Toys and Games Reviews of Lego Power Miners Crystal Sweeper (8961)
Customer Review: 5 out of 6 isnt bad
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this set mostly wanting to complete my Power Miners collection. A great, although small series with amazing price value and ease of build. This set however ruined the entire Power Miners line for me. With a price tag of about $[...] on average for under 400 pieces (factoring an average $[...] per piece for most sets) this was a huge disappointment, especially considering the rest of the entire series can be bought at less than this price. The set on its own isn't so bad. It mostly suffers from a disappointingly small sized end result, a little poor construction on its undercarriage, and a virtually pointless rock monster catapult. That not withstanding though, its a pretty decent set and worthy enough to fit in with the rest of the Power Miners line. The problem still comes back to the ridiculous overpricing of the set. Maybe this was to offset the low prices of the rest of the series, but it still only serves to hurt the line as a whole.
Description of Lego Power Miners Crystal Sweeper (8961)
Grab every crystal before the rock monsters do! Hungry rock monsters are on the loose, gobbling up crystals and causing havoc underground. Unleash the Crystal Sweeper and get them first! This massive mining vehicle spins its auto-rotating harvester wheel to collect a huge cargo of crystals and drop them into its rear-mounted bucket. Use the side-mounted laser crane to drill through rock, or deploy the motorcycle and ramp for emergency escapes and rescues. Just watch out for the monsters and their double-launching catapult!Building Sets Toys
