The parallels (again, as with the first series) are amusing as hell. Come to
think of it, some underground-type stuff would be cool to see in Adventurers.
Saw the boxes today at TRU (most of the entire series). Very nice looking
mostly-green motif. Like the sets in the first series, these use graphics all
the way around the box-- i.e., no solid colors on the side panels. Very sharp.
The sets are definitely short on native minifigs... too bad.
This was in the SF Bay area. Boat/idol set was $50, didn't price the others.
The large temple comes in a very thick box-- due to the baseplate, I guess.
Also: the English name of each set appears on the *front* panel (at upper
right). Three more languages appear on the top. (I haven't really try to
identify the new one.)
The Police boat was there as well, but I didn't see any other 99 stuff.
Go get 'em!
