One of the most interesting new themes that came out this year is LEGO Ultra Agents. It somewhat resemble the original LEGO Agents sets from 2008-2009, but with even more high-tech gear and equipment both for the good guys and the baddies. The first wave of the sets was obviously successful enough that LEGO is planning to continue the theme in 2015. So let’s take a look at what’s coming! 🙂
➡ #70166 LEGO Ultra Agents Spyclops Infiltration: This is the smallest of the 2015 LEGO Ultra Agents sets, with two minifigures and a walking/shooting personal fighter for the badguy. 109 Pieces. Price: $11.99
➡ #70167 LEGO Ultra Agents Invizable Gold Gateway: This set looks quite similar to the currently available #70162 LEGO Ultra Agents Infearno Interception. In that set we got a black vehicle with trans-blue highlights, and here we get a similar design but as a two-wheeled bike with transforming capabilities to some kind of a hover-flyer. We also get two minifigs here. 237 pieces. Price: $19.99
➡ #70168 LEGO Ultra Agents Drillex Diamond Job: This is one of the larger sets in the 2015 LEGO Ultra Agents line-up. We get two minifigs as usual, but the real attraction is that drill-tank. I’m pretty sure that those drills will rotate both individually and even together as an assembly as the tank moves forward – or something like that. 312 pieces. Price: $29.99
➡ #70169 LEGO Ultra Agents 4×4 Agent Patrol: I don’t have a picture of this set that I can share with you, so I will just try to describe it. The 4×4 vehicle has the same black/trans-blue color-scheme and similar look as the bike mentioned above. It also equipped with lots of blasters. There are four minifigs in the set, two agents, an unknown guy in a space-suit (probably a scientist) and Toxikita (who is the girl with the green hair you may remember from the first wave of LEGO Ultra Agents sets). She wears an orange heavy armor piece, (same as Infearno’s red armor) and rides a small lime-green mech. One arm of the mech is a blaster, while the other one is a claw that Toxikita is using to grab her prey. There is also a robo-police dog named P.U.P. to help the agents. 475 Pieces. Price: $49.99
➡ #70170 LEGO Ultra Agents UltraCopter vs. AntiMatter: Here we got one big helicopter for the agents, also equipped with lots of blasters. There are four minifigs in the set; 3 agents (including Solomon Blaze and Caila Phoenix), and a badguy named AntiMatter. Note that really cool new helmet on one of the agents. 614 pieces. Price: $69.99
LEGO Ultra Agents has been a refreshing and unique theme, and it is a great alternative to the more expensive licensed sets with interesting vehicles, excellent minifigs and a great storyline. Speaking of the story, LEGO Ultra Agents also has a lot happening online. There are games, an app you can download, and more. You can find them all the official LEGO Ultra Agents website. And if you would like to check out the currently available LEGO Ultra Agents sets, you can find them at the Online LEGO Shop.
So what do you think? How do you like LEGO Ultra Agents? Do you own any of the current sets? Are you excited that the theme is continuing next year? And are you planning to get any of the new sets? And how do you like the app and the online games? Feel free to share your thoughts and discuss in the comment section below! 😉

First Comment! I like the App bricks, and want Drillex’s gloves. Also, AntiMatter is AWESOME 😀
These sets are really cool, possibly my favorite theme of 2015. Nah, that goes to Star Wars and Pirates. Nonetheless, I still really want the Spyclops Infiltration and Drillex Diamond Job.
These sets are cooler than this year’s sets, especially with the inclusion of “App Bricks.” I think that the app bricks will work with the Ultra Agents app, in a fashion similar to Fusion’s: You scan the object the app bricks are on in the set, and the app will see the set you have, and give you special access to something or other in the game. That’s my take on them. 😉
For Drillax’ Diamond Job, the front works like this: when you move the tank, the front gears in the tread turn a network of gears that ends up in the front, turning the gears to the side around the central gear, and at the same time rotating the drill pieces, which rotate in the same direction. OK, hope you understood that. 😕 🙂
I myself would like to get the UltraCopter, as a replacement for the T-1 Typhoon I never will get, but then it’s a toss-up b/w that and Hurricane Heist. I’m not sure which I like more. 😕
I was wondering about how those app bricks would work, but what you say does make sense. I guess LEGO is going to force me to buy a smartphone with all this coolness to come out. 🙄
When you said “… as an assembly as the tan moves forward…” did you mean “…as an assembly as the TANK moves forward..” just being helpful.
Yeah, LOL! Silly spell-checker! Thanks for catching that! 🙂
I think the main badguy is Antimatter.
Yes, I think so too.
They should definitely stick the Ultra Agents sets in the second LEGO Movie. I always like it when they continue LEGO themes.
Btw, the Avengers Age of Ultron trailer is now released. Check it out! It looks amazing.
And a new Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies poster is out!
Yeah, saw the trailer earlier today. And also saw the poster on LEGO’s Facebook page! 😛
I think that the trailer tells a lot about the movie (well, duh). I mean, I think that Marvel is really stretching the stories. After they combined all the heroes in the Avengers, very movie has had some ties to each other, and Stark and SHIELD are in almost everything. And this Avengers 2 is, again, Tony Stark’s fault. His father found the Teserak (or however its spelled) in the ice after Captain America, then Tony made all his suits, and helped techno-ize SHIELD, and now his technology is creating all these bad guys. Why can’t Stark just die, or just destroy his technology? 😕
sweet chopper! 😀 Is it just me or does some of the new agent minifigures in this theme look similar to the old agent theme minifigs?
I’m definitely going to get the ultra Chopper VS. the Antimatter!
One word comes to mind: Cyberpunk!
Yes, exactly! 😀
Did anyone else see the new agent helmet in 70170 and immediately think of LEGO Universes’s Doctor Overbuild?
Yes, looks similar! Good notice! 😛
The Drillex mini figure looks a lot like tremor from the Tremor Track Infiltration set, also i like the LEGO group puts lots of cool accessories and armor on there ultra agent mini figures.
By any chance does anyone have the release date for these? I’m hoping to get my hands on that Antimatter!
Quirkro, the release time is mentioned in the article. They are going to be available in February. 🙂
Ah, I must have missed that. Thanks a bunch, really looking forward to this awesome lineup!
Yeah, me too! 😛
