I care very much about the Rock Raiders. I'm in the process of building them a mega-base and adding new members to the team. Anyone who knows me knows there are two things I desire: M-tron and Rock Raiders (and mechs, but that's not a Lego theme). (...) (25 years ago, 22-Apr-00, to lugnet.underground)

(...) The cost per piece in the Rock Raiders sets is higher than for any other theme, and the number of juniorized parts and SPUDs is in general quite high. I suspect that parents balk at the former, and both AFOL and discerning JrFOL (who would (...) (25 years ago, 22-Apr-00, to lugnet.underground)

(...) True. Every set has too many specialty pieces, and they can't be easily integrated into other themes. Plus, the price:piece ratio is too expensive. I'd buy a few of the sets, IF they went on extreme clearance. Of course, that would only be for (...) (25 years ago, 22-Apr-00, to lugnet.underground, lugnet.castle)

Very rarely do people post at lugnet.underground, but here are some tips on construction. Buy the 6990 or 6991 Monorail Transport System/Base. These each have some good pieces you can start on, but are really expensive. I think you can get some on (...) (25 years ago, 21-Mar-00, to lugnet.underground)

Man, four lego sets in the last three weeks. That is a pretty big bundle for me, considering I usually only get one set per month. The 4980 Tunnel Transport is my latest one, and most expensive. It is much harder to build than the 4970 Chrome (...) (25 years ago, 12-Mar-00, to lugnet.underground)
