Like every other review of this set I don't know why they didn't give enough bricks to fill up the hole in the back of this litte sub. Solution was simple go to your extra pieces and fill it and keep it with the set(duh). Good diver and the propeller is cool, at the time the green flip up window was a must have. Not a bad set and it was under 5 US dollars - so pick it up and add a few pieces.

This is a prety good set. It's cool how the propellor and flipper holders are mounted, but This set has one major flaw: that big (but not too big) hole in the back. And what is that gray piece on top with the hole in it supposed to be, A camara?

I have to say this was one of my favorite sets as a kid. I have the complete sub and the instructions and just recently found the minifig WITH his diving gear. The black piece that can strangely fit an octogonal dome was new for 1998. I don't like the big hole (actually, it's not that big) in the back that would cause water to rush in when the sub is hundreds of feet deep in water, but it's lego.

Set #6110 Solo Sub: Welcome to the Hydronauts, your mission should you choose to accept it, is to gather the energy crystals before the nefarious Stingrays or their Aquashark allies succeed in claiming them.

This set may look cheap in the design category by the picture, but just because it was built using some oddly chosen pieces doesn't mean it was bad. The Solo Sub is a ship that looks almost as though it would be an escape craft for a much larger vessel. It is built using very few pieces and as such some might think the price wasn't very good, but I say different.

Solo Sub was perfectly priced for troop building the new Hydronauts. And the model for the sub could easily be modified or merged with larger vessels if you so chose. It also had some nice colors for the pieces. The Hydronaut Mini-Figure of course is the standard looking Hydronaut with breathing mask face print and silver chromed helmet. The torso's printing was fun to look at too.

Overall I'd have to say that although the ship's design may be considered weak by some due to the lack of any real building, since the sub mostly uses those two large pieces and a few plates and things to construct it. It is still a worthy addition to your Hydronauts/Aquazone collection and deserves a bit of attention. I'd score it higher personally, but I have to be honest, despite being a fun little troop building style set there really isn't much there for parts and things. If you still don't like it, well buy it for the Mini-Figure then, because those parts could easily be useful for some MOCing.
