This is a promotional set that was free with $50/£25 purchase at LEGO Shop and LEGO Brand Stores during the month of February.

The pieces along with instructions.
Image

Very simple instructions.

Complete model.

This is the only Movie polybag set that has a function. The other 2 sets (Micro Manager Battle and Super Secret Police Enforcer) don't really have any functions. In this set, you move that little red piece and out comes the rocks/pieces.

Comparison

Instructions and pieces. Super Secret Police Enforcer is definitely the biggest set out of the 3 polybags.
Image

Complete models for the three sets.

There's really not too much to say about these small sets, but they are great complements to the bigger LEGO Movie sets. They also not a bad way to get some of the LEGO Movie characters.

I'm not expecting the Piece of Resistance to be available elsewhere since it seemed like a s@h promo but I would really like to find the Micro Manager Battle one somewhere other than Meijer, which is not in my part of the country. I see the Police Enforcer one is available on TRU.com

Piece of Resistance is available now from Funny Business/Brick University in Nyack, NY ( http://funnybiz.co/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; https://www.facebook.com/FunnyBusinessOnline" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; ) which is a comic & toy shop that also has a Lego studio where they do classes and birthday parties. The owners are fellow members of I LUG NY and great guys. They also have 30271 the TMNT Mikey's Mini-Shellraiser & some other polys.

If only there were a Meijer in this part of the world, i need about 19 of that micro manager poly (ok i need about 3, I can make dozens of those from parts on hand, but I wouldn't mind having more wyldstyle hoods)

Can I make one constructive criticism-suggestion for these reviews, with the intent of improving the photos' quality?

I checked my local Meijer's store today for the Micro Manager Battle 30281. I didn't see it yet. Checked the easter section, near the checkouts and the LEGO aisle. I would like to find a couple. My local Meijer's is a bit smaller than the one in the next town. I'm hoping that they get them.

Morgan19... Thank you! I usually wait for naturally lighting and shoot near a window with large sheets on white paper underneath builds, behind and to one side (to reflect the light). I've always meant to build a light box and never taken the time to build one. Can't wait to try it.

I saw them at the check out for my meijer. I passed as it is mainly just another Wildstyle and we have her from the Cuckoo Cloud set and the western one from the collectable line. The easter section at mine had a imperial shuttle polybag and a city polybag.

Thanks Morgan19. I don't have an actual camera, but I'll try that. (:

^ Definitely check out the page; it's not actually about the camera, but rather the overall setup (lightbox) and lighting to help boost whatever your equipment is. :up:
