“This set is a great parts pack. At first glance I didn't know what the SP3 hoverbike was made out of and then learned it was the back part of the Quad Off Roader used in the City theme. I have a few of this part without the matching front part and now have a use for them as... More they can be added to a SP3 or space MOC.”

“Included are the minifigures Squidman and a Space Police III Officer, along with a police vehicle and a piece representing 100 units of currency. The Space Police Raptor is much like a hovering speeder.”
