The new lego site features the Rock Raiders. I was able to see some of the new thing but when I went back it say I need flash 4. Even though I have it. Anyway can anybody get to it? Can you post the info on the Characters? The orange guy is Sparks (...) (25 years ago, 16-Oct-99, to lugnet.underground)

(...) I don't imagine it's linked but there is a Rock Raiders holder page. It says "Come back in September" but then I know how easy it is to miss web deadlines, so let's not be too hard on TLG. -> (URL) paul :: (URL) (25 years ago, 11-Oct-99, to lugnet.underground)

I'll try to take things a little more gently. (...) Hey, that's a good idea. I'm (...) (25 years ago, 7-Oct-99, to lugnet.reviews, lugnet.underground)

I bought this set recently too and I liked it better than I expected. Not having seen the aqua-set with the same loading scoop mechanism it was new to me and I think it works well, especially for younger kids. The canopy hinges on mine did not pop (...)

(...) Yeah, and space (lowercase 's') can include Star Wars, but sci-fi can't, according to those in the know about the difference between sci-fi and fantasy... B-) <duck> --Todd (25 years ago, 5-Oct-99, to lugnet.loc.uk, lugnet.space, lugnet.underground, lugnet.starwars)

I would submit that perhaps their chart is "broken", and they meant to have, or at least ought to have (under Lego System): Present - Town (Past) - Castle - Adventurers (Future) (aka Space/Sci-Fi) - Space - Underground - Aquazone This sort of (...)

LEGO system underground? I´ve never heard of that, only rock raiders. Aquazone is *not* space, but Rock Raiders are in my opinion. Hey, they have ships and helmets with visors!

Oh, definitely! :) Although I'm not as pleased with RR as I'd like to be, I do find myself (a die-heard Space head since 1978) wanting to collect AZ and RR as well -- for their "space-like" futurism and beauty and cool elements for building (...)

(...) Hmm, skeptical. What exactly does it say? Even if Rock Raiders takes place on some other planet out in "space," it's not part of LEGO SYSTEM SPACE™. Rock Raiders is a theme within LEGO SYSTEM UNDERGROUND™. --Todd (25 years ago, 4-Oct-99, to lugnet.loc.uk, lugnet.space, lugnet.underground)
