This is great. I was hoping that there were rock raiders fans out there. This discussion group has really picked up. It's great to see fans of a system defend the positives in their Line. This type of thing can keep a system from going belly up. I (...) (25 years ago, 26-Apr-00, to lugnet.underground)

(...) I agree the minifigs are not bad at all. I got the $3 set to get Jet (the female) and if I see the m-f pack on sale I'll be happy to get it. The big sets, tho', seem like a waste of my money (which is limited, and I'd rather see it going on (...) (25 years ago, 22-Apr-00, to lugnet.underground)

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. My little brother , on the other hand, bought the full set.. He (...) (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)

(...) 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)
