LEGO Technic (Sllizer) - Millennium Slizer Review
This is a fun set to have and a fun set to play with as well. The build is a lot of fun and we also get a few stickers to put on. This Technic (Slizer) set comes with a slizer figure and a motorcycle which are very easy to maneuver as well. The figure has a gear in the middle which can be used to move the head and the arms up and down. Both arms are able to shoot the discs as well and the figure can fit on the motorcycle very easily as well. The steering wheel of the motorcycle can sviwel as well and on each side you can put the discs which come with this set. As I told you in the beginning: It's a cool set to have - even for pieces which you can use for future MOC's (My Own Creations) and/or brickfilms for sure.
All in all this set is an great set and I would HIGHLY recommend you to get this. You can find this set on eBay, BrickLink and Amazon for sure. Here is the link where you can check out the full gallery I made for this set on my website: http://www.klokriecher.de

Get 2
Motorcycle: Well, it's a motorcycle. Its got two wide tires, and it's also very bulky. Sadly, though when put Millenium on it prevents the front from spinning, so it can't turn. It can also hold oth disks on the back of the bike.
Millenium: Not very original. The wings are the most eye-catching part about him, but there isn't much.
Titan. Pretty decent. The wheel feet are very unique, and I love 'em. Though his upper legs are kinda small compared to them. The gear function is in his mid-section and uses that wonderful small gear. His chest is made of two feet of a regular Slizer set. He also has wings on the back. And he's got 2 disk throwing arms. His head doesn't have much articulation, just wobbles side to side. Again a slightly unsymmetrical faceplate. One thing I don't understand: Why does he have those horns?
Very great. My hands are tired from typing reviews so I'll leave you with this: Get him.0 out of 0 people thought this review was helpful.
The rider throwbot
This is a cool throwbot, perhaps the best. It was included with another box on another countries, perhaps another model with the same pieces, riding a motorcycle. In the form of this box, it looks like taller than the smaller throwbots, but no taller than blaster, another boxed throwbot. Some features were included on this millennium slizer, like the gold head(it don't shine very)and the wheels, that were used too to make a motorcycle as throwbot. The arms that can launch discs are too included. I had wanted for it when a little child, but now i can't find it, this is more smaller than the newer bionicle, but still great. The red parts were included too in the throwbot version, to make a motorcycle, and with it, the figure was smaller. But small with a motorcycle or great without a motorcycle, all still awesome, i rate it 5/5.

A Must Have 2 Of!
Firstly I want to give some background for the newer LEGO fans. The Slizers or (Throw Bots) were the pioneers in what was to be a long line of robot looking models. At first glance they look strange, but I grew to really like them allot. Small, with thin limbs, but the joints that held tight, to today and took a good thrashing.
Second I wish to give some background into the story. Their were eight Slizers to start with inhabiting the Slizer planet. On new year's eve a meteor hit the Slizer planet. The collision was so powerful that half the planet was blown to pieces. Out of the ashes four new Slizer mutants were born. The four tried to take control of the planet but four of the original Slizers survived (8500, 8501, 8502 and 8503) and they started to battle. This is a word for word snippet released by LEGO. So new Slizers or mutations of the old four left unclear, but still really cool to play with.
This particular model is Millennium and he is by far my favorite. He is one of the best robots LEGO have ever released. He has two really cool forms which is why you need two. One is a standard size Slizer that rides a wicked as motorbike. The other is a giant super sized Slizer. This model also had an alter ego, to introduce the millennium idea into LEGO and children. His main enemy that is not a Slizer is a green fungus/slime based thing, all over the city domain. I believe it was the millennium bug and he was to destroy it.
In either form both of his arms are disk launchers, which only two Slizers have and Blaster has two on one arm, but with Judge gone it makes him special. His face is also unique as it is symmetrical, unlike the original ones and bares no resemblance to any other. His colors are gray and black but also having red and a golden head piece. He comes with only 1 disk, a golden one with nine power lights, the most powerful disk made. Only available with this set.
In super form he looks a bit off center with his legs, if you follow the book. I found simply turning the hip socket 90 degrees, the straightening up the leg legs, he becomes a bit taller and allot straighter, making him look allot better. He also has some form of wings, not that i think they do much. His legs look bulk as and are excellent for kick attacks. No only dose his body pivot on a gear system like most the Slizers, he has chest and leg armor.
In small form he is built like a normal Slizer with two throwing arms and wings or armor, I'm unsure. The color scheme is gray and black. The motorbike looks really cool, you can steer the bike as the handlebars and forks turn. Their is also a place either side of the back tire for a throwing disk and it clips in quite nicely. The bike is red and black. This model dose not have a fusion like all the rest, but I feel he is too powerful to fuse and dose he need to?
Overall this model has no faults (If you overlook the STICKERS) but endless possibilities. It's aesthetics are great and playability by itself or with other Slizers is good too. I feel this model is a true 10/10 and really helped other robot series from this point. A must have two of for any LEGO fan or collector3 out of 3 people thought this review was helpful.
