Adventurers / Egypt

Egypt was an Adventurers subtheme released in 1998. The Egypt sets were centered around Egyptian and various North African archaeology and culture. All the Adventurers have names related to weather such as Johnny Thunder, Dr. Charles Lightning, Gail Storm and many others.

The Egypt subtheme story line is based on the adventurers having traveled to Egypt to find the legendary Re-Gou Ruby, which is said to have magical power and is under the protection by the undead Pharaoh Hotep.

The Adventurers theme is based on an early 20th century exploration where the characters explore new areas, and go on adventures. All of the Adventurers sets, except for the Dino Island subtheme, take place in real-world locations, such as Egypt, the Himalayas, India, the Amazon rainforest, and China.
