I like the Rahkshi better because I think they’re cooler Sets, but the Visorak are pretty neat as well.

Both have knees, both are heavily gimmick-oriented, and both appear in Bionicle movies. But I like the Rahkshi better.

As sets I prefer the Visorak, for parts I prefer the Rahkshi.

The Visorak are more varied than the Rahkshi (the lower limbs and shells are different) but the Rahkshi are more fun to play with. They flop, yes, but so do the Visorak and those flop even more. Oh, and the Rahkshi have much better collectibles - the Kraata.

Yes, but only one has a manga-inspired combo model, so its kneecaps are invalid.

The Rahkshi are more fun to have as a horde; there’s only so many different ways a quadruped can be posed, while the Rahkshi can have a variety of dynamic poses.

Solve this by making the Visorak biped

I think Rahkshi was better because of the articulation.

The Visorak Boggarak is relatively fun to attach on one’s back in Blue Beetle fashion. And of course, setting up the other Visoraks around the house as decoration may surprise unsuspecting guests…

And…they are quite fun to fire.

I’ve never had a Visorak in my collection, but I do have a Panrahk, and from my experience, it has better play value as a toy.
The side-to-side turning gear function is fun, and the staff looks dope.

However, from a design perspective, the Visorak is better as display models. The Rhotuka spinners can be as fun as shooting projectiles if you have the patience to master their function.

I would say it depends on what you prefer: Displayability or playability.
