Lego 30091: Pharaoh Quest - Desert Rover



You know everything is going well when..


My latest craziness acquisitions include this (Pharaoh Quest) Desert Rover and (Pirates of the Caribbean) Jack Sparrow' Boat impulse sets. From UK of course!

Thoughts: I like Pharaoh Quest Lego sets mainly because of the vehicles, and this impulse set is no exception. The front detail of the rover reminds me of the firetruck in Lego 10197 Fire Brigade, and the back wheel cover is a nice piece. I like the Gunslinger's sideburns and raised eyebrows. Though I must say there's nothing special on this set, after all it's just a promotional thing.

Lego Star Wars 30005 - Imperial Speeder Bike

I got this set mainly because of the Storm Trooper. The Speeder Bike has a lot of useful pieces.

Let's take a look!

From the pieces above, we could see pairs of hatchets, guns, and telescopes. And yes, the head of the Storm Tropper is just plain black, what a bummer.

Conclusion: Very nice set if you like to get the Storm Trooper minifigure, and spare parts from the Speeder Bike. The bike has some very useful pieces.

Lego 7567 Traveler

Price: $3.49

Let's start the show!

It's in fact 22 pieces, with an extra 1x1 black circle.

A seen at the airport. Our traveler is excited, and ready to document his adventures using his camera.


Some Building Details

Here I used the extra piece at the very top of the pole.


The Traveler and His Accessories

Lego 7567 Traveler - Accessories include 2 Suitcases, a Camera, and a Sling Bag

Conclusion: The thing that convinced me to get this set is the camera. I think this set is more on the minifigure's accessories; camera and sling bag. Its price is comparable with that of collectible minifigures. I wish the minifgure is a free spirit female ready to conquer the world. That would have been interesting, and for a change too.
