Box
The box is very big but is a little thin, as a result, is very small for this bulky vehicle as it can't fit in. Is a nice box art at the front, while the top shows us the minifigs and the actual scale of Atlantis key. The back of the box shows us the carrier got, and also an assortment of Atlantis key.

Four pack of bricks were found inside the giant box and each of them have smaller pack/s of bricks inside them. Other than that, we got three loose bricks, a sticker sheet and two instruction book.

The bag sure is big, but the content is quite little so I divided into two picture to show the total content from the box.

To download the instruction please click Book1 and Book2. The instruction book itself doesn't teach you which hole to attach the scout mini-sub at the back and how to keep the seabed rover.

Accessories
Three pairs of flipper, a trident and a Atlantis key with stingray print were given in this set. Atlantis key was packed separately.

Scout Mini-Sub
The scout mini-sub is really mini and I do hate to see the technic pin stuck out in front. Anyway, here's a little spec: armed with two harpoon at the front, and two working propeller. Below are the pictures from different angle:

Seabed Rover
The seabed rover do reassemble some insect, but I can't think of one right now =P. The claw in front of course is movable and is up to you whether to adjust it high on top or lowered it.

Stingray
The stingray here looks not bad, it do reassemble the look of stringray. It have moving flap and glow in dark pieces. Looks pretty nice.

I use LEGO light keychain to make the glow more powerful before snap picture of it.

All of the above here are from pack number one. It sure includes a lot of things inside this bad and as for the extra pieces I will take them at one shot during the last of the review. Review of Neptune Carrier will be available in next post. ^^
