squidman85 Posted February 23, 2010 (edited) How many figures will be in the portal?6 or 7? It will be a great Atlantis set,if it have manta warrior and ship. Edited February 23, 2010 by MantaMan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Delta 38 Posted February 23, 2010 I'm pretty sure they're gills why do you think I called him that? Anyway the eyes used to look like the manta mans eyes on a green head so they do look different. Probably. Argh! My edit function is stuffy (I'm on an Ipod Touch sometimes) so I double-posted by accident. A while back, someone mentioned a portal key or something. Is that confirmed to exist? I'd like a new ring in a new colour, maybe purple? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lordofdragonss Posted February 23, 2010 Yes there is Yellow ring with portal pattern Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aanchir Posted February 23, 2010 Yes there is Yellow ring with portal pattern Well, technically, all the rings have that pattern-- most just have a sea creature image in front of it. I'd be really grateful if there were more than one "placeholder ring" of this sort in the set, so there's still an incentive to buy other sets. However, for all we know there might not be any of that sort in the final set, and this ring image could be preliminary. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrTools Posted February 24, 2010 Wow! Only about $3.50 each...that's like an impulse set! Free shipping too! But the question we're all dying to hear the answer to is: is the quality of the plastic normal or Chinese? They have print on the neck so i would say its a safe bet they are not Chinese Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

However, for all we know there might not be any of that sort in the final set, and this ring image could be preliminary. If you look at the prelim boxes from the Toy Fair, all five rings were shown without the creature on front. It is almost certainly a preliminary image.

Zarkan Posted March 14, 2010 (edited) Some new news about the future of Alantis: TLC's internal magazine "The Brick" revealed that the theme will be continuing with new sets and a new storyline in 2011, making it the first non-licensed theme to be confirmed for next year.

Ooh, great! Can't wait to see what's coming up. I'm guessing rings will be gone, possibly replaced with something else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lordofdragonss Posted March 15, 2010 If that means more water mutants- I am in! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Delta 38 Posted March 15, 2010 So, I wonder what the new storyline will be? I go with my old theory, that they'll try to discover the origin of the creatures. To be really honest, I'll only be interested in the new lineup if there are small sets or new creatures. I still haven't got a single set yet; I'm waiting for the portal set. If I miss out on the set, I'll be really disappointed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bfahome Posted March 15, 2010 My bet is that they go to the center of the earth and find lava mantas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted March 15, 2010 Atlantis 2011 eh ? How about the Atlantis crew sent in to recover a downed alien spacecraft off the sea bed and the aliens are still alive as they can breathe both in water and regular air ? ...........Just a thought ! I'm a conformist! ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sok117 Posted March 15, 2010 There probably just gonna switch from Divers submarines, to underwater mutant vehicles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YG-49 Posted March 16, 2010 Our good friend Bobby Buoy translates what the Atlantian writing on the giant Shark says in the new Club magazine: "A little rusty, but I'll give it a shot. "If... You... Can... Read... This..." (Shark breaks out from rock) ""YOU'RE LUNCH!"" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ProducePrincess Posted March 22, 2010 Have we seen this one yet? I found it in whungs brickshelf.I can't see a water mark so i guess it's ok to post. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Svelte Posted March 22, 2010 New to me! (Although we've seen the sea-dragon separately). Thanks for the pic! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZO6 Posted March 22, 2010 Thanks for the updated picture. I was wondering what ever happened to that set. The transforming function is definitely new to me. Old, but bigger picture of the alternate model + sea dragon. Thanks for the new pics Pig! You're on the frontpage. I'll deeplink the other pics here as well. Love that snake!

Svelte Posted March 22, 2010 It looks better as a mecha, I think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ProducePrincess Posted March 22, 2010 It looks better as a mecha, I think. Yeah the crawler mode is sorta ugly. These are a little bit similar to the last wave of alphateam sets that could transform between walker and crawler modes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dannylonglegs Posted March 22, 2010 Yeah the crawler mode is sorta ugly.These are a little bit similar to the last wave of alphateam sets that could transform between walker and crawler modes. stupid dead sheep shoes, don't reming me. Well, this is a surprising twist to what I thought was a mecha-less sci-fi theme. (S-P is sooo next!) I have to say, the mecha is definitely my favorite too. I wish we could see a bigger picture of that mecha! The sea dragon is still disappointing, as it is incredibly large headed. ~Insectoid Aristocrat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
time1513 Posted March 22, 2010 Have we seen this one yet? I found it in whungs brickshelf.I can't see a water mark so i guess it's ok to post. awesome.... i'm sorry but I'm still having a hard time swallowing this up.... is this for real? Atlantis Mecha Transforming LEGO!?!?! if this is REAL.... WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oky Posted March 22, 2010 Wow! That's awesome! I already liked the set as a vehicle, but this makes it a must-buy! It's probably gonna be expensive though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gunm Posted March 22, 2010 Wow, very cool! I don't remember seeing this set 8080 at the recent Toy Fairs, is this Europe only, or a store exclusive? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Batbrick Posted March 22, 2010 Thanks for the pic Black Rabbit, a very cool looking Atlantis set, espeically in mecha mode. And that sea monster is really neat too, I quite like the tail design. Shame about the inclusion of the technic shooter though, it seemed like TLC was fading away from using those. Still, rare is good, and the rest of the set is sweet, though I doubt I'll buy it this is a great exclusive. Batbrick Away! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
