Set Information

The set contains 373 pieces and was released in summer 2007.

Features

The blades of the Underwater Trap can be opened and closed to restrain Karzahni.

Karzahni carries a Squid Launcher that can be used to shoot the squid projectiles included with the set.

Collectibles

The set includes two dark green mutated Kanohi Huna pieces that serve as Karzahni's kneecaps, though the pieces do not represent Kanohi masks within the storyline. Conversely, Karzahni wears a mutated Olisi in the storyline, but the set form of the mask is built from multiple pieces instead of being a single unique part. A dark red Kanohi Huna and a dark blue Kanohi Ruru are also included. Finally, the set includes two yellow-orange Sea Squid.

Trivia

  • Some boxes for the set erroneously featured the Kanoka Club code for 8939 Lesovikk, LSK537, rather than Karzahni's own code, KZH527. At least some releases of the set used the correct code.
