Robo Attacks!It was a typical day at Lego City. The birds are chirping, the sun is shining, the construction team is building
another Fire Station and some tourist are snapping away.
Tourist 1: Smile! Both of you look lovely as a couple!
Tourist 2 & 3:
Tourist 1: Gee, why the sudden change of face? ... Oh man not again, those darn rain clouds are here again! First sunny now cloudy!
Tourist 1: WHAT THE F@@#! WHAT THE H%%@ IS THAT THING!!
Dr. Inferno: IT'S ME, DR. INFERNO! and I shall enjoy laying waste to your lovely city! Ahhh I just love scared Legomen running around with their scared faces on!
Dr. Inferno: It's even better when you can grab 1 of them and lift them in the air! Yes, yes YES!!! SCREAM BABY!
Alerted to the distress call, Agent Trace races to the scene in her mini jet to see what is going on. Try as she might the robot is proving too tough for her to attack alone.
Trace: All agents! I have a big-ass Robot of death here! I need more than my little jet to bring him down!
Chase: I'm on my way in my quad. Keep him distracted so that I may disable him ala-Empire-Strikes-Back!
Charge: I just took off with the ADU. Like Chase said, keep him busy!
Trace: Hurry up! His aim is getting better!
Chase: Now to throw a hook onto his legs...
Chase: ... drive around him like mad to entangle the legs...
Chase: ... and down the giant goes!!
Now to pop open the hatch and arrest his vile villain!
Chase: Errr.... that's not what I think it should happen
Inferno: Surprised?
I watched the Empire Strikes Back too! You think your simple tie rope can stop me?! The mayhem just started!
Dr. Inferno: That's right Chase, RUN!!! Boy I am loving it!
Chase: F@@@! F###! F%%%! I am soo dead!!
Dr. Inferno: Letting him run is so boring! Why not grab him and grille him alive!!
Chase: F@#!$!@$@!$@!#@!
Dr. Inferno: Ah Agent Chase. It's ironic that the 'chase' has finally got to you. Your puny little pop-gun won't help against my bullet-proof glass dome, nothing will!
Chase: I'm SCREWED!!!!!
Dr. Inferno: It's even sadder your friends is not here to help you. Any last words?
Chase: F@@# YOU!
Dr. Inferno: As a major charactor for a famous toyline you seem so say such terrible words. What wonders can desperation make some people say! Maybe since this is a mostly AFOL site such words are allowed.
Chase: Look! Behind you!
Dr. Inferno: Oh please Chase, I am not going to fall for that trick. It's the oldest one in history!
Charge: Maybe you SHOULD look behind Inferno!
BOOM!Dr. Inferno: I have been ... defeated! Darn you agents! What's this? The Agents are cloning themselves!?!? I am seeing things? How come there are 2 Chases?
Chase 2: I'm from the ADU set. I
am a major charactor you know.
Chase: Now it's your turn to scream for mercy Inferno! Please help youself with your hands up to your cell in the mobile command center.
Dr. Inferno: With great pleasure!! But instead I will go back home instead! Bye bye!
Chase: Aww crap not again! This guy is getting too smart!
Dr. Inferno: The best villains always have an escape plan!
ConclusionDesign: 10/10 Lego always havae robots, but there are mostly confine to the space theme and does not do much except maybe walk from one point of another. This robot on the other hand, have all the trademarks of a highly destructive robot of destruction with a cool villain to boot!
Parts: 10/10 This set is an amazing source of parts to make other more destructive robots of death! The joints are very very useful for mech MOCS and the large dome can make a good submarine front window.
Minifigures: 9/10 The agents minifigures are quite normal, but the civilian one are great; especially the one with the sunglasses and Hawaiian shirt. All have a scared face behind, ready to scream in fear should the need arises.
Playability: 10/10 Lego sets usually does not condone acts of violence, so to see such a set with a rampaging robot with a flamer is AWESOME! You can have the entire agent battalion battle this bad boy out or go up against your clone/droid troopers! It is also an added plus that the robot is highly pose-able and is stable.
Price: 8/10 It is RM 250 for roughly 440+ parts, but IHMO it is quite cheap and worth it since it has a very good play value. Now all police sets have something to fight with!
Conclusion: 10/10 Get this set. Really, it's that good! The maniacal smile on Dr. Inferno shows he is having a gala time wrecking havoc to Lego City. No wonder TLG included a new fire set this year, the fire dept could not keep up to all the buildings he set aflame!
