From a set perspective, I’ve always enjoyed what Mantax had to offer. He manages to take the Inika torso and work it into a design that’s not inherently humanoid. I also love how he pulls of his established animal motif- a Ray- making for a cool use of Carapar’s chest armor.
Set wise, Carapar is my favorite due to him being my only Barraki, but character/story wise, Takadox is my favorite.
I feel like a lot of these topics are basically just “what’s your favorite color?”
The Barraki aren’t clone sets though and they have personalities to boot
Yeah, but they all have kinda janky builds, and most people like the ones they liked as kids, which are generally whatever one was their favorite color.
@Matanui606 Actually I voted for Ehlek when the first barraki I got was Pridak. Ammited Pridak isn’t that great but I still have nostalgia for him though Ehlek always appealed to me more, even though I never owned him.
I did say most, there are exceptions to every rule.
Even gravity?
Yes my friend, let me introduce you to quantum mechanics…
So my dream of flight is possible?
Nocturn was not a Barraki warlord
Probably Takadox and Ehlek set wise, but Mantax for its personality.
My least favorite is Pridak, as the set has that stupid flippidy floppidy waist.
######also what’s up with all the polls?
Sure if you’re a tiny particle over an infontismaly small amount of time.
It’s a fad. Like when the boards updated to allow GIF avatars everyone had to have one, and now they’re just commonplace.
Just use the new thicker HF socket or take a socket from an old set you haven’t posed in a while; they tend to be stiffer
It shouldn’t be hard to guess who I voted for
Granted, my choice is kinda less about his character and more about what he represents from a meta perspective (if you’ve seen my comment in the “RIP Bionicle 2k16” thread or whatever, you’ll know what I mean), but he genuinely is a good set. Maybe not #1 among the Barraki, but definitely a contender.
pridak needs more votes
The fact that it’s fixable with other pieces doesn’t mean there’s no issue with the set though.
If I remember correctly my first Barraki was Kalmah and I love him as I always had a liking for squids but Takadox is also up there together with Ehlek… hmm… I think I will have to go with Kalmah this time.
Man tax needs more votes
