| | | | | | (...) I like the dark grey wheel hubs, but apart from that it didn't have that many interesting parts. If there are any of the specific parts included you need, or if you are a Slizer fan, I would suggest picking it up. Otherwise, I don't see that (...)

| | | | | (...) I went and bought one, to check it out. Basically, the top surface of the chassis is the size of a 2x6 brick, with studs, except for the center 4 studs. The driver sits where those center studs would be. The top part of the racer is made of (...) (23 years ago, 3-Jan-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.technic)

| | | | | | [dropped lugnet.technic] (...) They're System studs. So these Racers are pretty small, even for LEGO. The hood and trunk (bonnet and boot?) pieces are slightly shorter than a regular brick, the driver piece is about as high as 2 bricks. All three (...) (23 years ago, 5-Jan-01, to lugnet.general)

| | | | | Well as part of my "must get at least one of every Slizer" obsession :) I have gotten at least one of every roborider and I must say that my dad likes them better than me.
