Set Information

The set packaging for 8554

The Tahnok Va set was released in winter 2002 as one of the six Bohrok Va sets. The set consists of 27 pieces.

An identical promotional set was released in Japan as 1431 Tahnok Va by the Kabaya Foods Corporation in 2003.[citation needed] The set was packaged in a polybag, which in turn was packaged inside a box alongside a small bag of candy. The 1431 release of the set was labeled as 6+, rather than 7+ like 8554.

By combining pieces from Tahnok Va with 8552 Lehvak Va, one can build the Pokawi model. Alternatively, Tahnok Va can be joined with 8553 Pahrak Va to create an Infernavika. The instructions for both of these models were published on the LEGO Club website. Additionally, Tahnok Va can be combined with 8553 Pahrak Va and 8555 Nuhvok Va to create a Bohrok Va Kaita. The Kabaya version of Tahnok Va was also advertised as combining with 1432 Nuhvok Va, 1433 Gahlok Va, and 1434 Lehvak Va to create one of three possible combiners. Only one of these combiners had instructions provided.
