That last image of the pyramid set better be preliminary. You don't even have to look to closely to see the sticker peeling off the baseplate on the front. This one looks great for accumulating parts though.

I just commented on your photostream, but have to reiterate - the fact that the Sphinx comes alive as a playable item is fantastic - it's a building AND a creature!

I wouldn't call that a sphinx, it looks more like a jackal. Makes sense if the mummies are evil though.

The Duel in the Air set looks very cool, plus the flying falcon warriors look very cool and menacing. Not to mention that the torso's look very much like the CMFs3 mummy torso's.

Looking forward to the Rise of the Sphinx as well. I am left amazed at even thinking that this is both a building and a moving Sphinx. WOW!

Does the girl who held the red dynamite from set "Cursed Cobra Statue" look like Lora Croft at Tomb Raider? :lol: It may be fun to put a better torso(in tight t-shirt) and legs(in short pant) for her and come up with a tomb raider MOC

Ooooo, maybe not such a bad idea. That would be something for LEGO to consider, seeing as how there is a huge Lara Croft fan base. Don't know how many of these fans are AFOL's, it's a good idea, and there are hundreds of different scenarios that could be made for Lara Croft.

You are completely right. They look darn near close to each other. Good comparison. I love this line. Tan is such an amazing color to work with but it seems to only come in desert themes. There are other uses for tan darn it!

My favorites are the sets that have "moving" statues in them.

By the way, you guys are totally right about Lara Croft! It does really look like her. :D

I have to say, I'm not liking the Price per Piece for these sets.

7305 Attack of the Scarab ($4.99 USD / 44 pcs.) = $0.11 per piece.
7306 Golden Staff Guardians ($9.99 USD / 70 pcs.) = $0.14 per piece.
7307 Duel in the Air ($19.99 USD / 125 pcs.) = $0.16 per piece.
7325 Cursed Cobra Statue ($29.99 USD / 213 pcs.) = $0.14 per piece.
7327 Pyramid of the Pharaoh ($99.99 USD / 792 pcs.)$0.13 per piece.

I think that this might not be the best line to judge on PPP. There seem to be a ton of printed tiles, as well as quite a few large pieces in each set. The larger the piece the more justified it might be to command a higher price.
