Maybe if they marked the 4950 (and most of the Rock Raiders) line as ages 6-8 I
wouldn't have such a problem with them. But as an overall value, these sets in
general are awful. They just don't have that much building value - my 8 year
old likes the looks, but honestly I'd much rather give him the Adventurers or
Ninja line or just go straight to action figures.
I do agree that I want to snag the Rock Raider Babe head. She'll make a great
Punk Pirate Babe. :-) I'll take a closer look at the 4910. Thanks for the
review.

| I just thought I would throw in by 2 cents worth on these 2 sets. First let me say that I do not personally own 4950 but my nephiew got it recently and I helped him put it together so I have first hand knowledge. Personally I think 4950 ( (URL) ) is (...)
