“This set has plenty: working legs, tools, a cool minifigure, an awesome new (at the time it was a new part) drill, cockpit and windshield, great details, and easy to use parts (which is good for the creative builder). The set is also faithful to the game, which adds the... More collector's touch to it. Also, the parts can be easily reused to build just about anything!”

“The Granite Grinder (4940) may suffer from the large, simplified parts typical of late-90s Rock Raiders sets, but it still manages to stand out. While its bulk comes from a few oversized elements, the chrome drill and unique mech-like design give it a distinct, Battletech-inspired appeal.”
