You're probably not going to buy this for the speeder, though: the minifigures, I suspect, will be of the most interest to AFOLs. There are some nice SNOT connections and an interesting use of a flag piece, but nothing really stunning. Of course, that's to be expected- it is an impulse set, after all.

The build of the speeder is quite quick- it almost takes more time to build the minifigures. Interesting are Squidman's cape (in a new, flatter type of cape-box), the 100-bill, and some of the big slope parts. The Parts and Build, And Extra Pieces TooĪ nice variety of parts is present, some large, some small. Nothing so difficult as the Thunder Driller, though. Not very many parts, but 33 of 42 are unique, so that's pretty good.Ī relatively small DSS, but some of these are kind of tricky to put on- namely the long ones with the flame-like things on them. In the back of the instructions, we have a line-up of all of the criminals and the various SPIII sets. No piece call-outs, but the print is quite clear and easy-to-read. Pretty standard instructions, with the same image as the front of the box on them.

So you dump out the box and get two polybags, a small dreadful sticker sheet, an instruction booklet, and a free LEGO club membership. Overall, the box stands out enough to be noticed- especially the gleeful Squidman. Also there is the punch-flap, which I never actually use, in favor of a knife. The two minifigures are once again placed prominently, and it makes it pretty obvious that you're getting a 100-bill, too. Once again, a pretty typical impulse box. Essentially a typical impulse box, but you're not buying for the box, are you? We have the typical dome-thing in the background, some nice shiny effects on the speeder's lights, and a prominent display of Squidman. Or else.Ī fairly small box, but it is the third-smallest set in the Space Police line, after all. If you don't have him, go get at least two. Price: USD 5.99, GBP 4.89, EUR set, for an impulse, has one major BUY ME! factor: Squidman.

#Squidman lego series#
His bio states that he is the only known member of his species, though the Space Alien from Minifigures Series 3 is very similar to him, as it has the same head sculpt, just with different colours and markings.It should be noted that Squidman is the only story-wise known member of his species, as stated by his bio. He currently uses Squidtron as an alibi to commit crimes (or he is used instead), as seen in the police logs. He hasn't been reported to be caught for it.

He has been spotted to actually work out there and that he pimped up some of the vehicles of the Black Hole Gang's fleet. Squidman runs a pitstop, at which he often hides weapons and illegal stuff like gold and chemical vats. Squidman has made Squidtron to boss around, but the latter ran off and decided to be an even better criminal. Squidman (aka, P Squiddy, The Mollusc Menace) is an alien criminal from the 2009 Space Police III line Good thing his crooked schemes usually backfire right in his face! Background

Squidman is all about Get-Rich-Quick schemes and making a fast space buck, no matter what he has to steal or who he has to cheat to do it. This gold crazy mollusk menace calls himself the King of the Squidmen, even though no one else in the galaxy has ever seen another alien like him.
