LEGO BIONICLE 8590 Rahkshi Guurahk | speed build

[@colinroberts2060]

As with each of the Rahkshi in their respective colors, Guurahk head, capsule lid and feet are a metallicized version of Mata blue known as "Pearl blue". While I didn't have this set, I did obtain the head in a Bionicle "Parts tub" (6638) from 2006, and the other parts in that color appeared in two other Parts tubs (8715 and 6620) between then. The end parts of Guurahk's "Staff of Disintengration" were later repurposed for the "Tidal Staff" on Rahaga Gaaki (4868) in 2005, and also for another Matoran-sized set (8722) and two minifigure-scale sets (8624 and 8894) during 2006. This part was actually brought back for the theme's short-lived reboot in 2015 before being phased out again. Guurahk was also the only Rahkshi whose spine fin appears outside of Bionicle, appearing recolored in white as part of the "Midgard Serpent" in a "Vikings" set (7018) in 2005, before being phased out. Guurahk would've been the largest set to have the hand sockets in Mata blue, though they would also come in a Titan-size set (8595) released around the same time. They would also appear in a Visorak (8747) from '05 before being phased out entirely. But that's part of a different story...

I've always wanted a Rahksi in my collection, specifically a green one (my favorite color)

I have most of this set, just missing a few parts. Good choice of music as it fits in well with Bionicle.
