+1 to Shark for bringing up the Technodrome.  You know, that was about the only Ninja Turtles thing I never got that I really wanted.  And now, unlike old Transformers and of course Joe I look at my Ninja Turtles and go, "Meh."

Thanks for doing an in-depth review on this awesome playset!  I've wanted to get for a while, so I'll take your advice: buy it near-complete and find the missing parts at my leisure.

There are 2 big problems with the terrordrome - but one cancels out the other.

1. The fire blasting out of the firebat would kill everyone on the upper deck, which is designed to funnel the jet exhaust directly into the workstations below. 

2. This isn't a problem though, because there is absolutely no way to get to the upper deck. No stairs, no ladder, no elevator.

What? You mean you didn't know that the Firebat was the little shuttlebus to the control deck of the Terrordrome?  :lol:
