This was my very first Power Miners set, and it is pretty good.The vehicle has a red diamond on its side, and I've got no idea why it's there. But it's always nice to have something extra.The front has two orange "blade-saw" pieces, and in the middle we get a circular piece. On the back there is a wheel. Includes a red rock monster and Power Miner minifigs.It also has a few nice stickers, they've got a rough feeling if you touch them, only ever been in PM sets (so far).The double sided head of the miner fig has a scared face on a side, and a, to me, evil-like face on the other.Let's get on with the pro's and con's...PRO'S:- Red rock monster with a crystal- Double sided head- Nice looking engines on the frontCON'S:- Hard to move the vehicle around- A little bit expensive- Could have included some dynamiteOVERALL:This is a nice set for people who are getting their first Power Miners set, but not a must-have at all.
Every once in a while a small unassuming product or idea gains cult status due to its appeal. This is one such set that I absolutely love and can even be seen flying off the shelves quickly.The Good:Meltrox ( the rock monster) - I got this set for this little guy. He really oozes character and the design shows a lot of thought. Whats not to love?Vehicle + miner - Good color scheme, solid build and minifig has dual faceThe Bad:I just dun like the idea of humans mining stuff and fighting with what may be indigenous species trying to defend their home/resources. Anyway Ive figured a more peaceful storyline :) PEACE<
I got this only for the pieces, and I was rewarded.Pros:Cool minifigsCrystalsSawsGreat piecesCheapCons:Could have been a little more piecesOverall a great set to buy for pieces
this is a very good set for beginners but much to simple for the masters (I finished it in less then 2 min.) very fun to mess around with and building plan is cool pros: great building plan great for beginners great what-so-ever cons: could be a dollar or 2 less over all, a great set
This is a nice little set to play around with. The function though, is too simple and I have seen better from these priced sets. There is a rare technic piece, which is used in a cool way. The grinders come in orange here, when they usually come in gray. Meltrox is like all of the older rock monsters: arms and mouth move.pros:Interesting design.Grinders in orange.Rare technic piece.Red crystal.Cons:Function is too simple.An okay small Power Miners set, but you should get the Mine Mech along with this.
