Eljay's Recap Review: 8991 Tuma

[@borip765]

The mighty Tumor

[@diegodankquixote-wry3242]

It's not a tuma!

[@poikapi062]

So thaaaaaat's why his back hurts. Also: *"IT'S NOT A TUMA!"*

[@declanng7465]

i laughed so hard reading that

[@carliewonder75]

@@diegodankquixote-wry3242 ITS TUMA

[@miqo6453]

Am I the only one who always thought tumas head looked like the movie representation of nidhiki

[@karldettlinger467]

It does!

[@IamEscBoy]

no

[@karldettlinger467]

To me it is at least. A eye of the beholder situation, I guess.

[@IamEscBoy]

it does look like nidhiki

[@karldettlinger467]

THen why did u say no?

[@shonenbag6478]

Set: Breathes Eljay: "Just because there are pros and cons in this video..."

[@MapleLeafAce]

Even 4 years later I still hate how he opens every video like that.

[@ReeksofChees3]

@@MapleLeafAce still better than a sponsored segment imo

[@DanielAyy]

Set: Breathes Me: 😳

[@Ignik208]

It's so nice of you that you decided to re-record this review for us. It really shows that you care about the audience ;)

[@borip765]

Or because people are really really loud and piercing about Bionicle.

[@rellko3900]

As a kid, I always thought he was saying “I AM THE MIGHTY TUNA” and I was extremely confused...

[@thegio3553]

I laughed way too hard at this.😀😂

[@vulpescorvum7602]

Great joke...now I'm hungry....

[@jacobpeet1329]

I thought he said he was a tumor

[@darkreflection9087]

Well now I want a MIGHTY TUNA SANDWICH

[@GringatTheRepugnant]

Gen1 does have other sets that used stickers, but they were the system-based playsets with bionicle minifigures. Tuma was the only technic-built character with stickers.

[@gabem4208]

this was my second bionicle set. got it at a bowling ally

[@fullmetalguy8357]

I wish they did a little more for his arms, they just feel so basic. Especially the left arm, they could have added a modified Skrall shield to add to the aesthetic. Otherwise I don't mind the gaps at all and the lime-green + black looks great.

[@KaltatheNobleMind]

other reviewers would have left a small annotation and leave the correction as that but Eljay and by extention +The TTV Channel went above and beyond the call of duty to remake the reveiw with the error itself corrected! this is why we love you and give us hope for the future of geek/fan journalism:)

[@aight9151]

was there an error?

[@KaltatheNobleMind]

Lernusia259 very small one. Times legs were built wrong which restricted hip movement. Eljay posted an annotation denoting the error but decided it wasn't good enough and so remade it. The build error in question was him attaching a hip joint by its axle hole which kept it locked in place rather than the peg hole to.let it swing freely.

[@aight9151]

ah ok, good to hear thanks for explaining

[@TheTTVChannel]

To anyone asking "why was this reuploaded?", please address any and all questions to the people who continued to point out a hip construction error that I had attempted to address with an annotation. Enjoy everyone, and apologies for the prior error.

[@Nailfut]

The TTV Channel man, now I feel bad I bashed against your previous build of the legs

[@potatolord9715]

The TTV Channel hello! After stronius, which guy are you going to do next?

[@potatolord9715]

The TTV Channel also, your my favorite KZbinr.

[@neon_lavander]

[@godzillacc5]

The TTV Channel sorry for being annoying, but i just wanted to point it out. thanks for this re-upload btw

[@Echo_Reyes]

Sentence: a weekend in hell with tuma

[@voidjockey82]

Echo Reyes THE MIGHTY TUMA!

[@karltrebla4083]

I can't be the only one who thought that tuma looked like a butterfly when i was little, right?

[@heyguysiguessthatsit4610]

THE BUTTERFLY OF DOOM

[@christianlewis6789]

No, you aren't the only one, although I first saw it as the blades were more meant to look like crystals when seen from the direct front or back (rock and cave related things, of course)

[@omegaknight6421]

The mighty tuma's greatest weakness Having a bad back

[@makutamiserix5612]

I am going to enjoy tearing that fancy mask FROM YOUR FACE!

[@joshmariotti2844]

behold the mighty tumer

[@alfredstromberger9529]

The beginning sketch 😂😂😂

[@creeperdude3027]

I actually like Tuma. Aside from the gaps and sticker problems, he's decently solid👌😄

[@_GShock_]

Legend says ttv channel still hasn't mentioned a set not being gappy as a con XD

[@terronicle545]

Tuma is probably my favorite 2009 set

[@TekoMythmaster]

If it makes you feel better Eljay I realized my Tuma has been incorrectly built since 2009 as well, it's fixed now.

