May 31, 201410 yr It is out on the App Store, I just downloaded it and played it all, got 100%, 3 stars in all games, and the nice surprise of ALTERNATE INSTRUCTIONS FOR EACH SET!!! Yep. Definitely worth getting. If you need any help with anything, just ask. Oh, and a tip: look at your tools: if they have a Red glow, use another tool.
May 31, 201410 yr Sometimes I can't pull out tools for an entire mission! How are the alternate builds?

Definitely worth getting. If you need any help with anything, just ask. Oh, and a tip: look at your tools: if they have a Red glow, use another tool. Thank you for the information! Sounds like a quick and easy game, which seems a little disappointing to me compared to it's Agents predecessor on the LEGO website. I'll look into it before reviewing the sets!
May 31, 201410 yr Hmm. Whenever I hear 'mysterious holographic hooded figure' I immediately think of Darth Sidious/Palpatine from the Prequel Star Wars trilogy... It would be very nice to get a second wave. There are only two or three smaller sets that I like from this wave, but I like the idea of having another wave of sets.
May 31, 201410 yr Sometimes I can't pull out tools for an entire mission! How are the alternate builds? A hover thingy for riverside raid, Goodies. A turret for tremor track, Baddies An AWESOME miniplane for Infearno interception, Goodies. A kind of jet for toxxita, this is the best alternate, Baddies. A car for Hurricane heist, Baddies. A kinda dumb miniplane for Hq. Goodies.
June 1, 201410 yr Just back from the semi annual scrum of set launches at TRU HK. It gets pretty hectic as its full of scalpers bulk buying to real in China. Ultra agents absolutely flying off the shelves, all sold out in 5 minutes. Problem compounded by TRU making this the big H2 launch but not carrying much inventory. I think TRU expected to sell a lot of super heroes and Chima but they were sticking to the shelves. 6 months ago nothing was selling out, 12 months ago was all about super heroes, and 18 months ago the hit was ninja go. So my conclusion is, there is a potential hit line here. I love the truck concept but it would be a lot cooler if the cab was a giant transforming robot
June 1, 201410 yr I would be very disappointed if there wasn't at least a second wave that resolves the plot.
June 1, 201410 yr Played through the very cheesy game. The alternate builds are meh, and so are the games. Although I quite liked the story with the purple stuff and the hooded dude.
June 1, 201410 yr Got the Tremor set the other day. Haven't built it yet, but I'm excited to do so. I think this is going to be one of the rare themes where I get (or attempt to, anyway) all the sets. They're all just so good.
June 2, 201410 yr Bought infearno interception today, amazing! Like a Blade Runner spinner crossed with Tron.
June 2, 201410 yr Anyone else getting a Metal Gear vibe from Psyclone's flying machine when it's in walking mode? Pretty sure the guys helmet owes a bit of inspiration to the 80's cartoon MASK too. Well...it got my money Edited June 2, 201410 yr by TheBrickHitHouse
June 4, 201410 yr I love the truck concept but it would be a lot cooler if the cab was a giant transforming robot Well yeah! Everything is cooler when it's a giant transforming robot. Unless it's a giant fire breathing lizard. Ok a giant transforming robot punching out a giant fire breathing lizard would still be cooler. The truck is a great set. Not quite to the levels of some other classic Tom Stafford Mobile HQ's like the original or the amazing Alien Conquest one. But still a fantastic set. I think the Infearno set is the best of the line. Great villain and that strange Blade Runner/Tron car is far more entertaining then I would have thought.
June 4, 201410 yr Personally, I prefer this Mission HQ to the Alien Conquest one, both of which I currently own. It has a better cab, better villain, and I think the foldout feature is more entertaining than flipping open the roof of the back side. (the Alien Conquest set was still amazing, however.)
June 4, 201410 yr I too got Interception, and it's fantastic! Infearno is even better in person, and the car is great, too. The only problem with it is that the front wheels (brick-built cores with roatating hubs) don't roll, since the hubs are about the same size as the cores.

Well, I don't have this new truck, but I loved the AC truck!!! One of my favorite sets for play value, and I think from the photos, that it visually looks better than this Agents truck... Are there any reviews for theses Agents sets? They'd help me decide....
June 4, 201410 yr Ultra Agents site is up and running. http://www.lego.com/en-gb/ultraagents?icmp=COUKFRUltraAgents
June 4, 201410 yr It works for me. I was hoping the site would list the alternate builds, but it looks like you can only access them through the app. :/
June 4, 201410 yr I can't use the map either. :/ On a positive note, I got the Toxikita set today. Much much better than I anticipated. And Toxikita. <3
June 4, 201410 yr Try accessing the UA site from the Products page and going to the map. It worked for me that way, oddly enough. Sort of cheesy how the danger level is listed as "code red" (no period/full stop after it) for each area. Edited June 4, 201410 yr by 8BrickMario
June 5, 201410 yr I got Tremor Track Infiltration the other day, and I'm actually really happy with it. There were a lot of pieces that I didn't realize the set even had!
