Description

The villain's base in Ultra Agents

AntiMatter's Portal Hideout is the lair of one of LEGO® Ultra Agents' central villains, a character able to travel between dimensions according to the theme's storyline. Rather than an agent headquarters, this set represents the opposition's base, complete with hidden traps and an unconventional layout. At 474 pieces it's among the largest builds in the theme, giving enough scope for a multi-part scene rather than a single compact structure. That makes it one of the few sets in the range told deliberately from the opposition's side, rather than putting the agents themselves centre stage.

Building around a portal feature

The build centres on a portal feature, the device AntiMatter reportedly uses to travel between dimensions in the theme's fiction, and it stands apart visually from the vehicle-focused parts found in other Ultra Agents sets. That makes the set worth a look for builders after unusual shaped pieces for their own sci-fi or portal-style projects. The parts list on this page breaks down exactly which elements create the effect. Portals of this kind recur throughout the Ultra Agents storyline, tying the individual sets together narratively even though each one stands on its own as a build.

Four minifigures for a stand-off

Four minifigures come with the set, in keeping with other larger Ultra Agents builds, leaving room for both villain characters and their opponents. That means a confrontation scene can be staged straight out of the box, without needing a second set for the other side. Weapons, accessories and special pieces for the figures form part of the 167 unique elements counted here. Pairing it with one of the agent vehicles from the same range rounds out a full confrontation scene.

A dark palette and 167 unique elements

Black, dark bluish grey and light bluish grey dominate the colour scheme, with dark blue as a cool accent — a fitting palette for a villain's hideout rather than a cheerful playset. With 474 total pieces against 167 unique shapes, plenty of basic elements repeat, typical for a structure built from walls and trap mechanisms. The parts list lets you check which dark-toned pieces might suit other sci-fi or villain-themed builds. Owners of several Ultra Agents sets can compare parts lists across models to see where colours and shapes repeat.
