As Ben Erwin has said in his reply, this set does not come with huge amount of
"plastic". However, this set includes 2 motors, 1 light sensors, 2 touch
sensors, and 1 ghost shroud. This makes it an excellent expansion set for
Mindstorms RIS.

I specially like the bumper design of its bumper car.

Unlike Lego S@H, Pitsco-Dacta charges both the shipping fee (6%, minimum $6)
and the sales tax (at least for California). Still, I think this set has
better value than the two "official" expansion sets combined.

Cheers,
