The LEGO Atlantis Shadow Snapper (8079-1) depicts a deep-sea encounter. This 245-piece set introduces the amphibious Shadow Snapper, a creature detailed with armored spikes and bristling with sharp claws and teeth. Measuring 20 cm long, the Snapper guards the depths. A Deep Salvage Crew diver pilots a combat sub, striving to retrieve the yellow Atlantis treasure key. The sub features dual flick-launching torpedoes for defense and a propeller that spins, enabling swift underwater maneuvers against the creature.
