i remember this set i only had krekka but i had a metric ton of other bionicle sets so little child me used the 1/3rd of the instructions and the completed image to work out how the parts all went together i was so proud to have the final thing in my hands, even if the colors didnt quite match
You know lego F***** up when this toy line is still very much alive with nothing but memes, old reviews, and fan made games. The toys themselves are less like toys and more like holy relics today 😂
It was really cool getting this guy when I was younger. Seeing that 555 piece count was both intimidating and exciting. I've built and rebuilt him and the titans that make him up several times since 2004. I think as an actual representation of Teridax he isn't that great but as a manifestation of Vakamas fears he works better. He's not as bulky as the real thing and his features are somewhat exaggerated since I think that's what Vakama expects to see. He doesn't know how nuanced and subtle Makuta would actually turn out to be. Great set that articulates that in my opinion. Great work as always!
Fun fact: if you order all sets seperated (even the mask seperate), it will be cheaper than buying it in the bundle, which is weird considering it should be other way
This combiner always felt like such an oddball amidst the other Metru Nui sets, especially since it's supposed to represent The Makuta. Onwards to 2005
Congrats on your first (official) Mata Nui Monday Mando, as well as to the other international viewers that enjoy Mata Nui Tuesdays based on the typical upload time!
I stuck my Kraahkan in place of the tooth head, and retrofitted the limbs and body with Rahkshi backs to make this more “Makuta”-like. I then used the leftover parts to make a prototype Dark Hunter that is now one of my favorite MOCs! Thanks for the memories!
You gotta get yourself some G2 friction extenders from the 2015 sets. I use em in pretty much all my old titans, makes em soooo much easier to work with.
Oh yeah, it works perfectly! My favorite part is that they just snap directly onto the old joints, so you don't have to heavily modify the build or anything. Very easy to reverse.
Sweet, only ever had Nidhiki and Krekka sets so never actually seen this model built. Remember not being overly bothered about this one after seeing the second movie just had the 2003 Makuta model with wings rather than this.
This is actually what got me interested in 2004 as a whole, before that I wasn't much of a fan. But after seeing your reviews I think I'll have to get this separate so I can have all 3 titans along side it!
As a kid, I couldn't stop staring at this in the Lego Catalog and dreaming of getting all three sets to make it. I can't believe Im seeing this for real
I actally got all 3 sets for Christmas when these came out and made the combination model. It was awesome but it was so huge I couldn't really play with it lol
I was never able to make this, because I didn't have Krekka, similar to how I never had Takanuva from the prior year. This is the second of four combiner model "sets", but is the final to have an extra exclusive piece as part of it.
At 1:00, OMG did anyone notice the scene shot of the Shadow Hand atop the Coliseum it lookis like a mouth that the giant hand was coming from & two eyes above it?
Nice review! Would You consider doing the "lost revies" from 2001 and 2003? The Power Pack from 2001 and the Fikou from 2003? I know the Fikou was in the master builder but tHafu wasn't shown and the chrome hau is one of the best items! Keep up the amazing work!
Probably not to be honest. I do have the Power Pack but jumped over it because there just wasn't a whole lot to include since the cd is problematic on today's pc's. If anything I should have included it with the Tohunga video
Ok so in 05 there are I believe is 2 combo models their own boxes. One of these sets has a unique instruction booklet i believe. I do not think there are any unique parts to either model when bought as a set but it would a good idea to double check. Just thought I would let you know when we get to the titan trio
There is a second combination you are correct. If my sources are correct we have The Shadowed One and Voporak. We're entering a weird time where there's a LOT of combination models but they were released in sources other than the instructions
I was so confused when I saw this in the comics, I was like, "IS THAT MAKUTA?? NO, HE DOESN'T HAVE TEETH, B-B-BUT HE HAS THAT RED HAND THING!! BUT HE LOOKS LIKE A BEAST!! BUT HE HAS THOSE WINGS!! AND THIS IS VERY REMINISCINT OF THAT FINAL BATTLE?!" I'm glad I know now 😅
This is how Makuta should have looked like in the second film, not the MOL Makuta with wings. I dont care if Greg says the 03 Shadow Titan Makuta is just the Winged Titan Makuta without wings, these two forms are completely different forms in my book and the Shadow Titan Makuta is his original form.
Well Time Trap did confirm that Teridax had Nihdiki, Krekka, and Nivawks parts. Making him look like a Frankenstein type monster. It took The Shadowed One a good look at him to notice. So yeah Teridax pretty much looked like the set in canon. I think GF said it to save face, but that's just speculating
uhh...the 175$ price?....USA, UK, AUS, other, please clarify as exchange rates affect everyone. secondly axxon had 2 of those ball & socket joint hands and was great but he needed them to be big cause his axe was huge by toa standards.
That is the ultimate dume exclusive mask of shadow, its the mask of shadow from 03 with basically the back half cut off. You cant get the mask if you make the set using the titan models. Only the ultimate dume box set has it.
Ultimate dume is essentially teridax's physical form that we see in both movies. And sadly neither the original set or this one looks like the movie teridax.
I couldn't find any official verification on the pronunciation, and since I used doom as the pronunciation last time I figured why not stick with it! 😂
@@AllOutBrick We're just goin' off the second movie, I think. And seeing as how Mask of Light called the air Toa "Lee-wa," it's a subjective decision. 🙂
He is quite visually interesting and imposing, but has a lot of gaps... Recently I found this re-made version of him board.ttvchannel.com/t/ultimate-dume-modifications/55016 It uses all the same parts as the original, but looks better in my opinion, torso is more armored and solid, feet are more interesting and movie-like. So check it out, maybe you'd like this version for display instead of vanilla.
I'm not sure, I see the set standing there and it feels flat. Like literally flat. I kinda wish the height was shorter if it would mean the body would be bulkier.
Very cool how they represented the Makuta's Shadow Hand. I prefer the set's look with the mask, feels more complete.
That was definitely a nice thing they included from the film into this model!
Agreed, it ain't bionicle if he didn't have a mask
Your reviews are some of the most professional in the Bionicle community. It’s always something to look forward to on Mondays!
Thank you! Glad to have you tag along with us every week!
i remember this set
i only had krekka but i had a metric ton of other bionicle sets

