Tohst Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 Damn, but Doctor Inferno makes Ogel look like a rank amateur now. That has got to be one of the coolest LEGO playscenes I've ever seen. That is what last year's Hoth Echo Base set should have been built like I'm thinking of a Cobra Commander vs. Serpentor type relationship. With Ogel thinking 'how the heck is this guy doing my job better than me?' -Tohst - OGEL-LALALALALALALALALA! Quote
Algernon Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 Detailed impressions: The Agents submarine looks great. The design is slick, detailed, and navy blue- what more could we ask for? I wish Alpha Team had subs that looked this good. I kinda wish they had left out the claw on the front, though. Even so- I'm definitely getting this one, even if I have to forgo my beloved Mars Mission fund. However, the boat isn't all that great... more flick-fire missiles. I DO like the mini vehicles though, which appears to be a recurring theme with Agents. I'm not complaining. The volcano base looks great too! I'm most impressed because they build a realistic looking volcano structure using bricks rather than big pieces with decals or stickers. The big gate in the middle looks great, and I like the little transport leading to the Agent's demise. The laser gun is hilarious. It fits the theme, somehow, and yet it's so over-the-top. I like it. My only complaint is that the the base doesn't look like it'll have many features. Unless the back end of has an industrial complex that one of my agents can sneak through, I'll be a little disappointed that all I can do is net Dr. Inferno with my crappy agent helicopter... I'm definitely getting the sub though, and I'd seriously consider the base, provided it has more to it than we're being let in on. ;) Quote
Lord Of Pies Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 I am liking the look of the volcano base, all those trans orange bricks! Quote
Shoc Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 Anyone else notice the volcano base has a face? 8637 Volcano base! Anyone else notice the volcano base isn't much of a volcano but more a rocky fort of lava? :skull: Quote
Boonetrooper Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 Wait...Those special arms...Can you attach them to a 1x1 cylender? This could be revolutionary for my Samus MOC... Quote
WhySoSerious? Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 Those new sets look amazing! The volcanoe base looks really detailed and i think im in love with that sub Cant wait till these babys come out! Quote
Zechariah Legio Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 Smoking pic of the Volcano Base! Truly worthy of a place on my list! Quote
AwesomeStar Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 Anyone else notice the volcano base has a face? Anyone else notice the volcano base isn't much of a volcano but more a rocky fort of lava? :skull: Yeah, it DOES have a face! WEIRD! BTW - Shoc, your avatar's body and hood appeals to me. Tell me what set you got them from please? Quote
KDog Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 The Agents toys seem so 1990s to me, reminding me of the kind of action figures popular back then. I do love the trans-orange rock walls! Quote
Scouty Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 Wow, I'm in awe . Those are very well built sets! Quote
Pencoin Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 (edited) looks like im gonig to be skint for awhile even though these sets are great i DONT want TLC to realse another wave at the start of next years because i dont think ill be able to keep up but i dont mind summer '09 spots a bionicle piece not seen since he belives to be 2004 sold! Edited June 5, 2008 by Pencoin Quote
Plural Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 I'm digging all those trans orange slopes. I forsee a lot of lava related MOCs in the near future. Cool find. Quote
Athos Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 The volcano base looks interesting. Good source of different colored (burnt orange, maybe?) BURPS. Steve Quote
Norro Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 The Agents toys seem so 1990s to me, reminding me of the kind of action figures popular back then. I do love the trans-orange rock walls! I agree... Perhaps they've been in development for a long time... God Bless, Nathan Quote
yellost Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 AAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!HOLY CRAP! AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :wub: ...yes, I just totally dorked-out seeing that set. Damn, but Doctor Inferno makes Ogel look like a rank amateur now. That has got to be one of the coolest LEGO playscenes I've ever seen. That is what last year's Hoth Echo Base set should have been built like Not quite sure about putting lava in the Hoth base But I get what you mean... And totally agree. Quote
fugglewyg Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 Ohhh Mannnnnnnnnnnnnn !! More money to find Both sets look cool. i think agents is turning out to be maybe lego's best line ever. I have to have these sets and we haven't even had the first wave over here yet - darn. Overtime On....... Quote
Hinckley Posted June 5, 2008 Author Posted June 5, 2008 AAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!HOLY CRAP! AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :wub: ...yes, I just totally dorked-out seeing that set. Damn, but Doctor Inferno makes Ogel look like a rank amateur now. That has got to be one of the coolest LEGO playscenes I've ever seen. That is what last year's Hoth Echo Base set should have been built like You took the words right out of my mouth. Literally, that's exactly what I was going to say. I am also in love with this set. I can't wait for it to come out! One of my favorites of the year! Is it an exclusive? I hope it doesn't have a hoth base/dwarves' mine fate... Quote
Tacitus Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 I'm not too interested in the sub, but that Volcano base is awesome! I was hoping that Dr. Inferno would get a base. I think you can see it drawn faintly in in the background of the Turbo car chase set box picture. I wonder if that means that LEGO will do an oil-rig platform like the one pictured in the background on the speedboat box. The AGENTS line is so much better than I expected it would be. Quote
Skipper 24 Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 Awsome the lava base parts look really cool in that transorangy stuff good for mustafar!!! Yh all the sets look gerat anyways . nice theme much better than exo-force and good replacment for alpha team Quote
darkrebellion Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 (edited) Wow after looking at that pics I just think in two things: 1-The volcano base is the best playset I have seen made of lego. 2-I hope the TLC make an ultimate lightsaber duel with the detail they put in the volcano. Edited June 5, 2008 by darkrebellion Quote
Pencoin Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 <laughs> i guess the starwars mocers i taking a deep intrest in the volcano base i do see the potential though with the place in the second film and third film (preparse to be bashed by the starwars fans) Quote
brickbitz Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 I'm actually getting sadder the more I see Agent sets. That's because I now know I'll need them all and it's going to cost me another small fortune on top of the already large allocated summer LEGO budget. Good job I live by the seaside and don't need holidays.... Quote
Scyzoryk Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 OMFG OMFG OMFG OMFG OMFG OMFG OMFG OMFG OMFG OOOOOMMMMMMFFFFGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IIIIIII FFFFFFF********************* LLLLOOOOOOOOVVVVVVEEEEEEEE IIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ok im done-- Wait-- OMFG OMFG OMFG OMFG OMFG OMFG OMFG OMFG OMFG OOOOOMMMMMMFFFFGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ok im done now. Looking at the box art for Volcano Base, It looks kind of like Dwarves Mine. The mountain side I mean. It reminds me of it. Quote
