Guess I only have the second highest: #756734, bought via LEGO Shop At Home in mid-December 2003, as part of the RIS Kit (2.0 plus a few bags of extra parts, a remote, a capacitor for some reason, etc.) Love the product, would love it more if it (...) (22 years ago, 22-Jan-04, to lugnet.robotics)

Ever since I picked up the 7471 Mars Rover a few months ago, I thought it screamed out for an RCX modification. I saw a lot of discussion about the possibility, but didn't find where anybody had actually successfully done it. Now that BrickFest PDX (...)
