Good set

This set is one of the smallest Power Miners sets, but it is still an awesome set. It includes the Mine Mech, Brains, Boulderax and several accessories. The Mine Mech is a small piloted mech mostly comprised of lime green, black and grey pieces. There are five small stickers. The cockpit can open and there is room for one minifigure and has two control levers. On the sides of the cockpit are clips to hold the included pickaxe and dynamite. The legs have two ball joints each: one for the "hip", and one for the "ankle". The arms have only one ball joint, on the "shoulder", resulting in limited mobility. One arm has a spinning saw/plasma cutter, and the other has a large claw that can open and close. Brains is a common Power Miners minifigure with a blue helmet as an accessory. Boulderax and the large, green crystal are both exclusive to this set.


Pros

  • Boulderax
  • Large green crystal
  • Lots of accessories (for the size of the set)
  • Cool parts
  • Few stickers


Cons

  • Limited arm mobility
