Monster Truck Race Reviews
Brickset
“So far I've been impressed with the sets in this range; despite the unnecessary tenuous tie-in to the video game, the vehicles have been solid, well-built, with enough customizability built in for easy creative play. They've strayed slightly outside the mold with this set,... More adding monster trucks to the line-up, with mixed results.”

“Both sets look fun and lean into their theming really well. I like the blend of colours on the Taco Monster Truck but prefer the detailing on the Pirate Ship Monster Truck. They both feel inspired by similar designs found in the LEGO-themed racer but also LEGO City sets in... More general. It will be interesting to see how they are implemented in the game. Although the packaging states they can be played in LEGO 2KDRIVE, both vehicles aren’t currently found in the game.”
