I shared my thoughts on the new LEGO Agents sets a couple days ago, but nobody had posted reviews of any of the larger sets yet.
Gil Shaw now has photo reviews of 8630 Gold Hunt and 8635 Mobile Command Center.
8630 Mission 3: Gold Hunt:
My observations (click the picture for Gil’s review on Flickr):
- Gold flat-top hair, in addition to the gold gun.
- The plane is actually kind of cool.
- SpyClops, the dude with spider legs, has a head that would work as night vision goggles.
8635 Mission 6: Mobile Command Center:
My observations (click the picture for Gil’s review on Flickr):
- The semi truck is just massive!
- Drawers in a non-Belville set.
- Not one but two laptop computers.
- More play features and mini-vehicles than you can shake a stick at.
Umm… hat guy’s hair is gold. interesting.
There have been drawers in non-Belville sets before, I have one from when I was a child.
I always thought the jet was cool, but that “jeep” is one of the ugliest things ever.
So many cheese graters. Mmmmmm
Meh. I want a tan flat top.
The picture of the jeep is misleading. He swapped out the wheels. I think the jeep in the set is extremely ugly, but it looks really nice just with the wheels swapped.
I bought the mobile command center a few days a go, and its really kind of small, and it definitly shouldn’t be $150 in Australian currency on lego.com, i got it for $100 somewhere else. its still good though
