That is INCREDIBLE! I love that way that each giant piece is a separate part. The giant "mini"fig alone would be great. Combined with the buggy, it's just awesome. (22 years ago, 20-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Although I initially thought lime green had no use whatsoever, it looks perfect on a sporty bike like this. It's still enourmous for a Technic fig, but looks a little more to scale than a minifig on a turbocycle.
