Review : LEGO Juniors 10760 Underminer's Bank Heist

The and 10760 Underminer's Bank Heist (149 pieces - 32.99 €) is the second of three sets in the LEGO Juniors range based on the animated film The Incredibles 2. It will allow the youngest to reproduce a scene from the film and collectors to complete a part of the family Parr.

Here, it is the Demolisseur (Underminer) who gives a hard time to Robert "Bob" Parr and Hélène Parr alias Mr. and Mrs. Indestructible. There is plenty of fun with two vehicles, the tunnel boring machine and the Incredimobile, a safe to break through, banknotes and jewels to steal and a street corner that will complement the scene.

As usual in sets from the LEGO Juniors range, the two vehicles are assembled in a matter of minutes. Their chassis is a massive block on which are grafted some parts for a quick assembly and immediate playability.

Other than the blue lines and the red circle on the hood, the Incredimobile provided here has little to do with the vehicle seen in the animated film, LEGO could have made an effort to come up with a more faithful model.

Note that if the content of sets in the LEGO Juniors range is simplified to the extreme to allow the youngest to discover the LEGO universe System, the instructions are also much more detailed and didactic than those of the classic sets.

As usual, no stickers to stick in this box which allows you to obtain some pretty pad printed pieces including a wanted notice for Underminer, a safe door, a clock and three banknotes. It's always taken.

On the minifig side, this set allows you to get Underminer with his miner's helmet that made the heyday of the CITY range in 2012 and his oversized fists seen in many sets of Legends of Chima, Nexo Knights or Super Heroes.

Robert and Hélène Parr are entitled to two-color molded arms and legs, and Bob's minifig is different from the one seen in the Disney collectible minifig series (ref. Lego 71012). The orange belt is now pad printed directly on the torso instead of being placed on the hips.

The two facial expressions of Hélène Parr are here different from those of the minifigure of the set 10759 Elastigirl's Rooftop Pursuit.

We can discuss the choice of minifig format for Bob. The character might have deserved to be represented as a bigfig to keep the proportions seen on the screen: He is much taller than his wife and the minifigure does not really pay tribute to the man's muscles.

This set offers a lot of fun (a good chase, it's always fun ...) and the assembly phase is a little more consistent than for the set 10759 Elastigirl's Rooftop Pursuit. It is in my opinion the most fun of the three sets that are marketed. There is still € 32.90 for Mr and Mrs Parr, it's a bit expensive ...

Note: The set shown here, supplied by LEGO, is included in the game. To participate in the raffle, simply post a comment on this article before May 9 at 23:59 p.m.. You have every right to disagree with me, this is not eliminatory.
