The Kahgarak are an elite species of Visorak. They often led smaller Visorak units on hunts, and served as guards for the Coliseum and other important strategic sites. Sometimes they were also used as mounts. Recently, the Kahgarak and the other Visorak have begun to come to the island of Artidax, where the Heart of the Visorak is located.

Kahgarak come in a wide variety of sizes and colors, but the majority are considerably larger than normal Visorak and primarily have a blue or gold shell.

Kahgarak have built-in Rhotuka launchers which can fire spinners that can can open a portal to the Field of Shadows. Anything that the Rhotuka collides with will be sucked into the dimension; the only ways to escape is if a Kahgarak opens another portal and the being leaves through it, or the use of an Olmak. The Kahgarak often use their Rhotuka to unleash the Zivon and return it to the Field of Shadows. This unique Rhotuka power also made them feared opponents.

Some Kahgarak were also fitted with projectile launchers for use in sieges. Their large size made them ideal weapons platforms.

[carve] Set Information

A blue and white Kahgarak can be built out of Visorak sets Boggarak and Suukorak, with the instructions being available in the two sets. It features a Rhotuka Launcher on its back and a silver Rhotuka spinner. Pressing down on its head causes its mandibles to squeeze together.

A special edition gold and dark blue Kahgarak was later released with the 2005 Battle for Metru Nui playset. This version featured an exclusive gold-colored Vohtarak body. Pressing down on the head caused its mandibles to squeeze together, and its back featured a Rhotuka launcher that could fire the set's glow-in-the-dark or silver Rhotuka spinners. The Kahgarak could also launch the mini-Visorak from its underside by pulling the Visorak back along a beam. It was labeled as the "Great Visorak" on the Battle for Metru Nui box.

Another gold and dark blue Kahgarak came in the Tower of Toa playset of the same year and featured a golden Kraahkan as a purely structural component of its head. Its underside was fitted with a blunt shooter which could be fired by pressing down on the Kahgarak's back.
