Skopio XV-1

The Skopio XV-1 is a massive vehicle designed and piloted by Telluris.

History
Telluris based the design of the Skopio XV-1 on the Skopio, a creature native to Spherus Magna. The vehicle is more or less a war machine, and is intended to be used against enemy caravans and creatures by Telluris.

After the Shattering, Telluris was isolated on Bara Magna, and now uses the Skopio XV-1 to traverse the wastelands, shunned by the rest of society for fear of carrying the mysterious plague that wiped most of his tribe out.

Features
The Skopio XV-1 features the ability to travel using its four mechanical legs. It can also fold these legs up, activating the treads and allowing for greater speed. It also possesses a Thornax Launcher and two force blasters for offensive power, allowing for effective long and close-range attacks.

Set Information
The Skopio XV-1 was released as a large boxed set in the summer of 2009 as set number 8996, and contains Telluris as its rider. It also has two Life Counters for use in the BIONICLE Action Figure Game. It contains 849 pieces. It is also tied with the Manas as the most expensive set.
