This is the masterpiece of this theme, coming in at 12-1/16th" long with the flaps open, and standing 7-1/4" tall when piloted. Ironically, while it does use one RoboRider head and one Throwbot foot, there aren't any original Bionicle pieces (...)

Hi all, I just bought a MISB 8445 yellow indy car from 1999 and ALL wheel rims are poorly aligned. (ie they wobble and shake a lot when spun on an axle). It's definitely the wheels that are bad, not the tyres. I went to brickset.com and there's also (...) (21 years ago, 25-May-03, to lugnet.technic)
