The sheer amount of Bionicle you could get for just $30 back in the day is astounding

@Cheatster9000x 9 лет назад

Am I the only one that thinks Maxilos' "Mask" looks like an underwater-adapted Hau?

@magmorix3883 9 лет назад

I do too

@williamcooper8599 9 лет назад

Same here, I've always seen it like that.

@nuke646 9 лет назад

Cheatster9000x that's what I thought it was when I first saw it

@magmorix3883 9 лет назад

Maybe it is based off of it, as the first time we saw Makuta Teridax, he had a corrupted Hau on...

TFDUDE13 you can always retrieve the instruction sheets from the lego website. Just plug in the set serial number

@Randomizer903 9 лет назад

Jazz5608 Official I'm a terrible bionicle fan in that case. When I finally built the figures and whatnot, they didn't last more than 24 hours. I soon broke them all down and threw them into a big bin to use for future MOCing. Zaktan lasted a whole month, but that was only because I was anticipating getting the rest of the piraka, which never happened.

@jaymess3276 9 лет назад

Donavon Ho I would dig up the instructions, but as I broke it down and threw the pieces into the "Bionicle Box" I have lost most of the parts I would need.

@Porkate42 9 лет назад

I found this set like a opposite Vezon and Fenrakk. While that set had small owner and big pet, this has big owner and small pet. Love this titian to death though!

Maxilos: A large red, black and gunmetal grey villain with a huge staff and skeletal pet thing. Kulta: A large red, black and gunmetal grey villain with a huge staff and skeletal......pet........warrior......thing. Did Lego do this on purpose? And will they do it again in future sets?(Probably not)

@Blue-Rain 6 лет назад

He's also a robotic guard of the order of mata nui

@LighttoneGryphStar 4 года назад

Is it weird that I have both and never noticed the similarities until now.

@gabbpolicarpio1236 2 года назад

Kulta (Skull Grinder) has transparent neon-red, Maxilos has normal red.

@SuperSecretBricks 6 месяцев назад

G2 has a lot of callbacks to G1. Like Tahu Master's Hau between a mix of the Hau Mata and Hau Nuva. Or the protector's mask being based on Toa Mahri Jaller

@Revallc 8 лет назад

makuta requires mask of light (has 2 on the arms) makuta requires mask of life (has 2 vezons masks which have the mask of life)

$20 for this at the original retail price sounds insanely cheap by modern Lego standards.

@boogie1434 9 лет назад

It's pretty cool that they made Maxilos have the same color scheme as Makuta 03, am I the only one who noticed this? Lol who in the bionicle universe would ever NOT think that Maxilos was Teridax

@dragonstar2387 7 лет назад

*+Ethereal 14* The Maxilos robot isn't a single entity; they were a full set of guardians and enforcers, like the Vahki. That specific Maxilos that was in the Pit was possessed by Makuta Teridax, and still looks like every other Maxilos robot. Therefore, nobody has any reason to suspect anything unless they already know.

@bruhfeld9600 10 месяцев назад

Maybe not in lore, but thet *definitely* did that on puprose when designing the set. The color blocking for the red and gunmetal gray is match for match what it was with the 03 Makuta set. Not only that, the torso and shoulders look like a much more proportional take on the original Makuta set's torso

@jakest123 9 лет назад

I always thought Maxilos's mask was just a hau. Looks closer to the original hau than the 2008 one did.

@spectoestis3106 Год назад

I don't think the 08 mask was supposed to be a Hau

@FireyeMC 7 лет назад

@KaltatheNobleMind 7 лет назад

I just realized something: with the wide upper body,curved shoulders, pistons for the sides and the squarish face/mask, the Maxilose Robot looks similar to the Great Spirit Robot. wonder if we can infer that the maxilos robots were built by the great beings themselves as opposed to being creations of the matoran.

Before reading the comics and seeing just the Maxillos model, I thought it was a Pit-infected Tahu.

@RedGatack 9 лет назад

Maxilos head always looked like a fancy hau. If you wanted to make a Tahu Mahri, Maxilos head mask thing would look good.

@jackpfefferkorn3734 Год назад

I'm pretty confident in saying that Spinax also introduced a recolor of the rahkshi leg pieces. The original rahkshi used old dark grey, and as far as I can determine, Spinax was the first set to use them in new dark blueish-grey.

@ratchetpokemaster123 8 лет назад

This is the only set I have from the classic Bionicle series that is still intact. Only thing I did was double the length of his chain with the ones from Hewki Mahri. Jaller Mahri is close, but I completely took out his crab, gave him his cordak blaster, and removed his tubes. But I still love this set. Glad that after all these years and two moves between houses with little protection, both Maxilos and Spinax are favorites.

@aamm8615 5 лет назад

Same color scheme as Makuta from 03 by the way! It does tie him in well, love that the red mask is very similar to the original hau, but for underwater!

@maxieprimo2758 7 лет назад

2016 Tahu is called out for having really short shins and really long thighs, yet Maxilos is regarded as one of the best Bionicle figures ever?

@Saiyangoddess72 3 года назад

Probably biased against the new sets/nostalgia for the old, Or maybe with maxilos it's significantly less noticeable🤔

@IfthiAli 9 лет назад

Lego should either add or alter the CCBS to allow this amount of articulation. This is brilliant.

@ColinRoxs 2 года назад

3:42 Actually that specific colour is only in this set. This set uses "Flat Silver" while every other set to use that piece uses "Pearl Light Silver". So it was the first with that colour, and the last.

@Teeeeeee77 9 лет назад

I just got all the summer sets except for mask maker vs. skull grinder and I have to say, they are fantastic. Even skull Scorpio is good. He has a fun build and reminds me of a 2001 rahi.

Spynax? SPYNAX? *SPYNAX!?!??* Farshtey! NAMES, DON'T, *WORK THAT WAY!* Ahem, gripes about name pronunciation aside, this set is hella cool. The articulation is almost unparalleled, the custom weapon on Maxilos is sweet, and the amount of gun-metal colored parts is off the charts! SPINax is a cutie, what with his big ole teeth, and overall, the two of them form a nice pair that is a MUST HAVE for any Gen1 Bionicle fan.

@michaelNXT1 Год назад

I just got this set and I have to add, the chain is ridiculously short, only 9 links (with one extra) when the promotional pictures have probably 15-20, very hard to pose them both like that. Other than that it's an incredible set, a great investment

One thing that I've noticed about the color scheme on Maxilos is that his hands are black, yet there is no other actual part of him that is black, except the hands. It's hard to notice, (took me two years of having the set to notice) but once you notice it, it's a bit jarring, and even a bit saddening.
