Mindstorm is, IMHO, absoulutely worth to buy. You can find it at $219 (if I
remember well) at www.legoworldshop.com. They're not cheap but accept
credit card, ship worldwide and have a very good service. You can expand your
set with any standard Lego Technic set you feel appropriate, I suppose they're
are easy to find in Germany. Motors as well are available as a standard Technic
expansion kit, and you can buy more sensors if you like always at
legoworldshop.
Have fun
