LEGO Bionicle Mini-Tahu Review - 90 Years of Play

A quick little review of the Tahu build from LEGO Classic set 11021, "90 Years of Play."

No, of course I didn't review the whole set, why would I do that when I could talk exclusively about Tahu for seven minutes?

[Soul_May]

I think it speaks volumes that in the store page for this set one of the key points advertised is that Tahu is back

[Clanso]

Though I may not have a single Bionicle set as of yet, I can still tell that this is clearly peak Binokle toy.

He's so small and tiny he's adorable.

He may not be what we wanted, but he's just what we needed in such a dark time.

Poll said Bionicle won
Lego: Hey, we're gonna celebrate *EVERYONE*

Tahu must have a huge backpain tho, carrying the whole set awareness and popularity.

Y'know, if Bionicle were to have a third generation, these miniature Toa like this Mini-Tahu would make good pack-in bonuses for the main sets.

The best part was twitter going to the 7 stages of grief in one hour when we knew about this little fella and proceeded to love

[bibisebi]

Hearing you talk about the bionicle community was heart warming. The funny thing is that it reminded me that as a kid while bionicle was running and long after, I've never once ran into another bionicle fan in person lol

[venobladebionicles]

I love him so much.... he's such a friend

[Keatosis_Quohotos]

I really expected bionicle fans to be bitter and resentful about mini Tahu, but it's really warmed my heart to see everyone accept him lovingly.

[byte.mp]

I love how when tahu was first released, there was a lot of hate. But slowly people fell in love with him, me included.

i put this in my watch later and brought my tahu to watch it with me while i ate lunch. thank you

[gandsproductions]

Personally I would rather have had something using mixel joints but I like that you can make all the different characters fairly simply using this build style

Minute 6:14 Unity !
Minute 6:17 Duty !
Minute 6:22 Destiny !

Bionicle Toa always did a lot of evolving throughout the franchise, so to see a new version of Tahu feels very fitting

[kabob]

2:09 Tahu Stars looks like he's been through a war or twenty. I don't know what exactly makes him give off that energy, but he FEELS like he's been through a lot and barely came out alive. Meanwhile Tiny Tahu looks like a kid next to his grandpa.

[PS-itdm]

As a Mata Nui era fan this build makes me so happy. I need to get pieces to one.

[calderse]

Scrunkle means something ugly/weird but cute in it's own way.

[nickjfv]

The music around the 4:00 minute mark really made me happy :) great review. Reminded me again of why bionicle is so special. The g1 era was something truly incredible. Mini Tahu is the perfect symbol for the theme.

[Xsoskeleton]

the fact he has more piece count than tahu stars really speak a lot

[StarHorder]

I was not expecting so much emotion and passion. I am subbed now.
