LEGO BIONICLE Visorak Boggarak In recent Bionicle lore, the Visorak are spider-like creatures who have taken over the city of Metru Nui and encased it in a shroud of webs. When the Toa Metru reappear in the city, the Visorak attack and their poisonous venom strips the Toa of their mask powers, forcing them to rely on their spinners as weapons. This 47-piece model builds the Boggarak, the fastest type of Visorak, who skims over water looking for victims to inject with venom. The detailed instruction book with three-dimensional color diagrams is invaluable for sorting out the model s pieces and putting the Boggarak together. Once constructed, the model has a ripcord that, when pulled through the Boggarak s spinner, launches it up to 50 feet in the air. The ripcord also activates this Visorak s pincers to open and close. This model requires the skill level of an older child or adult. –Cristina Vaamonde
Customer Review: Some of Bionicle’s best
At first, I wasn’t too keen on any of the Visorak. Thier big body shells don’t seem to work well if you like to mix your Bionicle sets and make your own creations. But, I got one anyway (my wife knew I would!) and immediately changed my tune. First off, the figures are big and cool looking. Lots of detail! The pinching jaw feature works very well, and putting it together made me feel like some kind of smart engineer (which I am not). Some Bionicle figures do not launch their spinners very well. Not the case with Boggarak! You’ll have those spinners soaring through the air in no time! So… don’t use near carpets or furniture or you’ll never find the little spinners again. They fly VERY high and far, so consider that a warning. Otherwise they are alot of fun to build and look at, lots of play value, and good potential for combining with other Bionicle or LEGO Technic sets. Give ‘em wheels and make a Visorak car! Fun!
