Lego Agents Mission 3 Gold Hunt review

Well being a G.I.Joe Sigma 6 fan, the Lego Agents were a dream come true. To have Lego sets where they fired guns, had a Mobile Command Center, and had awesome tech was awesome. The jet was one cool vehicle, while not on Sigma 6, it had a Sigma 6 look to it. And it still does. I love the Agents line, and this is one of the best Lego sets ever. Why? Read on.

The mini-figs included are Agent Fuse, Gold Tooth, and a henchman. Fuse and Gold Tooth were covered in this review, and the henchman in Mission 5.
Fuse includes no weapons, and has a helmet instead of his hairpiece. It stinks that Fuse doesn't have his hairpiece included in the set. Say I was a little kid that couldn't save up the money for the MCC, but I was given Mission 3 for my birthday. Well, when I played with my Agents, Fuse would be walking around with his helmet on all the time. This was one of the reasons I bought Mission 6 first, so that I could have the regular versions of the characters.

Gold Tooth includes a gold-plated pistol, but it the hairpiece is awesome! I can think of a thousand (Okay, maybe not that many.) ways to use this piece!
The henchman's sub-machine guns are awesome, even though they are a simple combination!

When I first saw the truck, I was like okay, whatever. It's a pick-up truck. A tall pick-up truck. the model is TALL! (See next two pictures.) None the less, I love this rig! There is nothing on it that should blow me away, but it does.

Gold Tooth: Me can't get in me truck because henchman stole me ladder!

The box shows that when you hit the target, the gold flies of the truck. Listen well, kids. What you see is not always what you get. I knew it was hype, but, hey, a guy can dream!

The back of the pick-up has a turning seat for the henchman to sit in, and fire his guns. Not a bad feature, but not a great one, either.

The missiles are a little crazy. They look more like laser cannons than missiles, besides where is the engine?

The plane. Wow. I love the design of this toy! (It strikes amazing resemblance to a blue angel!)

A look at the bottom of the plane.

You need to hold the plane a certain way to get both missiles to fire at the same time. This is the best way.

A picture of the jet's thruster. I've heard of barrel rolls, but this is ridiculous.

One seat in the cockpit, but you can store gear back there. (If Fuse came with any, mind you.)

One instruction manual.

Box shot. I forgot to take a picture of the comic strip this time, but you can see it here.

Power Miners Mine Mech review

Yeah, I know, I'm late getting this up again.

If there was any Power Miners (PM) set, I wouldn't buy, it would be this one. I mean, It's weird-looking, it's driven by an old man (Brains), and it's from Power Miners! Power Miners is wried! They go underground and attacked by rock monsters, that are smaller than them! And the monsters have no weapons of any sort! (I'm just glad that the monsters will getting better in Summer. Then I might reconsider.) The only reason I bought this was the fact that I had a Wal-Mart gift card for ten bucks, and I noticed this set had a dynamite bundle, which I've been wanting. Sorry if this review is a bit on the negative side.

Brains is part of the reason I was turned off to PM. He's an old man! Why is the government going to send an old man to fight rock monsters? Actually, I like his body and blue helmet. They both look pretty cool. When you turn his head around, it reveals a scared face. If these are a bunch of brave men, why pray tell, every time you turn their heads, they are freaked out?!?

Blouderax is weird! If we were gonna have rock monsters, they could at least looked cooler. Oh, well. The crystal was a piece that I didn't have, and it looks neat. It'll go well on some customs.

The crystal does fit in Boulderax's mouth. (Note, it doesn't stick up as high as it looks in the picture. I put the crystal on Brain's head, and put both in his mouth so you could see the crystal.)

Size comparison. When I pulled Boulderax out of the box, I yelled, "Good Grief! That's a small rock monster!" I mean, sheesh, these rock monsters aren't a match for the miners, whither the miners are using their machines or not! It's pathetic! I almost feel sorry for these things! (Almost.)

The tools are included are a pick ax and a bundle of DIN-O-MITE! The dynamite lives up to Lego fan's expectations, it's a very study and cool-looking piece. (Besides it's the only weapon the Power Miner have.)

The dynamite does fit in boulderax's mouth, which makes this set a little more fun. ;)

Now for the mech itself. Oh, boy. Why isn't this mech like the Exo-Force mechs? Nuts. This a major disappointment.

From what they tell me, the claw is made of Bionicle pieces. I say it looks weird, Bionicle pieces or not.

The rock cutter tool bis simply a cutter on a stick. Nothing to see here.

Lego Agents Mission 7: Deep Sea Quest Review

Okay, let me start by saying that I'm sorry that I didn't get this up sooner. Most have heard about the winter storm that hit part of the U.S. Guess who got stuck in that mess? Me. Ice took the power lines down, so I couldn't get on the computer. Oh, well.

The Deep Sea Quest started out as a set that was available only in countries, foreign to the U.S. Thankfully, Target brought it out as a store exclusive. Let me say, that I don't really like sets that have to do with diving, boats, or anything to that effect, so I will be a little negative on this review.

The mini-figures are Diver Chase, Charge, Break Jaw, and Slime Face. Chase got his spot in this review, and Charge and Break Jaw, here. Chase includes an oxygen tank and , of course, his diving helmet.

Slime Face: The highlight of this set. Slime Face is awesome! His head is great-looking and the slime on his wet-suit is an awesome detail!

A good look at his head.

Slime Face's sea scooter is okay, nothing to talk about.

Chase's scooter is too big, and it looks weird. Lego could have done much better.

The octopus guardian. Well, who's going to let an octopus guard their treasure? BTW, it also glows in the dark. Which is neat, but at night, it freaks me out when I see the light at the left end of the toy shelf.

Break Jaw's boat. Wow. The design is sleek, and it looks almost like a coast guard boat.

There is a rack for the binoculars and harpoon gun on the bow.

In the stern we have a missile. An okay feature, I guess.

The missile's targeting computer.

The Agents' sub is the centerpiece of the set. I'm not really that impressed. It's just a sub.


The front where the claw is, opens to reveal a compartment to store the treasure chest.

The front part has hidden missiles.


The computer is a slanted brick with a sticker.

Chase's sea scooter can be placed into the back of the Agents' sub. When done, the scooter looks like an propeller. Too bad the Inferno scooter doesn't attach to the Inferno ship.

Two instruction manuals. One covers the treasure chest, sea scooters,Inferno boat, and half of the Agents' sub. Two covers the other half of the Agents' sub.

Box shot. Sorry about the flash.

Comic strip.

Playability: 4 out of 5

Money Value:5 out of 5

Overall: 4 out of 5

I should give it a 3, because as I said, I'm not a fan of water-themed toys. The only reason I gave it a four is because of Slime-Face. If you don't like Slime-Face, don't buy this set, unless you really like some other feature on it.

Next, the Power Miners Mine Mech.
