You all know what do do; post your opinions about this set on playability, piece selection, design, etc. Today's set is 2153 Robo Stalker. It was released in 1997 for the Roboforce subtheme. Included in its 270 elements were 2 minifigs, some basic joints, and a few printed pieces, all for a price of USD $30.00. http://guide.lugnet.com/set/?q=2153_1&v=z -------------------- Nathan Cunningham Based on a True Story Sly Piggery

You can build things out of this! Not much juniorization, but the legs look kind of bad. Other wise this set is cool, and contains a pretty fair price. Niceness.

The only complaints I have are the immobility of the legs and the cloned figures. The peices are excellent from a castle or space standpoint and the concept is very old-cheesy-bad-acting-sci-fi-moviestyle. Which I like. Must - activate - Robodisks -!

It looks so much like a remote control robot! Could you take some pictures Ethan? I've never seen one in person. Yeah, I don't buy much. --------------------

I dont really like the looks, but there are useful pieces. But then again, classic space isnt for me

The design a little weird; this robot never needed such big legs. Still, the arms were really functional, and head plain cool (resembles a fox to me, don't ask me why ). The minifigs have a great look (second only to IcePlanet2002 and the armored 'UFO' ones). Playability? I could play with this set all the morning when I was younger. Rating: Playability - 7/10 Design - 5/10 Piece Selection - 4/10 Figs/Acessories - 8/10 Overall: A fair 6/10. -------------------- Arr, I have one too!
