My son had been asking for this item for over 2 years.....Brand new it was way too much money! I took a chance and ordered this item as used....had never done that before. I was extremely pleased with the purchase! The item arrived on time within expected delivery dates and was in the exact specified condition! Very pleased and would purchase again in the future from this seller!

Vultraz is not too interesting, to blandly state things. The build is not so enjoyable, the design is a mite boring, and the features are stilted. That said, it is quite a bit less pricey than the larger vehicles, which sport intricate designs and constructions but horrendously huge pricetags. It is also more fun to play with than the canister sets of this year. Thus, it resides in a direct middle ground: if you cannot afford the larger vehicles but desire a Bionicle set, Vultraz is the prime choice. If you can manage a greater economic setback, skip this one and nab a Jetrax or Rockoh.
