From the Manufacturer
The rugged Thunder Driller is the most important vehicle on the Power Miners team. With its massive double-geared, auto-rotating planetary drill, it tunnels through solid stone to reach deep underground caverns and hidden rock monster hives. As long as its magma-core engine is fueled up and its huge spiked wheels keep turning, the Thunder Driller’s powerful dual-direction drill never stops spinning.
My 7 year old son loves the driller. LOVES! I believe his best friend said it best when he saw it: "Oh, wow, this is SWEEEEET!" It stays together very well, is durable, and lives up to the high quality that LEGO always offers. The crystal rock monsters that come with it are a huge hit as well. He's now mixing this in with his Aqua Raiders sets to create a whole new world of adventure. My son is the first of his friends to get any of the Power Miners sets, and now they all want them. I'm sure he'll get more of them for his birthday in a few months.
Thunder Driller
This Lego set is very durable and lots of fun. Here are a few pros and cons: Pros- the drill spins in opposite directions at the same time. Stickers were very easy to put on. Two of the stickers feel rough to make it seem like dirt is really on the vehicle. Comes with a Firox rock monster figure who is orange. I really like the green/orange color scheme. Also comes with dynamite which I have never had in any other Lego set. Cons- Drill sometimes falls apart because the stick holding it together is short. They made the vehicle look bigger on the box than in real life. That about sums it up. Overall: Good! (This review dictated to me by my almost 11 yr. old son)
son loves it
I got this for my son who is almost 10 and he just loves it. when it arrived he immediately put it together with no help and was so proud of his accomplishments afterwards. I would much rather purchase this type of toy rather then a video game. He has many Lego's and loves them all and I love when he spends his time building and creating.