Good point about the Ultimate Dume working much better for a manifestation of Vakama's fears! I agree
This combo surely inspired the Bionicle team for the legendary Kardas set and that's why I like it.
Like, proto-kardas.

Until 07 and we go UNDER THE SEA
This is probably the first Mata Nui Monday that's actually on Monday in my place, can't wait for the next one!

I remember getting these 3 through out the year and building Dume out of pure boredom ! man the nostalgia is real
You gotta get yourself some G2 friction extenders from the 2015 sets. I use em in pretty much all my old titans, makes em soooo much easier to work with.
Now that's a smart mod right there! Probably works perfectly at cleaning up the friction issues with degrading parts
Oh yeah, it works perfectly! My favorite part is that they just snap directly onto the old joints, so you don't have to heavily modify the build or anything. Very easy to reverse.
Ultimate Dume always looked for me as a poor version of Botar, but the wings are cool though.
yeah they totally took this idea and improved it in 2006
The future will be mine, even without the Mask of Time
frikkin got me with the hand sign at 3:16 👌
Got me too, dang

I got the bundle set as a birthday present in 2004. Had a great time building all sets.
One of my favorite "sets" of all time, great review as always
As a kid, I couldn't stop staring at this in the Lego Catalog and dreaming of getting all three sets to make it. I can't believe Im seeing this for real
I actally got all 3 sets for Christmas when these came out and made the combination model. It was awesome but it was so huge I couldn't really play with it lol
Take some appreciation, you deserve it dude
I appreciate that!
This one is pretty neat, some CCBS friction joints might help it a lot. I specially like how odd the mask is, with the weird connections and all.
Props for mentioning the weak ankles.
Excellent review. Lookin' forward to video #2!
More to come! Appreciate it!
@@AllOutBrick of course we know its Lekon (i intentionally misspelled it to purposely get Vietnam flashbacks to the Bionicle Revolution script)
@@juliad9715 I was thinking it might be the Lohrak, actually... technically a combo model, right?
@@E4439Qv5 he said FINAL two builds of 2004 in the latest community post. Lhikan wasnt covered yet, so hes the last build.
I was so lucky to have this when I was a kid. Thanks for reviewing it!
Massive set, dude! I have all three titans, but I've never built Ultimate Dume because I would hate to rebuild the titans 😆
Yeah I'm currently in that state of sadness having to rebuild them all 😂
@@AllOutBrick oh noooo
The movie looked at this and said, "It's 2003 Makuta's identical twin!"
Yo, the mask looks awesome! I’m glad I could help.
Thanks again! You rock!
Dume's mask has been useful.
Now, for its final task...
Wasn’t expected a video this earlier double upload today nice
I was never able to make this, because I didn't have Krekka, similar to how I never had Takanuva from the prior year. This is the second of four combiner model "sets", but is the final to have an extra exclusive piece as part of it.
Probably my favourite incarnation of Teridax, the whole set is just so imposing and sturdy
I will try to look for this
got the combination model when i was 6 and still love to build it
The shadow has arrived!
At 1:00, OMG did anyone notice the scene shot of the Shadow Hand atop the Coliseum it lookis like a mouth that the giant hand was coming from & two eyes above it?
Yay! Another Mata Nui Monday!
More to come today too! MEGA Mata Nui Monday!
@@AllOutBrick absolutely epic
oh yeah they definitely learned from the red hand being too big and articulated when they made Axonn
Very pog keep making the great videos
Appreciate it, much more to come in the future!

