Lewa Nuva is back and ready for battle in a new and massively powerful battlecruiser!

If the names “Lewa Nuva” and “Midak Brotherhood” mean anything to you, then the new Bionicle Axalara T9 from LEGO should be the very next toy on your Christmas wish list this year! In this brand-new LEGO set, Lewa Nuva is back and ready for battle in a massively powerful battlecruiser, the Axalara T9.

The cruiser features not one but two Midak Skyblasters, as well as tri-arms featuring lasers and cool force-field generators. Its mission is to smash the Brotherhood of Makuta while there is still enough time to save the universe from total annihilation.

The set includes a special edition Lew Nuva figure, as well as landing gear you can raise and lower yourself. The sides of the model open to reveal the dual Midak Skyblasters that really fire at enemies and their craft. You can then turn the gear on its side to open and close the tri-arms. Simply hold the handle underneath the model to fly the Axalara T9. Lewa Nuva is awesome and powerful, and stands 7.5 inches high. His battlecruiser measures over 20 inches (50 centimetres) long and 13 inches (33 centimetres) high.
