Set Information
Tahu was revealed at New York Comic Con 2014 during the BIONICLE panel, and released in January 2015 in the United States and some countries in Europe. The set contains 89 pieces, including two Masks of Fire and a green Skull Spider.
A comic is featured on the back of the set's box, which advertises the feature of combining Tahu with 70783 Protector of Fire to create a "powered-up" Tahu. The LEGO Club website also released building instructions for another model combining parts from Tahu and the Protector of Fire, known as "Special Tahu".
Features
Turning a knob on the model's back causes its arms to swing. The two Fire Blades can be fit together and attach to the model's feet to create a Lava Surfboard. The Golden Swords can be attached to the set's back when not being wielded.
By pushing down on the back of the set's eyestalk, its mask will fly off.
Collectibles
The set includes the Mask of Fire, the Golden Mask of Fire, and a light green Skull Spider.
