My ten year old received this for Christmas and really likes it. Was surprised the propellers tilted easily and like they should, since normally things don't work like they should. It's Lego, if you have kids who like Lego, they will like it!

4.0 out of 5 stars A very cool lego set June 16, 2010

A Kid's Review

Durability: 5.0 out of 5 stars    Educational: 2.0 out of 5 stars    Fun: 4.0 out of 5 stars   

This was my first Atlantis lego set I got and I REALLY love it.It is very strong and it only comes apart when the shark warrior is really trying hard to rip it apart.The new Atlantis mini figures are cool looking. It has cool features like the engines that flip around to reveal a torpedo launcher and a Atlantis key gripping arm.The only problem with this set is that the included shark man is no match for the sub. I would recommend that you get a set like the deep sea striker to go along with this set.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the coolest moving-part lego sets we've built. January 20, 2011

Originally, I wasn't that into the Atlantis theme, but this vehicle is really pretty cool. What makes it unique is that the turbines can actually reverse by moving a slide forward/backward. They lock into place in each position, so it plays well and isn't flimsy. To boot, all of this is done with ordinary style parts and minimal specialty pieces. It's really quite amazing.

When you flip the engines, it reveals a missile launcher and claw which can be used for your imaginary missions.

The diver and shark-guy minifigures are unique and fun for kids to play with. Since you're getting both a "good guy" and a "bad guy" in one set, this makes it a great selection for someone's first (or only) Atlantis set.
