Agents is a theme introduced in the summer of 2008 and continued into 2009 as Agents 2.0. It involved an elite team of secret agents using high-powered technology to thwart the plans of an international crime syndicate.

Details

Sets in the line typically contained elements from both factions in action against each other - members of the Agents, a top secret commando team tasked with investigating and preventing international crime; and the evil Dr. Inferno and his ranks of equally-maniacal associates. Each side had access to top-of-the-line technology, ranging from the minijets and mobile command units of the Agents to the ingenious weapons of destruction and mayhem devised by Dr. Inferno.

The Agents line is heavily inspired by the movies of James Bond and is an over-the-top parody of action-packed spy thrillers in general.

Notes

  • Each set featured a short comic strip on the box showing the background to that set's action.
  • 8635 Mission 6: Mobile Command Center included a credit card-sized "identity card." Other numbered sets in the line included a star on their sticker sheets that could be applied to spaces on the card, to show missions "completed."
  • In the first Shop@Home catalogue featuring Agents, Agent Fuse and Agent Charge are erroneously shown with Trace's torso, apparently giving them female features.
