These smaller sets aren't about building them. It took my 12-year old Lego nut nephew only a couple of minutes to put together. They're more about the on-going play with a known character and the collecting of them. And, for the eight bucks this one cost me, it gets more than it's value worth of play.
Takanuva, as my nephew informed me, is the only known Toa of light - but has powers of light, shadow and flight. In early 2010, Lego released him and five other characters. So,if you're trying to find a gift a bionicle collector might not have yet, any in this set (7116 Tahu, 7117 Gresh, 7135 Takanuva, 7136 Skrall, 7137 Piraka and 7138 Rahkshi) are probably good options.
Each one comes with a gold piece that when all the characters of the set are collected, the pieces can be used to create a "golden shield" for Tahu - the toa of fire, turning him into a "Golden Toa" that bionicle-wise folks know from the movie.
Takanuva is one of the more popular of the set, but I'd recommend getting Tahu (Set 7116) first or to go along with this one if buying a gift. He's the one the gold shield pieces will ultimately be used upon. His comes with the gold mask that completes his golden warrior outfit(this one comes with a gold piece that can be used on the shoulder or other part of the chest). And finally, he's probably the most popular of them all.
As Amazon toy buyers know, it's worth shopping around to make sure you're getting a decent price versus other store options as they can vary so dramatically.Get more detail about LEGO Takanuva (7135).
