“It isn't perfect, but if you like Power Miners and you need lime-green pieces - you should buy it.”

“The build. As my rating suggests, you will not be disappointed by the building experience. It is quite short for the size of the set, and very intriguing, most notably the engine. Overall, I would certainly recommend this set. I got it at the price of 19.99, which was well... More worth it, especially because this was the only set that contained Sulfurix.”

Brickipedia
“The Claw Digger is one of the many vehicles designed by Rex. The Claw Digger has two arms, one on each side. Two knobs at the base of the arms allow you to swing the arms up and down by rotating the knobs. It uses both of them to chop through rocks in order to find the... More energy crystals. It carries a stick of dynamite and a pick-ax on the back behind the engine.”
