Got this on Wednesday and its the funnest Lego Truck I've ever constructed:
First. Meet the cast:
Agents: Charge, Chase, Trace & Fuse
Villians: Saw-Fist, Spy-Clops, Gold Tooth & Dr Inferno
At first I thought it was pricey but the finished product took me about 5 hours to build. I like to take my time and savour the moment. With the length of construction meant the truck was a LOT bigger than I thought.
To pronounce the size of this truck here it is next to MP04:
It's the same height and MP04 just beats it's length by a centimeter. Here it is open with all the fun goodies inside in base mode:
The truck cab is great. Lovely curves and sturdy. The roof is on a hinge to get your minifigs into one of two seats. Also the grille on the front folds down to reveal four non-launching missiles.
The curved front of the trailer folds out into a launching bay for the jet (with folding tail and wings) with two seats and computers for the take-off (The heli-jetpack is from the small set but looked cool with it). The Roof of the truck opens via hinges and features 2 radar dishes and 4 missiles. The Jetski gets stored in a sliding dock at the back of the truck, the Buggy and Speedboat is stored on the underside of the trailer. The quad-bike is stored inside the trailer and is hoisted on and off by the rotating crane. There are small cabinets, drawers and compartments for plenty (about 20) tools and weapons and two laptops (new?). The projector works a treat and has a nice retro sepia tone with grain when projected. There's a small prison for captured baddies with a breakeable escape wall at the back of the truck which I made a little diorama of below:
Please note the snow-mobile is not part of this set, just looked good together.
I noticed that Target had 8636: Agents Deep Sea Quest set. I guess they will have the exclusive on that one?
Also found the new Creators and Mars Mission sets. Was so tempted to get them all but my wallet was screaming at me to be merciful:
Will be acquiring the 7644 next and eventually 7646 and 7649 (will TRU have exclusive on 7649?) to complete my personal Mars Mission favorites.
