Review brought to you by BrickEconomy Bot

“Tahu was released in 2001. As a Toa Mata, Tahu carried a fire sword, and when a gear in his back was turned, his arm with the sword would move up and down. He wore a red Kanohi Hau, the Great Mask of Shielding. In the 2003 storyline, Tahu was released in his new form as a... More Toa Nuva in the set 8572 Tahu Nuva. An entirely new set based on the original Tahu figure was released in 2010 as part of the BIONICLE Stars subtheme, 7116 Tahu.”

“I feel that Tahu was a real Classic for his time. He set the mood right, and the set was a great change from the Slizers. A few problems though, included the lack of moveability.”

“Tahu's right arm can be swung by turning a gear in his back. This function can be used to try to knock off the mask of another Toa or Rahi set.”

About Bionicle Toa Mata

The Toa Mata are the main heroes of LEGO BIONICLE and comprised of Tahu, Gali, Lewa, Pohatu, Onua, and Kopaka. They were the first Toa and where originally just known as Toa. When they were submersed in energized protodermis and came out with enhanced powers and abilities, Toa Tahu renamed them the Toa Nuva. Their powers included strong control over their element, personal tools used mainly for directing their elemental power, and a Kanohi Mask granting an additional ability. On Mata Nui the Toa each collected additional Kanohi Masks that allowed them to use the powers that their brother Toa have.

Toa Mata was introduced in 2001 and currently consists of 6 sets. As of today, 8534 Tahu is the most valuable Toa Mata set with an estimated new/factory sealed value of $286.
