This is kinda dope. Not something I'd expect from Chima.
I always loved chima :3
the animal themed vehicles was a neat concept, granted some suffered from incomplete feel of early 2010s
but this one soo good, always disappointed I never got this it
The spook'ems were so underutilized in the Chima show. 6 episodes, that's it. Like, this thing actually looks really cool, but I genuinely don't even remember this thing showing up.

The whole second wave was way more forgettable than it deserved to be.
Chima taking their best shot at a Technic spider! It kinda worked, maybe?
Got this in a bulk haul. I would have loved to see kore animals explored in Chima…
Hey I've got this one!
Real QUICK LORE!!!
Someone dropped Chi underground!
It gave a bunch of spiders, scorpions, and bats sentience!
They tried to take over Chima!
QUICK LORE!!!!
Easily one of the best Chima sets by a country mile. This thing was dope.
I'm okey with the spiders but that minifig is creepy...
I'm getting some serious Superman Lives vibes here.
Spider Stalker, Spider Stalker
Goes wherever a spider can walk-a
Disappointingly there's no walking action feature. The front legs just raise and lower with a knob. The abdoman also hinges up to shoot missles.
Overall it looks quite cool but I personally find it lacking in articulation.
Cool spider, especially for Chima. The spider dudes were probably my favorite minifigs from that theme.

Well, that's disappointing. 8595 had a really fun "walking" mechanism, and it came out more than a decade before this.
Lol, can't remember why but I bought 4 of this back then.
Maybe because it was on clearance sale at $15 per set.
The spider people look creepily brilliant! I admired Chima Hugely but could neither pick a tribe nor afford to collect them at that time.
I thought the wolves (and lions) had the weaker and weird looking facial designs considering how good the wolf piece and werewolf MFs look.
62 sets released that year! Is that the most for a theme in one year? Can't be far off.

I bought three of 7111 for similar reasons.
I still have my build but made it more natural looking.
