I meant Ultra Agents because I was confused as to how BrickShow and JangBricks have gotten these sets. Hmm maybe Target or Ebay?

Not Target, but Europe has had them since January 1... so Bricklink or eBay is plausible.

Jangbricks and BrickShow waste their money to import from Europe. They are impatient and are releasing footage of product that matters little to their target audience. At least until March that is.

It's a tactic used so that they can be "the first" to review the set. Since when was being a YouTube user a competition?

Anyway, the little glimpse of the Anti-Matter hideout looks fantastic so far, really just because of the Minifigs. Can't wait to see more over the next couple of days.

It's because they earn money from the advertisements. That's why they "waste" money on it. The net profits are greater than the expenses.

Just a quick question: I am thinking of picking up the Ultra Copter, particularly for the armoured Agent and AntiMatter, but the price tag is making me hesitate, as is the fact I also want to get the Robo Shark from the summer sets. Should I go for the Ultra Copter and perhaps BL the Robo Shark in the summer, or wait until the AntiMatter's portal hideout is released so I can get everything I want in one set (which could potentially be cheaper than the copter)? Am interested to hear thoughts especially from people who have the Ultra Copter.

I would suggest getting the Ultra Copter and ordering the shark, but not off of Bricklink, but from LEGO's Bricks and Pieces service. It's much cheaper and allows you to get other pieces you want (such as the Agent's armor and Antimatter). It's down at the moment though. The Ultra Copter is a much more substantial set, to the point where, compared to the Portal Hideout, it is disproportional to the price difference.

Okay, thanks for the thoughts. I do know about the Bricks and Pieces service too, but sometimes availability for pieces like the Robo Shark (potentially, since I won't know until June or whenever the summer wave comes out) is a bit hit and miss, and if pieces come in a separate bag in the set, it is likely to not be sold there.

I think I might wait until better pictures surface for the hideout before committing. It may be that I don't even buy either set and I get all the bits I want separately anyway.

Yeah, the boat is a little shorter than I expected (needs to be about a third longer, if you ask me), but it's still nice. Can't really make out much, so not much to discuss.

I'm pretty sure it's the Electric Guy. Look at the bottom you can see him on some sort of flying machine. Still want to know about the battery thing and some more features. Not the best preview at the sets but oh well!

At this part of the Video you can see 3 new Villains and Terabyte without a Helmet!

Also, Antimatters Hideout is in the background! :excited:

Oh!! I figured it out. I'm pretty sure the Brain Villain will come in the Ultra Sonic Showdown along with that Agent with the long orange hair we see in the back of the display.

The orange haired guy is actually Terabyte, he has the same torso with 'Bad to the Code' on the back. But I think your right about the brain villain, who also looks pretty creepy with the visible brain piece and a set of spider legs.

I've got to say, the Ocean HQ looks absolutely amazing! The brick built hull is really well done, and the set looks to be, once again, packed with features. :drool:

I'm unsubscribing from Attamai's channel,this guy didn't even bother to give us atleast a quick scoop from the remaining summer sets.Not to mention that he didn't bother to explore all the play features from the HQ set. And WHO the hell cares about those damn app bricks???

God Ultra Agents is such underrated theme,no one gives a damn about it.

Oh wow didn't notice that! Still hoping for some more pictures from Atamaii. Why does it seem like no one took any pictures at this toy fair?

No, although they do look similar from the back,

Max Burns has this piece: http://www.bricklink...tem.asp?P=87991

While Terabyte now has this one: http://www.bricklink...tem.asp?P=88283

I know right?, I really have no idea why almost half the video was focussed on the app bricks, they literally come in every UA winter set too!

And right now, we don't even have any pictures of the Ultrasonic Showdown set, and only a prelim of Antimatters hideout. :sad:
