I didn't pick up this set yet. It only has one figure, who has a pretty
weird grin. Semi-insane... Looks like a lot more BURP-heavy.


A final amusing side note:

All of these Rock Raider figures talk in bad Australian accents.

I found the same three sets at my local TRU.  Unfortunately you are correct
about 4970 Chrome Crusher.  The set seems to be far too juniorized.  The main
base of the vehicle is a large plate that has bricks with side pegs for the
four wheels permanently molded into one piece.

I'm curious about the rest of the body. It looks like it has some
inverse slopes on the side above the wheels. Are these individual
inverse slope bricks, or another mega piece?
