Ugh, just... ugh

This set is OK. The diver and Key make it worth getting, but the crab is a bit silly looking. The claws are really quite stupid and I don't think we need another set with STICKERS.

Pros.
- Cheap
- Diver minifig
- Treasure key

Cons.
- Stickers
- A silly, silly crab

Great Black Crab w/ Killer Spikes

Posted by thebrickshow in United States on 03 February 2010

I love most of the Atlantis themed sets and this set is just one more reason why. I bought it for $9.99 and you get alot for that price. The diver mini figure comes with alot of nice gear. The harpoon gun is one of the longer guns i've seen. An his fins are a nice touch.

The crab is just pure killer cool. Fangs, claws, spikes...he has it all. The diver is definitely outmatched on this one. His 6 legs are even a little flexible giving it a nice bounce. And the mouth move both up and down and side-to-side.

PROS
* Price Point is Great
* Black Crab's Killer Fangs and Claws
* Orange Spikes On Crab
* Orange Treasure Key

CONS
* Minifig fins fall off easy.

The crab guardian protects his key!

Posted by LEGOwikiguy in United States on 16 January 2010

I must admit, this is a cool set. Though small, the price is great! Not much to say about this, the diver is normal (I don't really remember his profile name, though there is an article on brickipedia on him. He's known to be fearless).

I say that this set gets a 4/5. Fun, good with other sets, and like I said, PRICE ROCKS! Plus the set came out early for me, and I was VERY excited. I recommend this to any Atlantis LEGO fan.

Crab Guardian, and who the heck is that?

Posted by legoguy2805 in United Kingdom on 13 January 2010

I got this set a few weeks ago from Argos, and I am very impressed. The new diver's suits are very detailed, and are much advanced from Aqua Raiders. The crab is also very posable, and features the new claw/tooth pieces on the feet.

Pros:
Diver (The names are all mixed up, so it's almost impossible to tell who he is)
ORANGE TREASURE KEY
Snapping claws
Looks good

Cons:
The return of STICKERS (Crab eyes, and back patterns)

Overall, I'm used to stickers anyway, so 5/5.

A good set

Posted by gabriel123 in United Kingdom on 30 December 2009

This set is quite good it has some usefull parts and some new to me, the parts which are new to me are the spikes at the ends of the legs, the 'key' and the parts in the middle of the legs (not the spikes) as the have a hole in the middle. The diver minifig is very well detailed and has a new helmet and visor.
The 'key' is quite intresing the one in this set is orange and a a crab like symbol on it. The crab is quite cool I quite like the stickers on it and the legs keep it up well although the claws seem a bit oversized. Overall I would recommend this set, especially for MOCists.
