I really like the look of the off roader, cannot wait to see the power functions in action.

reminds me of a Hummer H3 or Jeep Wrangler.

So what are all of the power functions components? I see the battery box but is there also a remote control or something for the winch?

I can't wait anymore, when will be the release date in Hong Kong...Help

I look forward to own the off-roader.

I have seen a video of the off-roader somewhere on the 'net. As well as going along the truck has height changable suspension i think.

Very excited about the new linear actuators. I would love to see Lego release a powered pneumatic pump and micro motors

If you go to youtube and search for 8297 there is a video of the power functions and lights being demonstrated at toy fair 2008, go check it out.

Oh man the motors add so much $$ to the sets. Look at 8297 is 120$ with 1097 pieces where 8295 is 90$ with 1182 pieces.

I do like the light feature though.

i've bought the excavator already and its totally awesome. I actually combined it with 8292.
