After my shopping at Zellers, I headed over to a store called Best Value (soon to e renamed Zellers Select). Before the Dark Ages it was a KMart where I often bought Lego, but I was not sure if it would still have any as a Zellers clearance house. (...) (24 years ago, 6-Jul-00, to lugnet.reviews)

Knowing that discontinued toys were 30% off, I went to Zellers today to get some of the older LEGOs for my collection. I definately did not plan on getting the 6915 though, I didn't kow it would be there. But for some reason, I had a craving for a (...) (24 years ago, 5-Jul-00, to lugnet.reviews)

(...) Yeah, it's a pretty good model, but compared to the rest of the series, they could have done way better. (...) If you really want me to, I'd be glad to scan it and send you the images. Greg "Hall o' Monkeys" Majewski (URL) (24 years ago, 5-Jul-00, to lugnet.reviews)

This was my first set after a "dark age" of over a year. I like it. I got many parts I hadn't seen before, like a snake, two spiders, video camera, spider web, sun disc, both vegetation pieces- lots of good stuff. I don't really hate the car, or the (...) (24 years ago, 5-Jul-00, to lugnet.reviews)

(...) Cool. Don't you wish you still had it now? I had a lot of early-mid 90s stuff (no 80s though), but I dismantled my entire collection in early 1998 and had to start from scratch again in late 1999 when I got interested in Lego again! I don't (...) (24 years ago, 2-Jul-00, to lugnet.reviews)

(...) I have 6693. I was 2, and hardly remember it, just the box, and me playing with it (my older brother helped me build it). That was my first set. Probabally comparing it with that new one, the 6693 is much better. All the new one is good for is (...) (24 years ago, 2-Jul-00, to lugnet.reviews)

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.

Justin, I agree with you on the review. I like the set and it is a nice model overall.
