Digging Deep With Lego Power Miners

Deep underground the race is on to gather-up crystals. However, this not an endeavor to acquire material wealth but a mission to save the Earth.

A geologist called Brains, famous in among Lego-kind, has been studying a species of rock monsters who thrive by feeding upon the crystal embedded in deep rocks.

Brains has discovered that there are five different colours of rock monster, each of which have different characteristics. I hope the different coloured monsters are not attributed with being lazy, thick or mean with money as their discernible traits.

A team of miners and engineers has been assembled to form the Power Miners. Doc, Rex and Duke have been enlisted to drive the machines Brains has invented to get the crystals before the rock monsters do. Thus stopping the rock monsters rise in strength and therefore saving the world.

Sharp Lego enthusiasts amongst the readership will noticed the rather strikingly similar the idea of Power Miners is to a previous Lego range called Rock Raiders; you may even recognise a few components that were originally unique to the earlier range. However, it does not detract from what it a fun and exciting new range from Lego.
