If anybody could tell me what BIONICLE this is I’d greatly appreciate it, it’s driving me mad! 😡

My answer totally springboards off of Alexander "Hawk-Eyes" O'Mara's astute observation of its suspected authenticity. Nice job Alex.
I looked up BIONICLE knock-offs and got a video that named the brand as "конструктор последний воин", then Google Image searched that phrase for a pic of our Greenie Meanie, and Voila!:
Google translates the Russian/Mongolian to:
"конструктор последний воин":
"Builder of the Last Warrior".
And this guy is named "ЛИЗОРД":
"Lizord" or Lizard.
The toy maker is, "1Toy Растем вместе!":
"1Toy Growing Together!".
There seems to be an entire, Builder of the Last Warrior line, with at least one dedicated community called RUSBIONICLE.

1Impressive investigative work! I gave up after a Google image search yielded no results. Sep 29, 2018 at 21:29

Thanks heaps Rin and Alexander! This was kinda surprising, but I was starting to suspect it may have been a knockoff. It just seemed like LEGO quality. Cheers 🍻– JaiSep 30, 2018 at 2:25

Thank you for this! This question was keeping me up last night, and I just couldn't find a match. I started suspecting it was a clone, but I'm not familiar with clones for Bionicle sets. Great work by both you and Alexander! Sep 30, 2018 at 19:23
It's not a BIONICLE set or a LEGO set. The pins and axles aren't right for an official LEGO set, so I think this is some random BIONICLE-look-alike set by another brand.
LEGO pins would have a round center, not a flat one:
This axle hole in his hand appear rotated 45 degrees off the LEGO piece that looks like this.
I've never seen a LEGO piece that looked like this:
