Description

The villain of the relaunch

When Bionicle returned in 2016, its six heroes needed a formidable enemy. Umarak fills that role as a hunter with his own mask and heavy weaponry. The set recreates him as a figure for play and display. At 172 pieces he is a little larger than the small companions in the range, yet still not a lengthy build. Anyone who followed the story of Okoto will recognise him at once as one of its most important characters. On a shelf the figure looks especially menacing next to the heroes.

Joints instead of minifigures

Bionicle sets come without minifigures, since the figure itself is the model. Arms and legs move on ball joints and axles, so Umarak can be posed in fighting stances. The construction follows its own logic: first the skeleton with its joints, then the armour on top, and finally the mask and weapon. Along the way you learn how technical elements cooperate inside a figure, and you can apply the same principle to creatures you design yourself. The build also demands little prior experience, and the instructions are clearly structured.

Black, grey and glowing green

The colours suit a hunter of the shadows. Black and dark bluish grey form the body and armour, while trans-bright green lights up the eyes and energy crystals and gives a strong contrast. Blue parts round off the picture. With 68 different part types the selection is wide for a figure of this size. The transparent elements and special joints in particular tend to be scarce in many collections, which makes them handy for custom creations. Collectors who only display single figures still find plenty of room for posing.

Counting parts, recombining them

The full parts list on this page helps you count pieces if a second-hand set turns up incomplete. The “What can I build?” tool also shows what you can assemble from Umarak's parts plus your own collection. Many Bionicle fans build their own creatures by mixing pieces from several figures, and the dark palette of this set suits that purpose well, because it blends with almost anything. That saves time if you want to start rebuilding right after finishing.
