Lego Bionicle Bohrok Gahlok (BLUE) #8562
The Bohrok, a race consisting of six insectlike species that use  elemental powers, add to the mythological story of the Bionicles. The Gahlok are  the Water Bohrok, who can draw water from a source and then redirect it at a  chosen target. These slippery critters never give away their strategy, keep  their enemies on their toes, and never attack the same place twice. This  40-piece Bionicle kit uses a system of ball-and-socket joints, pegs, gears, and  machinelike body parts for assembly. The illustrated instructions are easy to  follow, and the black and blue pieces snap together without difficulty. A lever  just behind the back of the head can be pressed to make the top dome lunge  forward--a simple but incredibly cool effect. The completed Gahlok stands  solidly on its own, offers a variety of offensive or defensive poses, and can be  suspended in its container when not in battle.--Pam Lauer
