The Roboriders are an updated version of the Throwbots without the useless disk arm. The way they are set apart for the throwbots is their 'disks' are random, and they are all on wheels. They also manage to introduce two new colors in the process: (...) (24 years ago, 25-Jun-00, to lugnet.reviews)

This set sounds just about perfect. Oh the wonder if I could only own one. But, alas, I need a car, and have no job as of yet. So I must wait (not many 16 year olds find that kind of money in their couch). Unless some generous soul would like to (...) (24 years ago, 24-Jun-00, to lugnet.reviews, lugnet.starwars)

This is a great set, and my new favorite Lego set. It's not juniorized at all, looks really sharp from both a design and color standpoint, and is just overall a great model. The wings fold up, there is a little storage spot in the back, and the set (...) (24 years ago, 11-Jun-00, to lugnet.reviews)

(...) Yup the vehicles have pincers on the front that work with a simple mechanism in the back that you pull to open the claw and a rubber band closes the claw after release. There are no instructions on how to play in the box but I think it is (...) (25 years ago, 27-May-00, to lugnet.reviews, lugnet.town, lugnet.general)

Thanks for the review. It certainly looks like a fun set with interesting parts. I wonder how you can play with the set, though? I suppose the vehicles can grip the ball? Fredrik (25 years ago, 27-May-00, to lugnet.reviews, lugnet.town, lugnet.general)
