“The vehicle has a large white propeller on the front, and seems to be powered by two side-mounted engines. There are wings on the right and left sides, and a small wing on the rear of the vehicle. It also has two wheels near the front of the vehicle, indicating that it could... More travel on the ground as well as fly.”

“The way you build this set and the way it works after put together correctly is awesome. The wings flap up and down when you roll it across the floor. Time Cruisers theme didn't really appeal to me, it was if LEGO didn't know what to do, so they threw together alot of... More different color bricks and made some very strange contraptions. I got it just to have one from the "theme" and was really impressed. I tried to find others with appeal and stuck to this one. I recommend it if you come across one.”
