Product Description

The following is a product description taken directly from LEGO. View the source here

The explosive power of Panrahk! From the exciting new direct-to-video movie BIONICLE: The Mask of Light, here come the Toa Nuva's greatest foes: the Rahkshi. These "sons of Makuta" have been unleashed on the island to find the Mask of Light and stop the coming of the Seventh Toa! Panrahk's powerful staff can shatter any obstacle in his path. So great is his raw energy that the ground explodes wherever he walks! Can even the might of the Toa Nuva stop this power-packed menace?

Set Information

The Panrahk set was released in summer 2003 as one of the six Rahkshi sets. The set consists of forty-five pieces.

By combining pieces from Panrahk with 8590 Guurahk and 8591 Vorahk, one can build the Rahkshi Kaita Vo. Instructions for another model that combined pieces from Panrahk and 8592 Turahk were included in a Kabaya-associated bundle. The Asian LEGO magazine published a few models, one of which Panrahk is involved in, that later made their way onto the Bionicle.com Builder's Section, though with no instructions. Yet another model involving Panrahk, 'Great Rahkshi', was published in a Korean LEGO magazine, this one with instructions.

A limited edition version of the set later available at Target stores contained a Shadow Kraata.

Features

By turning a knob in Panrahk's back, its torso will move from side to side, swinging its Staff of Fragmentation.

Panrahk's canister is designed to have its decals peeled off to display the Rahkshi stored inside. The canister's bottom, when turned over, features six small holes that the peg in the bottom of a Kraata can fit into, so the Kraata can be displayed.

Some copies of the set included a Panrahk Mini Promo CD.

Collectibles

A rubber Kraata Xi, randomly chosen from one of the six main stages, was included in the set.

Some later Panrahk sets include one of the six variations of Shadow Kraata instead of the original Kraata. This limited edition set was available exclusively at Target stores.
