Product Description

The following is a product description taken directly from LEGO. View the source here
Sonic power unleashed!
Six reasons to hide!
From the depths of Mata Nui, they came... six elite Bohrok, the Bohrok-Kal, with one mission: to free the Bohrok queens and unleash the swarms again! Only the Toa Nuva stand in their way... but the Bohrok-Kal have stolen the elemental powers of the heroes, leaving them helpless. Will the Toa Nuva's first adventure be their last?

Kohrak-Kal's sonic powers are so great, even the other Bohrok-Kal must beware of them! Its mastery over sound allows it to create sonic barriers, cause objects to stress and shatter, or even create objects made completely of solid sound! Look for 72 Limited Edition genuine Sterling Silver Krana-Kal and 5,000 Limited Edition silver-colored metal versions in Bohrok-Kal packages. They're randomly packed so you never know where the power of Silver might be found (not available in Europe)!

Set Information

The Kohrak-Kal set was released in winter 2003 as one of the six Bohrok-Kal sets. The set consists of forty pieces.

By combining pieces from Kohrak-Kal with 8576 Lehvak-Kal and 8578 Gahlok-Kal, one can build the Bohrok-Kal Kaita Ja.

Combination Models

Kohrak-Kal is involved in the following combinations:

Bohrok-Kal Kaita Ja

Inspirational Combiner 4 'Volcano Knight Tahu'

Features

By pushing a button in Kohrak-Kal's back, its head will snap forward to attack. A rubber band causes its head to retract once the attack is over. Pressing its eyes will cause its krana-kal to shoot forward.

Kohrak-Kal can also be curled up into a ball. A piece included will clip onto Kohrak-Kal's lower back, and can be used to hang Kohrak-Kal from the lid of its canister when it is in its ball shape. The canister itself is modeled after an individual cell of the Bohrok Nests, and the hanging Kohrak-Kal represents the Bohrok-Kal's dormancy.

Early copies of the set included a Kohrak-Kal Mini Promo CD.

Collectibles

A pearl rubber krana-kal, randomly chosen from one of the eight types, was included in the set.

Kohrak-Kal sets potentially carried one of 72 sterling silver Krana Xa-Kal or one of 5000 white metal Krana Xa-Kal, along with a certificate of authenticity.
