BrickEconomy Member Review
“The Speed Sled (6943) is a compact yet enjoyable set, perfect for space-themed collections. Its fast build time is balanced by some retro, unique parts that add charm and nostalgia. The set's simplicity makes it ideal for travel, with minimal risk of losing pieces, while the cool minifigure, printed pieces, and neon elements provide a nice visual touch.”
 

About Space Insectoids

Insectoids was a LEGO Space subtheme released in 1998 that consisted of 17 sets. The Insectoids story line was based on the cybernetic Zotaxians and their droids who fled their home planet of Zotax after a war with their leader. During the escape they crash landed on the massive planet Holox, but the planet was too hostile on the surface for survival so they tunneled underground and built cities. The Zotaxians owned vehicles called Insectoids that were insect-like in appearance and were desigend to escape the underground insects.

Insectoids consists of 17 sets that ran from 1998 to 1999. As of today, 6977 Arachnoid Star Base is the most valuable Insectoids set with an estimated new/factory sealed value of $429.
