Recommendation: no 3.67 / 5 from 6 reviews

As a fan of Aquaman Lego, highly anticipated this set as wanted the orm ocean master figure, He doesn't disappoint, nicely detailed torso plus cape and headgear, looks the part for taking on Aquaman. The Aquaman figure nicely detailed plus new colour palette for his beard and completely yellow long hair this time. Also included are tridents for both plus the water element pieces enabling both to stand as though lifted by water. The sub is easy to build and nice enough, has propellers you can move,as is the scuba diver batman, plus a shark. all in all a great set for the price.

Recommendation: meh 3.6 / 5 by Vaderfan2187

I think this set is alright. The Aquaman and Ocean Master figures are great to get but the Batman minifigure is kind of boring. The Batsub itself is also relatively unremarkable and playability could have been better – an Atlantean playset that let you swoosh around Aquaman and King Orm would have been so much more fun. The price is decent but not amazing, though admittedly there is a molded shark included.

Recommendation: yes by Dimitri

The inclusion of the two bases for Aqua Man and Ocean Master makes the characters really pop when on display, while the Batsub itself is simple but enjoyable to construct and looks great next to Batman's more well known modes of transport. At this price, two exclusive minifigures, a shark and a great vehicle offers excellent value for money.
