Well to be fair they were mutated version of the Toa self. Lore story aside, I didn't really see how it affected anything the Hordika arm let you swivel the elbow up and down if you wanted to use the gear, if not you could still move it around with the use of the gear knob on top of the shoulder, and it wasn't loose or anything in doing so.

I'll admit the new Modern/Reboot Bionicle gear here looks like a 5.0 upgrade of the former Toa Mata releases, but you could still see that the the arms are slightly loose on it's own due to the gear function.

I seriously no have major complaints here because hey were getting bionicles back

If anything the other arm was worse since it was a single piece.

Pohatu looks the coolest of the new bunch to me. Though damn, Gali got it on with that staff.

That mask having the purple high lights at the end is a really nice touch instead of just an all black mask.