[@takanuinuva]

What was built incorrectly? I didn't see the first upload.

[@TekoMythmaster]

The "Glatoran Necks" that attach his legs at the back, originally he had them connected by the axle hole onto the main axle, meaning they couldn't rotate interdependently and thus limited his leg movement. The correct build connects the axles by the Glatoran Neck's pin holes, meaning they can rotate independently of each other and the axle itself.

[@Kostas.mp3]

I did that too :p

[@cefirodewinter9086]

It looks like Zeus from real steel btw its one of my favourite bionicle set of all time

[@DanielAyy]

Looks more like the fallen from transformers 2

[@Zielb]

This review seems better than the old one

[@iliekmemesiliekmemes5935]

So if hes mighty why was he defeated sooo easily what he has scoliosis 😂😂

[@todddavis2041]

I wanted to get back in the day but didn't, now I regret. Hope I get a chance one day thought!

[@TobyEchozap]

fantastic review eljay, one of my favourte yet.

[@connieling9020]

That helmet would make a great mutated Nidihki mask

[@indominusvader31]

I got this for Christmas in 2009 and my aunt sat on him on the day I got him, breaking his joints, I never had the chance to really play with him

[@solekman916]

Aren't the lime green glatorian hands recolors?

[@thisismychannel8140]

Hey, Eljay. Will you ever be doing a tutorial about making sprite comics like the sprite comics on BZPower?

[@hazbaska1]

i wish they made the green shield!!! what a loss!

[@malrogthebeserker3166]

ITS NOT A TUMA! Get it..?

[@magnablocker]

Hey Eljay, at the end of the 2010 reviews will you do hero factory or end the recap reviews?

[@KaltatheNobleMind]

i personally hope so as it came to light that hero factory was made in direct response to fan comment and criticism of bionicle, specifically picking out the most celebrated elements and i think fixing the shortcomings:). would love to see how they compare and contrast the two themes.

[@DanielAyy]

I hope he does one day

[@lonesentinel2636]

Tuma actually looks really good, sort of an intelligent Krekka, should have bought more Glatorian era sets. :/

[@sebastianomar0205]

Glatorian Legends* but same here i didnt even got a Agori

[@Quakecon-s9r]

the "DISCLAIMER" part gets kinda annoying after hearing it in every review dude. anyways. great review. nice quality

[@whywhywhhyy2650]

i really like tumas design and colour scheme

[@Unhappy-on8hg]

This one looks great among 09's bionicle

[@mrkicker11181]

I do believe the rahi from 2001 had stickers

[@spoonsrattling]

they did not to my knowledge that was when everything was pretty much a print

[@styrofoam9981]

mrkicker11181 Nah they didn't The only 01rahi I don't have are the manas, and they didn't have stickers, nor any of the others

[@they3lloax060]

In the movie, Tuma had a green skrall shield

[@SuperSecretBricks]

Andy: Big Tuna is a super ambitious guy, you know, cut your throat to get ahead type of guy. But, I mean, I'm not threatened by him. I went to Cornell.

[@sooperspeedy]

I see you fixed the leg problem

[@simplemonks7858]

Tuma reminds me of General greivous

[@royalewolf2.099]

Love tuma I wish him for my birthday

[@Mate397]

Took me this video to notice my Tuma didn't get the launcher when I built it.

[@0mn0m8w31rdc4ndy]

Lol

[@mislavgrosinic5584]

The green mantax feet came with lewa phantoka first

[@CT-Irodion]

No, the Mantax feet for Lewa Phantoka were grey.

[@Mesanyx]

THE MIGHTY TUMA!!!

[@mislavgrosinic5584]

Tuma has 2 counters , so he has double the health?

[@JJAG3]

I loved tuma

[@carumsarene]

Earlier Bionicle Sets with Stickers: •2001 Tarakava •2001 Kane Ra •2001 Manas (The rahi with longer beams, they had yellow → stickers on them)

[@TheRyder8000diamonds]

the muaka and kane-ra sets do not own any stickers because they only have Printed pieces, so you wouldn't have to put stickers on them. the Manas, The nui rama, the nui jaga and the Tarakava also do not include stickers.

[@styrofoam9981]

Carum Sarene The arrow tiles are prints, and the tarakava just don't have anything resembling a print

[@theonewiththename5867]

the mighty tuna huh

[@magmorix3883]

So Thornax was like mega paintball

[@sherrymorris5542]

I love Bionicle I don’t know why Lego dumped it

[@deanthe3684]

the bionicle stars skrall is green

[@Sunaki1000]

But it cam after the Tumaset.

[@Nexoko]

I had also builded him wrong...so I couldnt move his legs that much

[@spoonsrattling]

theres a lot of blue shine in this video or is it just me.
