“The tomb has two 2x6x1/3 black baseplates at the bottom, with two 1x6x1/3 ones connected on at a right angler, joining them together. Above this are some other bricks of various colours. The two front bricks of these are light stone grey, and have two holes in each of them.... More A 2x4x1/3 brown base with a 'peg' hole at each end is connected into the light stone grey pieces with the holes in them, on which a skeleton is placed.”

“I like this set, it's small with some nice parts and especially really usefull figures. The gems are also welcomed. The pop-up system doesn't work so good, but it's okay I guess. Maybe they should have add an animal, like a trans blue spider. But it's a nice set, especially... More for the Adventurers fans like me!”

About Adventurers Orient Expedition

The Orient Expedition subtheme of The Adventurers theme was released in 2003 and discontinued in 2005. The theme was about Johnny Thunder, Dr. Kilroy, Pippin Reed, and their new Asian friends going through Asia to find the Golden Dragon of Marco Polo and his three other treasures before the sneaky Lord Sam Sinister and his partners-in-crime did. This is was the last subtheme of Adventurers. Each set with more than 100 pieces came with stat cards and a piece of a game board that could be added to the Orient Expedition Board Game.

Orient Expedition was introduced in 2003 and currently consists of 20 sets. As of today, 7419 Dragon Fortress is the most valuable Orient Expedition set with an estimated new/factory sealed value of $1,145.
