Ralph Posted May 1, 2011 Posted May 1, 2011 Thanks for the review Buddy. Not sure what I think about this theme, I like the aliens but the ADU figs don't really do anything for me. I will certainly purchase a few of the sets to add some aliens to my collection, and to get some of more of the lime green parts. Ralph Way cool! Ralph Quote
Splat Posted May 2, 2011 Posted May 2, 2011 (edited) I swear when I first saw that alien my first thought was it was the baddies from The Fifth Element It looks just like em I agree, the alien looks like the Mangalores from Fifth Element: The colour scheme of the green/red/magenta also looks similar those used in Invader Zim Edited October 13, 2012 by Splat Quote
lightningtiger Posted May 2, 2011 Posted May 2, 2011 Thanks 'buddy' for this review, I like the ADU soldier but that gun gives me the feeling of Battlefield Earth ! A simple alien flyer too, I guess these will be popular with 6 year olds and grandparents trying to get out of it on the cheap when it comes to buying Lego ! I might get one set for my son to have the figures. Keep on tracking those aliens ! (The truth is out there ) Quote
SilentMode Posted May 3, 2011 Posted May 3, 2011 (edited) Thanks to the tip-off, I bought one of these today. It was the only set out of the five or so on offer that appealed to me, although I almost bought the buggy. It's definitely worth it to get hold of the new figures, although I would have liked an extra gun. Edited May 4, 2011 by SilentMode Quote
meyerc13 Posted June 18, 2011 Posted June 18, 2011 My son picked up this set today at Toys R Us. This is a great set to pick up, especially during a sale like today's BOGO50%Off. The alien's ship isn't particularly great, but the parts are nice. The best thing about this set it picking up an alien and an ADU for $5. During the current sale, it's two minifigs and some parts for $3.75, which is only a quarter more than TRU's new regular price on the collectible minifigs! What a great deal. Quote
Ogre Posted July 3, 2011 Posted July 3, 2011 Great little set. Two cool minifigs and a spiffy little flyer for $6.99CDN. I can totally live with that. Since CMFs go for $3.49 here, the price is rather like getting the ship for free. IMO, this is quite definitely an 'army builder' set, especially if you can snag these during a 'BOGO 50% off' sale. I think this will end up being one of the most popular sets from the line, too. Just think about an 'alien invasion' with all of these little ships zipping around, causing havoc! I already have six of these sets and I have the feeling that anytime I have a couple of extra bucks, I'll be picking up more. Quote
Scorpiox Posted July 10, 2011 Posted July 10, 2011 Such a lovely little set! The alien and the new gun are my highlights, the whole thing fits pretty well with SP3. Thanks for the great review! Quote
