Rock Wrecker Reviews
“The minifigures, especially Geolix, are a highlight, although there's a missed opportunity for greater variety in facial expressions and an extra minifigure could enhance the value. We get the large Geolix rock monster and an average miner.”
“The LEGO set featuring Geolix excels in its dynamic play features, such as a functional net launcher and a rock-throwing mechanism, although the net launcher may experience occasional entanglements.”
