6585
Hang-Glider

Awesome minifig!

Posted by R.R in Netherlands on 03 November 2009

I ordered this set a few days ago together with Deep Sea Treasure Hunter, Crystal Hawk (for the astronaut and pieces) and Passage of Jun-Chi (I will review those sets later). The box is very small, but it has some nice pictures from ideas, a boat and a ultralight plane.

The minifigure has a cool green helmet with a black visor. He has a smiley face with blue sunglasses. His torso is double printed, with the Extreme Team logo and some pockets on the front, and another Extreme Team logo on the back.


The hang-glider is very simply constructed, but it looks very realistic. It consists of just 14 pieces. The wings are pretty big. It has a little propeller for some propulsion, and two sticks for stabilisation. The minifigure can hold on to the yellow cable (which is a very rare piece) but it can be hard to snap his hands on it. It looks very cool on a shelf and it has a high 'swooshability'.


This set is very nicely made for just 14 pieces. I can recommend you to get it if you like collecting minifigures (like me) or if you just want something cool to look at on a shelf.

Thank you for reading my review.

Flying High

Posted by Blade in Australia on 04 September 2007

Emptied the box today so I got about 100 models laying on my lounge room floor. So now I just got to match the missing pieces to the models, finish and review them.

This particular model is a simple one. The hand glider is of good size, two large wings or 125mm in wingspan. Has a neat little fan at the back to keep him airborne and two rods for aerodynamics. The handle bar is made from flexi-hose so it shapes to the mini-figs grip very well.

The mini-fig itself is dressed in green and black which looks very nice and has the blue sports sunglasses face. Also has the x-trem logo on the front and back of his jacket.

Overall this model is quite aesthetically pleasing and deserves a 5/10. Looks good on display or fits in well with any town or the Res-q or X-trem series.
