   The altar/shrine is a very basic construction of maybe 25-30 pieces that features a standing staff. A small rod fitted behind the center of the staff can be ‘flicked’ to knock the staff out of place (ooh, I hope I can contain my excitement!).

LEGO’s “playability” in this feature fell pretty flat. When I tried to flick the staff over, the axle just lamely pushed it to the side without it being dislodged. I didn’t really mind though, as I wanted that forked staff to go with the serpent scepter that came with the Series #2 MF Pharaoh.

   The back of the box shows that the staff is one of a series of objects to be collected. Other objects found in the other sets include items such as scarab shield, headdress, gem and scimitar.

Actually, that’s an ancient Egyptian khopesh.

   This set came in at around $10.00 which is pretty reasonable (figuring the current minifig value at around $3.00 plus a motorcycle) and will make for a must-have purchase when they get discounted.

Absolutely! It’s a great selection of parts for the price.

I rather like the minifig primarily because he's perfect for use as the standard slob who does nothing but sits around the house watching TV & sipping beer :) (13 years ago, 18-Dec-10, to lugnet.reviews, lugnet.adventurers, FTX)

Mick's been sent on a quick bike run recon mission to verify the location of a dig site for the Umptom-Esh staff. Sure it was just a reason for the professor's pretty boy assistant to get Mick out of the way while the egghead sap tries some more (...) (13 years ago, 16-Dec-10, to lugnet.reviews, FTX)
