Actually, (Me being a kid myself) I only bought some of the rock raiders sets for one reason- the minifigs. They have the coolest new heads, and the torsos make good special-ops 'figs.

I feel that the theme would have been better if they had used technic parts more in all sets, but as it stands I like it a lot. (...) (25 years ago, 22-Apr-00, to lugnet.underground)

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)

Hey, does anybody out there even care about the rock raiders? I mean the last post in this forum was three weeks ago, and he was looking for hats to make wild west items.

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)
