The Insectoids, to me, were not very cool. I got the 6969 Celestial Stinger for (...) (25 years ago, 21-Sep-99, to lugnet.space, lugnet.reviews, lugnet.underground)

(...) Agree wholeheartly! I have converted the biplane into a two-seater. Then I put a female skeleton (i.e., skeleton with a wig) into the front seat, to stage that gruesome scene from the English Patient. (I tried using a mummy instead of a (...)

Here are the top models (again in my opinion): 5909 - Treasure Raiders Really just a minifig pack but the biplane and car are (...) (25 years ago, 21-Sep-99, to lugnet.adventurers, lugnet.reviews)

I had only bought the 6909-Sonic Stinger but just picked up the 6919-Planetary Prowler (at a discount price) and I find myself liking the Insectoids sub-theme more than I thought I would.
