Review - Agents 8635 Mobile Command Center
Marko replied to Svelte's topic in LEGO Action and Adventure Themes
There is Agents card where you can stick the star and number is actually "6" -
Nice to see your snow MOC. They are skating on hard snow? Lovely story

UPDATE December 2009 I thought that I will give an update about my town. Town had to move to another room (as my son was growing and needed all of his own room to him) and was a bit downsized Now still most of the buildings are not finished properly but the population is growing and growing. Some of the mini figures even moved out to nearby islands. Nazi Army protections services were replaced by Agents Mobile Command Truck and some of the Star Wars fleet. Otherwise it has been a year of the sports - NBA Challenge, Football Championship Challenge II, NHL Street Hockey, Gravity Games Skateboard Vert Park Challenge were added to the town and nearby winter resort got Gravity Games Snowboard Boarder Cross Race. Birdsview Couple of more pictures in original post.

Very nice. Does it fire flick missiles? Could be a nice playability addition. I respect your color choice. Old dark grey looks very military on your pictures. HMV-s are also good not too fancy. In overall I like these very much.

Review - Agents 8635 Mobile Command Center

Though it is "old" set I needed to give my feedback as my son got it couple of days for his 4th birthday and today it is fourth day that he is playing with it. He has many many sets and a full room built up as LEGO town but this Agents set has beat them all. He got for the same birthday a bit earlier also SW Attack Shuttle but this now sits in the shelf and gets no attention at all It took me almost 4 hours to assemble it. There are so many nice play features (gadgets and weapons) there that hardly any set can beat it in action playability. I highly recommend this set for boys! -
I like churches, even tried to take photo of all of them in my travel destinations, now I just buy the book. I like to see when somebody does a church here. Your windows and floor are specially good art of LEGO craftsmanship Good colors. Thanks!

Lovely small installation

You forgot the Dacta 9364 It is a decent size that probably only capital cities had
-
Nice mother ship. I always love when somebody does a boat here. I am also planning to do one day a decent mother ship for my wealthy/rebellious minifigures. My only issue is that you have the RIBs so low in a place where I would imagine water to be.

Nice, I like the curves and of course the crate in the trunk.

I started my town with Church on set 302 plates roads going around it, next was Hotel opposite the Church on 300 set plates. On the other side of the church on the beach it got Soldiers Fort from set 6242 to operate as police station. Then center got a bit further gas station modeled according to the 377 next to Ferrari 248 F1 team 8144. To the other direction from the Church there is a small hill with pine trees that occasionally get cut down by drunk Fire Fighters who live on other side of the hill in residential area with block of sets 1484 and 6372 copies Town Houses. My center is still missing Town Hall with shops next to the Hotel and there was planned as well Pink Department Store but this plan will probably be discarded until world stock markets gain 2007 level. What I did for starting the whole project was to buy all the road baseplates that I would need for my total project to visualize the area. Marko

Wow and I thought that I have big room for LEGO . First I planned to build a town in my jacuzzi room, but built it in my sons room. My wife made me move it out from there. So I gave up my office room to accommodate my town in a smaller scale as the room was smaller than my sons room. And moved my office to the room with one tiny window and ventilation noise. And you man get a whole hall for the LEGO ... Lucky you oh I forgot I like the way your mountain has built caves. Is it up somewhere for closer view as well?

Story, details, techniques - all combined make a great MOC. Plus you have added light to issues that people usually are too comfortable to deal with. Thanks for the MOC and reminder of all the misery that surrounds us and dwells in us.
-
You have well captured the atmosphere. I would have added more garbage and probably more run down buildings but anyway yours is very nice colorful change to MOCs. I said earlier that I had a plan to introduce brown minifigures to my town as well but still I have not done any BL purchases. Your MOC reminds me again that I should progress with my plan. Thank you for interesting neighborhood, very suitable for some arms dealing or other lucrative deals

Black car is almost like the Rolls-Royce my minifigures need.
-
Oh but I did use the large piece here
-
My town was initially planned to fourth floor in my house where we are supposed to have jacuzzi to be built around it with real water. Unfortunately I have not yet installed the jacuzzi, so I started building in my sons room. One day I will move my town to the jacuzzi room and have it with real water.

Thank you for the nice review. It is another one of the sets that comes form my childhood and one that I owned. This set has alternative design for helicopter that can transport passenger. I use this version of the set in my present town for VIP transport.

Nice , specially playing with different elevations - that is quite hard to do with LEGO. I loved your valuable wide green road plates. Only thing that kind of was out of place for me was that Green Grocer - otherwise it would have had compact nice rural feeling. Do you have custom boards made for your town? Overall I like your town a lot and would like it to develop more in rural direction as you have a good start with green baseplates and some sets. I stay following your progress.

Thank you for good review. I like your style that emphases on practical modifications to get most out of the set. Also it is always good to have here at Licensed forum Ferrari and other real life licenses covered. I planned to buy the old truck set but always lacked money on that particular set and finally discarded the idea. Now your review made me again think about getting the Ferrari truck to complement my Ferrari Garage with Räikkönen and Massa. Probably I would no go for the new version

I have Ferrari Garage fixing all the cars. Nazi planes from Indiana Jones are protecting the town from Pirates gone modern by hijacking the large Police boat. Soldiers Fort from Pirates is used as Police station and Fish market where Brickbeard works. Ferrari team members participate in local soccer matches. Island Extreme Stunts Pepper Roni is having treiler truck service. Williams F1 racer has retirement home there. Classic Space minifigures are transported by small cargo ship as illegals. So I have mixed a lot and am waiting for Star Wars fire power to take over the nazis soon after the Christmas.

This is good. All their scenarios are nicely done. You see Vestas is one of the possible manufacturers for the wind parks that are in planning for the island from where my family is from. Until now I have been totally against the parks but step by step Vestas with its promotion is making me to do some concessions or maybe not ..

Me too, me too, likes your town a lot. Specially the way how you have included new stuff in your town to blend in with classic times. Story was great. What sets your town apart is of course proper park area that many people are many times missing in their otherwise nice towns. Thank you.

I love it - specially the color as not too often are used nice colors. Your lorry has nice details. 1930-s s a good time to set something up.
