Roboriders could be saved for us big kids (I just turned 16, twenty years ago) with a few minor changes. 1. Split the ball joint cross axle off of the leg assembly. I can do this myself, but I hate to take a razor saw to Lego parts. The detatched (...) (25 years ago, 9-Dec-00, to lugnet.technic)

Somehow neither of these series appeal to me...maybe I'm just a bit too old (14). Although you're probably right about the fact that these are probably designed for younger builders, since my brother (who is 8) really enjoys the Throwbots. (25 years ago, 9-Dec-00, to lugnet.technic)
