How soon can you get a few pictures of this set up?

How powerful is the force applied to the sleds in the tubes? Can the
transport modules for them transport just a small amount or can you have
cargo as well?

I think you mean answer by replying. ;-)
I'm pretty sure people would like a more detailed review of the set.
Pictures would be great!! I'm wondering what other uses can be found for
the tube system, it sounds like a lot of fun anyway.
Also, if I read that picture of the set right, there is a switchbox/junction
piece for the tubes? Would be interesting to see what motorizing it would
do, with mindstorms, motors/gears, or pneumatics.
