Anybody got this set?

It looks like complete crap and completely un-lego. Only 90 parts, VS

More expensive, too. Makes me want to buy Supersonic even more! (Which I'm
buying as soon as it goes on sale)

These are outdoor products, as Rob has noted.  These are water and
mud-resistant--of course you know little boys will want to run these through the
mud!.  I was lucky enough to see the prototypes at Enfield last year, but I
couldn't talk about them.  I've heard cases where LEGO employees got to test
these out, and really put them through a hard beating, trying to break them
apart...and failed... I know there are special rubber parts in them that absorb
a lot of the shock from outdoor racing.

I know that I'll be buying one!!!  These look like a lot of fun...and for once,
I can take my LEGO outside and get a little sun!!
