Capture the evil Dr. Inferno and keep tabs on his henchmen with Lego Agents Set 8635. Tons of secret spy technology is packed inside the Mobile Command Center truck to ensure that each mission becomes a unique, imaginative adventure. This building set contains small parts and complex instructions, so it is recommended for ages 8 to 14. And like all advanced Lego sets, it also holds the potential to keep creative adults entertained for hours.

What We Think Fun Factor: Durability: (what this means) The Good: Mobile Command Center packed with spy technology The Bad: Hinges can come apart during transport In a Nutshell: Fun building set inspires action-packed imaginative play At a Glance Ages: 8 to 14 Requires: (includes batteries)

Dr. Inferno is trapped in the jail. View larger.

With its hatches closed, the command center looks like an ordinary truck. View Larger.

Your Mission: Prevent Dr. Inferno's Escape
In undercover mode, the mobile command center looks like a big gray and blue tractor trailer. But look closely and you'll find hatches that open up to reveal an interior packed with the latest spy technology and top-secret information. There's even a state-of-the-art prison cell designed to hold the evil Dr. Inferno, as well as a working mission brief projector that uses an LED light to display Inferno's image on the wall.

Seven included Lego figures, a jet plane, and two cars make it easy to set up epic battles between the command center's employees and Dr. Inferno's henchmen, who have arrived to set him free. The Spy Clops figure, along with Gold Tooth, and Agents Chase, Fuse, Charge, and Trace, are uniquely detailed and ready for action. Inside the center, a tool shop, loading crane, and hidden weapons bay packed with missiles and blasters are in place to keep them busy.

Crafting the Command Center
With 20 bags containing 1,154 pieces and four books of instructions, the Mission 6: Mobile Command Center was the biggest construction project that our Lego tester had ever undertaken. In about eight hours he completed the assembly, took it for a test drive, and secured Dr. Inferno in the high-tech jail cell. Like with all Lego sets, the instructions include here provide colorful step-by-step images that make it easy for any diligent builder to create the detailed Command Center and it's accessory vehicles. Although, when our Command Center was finished, we did discover that one sticker was missing.

This set gets great fun-factor ratings, due in large part to the opening doors that hide all the spy technology, and the fact that this mobile base is on wheels and can go anywhere. Our tester also appreciated the way most of the smaller vehicles fit neatly inside the Command Center's compartments, the super-cool mission brief projector, and the moving crane. The detailed mini figures and the missiles hidden in the grill of the truck got the thumbs up, too. Overall, we found only one minor design flaw. When the Command Center is assembled and is pulled around by the truck cab, some of the hinges that hold the compartment doors in place come apart easily, causing play to pause while they are reattached.

Whether your child uses the Command Center by itself or as part of an existing Lego collection, it's sure to inspire hours of fun. We also appreciate the way that Lego systems never limit imaginative play. All the cool hardware that makes up the Mobile Command Center can be used to build any structure or vehicle your child can dream up. And time has shown that building projects are a great way to inspire cooperative play between friends and siblings, too.

What's in the Box
1,154 Lego pieces and four instruction booklets.

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding LEGO set !! Great design and tons of fun., October 31, 2008

This review is from: LEGO Agents Mobile Command Center (Toy)

I have been a LEGO fan all my life. I am in my 30's and I remember owning just one LEGO set (221 pieces which I used to count before and after building). It was an old Castle set with 4 figures and a siege tower. It was my favorite toy. So to buy a set with so many figures and pieces for my son was very exciting for me after all these years.

My son is 4 years old and he loves playing with his LEGOs (Duplo). We build everything together and playing this with him sure beats playing any video game or anything else.

This set is particular is outstanding. There are just so many things that you can make in this set. We have not yet made the whole truck as we make one small thing everyday. With over 1000 pieces, it can take a while to put together (especially with an impatient 4 year old). He is very happy with just the small cars and planes that we have put together so far. I look forward to putting the truck together and make it all come together. The figures are so cool as are the small gadgets that we get with the set like the laptop, projector, little guns, tools, flippers etc..

My wife who usually does not play with boy toys joined us in building and was blown away by the detail of this set. She sits down everyday now and joins us after dinner to put something small together. No TV for us! Once we put this together, we are going to combine this with the DUPLO Thomas train track set and have tons of fun.

The price on Amazon is pretty cool ($20 cheaper than on the LEGO website). Great great deal and I would still pay the full price if it were not on sale. Great toy for anyone and everyone who appreciates good quality, design, detail and battery free toys.

5.0 out of 5 stars Really cool lego set, December 27, 2008

A Kid's Review

= Durability:4.0 out of 5 stars  = Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars  = Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: LEGO Agents Mobile Command Center (Toy)

This review is from my 7 1/2 year old son:

I think it is really cool that this set comes with a whole bunch of little vehicles. I thought the little plane that launches from the agents truck was really cool and I really also liked the mechanical arm that lifts the truck and the little projector. The hidden hatch that stores the vehicles under the truck is really cool and it has a cool jail for the bad guys. This is a really awesome lego set, other people should get this set for their kids. There is one problem with the roof attaching, you should remove the track piece on the roof and it will work properly.

I'M SORTA SURPRISED BY THE POOR REVIEWS GIVEN BY SOME OF THE OTHER PURCHASERS. MY HUSBAND BUILT THIS FOR OUR SON WHO IS JUST 3.5 YEARS OLD, AND EVEN AS A PRESCHOOLER HE'S ABLE TO PLAY WITH IT EVERY SINGLE DAY SINCE CHRISTMAS. YES, IT'S NOT AS DURABLE AS SOME OTHER TOYS (LIKE MAYBE FROM FISHER PRICE OR LITTLE TIKES)... BUT, IT LEGOS! IT'S MADE OUT OF A BAJILLION TINY PIECES. I JUST EXPECTED THAT WE'D BE RE-BUILDING AND RE-DESIGNING IT AS WE WENT ALONG. AND, IT TEACHES OUR SON NOT TO GET FRUSTRATED OVER SUCH THING. IF SOMETHING COMES UNDONE... WE GO WITH THE FLOW AND FIX IT, OR COME UP WITH OUR OWN NEW AND IMPROVED DESING. THAT'S THE BEAUTY~!

AND THE NUMEROUS FEATURES; COOL FUNCTIONING PROJECTION SCREEN, STORAGE COMPARTMENT FOR NUMEROUS SMALLER VEHICLES, ESCAPE JAIL, COMPUTER SCREENS IN THE COCKPIT... ALL VERY AMAZING AND WELL-DESIGNED. THERE IS SO MUCH FOR THE IMAGINATION TO DO HERE... MY SON IS ALWAYS COMING UP WITH NEW ADVENTURES FOR THE AGENTS!
