's feet.When I look at the picture,his feet is a normal hordika feet but when I bought this at Toys "r" us.His feet is a webbed hordika feet.Maybe there's something wrong with the picture,probably its only a prototype set.Ok I'm done explaning here are the Pros and Cons.
Pros:
-A nice design for a barraki
-A great facial design
-Webbed hordika feet
-Squid Launcher really fires(If you know my instructions)
Cons:
-some tentacles can bend when in the canister.
Overall: 5(8/10)A very nice set for a barraki.0 out of 0 people thought this review was helpful.
