This is intended as the one big set that comes at the end of the year, almost always a fortress-like build. This build takes inspiration from a lot of sets like this that have come before such as the Battle of Metru Nui (The Kanohi-like gateway) Helm’s Deep (Similar aesthetic, exploding wall and re-arrangeable design) and the Chima Lion fortress set that was released in 2013 (drawbridge and head gateway, sectioned up design, turrets on the ends and launching vehicle), and a bunch more that would take too long to name.
I also took some influence from different versions of Ta-Koro, but in particular from Mnog with it’s charred forest and mask-collector-monument-thing (sorry I don’t know what it’s called)
Also worth noting the price is has a $10 plus onto the number of pieces guide due to the burps and the two light bricks.
EDIT: Should also mention who that other Matoran is, seeing as it should all be canon characters. He’s Kalama, a member of the Ta Koro guard.
Yes these trees were inspired by the trees in the Temple of Airjitzu set. They’re a great design why not use them.
This is the connector piece that connects the different sections together. You don’t have to use it but it allows a hinging motion for more arrangement possibilities.