@@AllOutBrick yes Voporak is the one who has his own instructions in the box. I am unsure if TSO has it as well.
Nice, double upload today
You know it
I’ve heard leaks about a g3 for bionicle but I don’t think they are true but I think bionicle may be coming back again
Don't get me all hyped up now...
Hey Christian, Where do you get good quality sets in 2021??
Bricklink Noah! Sometimes Ebay and Mercari have some good deals too
I never got to build this set but it looks sick as hell
The look is in my opinion the best part of this combination. Features and stability are lacking but the looks do NOT disappoint
Another day more near to keetongu review
Completely forgot that I had this as a kid. Pretty cool, but yes, it definitely skipped leg day.
If this creature was in the movie I imagined to be like 5 stories high and the toa will literally had to give their best to even take it down
Would've been a fight for the ages. Potentially could have gotten Toa Kaita in the movie to combat him!
I got those rubber joints new in 2004 and they were worn out after a few months. They were not made to last
I remember how this build felt flimsy af even when building it as a kid
Yeah this one was pretty much impossible to play with
I was so confused when I saw this in the comics, I was like, "IS THAT MAKUTA?? NO, HE DOESN'T HAVE TEETH, B-B-BUT HE HAS THAT RED HAND THING!! BUT HE LOOKS LIKE A BEAST!! BUT HE HAS THOSE WINGS!! AND THIS IS VERY REMINISCINT OF THAT FINAL BATTLE?!" I'm glad I know now 😅
I wonder if the other video is the other combiner (but that feels too small for a video idk ._.)
Metru ankles to support that beast... what were they thinking
I started collecting bionicle 3 years ago and lots of my parts i get fron bulks. And...umm, I have 3 of those exclusive masks🤣
Oh wow!
@Sunset's Channel no, sorry, the 2 i have are used as shoulder pads on a MOC, and the 3rd I keep for when i have the space for ultimate dume
Hello there
What piece is it using for the top part of his head? I don't recognize it from the other three sets
Nevermind, you answered it later in the video lol
Mask of Power!
I was today years old when I discovered those friction joints *are* friction joints
This is how Makuta should have looked like in the second film, not the MOL Makuta with wings. I dont care if Greg says the 03 Shadow Titan Makuta is just the Winged Titan Makuta without wings, these two forms are completely different forms in my book and the Shadow Titan Makuta is his original form.
Agreed, I understand the continuity of keeping Makuta looking the same throughout, but it would have been better to use this identity in LOMN
Well Time Trap did confirm that Teridax had Nihdiki, Krekka, and Nivawks parts. Making him look like a Frankenstein type monster. It took The Shadowed One a good look at him to notice. So yeah Teridax pretty much looked like the set in canon. I think GF said it to save face, but that's just speculating
I thought they did that because this design was too scary in animation
uhh...the 175$ price?....USA, UK, AUS, other, please clarify as exchange rates affect everyone.
secondly axxon had 2 of those ball & socket joint hands and was great but he needed them to be big cause his axe was huge by toa standards.
USD! I'm trying to get better at clarifying that in the video, but for your reference I am always referring to USD
I don't recognise the mask. From which set does it come from?
That is the ultimate dume exclusive mask of shadow, its the mask of shadow from 03 with basically the back half cut off. You cant get the mask if you make the set using the titan models. Only the ultimate dume box set has it.
Da beeg boi is here
3:13 👌
Your journey must end!
Ultimate dume is essentially teridax's physical form that we see in both movies. And sadly neither the original set or this one looks like the movie teridax.

Ultimate Doom sounds a lot cooler than Ultimate Dume. Here your mispronunciation actually works!

It certainly could have been sculpted better or added some extra detail. The mouth does feel a tad disproportioned to the mask
