Behold, one of the best Bionicle sets of all time! At least, that is the general consensus about this particular model.
Maxilos is one of the very few Bionicle sets to have both shoulder and waist articulation. You'd be surprised to hear that from the hundreds of constraction figures and combiner models that LEGO® has produced in two decades, only a couple of them have shoulder articulation and less than thirty have waist articulation (the majority of these being CCBS, which came out after gen 1 Bionicle).
I had to wait about a year before I could snag a sealed box from Bricklink. Most of these (larger, boxed) Bionicle sets are always in a continuous cycle of ebb and flow on the aftermarket. Sometimes there are plenty of them available, sometimes there can be years of none. That said, the 2007 lineup is truly among my favorite in the line.
That's it for today - I'll see you guys again tomorrow, with our annual tradition of the Year Summary!
