Scorpion Orb Launcher Reviews
Is this LEGO set a good investment?
“Over that last few years Scorpion Orb Launcher has been a particularly good investment for Alpha Team collectors with an annualized growth of upwards of 14.6% per year. However, there is market indication that the set will experience a slight annual growth decrease in the coming years, but this should be only by a few percentage points at most. When compared to the vast majority of set in the Alpha Team theme, this set is still an excellent investment for collectors.”

“This is one of the two last Alpha Team sets released. The Scorpion Orb Launcher is designed to look and act like a scorpion. It can have its stinger loaded with an Ice Orb to launch and is piloted by a Super Ice Drone. The set also includes a hang glider with Flex with... More skis.”

“The minifigs included are top notch. One black skeleton head attached to a half Dark Red, half black torso and legs (similar to Batman's enemy Two-Face, switch the head with a Two-Face head and you can have a new outfit for Two-Face). The Alpha Team agent looks great too as... More he has accessories painted onto his torso and zippers on his pants. His face has a beard and he has a knit cap to keep his head warm.”

About Alpha Team Mission Deep Freeze
Mission Deep Freeze is an Alpha Team subtheme, that ran from 2004-2005. The theme centers around a team of secret agents known as the Alpha Team, and their efforts to stop the nefarious villain Ogel from taking over the world. In 2004 LEGO completely revised Alpha Team. The theme's logo was changed, many of the characters had different appearances than in previous years and some characetrs such as Cam and Crunch were removed and replaced with Agents Arrow and Diamond Tooth. Alpha Team vehicles were given a new feature, known as Alpha Mode, which allowed them to be transformed into another vehicle without disassembling them. In addition, The Alpha Team vehicles' color scheme were completley changed, featuring black, grays, white, and sand blue, as well as various transparent colors for smaller details.
