   (...) It looks cool, yes, but I try to avoid sets with Technic figures, as I hardly ever use them.

        Re: ThrowBots elements are cool —Steve Bliss
     (...) Ah. I got this set on mark-down, so I was pretty happy. It's funny -- I can never have enough mini-figs, but more than a few technic-guys are overkill.
