Lego help wanted...

[McKelly]

Looking over my DS's shoulder when he was writing his Christmas list (yes, early, but I always tell them to do it the 1st of November), he is asking for Bionicle - Rahi. What is that? I tried to search it on the internet, but the only thing that I came up with is a book. Does anybody know if they actually make this Bionicle? Thanks for any help.

Looking at wikipedia it seems like Rahi is a species.

Could it be this one: http://www.amazon.com/Bionicle-Rahi-Beasts/dp/0439696224 ?

Okay, so it is a species , not an actual, single bionicle. That is what I found on-line too, but it is a book, he wants the bionicle he can put together -thanks though!!

 

[Nie0214]

Oh sorry, I didn't even notice the Amazon link was a book.

This website might be able to help http://bionicle.wikia.com/ but I don't find a buildable one for "rahi" either.

Goodluck!

Thanks for the link, that is helpful. I think I am in trouble, my DS is still a believer and I don't know what I am going to do!! Ugh!!

Hi, I've got a Bionicle nut in the house. He says it's not called Rahi but Rahi Nui, or possibly try searching under Toa Rahi Nui, but that Toa are the enemy of the Rahi. It's an odler form of Bionicle, so might be harder to find. Did you try Lego.com? Good Luck, I've been there, it's hard work trying to get the names all correct.

Maybe this Lego link will help you. My DS 10 is a Lego nut and he knows all about bionicles.

Hey, I tried searching here in the UK and I came across this, but it's from 2001 - so you might have to find a way for the man in the big red coat to get out of it

Go to lego.com website. You can search by bionicles currently available.

Lego makes TONS of bionicle figures. They were HOT sellers last year (I sold a bunch on ebay). They had a series of I think 5 or 6 figures, most were about $9.99 a set, and only 100 pieces or less in each set.

I'm betting this is another set of bionicles. Yup, just checked the site. Tons of new bionicles. Maybe the one your son wants in on there.

Arran also says maybe he's got it mixed up and he means Mahri, which are last year's Bionicle?

Thanks everybody, you really helped me out. I would have been looking in the stores forever, I didn't realize it was an older Bionicle. My son is reading the Bionicle books now and reading those comic books and I am sure that is where he got the Rahi thing from. I just ordered one off of E-bay, it was a Brickmaster limited edition winged Rahi. $8.00!! I hope that is the one!!! It is going to have to be!!

 

[glesgalass]

I'm sure it'll be fine, in my experience, at least with the Bionicle, thy're so delighted to get one which is almost right, it becomes the right one in their mind, my son always sees the advantage of the one he's got it's got wings, the other one didn't etc., etc.
