“It's not a bad set to buy, but If you are looking for a vechile with working weapons, then I would pass. But if you are a person who loves boats, then this is a set you should get. The Orange hat is another thing that you may want to buy the set for.”

“A variety of interesting pieces. Fun vehicles with working and moving parts. Awesome and varied minifigs. And a dark green crocodile! ”

“The Backyard Blasters’ one look particularly mean, with chains, spike launcher, flames, and chainsaws to intimidate opponents. The Xtreme Daredevils had two seats right in front of the engines. There was also a crocodile, a small platform with a crane, and a little swamp... More build with the trophy and flag.”
