Year Released
2008. Debuted in Set 8632 Mission 2: Swamp Raid. This era marked a shift toward highly detailed original IP character designs and cinematic play themes.
Rarity
Uncommon. While not a limited release, she only appeared in one retail set and one polybag, making her less common than generic henchmen but readily available on second-hand markets.
Head
Light Flesh skin tone with thin black eyebrows, a small mouth, and a distinctive 'comms' headset printed on the left cheek. Features center-parted blonde hair (part 59910).
Torso
Dark Blue torso with 'A' logo (Agents insignia) on a circular silver background. Features lime green and white geometric tactical accents with back printing showing the continuation of the tactical vest.
Legs
Plain Blue legs (Standard 3601 mold) without printing. The hip piece color matches the blue legs.
Accessories
Typically comes with a black standard pistol/handgun or a black sniper rifle depending on the set context. The figure in the image is holding a black handgun.
Color Scheme
A palette of Dark Blue, Blue, and Lime Green accents with a bright blonde hairpiece. This matches the 'good guy' tech-hero aesthetic of the 2008 Agents line.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing for 2008 standards. Features torso printing on both front and back, and a specific facial print with a microphone. No leg or arm printing.
Variants
There is only one official version of Agent Trace (agt015). However, other female agents in future Agents themes (like Ultra Agents) serve as spiritual successors.
Condition Notes
Pay close attention to 'torso cracks' under the arms, a common issue for this era. The blonde hair piece is prone to nicks on the tips using the soft plastic mold of the time.
Estimated Value
Used: $4.00 - $7.00 USD. New (extracted): $10.00 - $15.00 USD. Value is driven more by nostalgia than extreme rarity.
Price (New)
She appeared in set 8632 which retailed for $9.99 USD in 2008 ($0.11 per piece), providing high value for a licensed-quality original character.
Compatible Sets
8632 Mission 2: Swamp Raid (2008), 8967 Gold Tooth's Getaway (2009 - Polybag/Small Set variant).
Character Background
Agent Trace is the intelligence and reconnaissance expert of the LEGO Agents team. She is known for her tactical skills and expert aim, often working alongside Agent Fuse and Agent Chase.
Design Notes
The Agents theme was one of the first to move away from generic yellow skin for non-licensed themes, opting for light flesh tones to give it a more 'action movie' feel.
Similar Minifigures
Agent Chase (agt001), Agent Fuse (agt002), Agent Charge (agt004), and various Ultra Agents characters from the 2014 reboot.
Collectibility
Moderate. High for collectors of 'Vintage' 2000s original themes. It's a key figure for anyone looking to complete the original Agents team roster.
History
Agents (2008) succeeded the Alpha Team theme and preceded Ultra Agents. This figure represents the peak of mid-2000s LEGO action aesthetics.
Interesting Facts
The 'A' logo on her chest is a direct precursor to the style of logos used in later themes like Hero Factory or Galaxy Squad. She was one of the first female 'action' leads in a non-licensed LEGO theme.
Display Suggestions
Display alongside the 8632 Swamp Boat or in a dedicated 'Agents of LEGO' lineup. Looks best under cool white LED lighting to highlight the lime green accents.
Modification Potential
The head is excellent for custom 'Secret Agent' or 'Special Ops' minifigures. The torso is highly compatible with City or Space-themed MOCs requiring a uniform look.
Overall Assessment
A solid, nostalgic figure from a beloved era of LEGO. While not highly valuable, it is an essential piece of LEGO's transition into modern character-driven original IP.
