| | | (...) 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)

| | | | 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 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)

| | | | (...) Yep. Thank god they released a mini-fig pack:) Buy the RR video game and your sure to want a few of the sets. I actually like most of them, especially the base, which is just perfect for buying on clearance. One thing I was dissapointed about, (...) (24 years ago, 12-Jun-00, to lugnet.underground)

| | | | (...) Hello, I picked up the minifig pack. They are great for space recruits. The small sets offer more than the big, cause the big sets are ripoffs. Rock raiders have awesome potential. Rock raiders are like a good joke with a bad delivery. (...) (24 years ago, 13-Jun-00, to lugnet.underground)

| | | | | (...) Launch Command is sort of still going: I consider Space Port to be sort of a Launch Command II. I hate how Lego is giving up on all the classic themes, though. I didn't miss Pirates much (the eyepatched stubbled heads get annoying when you're (...) (24 years ago, 15-Jun-00, to lugnet.underground)

| | | | (...) Yeah:) Thus far I have accumulated three of the set, as well as more than a few hover scouts and rapid riders. It's a shame the big sets arn't as cool as the little ones. I do think it was very noble of them to pack a crystal in with all the (...) (24 years ago, 16-Jun-00, to lugnet.underground)
