Overall Fero and Skirmix is a fairly decent set but I can't fully recommend it to you, sure it is a good set but it isn't fantastic either.

Honestly, I cannot wholly recommend this set if you already have the pieces to build Skirmix from other sets. Granted, he is fun to play with, but as one of the bigger sets, I was half expecting something different, especially since he is toted under the label "Special Edition." What makes them so special anyway that they could not just be released at any store that sells BIONICLE sets?
